When did his father die?

What was their relationship like?

Who was his father figure after his death?

What kind of men were his real father and the man or men that raised him?
 
From the Life of Muhammad on the Arab News website.

arabnews.com/?supname=prophet&supplement=1&part=1&last=11
(story of Muhammad begins on page 2)
Muhammad’s father, Abd Allah, died before he was born and he never knew him. He was raised in his early years in the desert by a bedouin woman, named Halimah and her un-named husband. He was returned to his mother in Mecca when he was 3. When he was 6, his mother died and he was left in the care of his grandfather, Abd al- Muttalib. Abd al-Muttalib died 2 years later and he was adopted by his uncle, Abu Talib. According to the article, all 3 of these men were fine upstanding men of good character.

There is a lot more on the site.

ACtually, I am one 😉 . I do not work in the field, but it is what I studied in school.

There is a hypothosis, and it seems to be a good one, that a person’s opinion on God is based on his opinion of his Father.
