After the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) began openly calling to Islam in Mecca the Quraysh used multiple strategies to put an end to his call. This episode explores those strategies, namely the attempt to get Abu Talib to stop him. It also explores how they tried to stop the Quran from being recited and heard, and how some of the chiefs could not help but be mesmerized by its power and beauty.
