The Lineage of Muhammad (pbuh)

He is Abul Qasim (al-Qasim's father) Muhammad, son of Abdullah, son of Abdul-Mutalib. His lineage is traced to the tribe of Adnan, son of Ishmael [the prophet of God, son of Ibrahim (Abraham)]. His mother is Wahba's daughter Amina.

The Prophet (pbuh) said: He chose the Quraysh over the other tribes of Kinana. He chose Bhanu Hashim over other Quraish families. And from Banu Hashim he chose me.” (Muslim #2276)

Thus the Prophet (pbuh) has the most noble lineage on earth. , confirmed before the Roman emperor Heraclius by Abu Sufian, the arch-enemy of Islam before he became a Muslim.

Abdullah ni Abbas, nephew of the Prophet, says that the messenger of God (peace be upon him) wrote Hercules an invitation to Islam through a letter he sent with a companion named Dihya al-Kalbi. . Dihya gave this letter to the governor of Busra, who gave it to Heraclius.

As a token of gratitude to God, Heraclius went from him to Ilya (ie Jerusalem) when God promised victory over the Persian army. When the letter of God's messenger reached Heraclius, after reading it, he said: "If any of his people (Quraish Arabs) are here to ask him about God's messenger At that time, Abu Sufyan bin Herb, during the truce made between the messengers of God and the Gentiles of Quraysh, along with some men from Quraysh who came as traders, went to Sham. (Region of Greater Syria) was in 9. Abu Sufian said:

"The messenger of Heraclius found us somewhere in Greater Syria, and he took me and my companions to Ilya, and we were made aware of the existence of Hercules. We found him crowned and seated in the royal palace by Byzantine dignitaries.

" He said to his translator, 'Ask them which of them is closely related to the man who claims to be a prophet.'

Abu Sufyan added,

"I replied, 'I am his nearest relation.' He asked, 'What degree of relationship are you with him?' I replied, 'He is my cousin,' and none of the tribe of Abd Manaf in the caravan except me." Heraclius said, "Let him come nearer." Then he ordered my companions to stand behind me close to my shoulder and said to his translator, "Tell his companions that I will ask this man about the one who claims to be a prophet. If he is lying, they should immediately contradict him."

Abu Sufyan added,

"By God! Had it not been for the shame of being called a liar by my companions, I would not have told the truth about him when he asked me. But I thought it shameful to be called a liar by my companions, so I told the truth."

“Then he said to his translator, ‘Ask him to what family he belongs.’ I replied, ‘He belongs to a noble family among us.’ He said, ‘Has any of you ever claimed the same thing? ' I replied, 'No.' He said, 'Have you ever accused him of lying before he claimed what he claimed?' I said, 'No.' He said, 'Was any of his ancestors a king?' I said, 'No.' He said, 'He is followed by the nobles. or the poor?” I replied: “The poor follow him

” He said: “Does it increase or decrease (daily)?” I replied: “They increase.” He said: “Does any of those who accept his religion feel dissatisfied and then is he renouncing his religion?" I said, "No." He said, "Is he breaking his vows?" I answered, "No, but we are now at a truce with him, and we fear that he may betray us."

Abu Sufyan added,

“Except for the last sentence, I could not say anything against him.

"Heraclius then asked, 'Have you ever had a war with him?' I answered, 'Yes.' He said, 'What was the result of your fights with him?' I answered, 'Sometimes he won and sometimes we. ' He said, 'What does he command you to do?' I said, 'He tells us to worship God alone and not to worship others along with Him, and to leave all that our forefathers worshipped. He commands us to pray, to give in love, to be chaste, to keep our promises, and to return what has been entrusted to us.'

"When I said this, Heraclius said to his translator: "Say to him: I asked you about his lineage, and your answer was that he belonged to a noble family. In fact, all the messengers came from the noblest lineage of their peoples." I then asked you if anyone else among you had made such a claim, and your answer was in the negative. If the answer had been affirmative, I would have thought that this man was following the allegations made before him.I asked him if he had ever been accused of lying, and you said no. So I thought it only natural that those who never lie to others never lie about God. if any of his ancestors were kings. Her answer was negative. If the answer was affirmative, I'd say this man wanted his ancestral kingdom back.

When I asked him whether he was rich or poor, you answered that the poor obeyed him. In fact, these are Messenger followers. I then asked if his followers were increasing or decreasing. They replied that they were gaining weight. In fact, this is the result of true faith to perfection. He was dissatisfied after accepting his religion and asked if there were any who rejected his religion. your answer was negative. In fact, it is a sign of true faith. No one will complain about it. I asked you if he ever broke his promise. you answered in the negative. And these are messengers. He never breaks his promise. When you asked if you fought him, he fought you... Really these are the messengers. They are tested and the final victory is always theirs. I then asked what he ordered you. Instead of worshiping God alone and other people with Him, you must abandon all that your ancestors worshiped, pray, speak the truth, be chaste, keep your vows, I replied that I was ordered to return the trust. These are indeed the attributes of the Prophet, and I knew [from previous writings] that they would appear, but I did not know that he was in you.

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.

what is Inferiority Complex and Self-Confidence and how to avoid it .

Inferiority Complex and Self-Confidence

The average person does not shy away from interacting with others because our lives depend on such interactions.

 Communicating with others and building healthy relationships is vital to our mental health and well-being. Naturally, when we meet people, we observe their mannerisms, body language, presentation and behavior. These observations influence our perception of man. If we like them, we will easily seek opportunities for their company.

 This may surprise the reader, but we form similar impressions and opinions about ourselves. This is called self-realization and self-esteem. We spend too much time in our own company with our thoughts. They have an indelible effect on our psyche, to the extent that mere thoughts can make us feel lonely in a crowd of thousands, or make us feel as if we are sitting in a crowd even though we are alone.

Thinking low of yourself leads to feelings of inferiority or low self-esteem. People affected by this are unhappy alone and in the company of others. People who have a positive view of themselves are considered to have self-esteem, and their thought process is the opposite of the former. A self-confident person is essentially cheerful, whether alone or with others.

 How does a feeling of inferiority take root in a person, and how does a person become self-confident? Can a person with low self-esteem ever gain self-esteem? Answering these questions is straightforward, as long as we understand this basic idea: Consider a baby taking its first steps. No matter how many times he falls or stumbles, he never gives up and eventually learns to walk. Falling does not end his resolve. This instills in him a newfound confidence, and allows him to take on more challenges in the future. This is what self-esteem consists of in its basic form.

Although this example is simple, the lesson it conveys has an admirable amount of depth. Incorporating this lesson into our lives can trigger huge positive changes. The challenge of walking for this child, we face new challenges every day. Every obstacle can be overcome and every desired goal can be achieved if we try like this child.

On the contrary, a person suffering from inferiority complex panics when faced with a challenge. He will focus on failure or the worst possible outcome, convincing himself that he is bound to fail, no matter what. He also blames these failures on others around him, gradually eroding relationships that could have helped him.

 Life is a field of trials which we have to face with determination and confidence. Problems may appear in our married life, career, health or relationship with children. This can be remedied only if a person rids himself of his sense of deprivation and solves these problems with self-confidence.

This is the only way to lead a productive life and become a productive member of society.

 Readers who feel this sense of deprivation, who feel far from what they want in life, might ask themselves after reading this article:

 What did we do wrong? Why are we always guilty? We have been treated unfairly since our childhood due to which we have reached this point today. If we were encouraged and supported, we would not have to face the criticism we do now. We would become self-confident, successful people.

 Their feelings are valid, and their objections are valid. The simplistic way in which we have discussed feelings of inferiority, self-esteem, and this natural feeling of deprivation does not reflect the true nature of these complex issues. Also, remember how destiny works and can override any plan we set in life. As much as we try to avoid them, we can suffer from diseases, whether mental or physical.

As Muslims, we must attribute all faults to ourselves. We must then actively seek ways to remedy our weaknesses and plan a path to success in whatever situation we find ourselves, breaking free from the shackles of past failures, which This can be done by listing all your past achievements. , even if a few.

 Consider where you made mistakes or suffered errors in judgment. Try to see what causes them and work hard to avoid suffering the same damage. Prepare for whatever challenges you may soon face and seek advice from experienced people around you. Learn new skills, pray for yourself, and ask others to do the same. If your desired goal is achieved, plan to involve yourself in a good work. However, an important point to remember is not to be deterred by criticism from others.

For readers gifted with self-esteem. Instead of praising yourself, you should attribute all your successes to Allah and consider them as the result of His mercy. Otherwise, you may be selfish, ungrateful, proud, or arrogant. A real increase in self-esteem will lead you to greater levels of humility.
