Summary and Contents:
Topics which are discussed in the notes are given below:
- Arabia is the land of unparalleled charm and beauty, with its trackless deserts of sand dunes in the dazzling rays of the tropical sun. Its starry sky has excited the imagination of poets and travellers. It was in this land that the Rasool (P.B.U.H) was born, in the city of Makkah, which is about fifty miles from the Red Sea.
- The Arabs possessed a remarkable memory and were an eloquent people. Their eloquence and memory found expression in their poetry. Every year a fair was held for poetical competitions at Ukaz. It is narrated that Hammad said to Caliph Walid bin Yazid: "I can recite to you, for each letter of the alphabet, one hundred long poems, without taking into account short pieces, and all of that was composed exclusively by poets before the promulgation of Islam." It is no small wonder that Allah Almighty chose the Arabic language for His final dispensation and the preservation of His Word.
- In the fifth and sixth centuries, mankind stood on the verge of chaos. It seemed that the civilization which had taken four thousand years to grow had started crumbling. At this point in time, Allah Almighty raised a Rasool among themselves to lift the humanity from ignorance into the light of faith.
- The revelation of the divine message which continued for the next twenty- three years had begun, and the Rasool (P.B.U.H) had arisen to proclaim the oneness of Allah (Tauheed) and the unity of mankind. His mission was to destroy the nexus of superstition, ignorance, and lead mankind to the light of faith and divine bliss.
- Since this belief was threatening their dominance in the society, the pagan Arabs started to mount pressure on the Rasool (P.B.U.H) and his followers. They wanted them to renounce their cause and take to idol-worshipping. On one occasion, they sent a delegation to the Rasool's (P.B.U.H) kind and caring uncle, Abu Talib. They told him to restrain the Rasool () from preaching Allah Almighty's message, or face their enmity. Finding himself in a dilemma, he sent for his nephew, and explained to him the situation.
- "My dear uncle, if they put the sun in my right hand and the moon in my left, even then I shall not abandon the proclamation of the Oneness of Allah (Tauheed). I shall set up the true faith upon the earth or perish in the attempt."
- The Rasool's (P.B.U.H) uncle was so impressed with his nephew's firm determination that he replied: "Son of my brother, go thy way; none will dare touch thee. I shall never forsake thee."
- Such a thorough transformation of man and society owes to the Rasool's (P.B.U.H) deep faith in Allah Almighty, to his love for humanity, and to the nobility of his character. Indeed, his life is a perfect model to follow. In reply to a question about the life of the Rasool (P.B.U.H) Hazrat Ayesha (RA) said: "His morals and character are an embodiment of the Holy Quran."
