The Holy Prophet was born in the year 570 CE. He received his first revelation on his prophethood from Allah swt through the Arch Angel Jibril (Gabriel) when he was 40 years old (610 CE) during one of his meditation's visits to the cave of Hira, outside Mecca.
At some point in his life Muhammad adopted the practice of meditating alone for several weeks every year in a cave called Hira near Mecca. Islamic tradition holds that during one of his visits to this Cave of Hira, the arch angel Jibril (Gabriel) appeared to him in the year 610 CE and commanded Muhammad to recite the following verses: "Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Lord and Cherisher, Who created- Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood: Proclaim! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful,- He Who taught (the use of) the pen,- Taught man that which he knew not." (Qur'an 96:1-5)

Why hazrat Muhammad did not give azan?
In my opinion, to allow people to make azan with they rhythm that is available to them and/or it is preferred the one giving azan be different than the one leading Muslims in praying. Azan means to call. Prophet Muhammad (SAWW) never gave azan because if he'd call for the prayer, every creature of the universe would gather there to pray and obey his command. Prophet Muhammad (SAWW) was sent as an apostle for the whole universe therefore, this reason is legitimate.
What is the title given to Islam's highest leaders?
Imam because Quran says prophet Ibrahim a.s. could reach to this rank after passing exams. so Imam is a higher rank than prophet. also Messenger of God Muhammad SAWW was both messenger and Imam at the same time. Imam has two meanig: one is a general word used by people about any leader so in this meaning it is given as a title by people. but another meaning is specific and is a title given by God to special people who are infallible and are representative of God and are leader of humans for religion and meeting God. word of Imam is used in Quran in different verses. for example God gives the title of Imam to prophet Ibrahim a.s. in below verse and so Imam is given to some leaders. according to Shia Islam Messenger Muhammad SAWW was an Imam and after him God selected 12 Imams and 12th of them is currently alive but at occultation and still some beleivers can meet him. the verse that says God given title of Imam to prophet Ibrahim a.s. after passing exams is this: And remember that Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands, which he fulfilled: He said: "I will make thee an Imam to the Nations." He pleaded: "And also (Imams) from my offspring!" He answered: "But My Promise is not within the reach of evil-doers." [2:124] Any prophet/messenger is not Imam and any Imam is not prophet/messenger. for each one there are requirements that after tries one can have it. there are prophet in history who were not Imam and there are Imams in history who are not prophet. _____________________________________________________- Imam or Alimam AlAkbar (Sheikh Algamea AlAzhar). However the title Imam or Alimamam AlAkbar are titled given by people but prophet and/or messenger are titles given by Allah (or God in English and same God in Christianity and Judaism). So, it is logic that prophet/messenger is of higher rank than Imam/AlImam. Any prophet/messenger is Imam to his people but not every Imam is prophet/messenger.
What was a major reason why some Muslims believed that Ali was the true successor to Muhammad?

Modern pilgrimages are just mass travel and an easy option you need to make them more demanding to go a pilgrim any good. Discuss using more than one point of view?
donot differentiate the pilgrimage as old and modern. the KAABA is same from centuries,created by prophet MUHAMMAD SAWW. the moderism is in our minds. those who actually loves MUHAMMAD SAWW AND MOLA ALI AS (the successor of MUHAMMAD SAWW) and performs pilgrimage at KAABA their faiths,spirits travels with their masses. only shia performs pilgrimage like this.
