The Prophet Muhammad's Public Platform

Abdul mupalib was the chieftain of the Quraysh. He had a public platform where he would sit every afternoon to discuss affairs with his people. The Prophet Muhammad sallam as a young boy came running and he jumped onto the platform to be next to him. His uncles pulled him back down because this is you're not supposed to go there, says ibn Sayyidhi. They sent the Prophet sallam out alone in the desert to find some lost camels so they could get more money for them.
