Birthplace and Childhood of Muhammad (pbuh)

 

The religion of Islam is a complete way of life that deals with religious, political, economic and social issues. Moreover, Islam did not only require them to worship only God and renounce all idols and things they worship. Rather, they prohibited consumption of interest, intoxication, fornication, gambling, and other things they thought they enjoyed. It also encouraged people to deal fairly and justly with each other, knowing that there is no difference other than piety. How can the Quraysh [the noblest tribe of the Arabs] endure being treated like slaves! Not only did they steadfastly refuse to accept Islam. Rather, they hurt him, accusing him of being insane, a sorcerer, and a liar. They accused him of something he dared not do before the arrival of Islam. They turned the ignorant populace against him, wounded him, and tortured his comrades. Abdullah b

Massoud, a close associate of the Prophet, said: "Will you take the dirt and filth and bloody entrails from someone's camel and wait for them to fall down and put it between your shoulders?" Agreeing, the Prophet (pbuh) prostrated himself and he placed the dirt between his shoulders so that the Prophet (pbuh) remained prostrate. They laughed so hard that they almost fell over each other. Someone went to a little girl named Fatima and told her what had happened. She hastily approached the Prophet (pbuh) and, after removing the dirt from his back, turned her around and cursed the Quraysh who were sitting in that session. (Bukhari #498)

Munib al-Azdi, Companion of the Prophet (pbuh) said:

I saw the messenger of God saying to people in times of ignorance: Allah, if you succeed . ”Some were spitting in his face, throwing dirt in his face, and cursing him until noon. He washed his face and hands and said: "Daughter, do not be afraid that your father will be humiliated or be poor." (Mu'jam al-Kabir # 805) Prophet (pbuh) ) was asked about some of the evil deeds done to the Prophet (pbuh) by the heathen, and he replied: Abu Bakr 13, robed around his neck, hastily approached, seized the crowd by the shoulders, pushed him away, and said: 'He has declared Allah his Lord, and from your Lord a clear sign will come to you. Since you came, will you kill people?” (Bukhari 3643)

These incidents stopped the Prophet Please refrain from calling on Islam. He preached this message to many tribes who came to Mecca for Hajj 14. Some of the people of Yathrib (a small town north of Mecca), now known as Madena, believed and promised to support and help him if he decided to migrate there. sent Mus'ab b. Umair to teach them the teachings of Islam. After all the hardships Meccan Muslims faced from their own people, God allowed them to emigrate to Medina

The people of Madena greeted them and received them in an extraordinary manner. Medina became the capital of the new Islamic State and the place where the call to Islam spread far and wide.

The Prophet (pbuh) settled there and taught the people how to recite the Qur'an and religious precepts. The people of Madena were very touched and moved by the attitude of the Prophet. They loved him more than themselves. They hastened to serve him, spending whatever he had in the path of Islam. Society was strong, people were religious and very happy. People loved each other and there was a real brotherhood among them. All were equal. Rich, noble and poor, black and white, Arab and non-Arab - they were all considered equal in the religion of God, with no distinction other than piety. After learning that, the Quraysh fought him at the Battle of Badr, the first battle in Islam. This battle was fought between two groups of unequal preparation and weaponry. The number of Muslims was 314. The Gentiles were 1000 strong. God gave victory to the Prophet (pbuh) and his companions. After this battle, a series of battles broke out between Muslims and Gentiles. Eight years later, the Prophet (pbuh) was able to raise his 10,000-man army. They went to Mecca and conquered it. Muhammad (pbuh) thereby overcame those who hurt and tortured him and his companions with all possible cruelty.

They had to flee for their lives, leaving behind their possessions and even their wealth. This year of decisive victory is called the "Year of Conquest" and praise your Lord and beg his forgiveness. [110:1-3]

After the conquest the Prophet (pbuh) gathered the people of Mecca and said to them:

"What do you think I will do to you?" You are a kind and generous brother and a kind and generous nephew!” The Prophet (pbuh) said: "Go - you are free." (Baihaqi #18055)

This amazing act of forgiveness led many to accept Islam. After that, the Prophet (pbuh) returned to Madena. After some time, the Prophet (pbuh) was going to perform the Hajj, so he left for Mecca with 114,000 Companions to perform the Hajj. This pilgrimage is known as "Hajjatul-Wadaa" or "Farewell Pilgrimage". This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never made another pilgrimage and died shortly thereafter.

The Prophet (pbuh) preached a farewell sermon on his ninth day of Dhul-Hijjah on Mount Arafat. After praising Allah, he said:

people! I don't know if I can be in you again after this year, so listen carefully. tell me

O people! Respect the lives and possessions of all Muslims as you consider this city a holy place this month and on this day. Return the goods consigned to you to their rightful owners. Don't hurt nobody, don't let nobody hurt you

Remember that you will actually meet your Lord and He will actually appreciate your deeds.Allah forbid usury. Therefore, all future interest payment obligations will be waived. However, the capital is up to you. Thou shalt not inflict injustice, nor afflict. Beware of Satan for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he could mislead you in big things, so be careful following him in small things.

O people! It is true that you have certain rights over her wife, but she also has rights over you. Remember that you have taken them to your wives only under the trust and permission of Allah.If they obey your laws, they have the right to good food and clothing. Treat your wife well and be kind to her because she is your partner and devoted helper. And it's your right not to make close friends with people you don't approve of, and never to be unfaithful.

O people! Please listen seriously. Worship Allah, perform five daily prayers, fast during the month of Ramadan, give alms, and perform pilgrimages (hajj) when available.All mankind was born of Adam, and Adam was born of clay.

Arabs are not better than non-Arabs, and non-Arabs are not better than Arabs. Or white on black and black on white. Except for piety. Know that all Muslims are brothers to all other Muslims and that Muslims are a community. There is no legitimacy in a Muslim belonging to another unless it is voluntarily and voluntarily given. So don't get yourself wrong.

Remember, one day you will appear before Allah and answer your deeds. be careful! Do not stray from the path of righteousness after I leave. O people! No prophet or messenger will come after me, no new faith will be born. For good reason. And understand the words I tell you. The Book of Allah (i.e. Quran) and My Sunnah. Everyone who listens to me should pass my words on to others. And may the last one understand my words better than those who hear them directly.

The Prophet (Peace be upon him) died at Madena on the 12th day of Rabbi al-Awal in the 11th year of the Hijra and was buried there. Muslims were shocked to learn of his death. some comrades did not believe it

Umar said: "Whoever says Muhammad is dead, I will cut off his head!" Abu Bakr turned to a Muslim and read the word of God:

Muhammad is a messenger It's nothing more than Other messengers died before him. So if he dies or is killed, will you quickly return to disbelief? But God rewards gratitude. [3:144]

When Umar heard this verse, he stopped speaking what he was saying. for he was very interested in applying God's rules. The Prophet (pbuh) died at the age of 63.

The Prophet (pbuh), before becoming a prophet he stayed in Mecca for 40 years. After he was appointed as a prophet. There he lived for another thirteen years, during which he called the people to pure monotheistic Islam. After that he moved to Madena, where he stayed for ten years. He continued to receive revelations there until the Quran and Islam were completed.
