Prophet Muhammed (PBUH), is the greatest man ever to walk on the face of the earth. His achievements and contributions to humanity are immense and unparalleled. Born 1490 years ago in an ignorant and uncivilized society in Arabia, he brought about a comprehensive and nearly bloodless revolution in a short period of 23 years which continues to expand even to this day, inspiring and guiding large section of humanity across the globe. He is the final messenger of Allah, truly universal in his address and leadership. He is the perfect example, Pinnacle of humanity and benefactor of mankind. The book revealed on him, the Holy Quran, remains in its original form and his life and teachings have been preserved in authentic and exquisite detail. Quran happens to be the most widely read book today and the Prophet the most written about personality. If ever the world could unite on humanitarian principles it is only possible under the noble leadership of this great Prophet.
This unrivalled position of the Prophet of Islam has been the pride of his followers but envy of his enemies. Hence the scorn, insults and accusations heaped upon him all along history. This has become more frequent and heinous in the recent years, evoking widespread anger and condemnation.
While protests and demonstrations are an immediate and legitimate reaction, what is more important is to convey and communicate to the people at large both in word and deed the true and humanitarian teachings of the Prophet. The cobweb of misunderstandings needs to be cleared and the solution and salvation that Islam can offer to the problem riddled and ailing humanity today brought forth clearly.
