Gets The prophethood

Till the age of forty he spent a variety life without engaging in any vice. When he reached forty he spent more of his time in deep meditations. He withdrew into the mountains to meditate and pray. Often he went to the
One day a total stranger appeared before him. He said to him ‘Iqra’ meaning read or recite. Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam replied: ‘I am not a reader’ as he had not received any formal education and did not know how to read or write. Then stranger embraced him until he reached the limit of his endurance and after releasing said: ‘Iqra’. Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam‘s answer was the same as before. The stranger repeated the embrace for the third time and asked him to repeat and said;
ٱقۡرَأۡ بِٱسۡمِ رَبِّكَ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ (١) خَلَقَ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ مِنۡ عَلَقٍ (٢) ٱقۡرَأۡ وَرَبُّكَ ٱلۡأَكۡرَمُ (٣) ٱلَّذِى عَلَّمَ بِٱلۡقَلَمِ (٤) عَلَّمَ ٱلۡإِنسَـٰنَ مَا لَمۡ يَعۡلَمۡ (٥)
‘Recite in the name of your lord who created man from that which clings.
Recite; thy lord is most Beautiful, he who has taught by the pen,
Taught man what he knew not’
Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was terrified by the whole experience and suddenly fled out of the cave. When he reached his home tired and frightened, asked his wife ‘cover me, cover me in a blanket. After his fear became less his lovely wife asked him about the reason of his great anxiety and fear. Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam explained what happened. Hearing the whole story Khadeeja Radhiyallahu anha consoled him, saying. ‘Allah will not let you down because you are kind to relatives, you speak only truth you help poor, the orphan and the needy and you are an honest man’.
An old hermit who knows previous scriptures well was there. His name was Waraqat-bin- Naufal and was a relative of Khadeeja Radhiyallahu anha. Khadeeja Radhiyallahu anha consulted with him and explained what happened to his husband. Waraqat confirmed to her that the visitor was none other than the Angel Jibreel Alaihissalam who had come to Moosa Alaihissalam. He added that Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam is the messenger of Allah. Then he said worriedly. ‘Your society will drop you out, if I were alive then, I would be with you’. With great surprise Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam asked the priest. ‘Will they drop me out?’
Few days passed silently. One day holy message was revealed again.
‘O thou wrapped up
Arise and deliver warning
And thy Lord do thou magnify’
Thus Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was appointed as the Messenger of Allah. In the beginning his propagation was secret. Later he determined to announce his message publicly. One day climbing on mountain Safa, he called the Quash naming their races and tribes separately. They gathered suddenly answering his call, because they knew that ‘Al – Ameen’ would not call then without a reasonable cause, After all the people gathered, he threw a question to them ‘Do you believe if I say that a well setup army of the enemy comes towards you from behind of this mountain?’. The gathered mob suddenly replied without the lapse of a second for thought: "Certainly we shall, because you did not tell us a lie yet". After their unanimous answer Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam said: "I warn you about a great punishment that is life after death. Do worship only one god Allah. He only deserves worship. You do avoid the polytheism”. Hearing this, mob became unruly. Abu Lahab, his uncle, rebuked him saying ‘Woe on you!!! For this you called us? He started the criticism against the The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Abu Lahab's two sons Utaba and Utaib married the The prophet’s two daughters Ruqiyya and Ummu Kulthoom. They divorced them because of these events.
Most of the people hated Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and they misbehaved with him, only because of revealing the ultimate truth. Now they renamed him as madman and sorcerer.
After getting the prophethood, Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam spent thirteen years in Makkah, enduring the attacks of the inhabitants. Enemies used all types of worries against the believers. They sneered, boycotted and tried even to assassinate believers. They began to persecute Muslims by beating and torturing. Those who were weak, poor slaves were publicly tortured. The first person to die by these means was a Muslim woman by the name Ummu Ammar (the mother of Ammar bin yasir). The Muslims from well- to-do families were physically restrained in their homes with the condition that if thy resign from the new religion they will be allowed freedom of movement.
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was publicly ridiculed and humiliated, including frequent throwing of filth on him in the street and while he prayed in Ka'bah. In spite of great hardships and no apparent support, the message of Islam kept all Muslims firm in their belief. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was asked by god to be patient and to preach the message of Islam. He advised Muslims to remain patient. He sent some people to
“If Muhammad wants to be a king we are ready to make him our king. If he wants to be the richest man of the Makkah we will made him so. Or if he wants to marry a beautiful girl we are ready to give him the most beautiful girl of Makkah. But our only request is that he should stop the protest against our gods”
Had his intention a materialistic one that was a golden opportunity. But when Abu Twalib exchanged these words to the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam he replied rather strong than he proclaimed before.
‘O uncle, if they were to put the sun in my right hand and the moon in my left hand to stop, I would keep preaching until Allah would make Islam prevail or I die’
Hearing these firm and innocent words Abu Twalib said; ‘say what perceived to you. I will not spare you to them as far as I alive’ He kept his promise and became a shadow and support to the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam till he dies.
Umar Radhiyallahu anhu comes
Umar and Hamza’s embrace of Islam strengthened the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and his companions. Both were very brave and strong youths of Makkah. Umar Radhiyallahu anhu had come to cut the head of the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam. But in the way he is said that his sister herself and her husband were embraced Islam. Burning with fury he ran to them with unsheathed sword. Reaching there he asked about the holy verses of Quran and he attacked his sister and her husband but eventually he became calm and quiet hearing the enchanted word of Quran. A great change took place in his mind and he ran to the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam, not to take his head but to accept the holy message of Islam. Umer’s coming to Islam was an important turning point in the history of Islam .Till then Muslim used to pray very secretly and after his entry they publicly prayed in the Kaaba .Many people who were afraid of accepting Islam embraced Islam.
Enemies became in total confusion. They decided to double hostility against Muslims. They mercilessly tortured Muslims. Bilal Radhiyallahu anhu, a Negro Muslim slave, was tortured brutally by his master. He put Bilal Radhiyallahu anhu on the hot sand of the desert, nakedly. His hands were tied with chains. They put heavy rocks upon his stomach. But he tolerated it without any fear and shouted “Allah is one, Allah is one”. His miseries lasted till Aboobakker Radhiyallahu anhu bought him with a huge amount and released.
Social boycott
Leaders of enemies called a meeting at Kaaba to discuss the matters pertaining to Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and his followers. They decided to cut off all the connections with Abu Twalib family .They displayed a notice on Ka'bah calling that any Makkah inhabitants should not co-operate with the Abu Thalib‘s family economically and socially. Chief brain behind this plot was Abu Lahab.
Abu Twalib was not ready to surrender before this severe boycott. They transferred their stay into a valley owned by Abu Twalib. The ban was lifted. They found their secret document on the terms of ban, which they had stored in Ka'bah, was eaten by worms and all that was left were the opening words in the name of Allah
Just after social ban was lifted, the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam faced personal grief. He himself named that year as ‘the year of sorrow’. It was the death of Khadeeja Radhiyallahu anha, his beloved wife, and Abu Thalib, his uncle. Khadeeja Radhiyallahu anha was the prime assistant to his noble duty. She dedicated her health and wealth for the sake of Islam. Her memory remained in the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam’s mind, till his departure from this world. Abu Thalib’s death occurred before his recovering from the shock of Khadeeja Radhiyallahu anha’s death. Abu Twalib was very considerate of him and he sincerely loved the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam. He became happy in the raise of Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and released from his entire crisis.
A miracle journey
Allah cooled the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam with his strange experiences. He experienced two miracle journeys i.e., Isra’u and Mi’uraj. In the Isra’u Jibreel Alaihissalam took the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam from the sacred mosque near Kaaba to the farthest mosque (Al aqsa) in Jerusalem in a very short time in a latter part of the night .Here the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam met with previous prophets (Ibrahim Alaihissalam , Moosa Alaihissalam , Eesa Alaihissalam and others) and he led them in prayer . After this in the mire the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was taken up to heaven and skies to show the signs of Allah. In this miracle journey he was presented five daily prayers. He was then taken back to Makkah, the whole experience lasting a few hours of night.
Next day the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam announced what he experienced. Upon hearing this , the people of Makkah mocked at him .However , when his specific description of Jerusalem (they know that he did not visit Jerusalem earlier ) other things on the way , and the caravan that he saw on this journey including its expected arrival at Makkah turned out to be true, the ridicule of the non-believers stopped. When Aboo Bakar Radhiyallahu anhu, the favorite companion of the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam heard the event from a person he replied without a second thought “if the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam said this, it would be of course true”. After this event the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam named him as sideeque (very truthful).
Migration (Hijra)
Enemies continued their attacks and assaults. Abu Thalib's death and his non –belief in Islam stimulated the enemies. When their attacks reached at the apex stage the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam decided to go to Thaif, where he had many relatives. But unfortunately, they flatly refused him, mocked at him and severely injured him by inciting their children to throw stones at him. But even then he tolerated. Jibreel Alaihissalam visited the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam suggesting that the angels were ready to destroy the town if he would permit. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam rejected the offer and prayed for their goodness. It was the unmatched event in the world history.
Finally they decided to move from Makkah for the freedom of worship and safety of belief. He contacted with the leaders of Yathrib (Madina). They admitted to give refuge for the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and his followers. Just after getting the order from Allah, he gave permission to his followers for migration to Madina. Believers migrated to Yathrib in small groups, leaving behind their properties and homes.
The leaders of Quraish planned to kill the prophet Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam. They understood that this was the appropriate time to do it because almost all of his followers had left Makkah. They developed and idea in which one man was chosen from each of the Quraish tribes and they were to attack the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam simultaneously. Jibreel Alaihissalam informed the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam of the plan and instincted him to leave Makkah immediately, the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam surprisingly escaped from Makkah along with Aboobacker Radhiyallahu anhu in the night he was to be assassinated. They went to the cave Thour. Upon discovery of his escape, the leaders of Quraish put up a reward of one hundred camels on him dead or alive. In spite of their vigilant search Allah protected him and got arrived safely at Yathrib.
This event is known as the Hijra (migration) and the Islamic calendar begins with this event. The people of Yathrib were prosperous masses. They heartily welcomed him. They offered all helps from their part towards the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam and his followers. By renaming Yathrib as ‘Madeenathurasulaullah’ (city of messenger of Allah) they dedicated their selves to the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Later the name ‘Madina’ became popular. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam appreciated them by calling them ‘Ansar’ (assistants). Those who came from Makkah were known as Muhajirs (migrants)
Second phase of the propagation
Second phase of the propagation began at Madina. Now they got sufficient freedom of worship. Besides, inhabitants of Madina more or less completely, embraced Islam. A great revolution took place in their minds. The war between Gouse and Khazraj, two famous tribes in Madina, which started hundred years ago and still continuing , stopped because the intervention of the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam . He taught them that all are brothers and sisters. There occurred communal harmony and mutual brotherhood.
To ensure peace and tranquility the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam proposed some treaties defining terms of conduct for all Muslims and non Muslims and Arabs and Jews.
After his migration to Madina, the enemies of Islam increased their assault from all sides. They tried their best to uproot the new religion. Many conspiracies and plots occurred. They tried to influence Jews who were contracted to the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam
After the order of war from Allah they fought the battles of Badr, Uhud and many other wars to defend the attack of the enemies. From them Badr was very important. It was the first war which fought against the enemy. Muslims who consisted of three hundred thirteen men fought against one thousand enemies who were well set up and armed completely. On the Muslim part major positions were unarmed. Just before starting the war The prophet was seen prostrated and prayed to Allah ‘O Allah , if this tiny group of believers fails today , there will have none on earth who offers worship to you , help us for the existence of this religion’.
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was very active in Madina. He dealt all the matters at best.
Marriages and family life
After khadeeja’s death, the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam married a widowed woman whose husband was died and she was left completely desolate. Later he married Aisha Radhiyallahu anha, the daughter of Aboobacker Radhiyallahu anhu. Aysha Radhiyallahu anha was an extraordinary wise woman .Many teaching and sayings from the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam were got to the world from her experiences.
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam married, totally, nine women. All of the ladies, he took as his wives, were either widowed or divorced except Aysha Radhiyallahu anha. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam ‘s marriages provided security to woman who would have other wise remained unmarried , unprotected or felt humiliated .His marriages were also a means of transmitting important teachings of Islam. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam‘s wives were called ‘the mothers of believers’ .Nobody can marry them after his death. This condition put to sustain their glory till the last day. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam did justice to all of his wives. He distributed his total days among his wives. Some old wives donated their turn to Aysha Radhiyallahu anha. No considerable disputes took place among the wives .It was a satisfied family life. One day all wives together applied a memorandum before the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam, demanding more facilities to them. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam replied ‘I cannot give you sufficient livelihood. If you prefer materialistic pleasures let me spare you. Or if you prefer Allah, his messenger and the life after death, be patient’. Hearing these noble words their mind danged and they said unanimously ‘we prefer Allah and His messenger’.
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam lived almost simple and modest life. Many days had passed in his house, without any smoke in the oven. He and his family used to go without cooked meal several days at a time, relying on dates, dried bread and water. It is rare in his life the day in which he filled his belly.
He was a great ruler of a vast kingdom. But his residence, rather his hut was built of unfurnaced bricks. His bed was made of the floor of the date palms. One day some of his comrades asked him ‘let us made a mat for you?!’ The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam replied with a smile’ what relation between me and this world?! A traveler takes rest on a shadow of a tree in his way. After sometime he departs from there’. Had our modern luxurious rulers studied these lessons!
Triumphant victory of Makkah
A very systematic social setup was formed in Madina. Now it became the cradle of brotherhood and equality. It became the model to all universes. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was well aware of the enemies’ return .He decided to march to Makkah before enemies come to him. He intended to liberate Ka'bah, the house which is built for the worship of some gods, from the idol worshippers and to purify it. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam moved to Makkah with one thousand people with him. He planned a tremendous revolution over Makkah but without shedding even one drop of blood. Before entering the city he sent word to citizens of Makkah that anyone who remained in his home, or in Abusufyan‘s home or in the Ka'bah would be safe. Observers of enemies reported to their leaders that the army was in big in size so they cannot fight them. The leader of the enemy surrendered before the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam ordered the army to enter to Makah. They shouted ‘Alllahu Akbar’ (Allah is the great) they got simple and easy victory over Makkah .It was totally a revolution without blood-shedding. In the history of the world it remains unmatched. The people of Makkah expected genocide in view of their persecution and torture of Muslims for the past twenty years. While standing by the Ka'bah The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam promised clemency for the Makkah stating ‘O Quraish what do you think that I am about to do with you?’ they replied ‘good, you are a noble brother. Son of a noble brother. The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam forgave them all saying ‘I will treat you as the prophet Yusuf Alaihissalam treated his brothers. There is no reproach against you. Go your homes and you are all free’. Incredible moments!! .They shed tears of joy. They repented from mistakes and embraced Islam
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam entered Ka'bah and pointed at each idol with a stick he got in his hand and said ‘Truth has arrived and falsehood perished, for falsehood is bound to perish’ and one by one idols fell down. The Ka’bah was then cleansed by the removal of all three hundred and sixty idols, and it was restored to its unspoiled status for the worship of one true God. Proclaiming the oneness of God Bilal Radhiyallahu anhu shouted from the top of Ka'bah 'Alllahu Akbar'. After one month the prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam returned to Madina. He proposed Khathab bin Asak Radhiyallahu anhu who was embraced Islam at the time of Makkah victory as the governor of it. This technique was well paid off. Many people who were in confusion accepted Islam seeing their unique equality and concern.
Pilgrimage of The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam (Hajj)
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam reached Makkah again with one lakh followers at the tenth of Hijra. He performed his first and last complete Hajj. There he delivered a lecture to the lakhs of Muslims. This is known as his farewell speech. The lecture was a great emancipation proclamation. He touched all the important matters in his long speech. Here Islam became a complete religion and a code of life. Qur'an says ‘
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam‘s death
Two months after the pilgrimage, Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam fell ill and after several days he bid farewell from this world on Monday , twelfth of Rabeeul Awwal in the eleventh year after Hijra (June , 8, 632 /CE ) in Madina. Madina city became sadder; they could not even speak a single word. Even Umar Radhiyallahu anhu, the bravest man, became in perplexity. Hearing the news he shouted unconsciously, raising his sword ‘I will take the head of the person who says messenger of Allah died’. He ran to and fro without any control. All remained silently without knowing what to do. At this critical juncture Aboo Baker Sidheeque Radhiyallahu anhu came to the site .He displayed his maturity and rose according to the situation, controlling his grief. He stood before the prophet’s holy body with respect and kissed his forehead. Then he spoke to the mob that are in utter confusion. His words flowed out of his mouth "if anyone had worshipped Muhammad, he is dead. If any one worshipped Allah, he will remain forever!". These sharp words penetrated into Umar (R)’s heart .Unknowingly his sword fell down. Now he became calm and quite.
The prophet Sallallahu alaihi wasallam was the great model to all the world .He played many roles at the same time .He was the head of the state, chief justice, commander-in chief, arbitrator, instructor and family man. But in spite of these great roles he left nothing to be inherited except a white mule (A gift of Muqawqis), a few ammunition and a piece of land that he had made a gift during his lifetime. Among his last words is "we, the community of the prophets, are not inherited. What ever we leave is for charity"
Prophet for all humanity
(7:158) [Say, O Muhammad]: 'O men! I am Allah's Messenger to you all - of Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. There is no god but He. He grants life and deals death. Have faith then, in Allah and in His Messenger, the ummi Prophet who believes in Allah and His words; and follow him so that you may be guided aright.'
Childhood and early life
Muhammad's father, Abdullah, died almost six months before he was born. According to the tradition, soon after Muhammad's birth he was sent to live with a Bedouin family in the desert, as the desert-life was considered healthier for infants. Muhammad stayed with his foster-mother, Halimah bint Abi Dhuayb, and her husband until he was two years old. Some western scholars of Islam have rejected the historicity of this tradition. At the age of six Muhammad lost his mother Amina to illness and he became fully orphaned. He was subsequently brought up for two years under the guardianship of his paternal grandfather Abd al-Muttalib, of the Banu Hashim clan of the Quraysh tribe. When Muhammad was eight, his grandfather also died. He now came under the care of his uncle Abu Talib, the new leader of Banu Hashim. According to Watt, because of the general disregard of the guardians in taking care of weak members of the tribes in Mecca in sixth century, "Muhammad's guardians saw that he did not starve to death, but it was hard for them to do more for him, especially as the fortunes of the clan of Hashim seem to have been declining at that time."
While still in his teens, Muhammad accompanied his uncle on trading journeys to Syria gaining experience in the commercial trade, the only career open to Muhammad as an orphan. According to tradition, when Muhammad was either nine or twelve while accompanying the Meccans' caravan to Syria, he met a Christian monk or hermit named Bahira who is said to have foreseen Muhammed's career as a prophet of God.
Little is known of Muhammad during his later youth, and from the fragmentary information that is available, it is hard to separate history from legend. It is known that he became a merchant and "was involved in trade between the Indian ocean and the Mediterranean Sea." Due to his upright character he acquired the nickname "Al-Amin" (Arabic: الامين), meaning "faithful, trustworthy" and was sought out as an impartial arbitrator. His reputation attracted a proposal from Khadijah, a forty-year-old widow in 595. Muhammad consented to the marriage, which by all accounts was a happy one.
Rasool and his character
| Islam invites men to the excellent character. All Islamic documents and deeds try to establish and retain an eminent society. The prophet Muhammad(s) said, 'I am appointed to establish the perfection of excellent characters'. The prophet purified human both mentally and physically; and opened the doors of knowledge and thought, which had been shut for long years. This can be manifested when an individual examination of Islamic documents and compulsory observations is conducted. Monotheism is the foundation stone of Islam. La ila ha illallah- there is no god without Allah,- each Muslim believes so. This declaration of faith and the accordant life perpetuate one in Islam. Man is a noble creation. He was granted wisdom, beautiful structure and the ability to do what he intended to, and to select what he wished to. Man can see |
That is why man mustn't worship some thing that is inferior to him like motionless or unable to respond idols or something that has almost his character. Worship is a kind of bondage. Man should not become slave of a creation. With the contentment of bondage and adoration of a creation, man attains a noble position. It is impossible to bow before other and pawn the precious treasure - heart. This is the monotheistic idea. Thus monotheism emancipates human heart from all kinds of superstitions and from the class of exploiters. The evils which lay like spider web in the mind are rubbed out clearly.
Isn't there a kind of inferiority complex in the mind of those who dedicated their adoration in front of a stone, a peck, and the 'Nux Vomica' (common name for a tree native to the Coromandel Coast of India, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia). All rights reserved. tree's stump; and before Raman, Krishnan, Jesus and Marry; or in front of their statues, pictures and other imaginary characters ? A man like me or the picture drawn by an artist, who is a man like me or having flesh, pith, a bit cleverness like me, and the figures curved on gold or other metals or granites or marbles or trees and plants germinated and grown in the nature. Wouldn't he lose his nobility when bows head before them? Don't they think of the deserving of bowing head or dedicating worship to them?
What peculiarities are there in these things: a man, or a picture, or a tree, or an establishment? On what significance one bows head before them showing at most reverence and humility? On what respect they acquire the right to be worshiped? Is that Raman or Krishnan who created us? Has Jesus created anything? Isn't it woman who gave birth to them? Didn't they enjoy being in the state of conception, infancy, childhood, all the differences in ages, happy and unhappy incidents? Was god born as a child? Who have lived before the birth of this infants worshiped? Are there separate gods for each generation? That Sree Raman drowned himself in Sarao River and Jesus was crucified by enemies are believed. Can we regard that god will die or can we worship those who had died? All of them had humanly passion, character and qualities. In every respect they were human beings. What is the logic in worshiping a man to another? Perhaps, they were saints, scholars, or holy men. If so, we can respect them, but cannot worship.
Creator, omnipotent, knowing all, one who did not have a beginning or an end, independent, one who has his own ability and purport, all seen and hearer, one who has no death, and the such are the qualities of Allah - He is almighty. Don't worship other than Allah. All those are symbols of inability ignorance and dependence. They never deserve any sense of worship. It is foolish on the part of the crown of creation, namely man, to dedicate adoration before them. Almost all have understood that communism which rejected the exploitation on the name of religion, was a new system for exploitation on the name of religiouslessness. Remember that the communist system didn't exist for a century even in its own mother land; and priest hood and handicapped preparation against religion helped them to exist that much period.
The doctrine of monotheism created the feeling of oneness in human mind. One who believes that only Allah is real god to be adorable cannot find a place in their heart for others. Allah is almighty and kind. Only what he intended will happen. He has control over everything. Happiness, grief, scarcity, prosperity are all from the creator. The man, who believes that nobody has any partnership in such things, will be conscious of the rights of physical world. He will not be ready to accept blindly the priest, or to accept rich man without any condition, or to take into account the man made laws and rituals as to be scriptures
With attainment of this state the individual's mind will be free and grow in him the consciousness and the self respect of being a noble creation. With this attainment man can foster self existence and acquire personality. See Arabs. The people, who did not know how to read and write, considered liquor and woman as the greatest assets for life. Stealing and treachery were their habits. Robbing was the chief way of their income. The things robbed from business man were taken and used, and sold the business man in the slave market. Women were slaved and subjected to their carnal appetite and then sold. They conducted dreadful wars for silly matters.
Two clans of holy Madeena, 'Ouse and Guzraj' (elder and younger brother's descendents) quarreled on the name of a robe which caused to have a dreadful war among them. That lasted for one year, and which claimed thousands of people's lives and wealth.
The protected from all stains
It is an inevitability too; the person who engaged in the consummation of the mission should not die before completing it, especially, being last one in that series. Another fact should be read here is that; this personality
should be exempted for sin. How can be it possible to discriminate good and bad if the intellectual, who was presented to be the model to all, until the day of destruction, stained with sin!
The preceptor
The Prophet (PBH) propagated the ultimate reality, his propagation started in holy Makkah, the place that completely fledged with darkness of 'shirk' and the domination of the boldly strength. It was a tiresome effort to bring the people, who worship hundreds of gods, into an omnipotent Allah. But for the realization of which the Prophet (PBH) was appointed to.
The universe is thought provoking. Man hasn't yet completed studying it. The more he tries to understand the universe, the more the mysteries appear to be. Here man is forced to follow the almighty in which comprised every thing. This is the reason behind 99.9% people in the world became believers in one way or the other. Only thing necessary to have is a good mind to change the deep blunder committed during the search for the creator.
For constituting world humanitarianism, the creator should be a single one, not depended on another; not to beget or to be begotten; and the hear everything; everything must be under his control; he must be the sovereign and reservoir of knowledge; should keep an intimacy to the subjects; should know secret and public; should be the mastermind of the universe; should be able to construct without planning; moreover, should have all qualities of perfection. It is he Allah that all these features are assembled on him alone.
Other objects, other than Allah, that are attributed divinity, haven't even acquired any one of these qualities in the proper manner. They are not intellectuals. It is impossible to have these features for corps which have no soul. This is the truth that the Prophet (PBH) said to the community : Worship the single God; he is the ultimate truth. He will spread light in the life; will fill with glory; keep away from illusion and they will bring darkness into life.
The Prophet (PBH) emphasized on single humanitarianism and monotheism, not unknowing that the majority would turn against him, but the awareness to tell the truth even though the whole world turned their back. Only Allah is worthy to worship and I am the messenger of him. This should be made accepted. For that, should lay sound evidences. By tactful movements, the people should be attracted to it. If these two facts could be achieved, the preceptor succeeded. He walked up to every nook and cranny, which is necessary for the perfection of the noble mission.
He measured the minds of those who are to be precepted. Wit and thought of most people are different, some want proofs and documents. A loving look and merciful approach will be adequate for some others. Others' requirement may be financial help; a few is respected by giving protection. The Prophet (PBH) did all. He knows every tactics that are necessary to attract people into his part.
A financial support that will make out good effect in Islamic perception. The Prophet (PBH) would tell: I give someone a lot of money, but I would love others than him. I did so to avoid him falling into hell.
The Prophet (PBH) conducted each movement in an unforeseen manner. He utilized every occasion that might be conducive to avail anyone to the movement. When the Prophet (PBH) knew that the Jewish woman, who had thrown waste upon the Prophet (PBH), was ill, he walked up to her and consoled her. He prayed for her recovery. Through this visit a breeze of transition blew in her mind; finally she embraced Islam.The same happened in the case of the Jew who came to kill the Prophet (PBH). The man excreted in the blanket given to sleep, which the Prophet (PBH) cleaned by his own hands. The Jew who witnessed this, embraced Islam at once.
The Messenger of Almighty

Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessing of Allah be upon him) owns the unique personality, which is inevitable for a leader. To make preceptorial works effective, it is essential to have stainless personality. The preceptor must be possessed an indomitable heart and a self competency to confront anything. Allah has undertaken even the body-protection of our Prophet (PBH).The Qur'an says 'Allah will protect you from the people'. Sayyidath Aysha Siddiqha (May Allah Mercy upon her) reported that when this verse was revealed to the Prophet (PBH) abandoned all the security guards around him.
Preceptors have here a good lesson. On executing their mission Qur'an gives them spiritual courage to confront with critical junctures. Even though the entire world arrayed shoulder to shoulder against them, the awareness
of Allah's presence with them will add courage in them. This was proved in the life of the Prophet (PBH). The aborigine, who drew his sword out to kill the Prophet (PBH) in that secluded territory, couldn't kill the Prophet (PBH). The question, 'who would protect you?' now needs to take merely conventional. But the response of the Prophet (PBH) was majestic. The mesmerism created by the sound of the word Allah shivered him and his sword fell down. It was a surrender laying the weapon down. Instances of this kind have to tell a lot.
The ancestral family onward begins the personal characteristics of the Prophet (PBH). Muhammad (PBH) was born into a prestigious family where cultural deterioration not traced. The nobility of his family helped him to come down courageously. The conversation held between the King Hiraqle and Abu Sufyan has been reported in the Had�th. Even the enemy confessed the nobility of his ancestral family and his personality. (Abu Sufyan (R) embraced Islam at the triumph of Makkah).
The creation of the Prophet (PBH) was perfected with all the factors that may attract people whom they are precepting to. Besides the internal beauty the Prophet (PBH) had external too. In a Had�th reported by Bukhari(r) says: The Prophet (PBH) was of very beautiful face; it seemed that the sun floats across the lotus-like-face. The comrades were in difficulty for being unable to measure the beauty. Therefore, his peculiarities are infinite. The number of hair on his head and beard are exactly recorded. No other personality in the history of the world recorded so well, even the body structure, as the Prophet Muhammad (PBH).
In physical strength, the Prophet (PBH) would knock anyone down; even defeated the boxers. Events proving this can also be read in the Had�th. Imam Bukhari reports that Rukanah known for his rich physique, bowed before the Prophet (PBH) Calling Rukanah near, the Prophet (PBH) asked, "Will you embrace Islam, If I defeat you?" "well", Rukanah agreed; few moments of sparkling of lightning strength competition, Rukanah fell down. Suddenly stood up and resumed boxing but Rukanah fell down again. Thus he embraced Islam. It is also an evidence of the Prophet (PBH)'s physical efficiency.
Extraordinary boldness was the peculiarity of the Prophet (PBH). 'Hunain' battlefield; the war was at its peak; enemies dashed in; a moment, Muslim soldiers scattered and ran in all directions. The Prophet (PBH) discharged the role of the captain at the best; rose to the occasion; he led almost a hundred comrades. He didn't need to think for jumping into the middle of enemies. "I am the Prophet (PBH), not lie; I am the son of Abdul-Muthalib; not lie;" Through this declaration he was leading victoriously towards the indomitable strong holds of enemies, which culminated in the victory (Al-Bidaythu-Va-nnihayath 6-76).
There are some ignorant people who claim that the physical nature of the Prophet (PBH) is ordinary as that of ours. Islamic texts, definitely, don't agree this statement. His perspiration, saliva, nail and hair all were extraordinary, which can be seen in Had�th.
Jafar bin Abdillah-bin-Hakam (R) reports: During the battle of 'Yarmuk'; Khalid bin Valeed (R) had lost his cap. He ordered to conduct a search to find out that cap, but in vain. Again he ordered to find it out. That was a worn out cap. He explained the reason why he become worried about of an old cap: The Prophet (PBH) (PBH) has tonsured his head after performing the Umrah. The people thronged for getting one of his holy hairs. I made an effort over the crowd and got one. And stitched that hair in the cap. With the holy hair-stitched in the cap I cold win all the battle, which I participated (Thabarany, Majma'u zzavayid Vol: 9- Page: 582).
Simultaneously, the Prophet (PBH) shined in various fields; such as the preceptor, the ruler, the general, the teacher, the head of the family, the father, the husband and the grand father. Each face can be obtained from the history of Islam.
Allah the one and only creature
The One and Only.
14 hundred years ago, when people asked the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.a.w.), who is your Lord. The answer came in the following verse of the Holy Quran:
قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
Say: "He is Allah, the One and Only. (The Holy Quran, Surah Al-Ikhlas, Ayah 1, 112:1)
