The
Holy Prophet of Islam and Allah’s Messenger
(peace be upon him) was born on 12 Rabi-ul-Awwal
. His birth took place in Makkah on a Monday in
the house known as Dar Al-Mawlid, in the year of
the Elephant, which corresponds to 571 C.E. Both
his father, Abdullah Ibn Abdul Muttalib, and mother,
Amina Bint Wahab, were well-known individuals. The
Holy Prophet never knew his father, who had died
in the months before his birth. It was left to his
grandfather to name him Muhammad. It is incumbent
upon Muslims to know the importance of this noble
Prophet (pbuh) and to abide by the Quran, which
was revealed to him |
Rabi'ul-Awwal
is the most significant month in the Islamic history,
because humanity has been blessed in this month by the
birth of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, Sall-Allahu alayhi
wa sallam. Before the birth of the Holy Prophet, Sall-Allahu
alayhi wa sallam, not only the Arabian peninsula, but
also the so-called civilized nations of Rome and Persia
were drowned in the darkness of ignorance, superstitions,
oppression and unrest. The Holy Prophet, Sall-Allahu
alayhi wa sallam, came with the eternal truth of Tawhid
(Oneness of Allah), the only faith which provides a
firm basis for the real concepts of knowledge, equity
and peace. It was this faith which delivered humanity
from ignorance and superstitions and spread the light
of true knowledge all over the world.
