Muttalib ibn Abd Manaf was a prominent figure in the Quraysh tribe, the same tribe to which Prophet Muhammad belonged. Muttalib played a key role in the life of the Prophet's father, Abdullah.

After the death of Abdullah, Add Muttalib grandfather of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) took on the responsibility of caring for his grandson Muhammad. However, Abd Muttalib passed away when Muhammad was still a child. After Muttalib's death, the care of Muhammad was taken over by his uncle, Abu Talib, who was a real father of Muhammad pbuh.

Abd Muttalib's legacy and contributions to the early life of Prophet Muhammad were significant, as they shaped the Prophet's upbringing and influenced his character. The events surrounding Abd Muttalib's death are an integral part of the historical context in understanding the early life of Prophet Muhammad.
