Why was Muhammad (peace be upon him)
sent as a mercy to all mankind? God could have sent angels to this world to
tell us about His existence but then we as humans would not know how to live
and work in society in the right way. Who
would be our example and who would show us the straight path? God is all
knowing and all merciful and Mercy is one of His best traits. He sent the
Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)to us so we as humans would have a living example of a human showing us
how to live. Muhammad (pbuh) was the
most tolerant and compassionate and loving of all human beings. Because of his
beautiful relationship with God, he aspired with tremendous efforts to make
sure that everyone that he encountered or came across was met with the best
courtesy and respect. If you had the honor and pleasure of being in his company
he would make you feel as if you were the most important person in the world.
Muhammad (pbuh) was given the
most difficult task about 1400 hundred years ago and that was to share with
humanity the oneness of God. It was a time in Arabia when there was
heedlessness, ignorance, debauchery and corruption and too much time had passed
since Jesus(pbuh) had sent his message and people were morally at an all time low. At
that time God sent Muhammad (pbuh) as His mercy to mankind to show us how to
live mercifully with compassion and love. His life’s mission was to make sure
that we were told the truth so that we were not led astray. He endured almost
every kind of difficulty that a man can go through just to get the Word to us
and to save our souls from following the wrong. He lived his life in accordance
to God’s will to teach us and share with us everything he knew. His days and
nights were spent worrying and praying for his people. Will we give thanks?
Will we try to get to know him better? Will we aspire to be more like him? Will
we share his story to others? Do we know anyone who sacrifices his whole life
for others?......will be sharing more examples of his life…..stay tuned…
