INTRODUCTION:
The pre-Islamic Arab history has been covered in this assignment by highlighting the people's capacities and prehistoric conditions of life. Pre-Islamic Arabia is the name given to the Arab culture that predated the advent of Islam in the year 630. It was located on the Arabian Plate. Because it offers the background for how Islam developed, the study of pre-Islamic Arabia is significant. A narrative of pre-Islamic religion, particularly in Mecca and the Hejaz, has very little supporting evidence. Some directions for this religion can be found in the Qur'an and Hadith, or written down oral traditions. Islamic interpreters have developed this guidance into a coherent yet, in part or in full, contested narrative that is contested by academics.Judaism had been practiced by a large number of Arabian tribes. It is known that Christianity, particularly unconventional, probably gnostic varieties of it, was active in the area prior to the rise of Islam. Before the birth of Islam in the 610s, little is known about pre-Islamic Arabia's history. There hasn't been much archaeological research done in the Arabian Peninsula; the only native written sources are several coins and inscriptions from southern Arabia. The information that is currently available is primarily composed of written sources from other traditions (such as Egyptian, Greek, Persian, Roman, etc.) and oral traditions that were later preserved by Islamic scholars. Pre-Islamic Arabian polytheism, ancient Semitic religions (religions that predated the Abrahamic religions, which themselves also developed among ancient Semitic-speaking peoples), Abrahamic religions like Christianity, Judaism, and Mandaeism, as well as Iranian religions like Zoroastrianism and Manichaeism, were among the pre-Islamic religions practiced there.
