Q 5: Why was he called as "The Orphanage"?
When Amenah his mother was pregnant with him, his father Abdullah went into a trading trip to Bilad Al-Sham, on his returning trip he got sick in medina and died and buried there where his kins bany Al-najar from his mother side lived, after a few months Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) was born, and since that time he was known as The Orphanage.
