Abstract
When the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h.) began to preach Islam, he was subject to a great reaction by Meccan idolaters. The decision of the isolation seems to be one of the most serious of these reactions. Although it is generally called as boycott, in my view it is more appropriate to call it isolation. This decision was not only applied to the Muslim community, but also to those who were non Muslims and supported the Muslims. By this decision, the Prophet Muhammad and His close relatives were subject to isolation in an area called “the District of Abu Talib” for two-three years. Later, this event was described in deep consideration by the Muslim historians.
