The pre-Islamic period is known as Jahillyyah. It refers to the time before the Prophet Muhammad brought the message of Islam to the Arabian Peninsula. During this time, the Arab tribes had their own religious and cultural beliefs, practices, and traditions. They worshiped idols, engaged in warfare, and practiced various forms of social injustice. The term "Jahillyyah" comes from the Arabic word "jahili," which means ignorant or unaware. It reflects the idea that the people of that time were ignorant of the true message of God and were in need of guidance. When Islam emerged, it challenged the beliefs and practices of the Jahillyyah period and sought to bring the Arabs closer to God through monotheism, justice, and moral values.
