Prophet Muhammad (part 2)


PROPHET MUHAMMAD 2
The Arab people were invited by Muhammad to accept Islam. Some responded favorably, but most of rejected Islam. They also turned against him. In 622 A.D. Muhammad migrated to Medina. It was in the 12th year his prophethood. In Medina he was accepted as a leader an Islamic state. There he established the foundations of relation among Muslim people and between Muslim non-Muslim people in general.
The Islamic calendar began from the time of migration. Migration in Arabic is Hijrah. In Makkah he tried to establish a social life among many different people. He invited people to have a belief in one God. Muhammad continued to preach Islam. He worked with unmatched patience and great wisdom.
A short time after his death the message of Islam spread to most parts of the world. Islam contributes to world history. It also contributes to civilization and science, and development. Today, about 1,000 million Muslims all of the world accept Islam.
The Islamic religion was preached by Muhammad for 23 years. He invited us to believe in Allah and to obey him. We have to live in obedience to him alone. We know Allah, the creator, from prophet Muhammad. Muhammad is the greatest benefactor for all mankind. He taught love and brotherhood. He asked his followers to be polite and tobe kind to others. He asked us to love children and to respect elders. He taught us to help one another. He stopped people from doing harm to others. He asked Muslims to be always truthful. He practiced what he preached. He is a good example for our life. The message brought by him is the final message. There is no prophet after Muhammad. We have to follow his teaching.
