Muhammad left Mecca to escape persecution and to spread Islam after being invited by the people of Medina in 622 CE. His migration, known as the Hijra, marked a pivotal moment for the early Muslim community, allowing them to establish a supportive environment. This event is also recognized as the starting point of the Islamic calendar.
