HISTORICALLY
The Holy Prophet Moses preceded Jesus Christ (pbuh) by some 1300 years and Muhammad (pbuh) succeeded to that high office vacated by Jesus some six centuries later.
It was the 12 of Rabi I., in the year of the Elephant, or the 29th of August 570 of the Christian Era1 that Muhammad (peace be on him), was born in the sacred city of Makkah in pagan Arabia. His people the Quraish remembered the year of his birth as the \"Era of the Elephant\", because just two months before the birth of the child Abraha al-Ashram, the Abyssinian viceroy of Yemen had attacked the sacred sanctuary at Makkah at the head of his troops riding a huge African elephant. A terrifying sight never to be erased from their memory and a still more shocking end to the invasion — the miraculous destruction of Abraha and his army as recorded in Sura Fil or the Elephant —

The good will go to heaven and the bad will be banished to hell. In the Middle Ages the people were convinced of the fact that this event would take place exactly 1000 years after the birth of Christ. This year divides the Middle Ages in the Early (500 a.C. - 1000 a.C.) and the Late Middle Ages (1000 a.C. - 1500 a.C.).
