Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH)

 If he had not been created, nothing would have happened on this earth. Among them were honesty, humility, integrity, generosity, deep faith in God, love and he was a successful statesman and justice. He is the greatest human being of all time, Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH).


It is known from history that the Prophet (PBUH) was born on the 12th of Rabi al-Awwal, 570 AD. However, birth historians have expressed differing views on the date of birth. Many people think that the Prophet (PBUH) was born on 10 Rabi al-Awwal. However, everyone agrees that the Prophet (PBUH) was born on the Monday of the month of Rabiul Awwal. However, the eminent Egyptian astronomer Mahmoud Pasha proved that he was born on April 20, 571 AD.

The Prophet's father's name was Abdullah and his mother's name was Amina. And grandfather's name was Abdul Muttalib and his uncle's name was Abu Talib.

His father Abdullah died a few months before the birth of the Prophet (PBUH). He was in Syria on business. On his way back from the business he fell ill and took refuge in a place in Medina, where he died.

When the Prophet (PBUH) was born, his grandfather Abdul Muttalib was standing in the Holy Kaaba. He was overwhelmed when he heard about the birth of the Prophet. He took the child in his arms and prayed to the Creator in the Holy Kaaba.

According to the Arab tradition, on the seventh day of his birth, Abdul Motaleb arranged for the "Aqeekah" of the Prophet (PBUH). He named the prophet of that day 'Muhammad'. Which means ‘highly acclaimed’. On the other hand, Amina, the mother of the Prophet (PBUH ), named the Prophet (PBUH) “Ahmad” after the name she received during her pregnancy. Which means "highly appreciated". His names were Ahmed and Mohammad from childhood.

After birth, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) drank breast milk for some time. According to the custom of the aristocratic families of Arabia at that time, they were looked after by Bibi Halima of the Bani Saad tribe. Bibi Halima was then a breastfed boy. Baby Muhammad drank only Halima's right breast milk. And never touched the milk of the left breast. He kept milk for his brother. That is a unique example of equality and justice.

At that time the people of the Saad dynasty were famous for speaking pure Arabic. As a result, the Prophet (PBUH) did not belong to the Saad dynasty but mastered the pure Arabic language. The physical growth of the Prophet (PBUH) was greater than that of any other child. According to customary law, he was taken back to his mother when he was two years old. At this time the epidemic spread in the city of Mecca. As a result, Halima brought the Prophet with them again on the pretext of the epidemic.

One of the characteristics of the character of the Prophet (PBUH) was to be grateful for the benefits. He remembers in every situation what he has benefited from in life. He also treated Hazrat Halima well during his lifetime. Evidence is found that Hazrat Halima (may Allah be pleased with her) converted to Islam during her lifetime. And after her husband Haris, the Prophet's prophethood, he converted to Islam.

The Prophet (PBUH) drank the breast of Hazrat Halima (may Allaah be pleased with her) until he was two years old. His character was great. His appointed time was to excrete. He never did anything outside the rules.

 The Prophet (PBUH) raised sheep and goats in his childhood. Hazrat Halima (may Allah be pleased with her) said that one day while the two brothers were walking in the field, Abdullah ran home and told his father that two men in white clothes had laid the baby Muhammad on the ground and tore his stomach. Then Halima and her husband went to the field and saw that the face of the child Muhammad was pale. Then they asked Muhammad (peace be upon him) about it and Muhammad (PBUH) told them two men dressed in white to come to him and rip his stomach out something. Then Halima and her husband went to a fortune teller with their child Mohammad. And when he saw the child Muhammad (peace be upon him) he cried out, "O Arabs, you are in great danger. You kill this child. This child will destroy your current religion. Will call you to a new religion." Upon hearing this, Hazrat Halima (may Allah be pleased with her) became angry and brought the baby Muhammad (PBUH) from there. In this way, the child Muhammad (PBUH) spent four years in the lap of Halima. He then returned to his mother (Amina).

He was able to stay with his mother Amina for only two years. The child Muhammad was then only 6 years old. She went with her infant son to visit her husband's grave in Medina.

Arriving in Medina, she visited the grave of her beloved husband. She stayed there for a month. She then left for Mecca with her infant son. Between Mecca and Medina, she suddenly fell ill and died there. Child Muhammad became an orphan. Child Muhammad returned to Makkah with his maid after burying his mother Amena there. He lost his father before he was born and his mother died when he was 6 years old. For a child, it is extremely heartbreaking. Then the responsibility of raising the orphaned child Muhammad was given to grandpa Abdul Muttalib. He loved his grandson very much. He always kept his grandson with him. When Muhammad (PBUH) was eight years old, his grandfather Abdul Muttalib passed away. Uncle Abu Talib was then given the responsibility of upbringing. With the help of his uncle, he qualified himself for various business ventures. At an early age, he learned pure Arabic. When he was 12 years old, he left for Syria on business with his uncle. On the way, they met a Christian priest. When he saw the Christian priest, the baby Muhammad, he said, "This is the Messenger of God, whom God has chosen for the whole world."He warned Abu Taleb not to take the baby Muhammad to Syria. Christians can harm her. After hearing this, Abu Taleb left Mohammad and left for Syria.

At that time in the Arab world, especially among the Quraish, it was not customary to teach education to children. As a result, Muhammad was illiterate. He did not go to any school. Although he did not have worldly education, he was recognized as the greatest stage in the world by the knowledge that was given to him by Allah.

At that time, wars were raging between different tribes and families in Arabia. Murder, crime became a daily habit of people. Considering all these circumstances, the Prophet (PBUH) formed "Hilful Fuzul". That is an organization. There were some promises that everyone had to keep. As a result, the war was reduced.

An aristocratic widow of the Quraish tribe lived in Mecca. Where there was no limit to the humiliation and misery of women, Khadija was proud of her dignity. He owned many properties. His trade was vast. Meanwhile, as word of Muhammad's character and virtues spread everywhere, Khadija could find out about him. He wanted to entrust the clown of his trade to this young man. And Khadijah entrusted her business to Muhammad (PBUH) and sent him to Syria on business. The Prophet (PBUH) returned to Makkah after trading in various Syrian cities and making huge profits. And explained the money and accounts to Khadija. Khadija was very pleased with him. Hazrat Khadija's respect for Muhammad gradually increased. At one point it turned into affection. At one point she proposed to marry Muhammad. Muhammad (PBUH) was then 25 years old and Khadija was 40 years old. Usually, it was not normal for a woman of this age to marry a young man. Since Mohammed was the strongest prudent and the greatest man. So he saw Khadija's qualities and married her. Eventually, with the permission of his uncle Abu Talib, Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH)  married Khadija (may Allah be pleased with her).


When the Prophet (PBUH) was 40 years old, he often went away from the noise and meditated. He often meditated in the uninhabited Hera Cave. Month after month he would stay in the cave in the mountains. Once he was meditating in the cave of Hera. Suddenly Hazrat Jibrail Aleh Salam came to him from invisibility and said:                                                       

                                                        "Recite, in the name of your Lord who created -
                                                        Created man from a clinging substance.
                                                         Recite, and your Lord is the Most Generous -
                                                         Who taught by the pen -
                                                         Taught man that which he knew not."

                                                                                                                         [ Surah Al-Alaq:1-5]

Then began the preaching of Islam by the Prophet (PBUH). For the first three years, he secretly preached Islam. And first of all his wife, Hazrat Khadija Radiyallahu Anhu converted to Islam. In a very short time, the influential people of the Quraish dynasty started converting to Islam. In the fourth year, he began publicly preaching Islam. As a result, the number of Muslims gradually increased. Muhammad (PBUH) had to face opposition from the Quraish at different times while preaching Islam. Even then he did not stop.



Miraj is one of the events of the life of the Holy Prophet. He went to Miraj at the age of 50 of the Holy Prophet. One night the Prophet (PBUH) was asleep. Suddenly he heard someone calling. He woke up and saw  Hazrat Jibrail Aleh Salam standing beside him. And hinted at boarding a strange vehicle. At the behest of the  Hazrat Jibrail Aleh Salam, he mounted the vehicle. Within a moment, the vehicle reached the Baitul Mukaddas with Muhammad (PBUH). The spirits of all the other prophets were present. And as the Imam of all, Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him) prayed two rak'ats Namaj in Baitul Muqaddas. Then he ascended to heaven with Hazrat Jibrail Aleh Salam. In a moment they ascended to the first heaven and met the Prophet Adam (peace be upon him) there. Thus the Prophet (PBUH) met various prophets up to the six heavens. Then he met Allah. And from there he traveled to Paradise and Hell and brought five prayers as a gift for the Ummah.
