The life of that particular prophet was spent in an empire that bordered the middle-east from its west, not to mention even back then middle-eastern people were traveling in trading caravans outside and inside the Middle East including to the Roman Empire and the persian empire.
So the prospect of the prophet at least meeting various middle-eastern characters isn't as far fetched as one would think . Sorry for the byte sized history lesson.
