When the Magistrates of Mecca learned the great addition of strength that the new religion had received, they were filled with terror, and to free themselves from danger they resolved on the death of the innovator. But Mahomed had foreseen the difficulty. He had lost his wife Khadijah and most of his children some time before, and there was no tie that bound him to Mecca. Having secretly sent off his favourite disciples to Medina, he took the same road himself, and escaped in safety from the vigorous pursuit of the Koreish. This event is called the Hegira or "flight," and has been ever since used as an epoch by the mahomedans. It took place A.D. 622, when Mahomed was about fifty-three years of age, thirteen years after his announcing himself as a prophet, during the reign of Heraclius in Constantinople and Khosrou Parvez in Persia.
