The correct answer is C) Muhammad was convincing people that not sharing wealth is wrong.

The fact that the nobility of Mecca wanted to silence Muhammad indicates that Muhammad was convincing people that not sharing wealth is wrong.

Sharing the wealth with poor people is one the pillars of Islam. Mohammad established five pillars of Islam that every Muslim must follow, These are, the Shadda or the profession of faith. The Salad or the daily prayers. The Zakat or giving part of the wealth to those in need. Saum or fasting during the Ramadan period. And the last one, Hajj, or pilgrimage to Mecca. Every Muslim is required to make a pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in their life.
