Arabs, like me, obey their fathers. And their fathers worshiped other gods beside the Almighty Allah. Also, they thought that Muhammad wanted to dethrone their gods. So they rejected Muhammad's message.
If someone came to you, and he said, the earth is not round.... it is square.
First of all this sounds not logic to you, second you are very convinced that the earth is round and you see it as a fact (even though you never saw it , and because the "higher" people say so, you think so, and because school teaches you so, and you thinnk you have proof). this person says to you: " no it is square" and he is winning people. Would you not stand up and say that he is lying and trying to prove he is wrong??? Would you not see him as a fool????
well this is a micro-example, what Quraish did is a macro-example (they did everything to stop him, but nothing helped, Islam is still here.).

How was Mecca different from other Arab trading cities?
Mecca - The city of Mecca grew in a well-protected valley at the crossroads of two long-distance trade routes. The routes stretched north and south between Yemen and the Mediterranean, as well as east and west between the Persia Gulf and the Red Sea. Travelers quenched their thirst and watered their animals at Mecca's fresh water well.The founding of Mecca - Muslims believe that the founding and settling of Mecca is related to the story of Abraham and his son, Ishmael. According to Islamic teachings, Abraham and Ishmael built a cube-shaped shrine called the Ka'bah about 4,000 years ago. Islam teaches that Abraham was commanded to build the Ka'bah as a house of worship and a reminder of Abraham's firm belief in one God.Ka'bah - Worshipers honored the Ka'bah and over time placed idols in it for safekeeping. They honored the gods in it by performing religious rituals. Although the Arab tribes still considered themselves to be descendants of Abraham, they introduced the worship of idols to the Ka'bah. By A.D. 500, there were more than 360 different idols in and around it. There were even some Christian pictures placed there. A tradition continued of visiting the Ka'bah and walking around it.The Quraysh - The Quraysh, a local tribe, settled in Mecca sometime before A.D. 500. Their role as keepers of the Ka'bah gave them great prestige and helped them to make treaties with neighboring tribes. This ensured the safe passage of caravans during the months of pilgrimage (a journey to a sacred sight) and travel. The treaties prevented fighting and raiding during this time. By A.D. 500, Mecca had become the most successful trade center in Arabia, prospering from the flow of merchants and pilgrims.

How many tribes were there in makkah before the mageration of hazrat mohammed?
There were several tribes in Mecca at this time. Archaeology shows that the city of Mecca was first built around the year 200 C.E. According to local legends, the indigenous tribe was the Khuza'a. Other tribes that later settled in Mecca were the Quraysh, the Bakr and the Hilal. All of these tribes still lived in Mecca in Muhammad's time. Around 440, the Quraysh ousted the Khuza'a from the dominant position and gained control of the city. The Quraysh were of course Muhammad's tribe, and they were still politically powerful - the "nobility" of Mecca - when he was born in 571. The Hilal, though lacking political power, were wealthy and might be considered the "bourgeois" tribe. The Khuza'a and the Bakr were merely respectable. The Bakr supported the Quraysh, who were their patrons; but the Khuza'a harboured a lot of latent resentment, and eventually supported Muhammad against the Quraysh. Mecca was a city of immigrants, so there were a few people from nearly every tribe in Arabia. Most, though not all, of these immigrants were the poor labourers and servants of the native tribes. The other group of people who might be considered the "working class" of Mecca were the freed slaves, who usually remained attached to their former masters as "vassals" or servants. Some semi-nomadic tribes could also be found on the outskirts of the city. The lowest rung of society was the slave population. Slaves could be from any tribe or foreign country, and were often Greek, Persian or Abyssinian. N.B. There are legends, not supported by archaeology, that Mecca was founded by Abraham about 2,000 years before the Khuza'a arrived. These legends claim that Mecca was inhabited by a tribe called the Jurham, who disappeared from Mecca when the Khuza'a fought them. It may be true that the Khuza'a fought other Bedouin tribes in the generations before Mecca became a settled city.
