This great man, Muhammad (peace be upon him) was born in 570 in Mecca. His father was Abdullah who died before Muhammad (peace be upon him) was born. His mother was Amina. He lost his mother at the age of six and became fully orphaned. Then he was brought up under the care of Uncle Abu Talib. At the age of 40, in the month of Ramadan he received the first revelation from ALLAH. Three years after this event he started to preach publicly. He preached proclaiming that there is only one God and he is the God’s messenger. He asked people to surrender their whole life to that God, ALLAH and obey all the orders of that Almighty. People thought he had gone mad and tortured him in many ways to prevent him from preaching Islam. At first there were only few followers. Later on his followers increased and now Islam is one of the major religions in the world in case of numbers of its followers. There is no doubt that only Islam is the right and true religion.
The pre-Islamic Arabia was in its worst situation. People used to worship animals, fire, statues etc. There was no peace. Then Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) came as a especial blessing of Almighty and bring peace there. The history of mankind witnessed the most peaceful and graceful time, the golden age of Islam.
The Islamic Shariah is based on Quran and Sunnah. Quran is the verse of ALLAH and Sunnah is the Hadith of Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him). Sunnah is the actions and sayings of this great Prophet and Hadith is the sunnah preserved as document. He is the best one of all prophets and is the last one of all prophets. No prophet will ever come after he passed away. He has come in the world as a great blessing of Almighty upon us.
