That is because of his high moral and behavioral perfection, and because he was referred in the Quran as the best human example, knowing that he was the last of the prophets of God and his message was for the whole of humanity. God says in the Quran: You have indeed in the Messenger of Allah an excellent example for him who hopes in Allah and the Last Day, and who remembers Allah much (33:21). In this verse Allah instructs Muslims to follow Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) who was an embodiment of the great values and manners of the Holy Quran. He gave the best example for mankind in the human history. Many Muslim and non-Muslim writers bear witness that Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is the greatest man in the human history.
Because he is the Prophet of Islam. Allah s.w.t. sent him down upon us and made him prophet. He also has many qualities that sets a great example.
He is a role model to Muslims because he was a prophet and messenger from God who introduced them to the Quran (revealed to him by God) which outlines the guidelines of being a Muslim.
He's not. He was a pedophile who married an 8 year old and a grown man shouldn't be banging a kid.
The Prophet Muhammad (saw) was seen as an honest and honourable man by his family. He was kind to his family, just how as he was kind to his companions. There are records of his wives praising him after he passed.
Muhammad and Jesus are not similar. But the the Christan God and Muhammad are similar because Christians and Muslims believe in the same god. Jesus is mentioned in the Bible and the Qumran In the Bible he is the son of God. In the Qumran he is a prophet. So Christians and Muslims believe in the same god. They are similar in that way. Jesus and Muhammed not so much. Christians believe God created the world. Muslims believe the same. The Bible says Jesus is the son of God. The Muslims say he is a prophet. Hope this helps you understand!
No. They consider Jesus just a man. A prophet, yes, but not as good as their own prophet, Muhammad.
Neither Prophet Muhammad nor Muslims killed any infidel except when Muslims got attacked by them, then rules of war apply. However, no mention in history that Muslims (or prophet Muhammad) killed a civilian, a woman, a child, or an old man. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) forgiving nature and tolerance was very clear when he got control of the infidels of Makkah (Mecca) where he released them all at no condition although they plotted to assassinate him and they forced him to immigrate from Makkah (his birth place).
Muslims love both Muhammad and Jesus. Muslims don't believe that Jesus is God though and Muslims believe that Muhammad is just a man, not a God like how Christians believe Jesus is. Jesus is loved throughout the Muslim community and is regarded as the "messiah" but not as God. Islam teaches that God is 1 and God needs no partners
The early Muslims were being persecuted in Mecca for their beliefs. Prophet Muhammad knew Negus, the Ethiopian king, to be a wise man, and believed he would help them. Many Muslims fled to Ethiopia. However, the Meccans pursued them and tried to convince Negus not to shelter the Muslims. Negus listened to both sides, and when he heard a recitation of the Quran, he declared that no harm shall fall on any Muslims within his borders.
Muslims believe in universal brotherhood. Hazrat Mohammed said that all humans came from the same man and woman.
Yes, Muhammad is remembered as the founder and central figure of Islam. He is revered as the last prophet and messenger of God by Muslims worldwide. His teachings and actions as recorded in the Quran and Hadith continue to be followed and studied by Muslims, making him an influential figure in religious and historical contexts.
No, a prophet.Muhammad (محمد), was a man from Mecca who unified Arabia into a single religious polity under Islam. Believed by Muslims and Bahá'ís to be a messenger and prophet of God, Muhammad, with the exception of Ahmadi Muslims, almost universally considered by Muslims as the last prophet sent by God to mankind. While non-Muslims regard Muhammad to have been the founder of Islam, Muslims consider him to have restored the unaltered original monotheistic faith of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and other prophets.
To Jews, Abraham was the founding Patriarch, while Jesus and Muhammad, although good men, were not important in their faith. To Christians, Jesus was the Son of God, while Muhammad was merely a man who sought to add his views to the religion. To some fundamentalist Christians, Muhammad was an imposter. To Muslims, Abraham and Jesus were great prophets, but Muhammad was the last and greatest of the prophets.
SunnaThe best Muslim model for proper living is the the last Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah Almighty be upon him), as has been described by Almighty God in the holy Qur'an.
According to Islam, Muhammad is not a God, but a man.
