The Characteristics Of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH)

Imaam At Tirmidhi
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 225 | Size: 21 MB

Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the best role model for all humankind. Among his outstanding virtues and characteristics, he was an extraordinary husband, a perfect father, and a unique grandfather. He was also a great statesman, judge, and spiritual leader. His most distinctive quality, however, was the fact that he was a blessing to all in both word and deed. He infused justice, love, and dignity in all those around him. He spread the power of brotherhood to the extent that it became exceptional in human history. Affirming that these grand virtues were bestowed on him by Allah the Almighty and that He prepared His loyal messenger to call for the true religion, is part of one’s belief. The Qur’an describes the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as merciful and kind to the believers. Allah the Almighty says, {Now hath come unto you a Messenger from amongst yourselves: it grieves him that ye should perish: ardently anxious is he over you: to the Believers is he most kind and merciful.) (At-Tawbah 9:128

Some Of The Prophet’s Advice

The advice in this book concerns both boys and girls. The only exception is the instruction to prefer the first row in prayer, which is for men and boys. Both Arabic and English use the masculine pronoun “he” to refer to both males and females. To write “he Or she”, “his or her”, etc. is awkward. Therefore the reader should understand that the advice herein is for the parents of all -Muslim children, regardless of their sex.

Portraits From The Life Of The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

Imaam Ibn Kathir
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 121 | Size: 11 MB

Muhammad (SAW) brought to posterity, a religion of pure monotheism; he created a well-disciplined State out of the existent chaos and gave peace in place of the war of everybody against everybody else; he established a harmonious equilibrium between the spiritual and the Secular, between the mosque and the citadel; he left a new system of law, which dispensed impartial justice, in which even the head of the State was as much a subject to it as any commoner, and in which religious tolerance was so great that non-Muslim inhabitants of the Muslim state equally enjoyed complete juridical, judicial and cultural autonomy.

The Prophet Muhammad set a noble example and fully practiced all that he taught to others.

This Small Book brings to the Pages Portraits from the Life of Muhammad (May Peace and Blessings be upon Him).

The following is based on books, manuscripts, texts and actual eyewitness accounts, too numerous to mention herein, preserved in original form throughout the centuries by both Muslims and non-Muslims. Many people today are discussing Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), Who was he (PBUH) exactly? What did he (PBUH) teach? Why was he (PBUH) loved so much by some and hated so much by others? Did he (PBUH) live up to his claims? Was he (PBUH) a holy man? Was he (PBUH) a prophet of God? What is the truth about this man (PBUH) ?

First before listing the A-Z Facts about Muhammad (PBUH), let us begin with the very simple historical evidences.

Here are the facts as narrated by thousands of people, many of whom knew him personally.

Muhammad (PBUH) ibn Abdullah ibn Abdul Mutalib (Muhammad, the son of Abdullah, the son of Abdul Mutalib) was born 570 C.E. (Christian Era); died 633 C.E. Muhammad means “praised one” or “praising one”

Muhammad (PBUH) was born from the lineage of Abraham’s (Ibrahim in Arabic) peace be upon him, his oldest son was Ishmael (Ismail in Arabic), to the noble tribe of the Quraish who were the leaders of Makkah in those days.

He (PBUH) never fell into the common practice of his tribesmen to worship statues, idols or man-made “gods.”

He (PBUH) believed that God ( Allah in Arabic) was truly One God, and as such, and that God was to be worshipped alone, without any other “gods” beside Him.

The Life Of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

Abdul Waheed Khan
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 59 | Size: 2 MB

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was born into a pagan society in which every conceivable vice was practiced and very few virtues existed. As he (PBUH) grew up, he (PBUH) watched with disgust the great drama of the evil around him. He (PBUH) witnessed how the human soul was suppressed, how man was oppressing and exploiting the members of society, how the strong enslaved the poor. Through ignorance, error, superstition and outright perversity, man was debauched by evil. Tyranny reigned supreme. Man was drunk with arrogance, religious formalism and luxury. In these times ignorance, Muhammad (PBUH) grew. He (PBUH) walked upright and straight and won from the people of the Makkah the name; “The Trustworthy” who kept his word and never spoke lie. Muhammad (PBUH) was not taught formally by any man, and yet in years to come. He (PBUH) would teach the whole world such as no man has done throughout history.

The History Of Muhammad (PBUH) The Prophet And Messenger

Muhammad M.Ghali
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 174 | Size: 5 MB

To approach the stories of kings and potentates, as well as the movements and vicissitudes of tribes, nations, and masses from a proper historical perspective seems to be an unattainable objective. Something is needed more than human intelligence, empirical method, and rigid scientific criteria: and the only possible source for undefiled knowledge is through religious revelations. The History of Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) is an attempt in this regard. It gives a short account of the life of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) based on the Qur’an and authentic and reliable sources in a simple and easy language.

Muhammed (PBUH) The Natural Successor To Christ (PBUH)

Ahmed Deedat
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 74 | Size: 2 MB

Successions are of many kinds like the birthright of the “first-born” as in Jewish law. Or the ascending of the eldest son or daughter to the kingly throne. Or by election, to select a candidate by the vote of the majority. Or Theologically, an appointment by Divine Decree of God’s chosen Messengers. Like the call of Abraham, Moses, Jesus or Muhummed (May the Peace and Blessings of God be upon them all) who were appointed or “anointed” in consecration to their office.

Muhummed’s (pbuh) succession to Jesus Christ (pbuh) is multifaceted.

1. Chronologically, in history as a sequence of event in time.
2. By being Chosen by God.
3. In the fulfilment of the prophecies of his predecessors, and but not in the least…
4. By bringing the Guidance of God to perfection ‘ “For he will Guide you into all Truth.” said. Jesus Christ

In this book as well as in my other publications, I quote extensively from the Arabic Qur’ân not only for blessings or adornment. It presents a golden opportunity for my learned brethren to memorize these quotations with its meaning and to share their knowledge with others.

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) A Blessing For Mankind

International Islamic Publishing House
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 38 | Size: 1 MB

Muhammad (PBUH) (Blessings and Peace be upon him) was born in Makkah, Arabia, on Monday, 12 Rabi’ Al-Awwal (2 August C.E). His mother, Aminah was the daughter of Wahb bin Abd Al-Manaf of the Zahrah family. His father, Abdullah, was the son of Abd Al-Muttalib. His genealogy has been traced to the noble house of Isma’il, the son of Ibrahim (Abraham) (PBUH) (May Peace be upon him) in about the fortieth descent. Muhammad’s father had died before his birth and his mother died when he was about six years old making him an orphan. In accordance with the tradition of noble families of Makkah, he was taken by a foster mother, Halimah, to her village where he lived for a few years. During these years he was taken to Makkah several times to visit his mother. After the death of his mother, he was placed under the custody of his grandfather, Abd Al-Muttalib. When the grandfather died, he was under the care of his uncle, Abu Talib. By this time he used to look after sheep around Makkah and used to accompany his uncle on trade journeys to Syria.

Youth

In his youth he believed firmly in the Oneness of Allah (God)(SWT). He lived a very simple life and hated vanity and pride. He was compassionate to the poor, widows and orphans and shared their sufferings by helping them. He avoided all vices, which were commonly practiced among young people such as gambling, drinking wine, vulgarity and others. He was well-known as As-Sadiq (the truthful) and Al-Amin (the trustworthy). He was always trusted as a mediator between two conflicting parties in his homeland, Makkah.

Marriage

When he was about 25 years old, his uncle urged him to work with the caravan which belonged to a wealthy widow named Khadijah. He accepted and undertook the journey to Syria. He conducted business with such prudence and sense of duty that he returned with larger profit than usual. Khadijah was so impressed by the honest and attractive personality of Muhammad (PBUH) that she offered to marry him which Muhammad (PBUH) accepted. This marriage was a happy one. They had children. Khadijah was so far his only wife until she died at the age of 51.

Prophethood

Muhammad (PBUH) was born amidst a polytheistic (unbeliever) society. He was saddened and sick of the corrupt society around him. He often went to Hira cave in the mountain near Makkah, later known as Jabal An-nur (the mountain of Light) where he meditated and pondered over the prevailing darkness brought about by ignorance. There he often remained deep in thought in communion with the unseen yet All-Pervading God of the Universe. One night, while he was meditating in the Hira cave, the Angel Gabriel (peace be upon him) came to him. The Angel aroused him and his mighty voice reverberated in his ears. He was perplexed and did not know what to do. He was asked to read. He replied: “I cannot read!” The Angel repeated three times asking Muhammad (PBUH) to read, but he replied the same answer. Finally the Angel asked:

[Read in the name of your Lord , who created man from a clot. Read in the name of your God, the Most Bountiful, who taught by means of the pen, and taught man what he did not know.] (Qur’an 96: 1-5)
