🌍 The Origin of Islam
Islam is not a new religion; it has existed since the beginning of mankind. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the last prophet, tasked with conveying the final form of Islam, which completed Allah's universal message. In 6th-century Arabia, a polytheistic society, Prophet Muhammad was born into a merchant family and was exposed to various religious practices. Around the age of 40, he began to receive divine revelations while meditating in the cave of Hira, marking the beginning of the Quran's revelation. This event, known as the Night of Glory (Laila tul-Qadr), is considered the holiest night in Islam.
🛤️ The Hijra and the Formation of the Islamic Community
In 620 CE, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) met with delegates from Medina who accepted Islam and promised to spread it. They sought to unite Medina’s tribes under Islam. Two years later, a secret pledge of allegiance to the Prophet was made. Fearing the rise of Islam, the Quraysh tribe plotted to assassinate Muhammad, leading to his migration (Hijra) to Medina. There, he continued to receive revelations and established the first Islamic community, emphasizing Allah’s sovereignty, justice, and consultation. His leadership fostered unity and brotherhood among the believers.
🤝 The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah: A Turning Point
In 628 CE, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) had a dream of performing pilgrimage in Mecca. A 10-year truce, the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, was negotiated with the Quraysh tribe, marking a pivotal moment in Islamic history. The treaty allowed Muslims to return for pilgrimage the next year and temporarily avoided hostilities. It symbolized a moral victory, boosting Muslim morale and demonstrating Muhammad's diplomatic skills. The treaty teaches the value of patience, trust in Allah, and practical solutions to conflicts. It also united divided Arabian tribes under Islam.
📜 The Expansion of Islam and Tolerance
Under Prophet Muhammad’s leadership, Islam expanded through military victories, spreading its influence across the region. His teachings promoted tolerance for people of other faiths, allowing them to maintain their customs and laws. This inclusive approach created a thriving, diverse society that encouraged cultural and intellectual exchanges. By coexisting peacefully, Islamic society became a center for the flourishing of arts, science, and culture, further solidifying Islam’s role as a major world religion.
🕌 The Death of Prophet Muhammad and His Legacy
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) passed away in 632 CE, after establishing the five pillars of Islam: faith, prayer, charity, fasting, and pilgrimage. His teachings, collectively known as the Sunnah, continue to guide Muslims in all aspects of life. The Sunnah is second only to the Quran in Islamic law. Islam has grown to become the second-largest religion globally, with the Prophet's legacy shaping the lives of billions of people. His influence remains relevant, as his example of submission to Allah continues to inspire followers worldwide.

Prophet Muhammad's return to Mecca
in 628 CE Muhammad saw in a dream that
he along with his followers had
performed pilgrimage in Mecca he saw
this as a directive from Allah therefore
he embarked on a journey to Mecca along
with 1500 followers the quraish tribe
did not want them to enter Mecca as it
would make the meccans look weak so they
sent a messenger to Muhammad peace be
upon him to negotiate with him and sign
a 10-year truce this was called the
Treaty of hudibir named after the
location where it was signed
foreign
the turning point

time but would be allowed to enter Mecca
the following year to perform the
pilgrimage 2. the Muslims would not be
allowed to carry any weapons with them
on the pilgrimage except sheathed swords
in their bags for self-defense 3. any

moment in Islamic history for several

to perform the pilgrimage to Mecca which
was a sacred Duty for all believers but
had been denied to them for many years

the Muslims and helped to boost their
morale and confidence

allowed both sides to step back from the
brink of war and gave them an
opportunity to negotiate a peaceful
resolution to their differences thirdly

commitment to finding peaceful and
practical solutions to conflicts the

patience perseverance and Trust in
Allah's plan the Muslims had been

however they did not give up hope and
eventually their patience and
perseverance paid off at a time when

Conflict Muhammad peace be upon him's
message of monotheism and social justice
