Why is that so hard to see? Getting rid of the competition isn't exactly a novel idea. Taking over the competition's assets and territory is another thought.

They already "owned" property and already have most wealth in Mecca. Take somebody like Uthman Ibn Affan :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uthman

Quoting wikipedia :


Quote:Uthman followed the same profession as his father, and his business flourished, making him one of the richest men among the Qurayshi tribe.[4

The man could've organize armies all by himself, why would he leave Mecca ?
