Prophet Muhammad

He was troubled by the misguidance of people - worshipping other than the One God.

He was troubled by injustice.

He was troubled by poverty.

He was troubled by inhumanity.

He was troubled by oppression of the weak by the strong.

He was troubled by corruption in society.

He was troubled by the straying away from truth of the people of the Book - the Jews and Christians - who had lost the true path of God in some important ways.

It is not necessarily called "different" types of Muslims. Politely, Muslims are separated into two groups: Sunni and Sh'ia. Sunni is more conservative and more religious, and Sh'ias are religious but they are not that strict.

Al-Burāq is the horse of Muhammad (S.W.W)

Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Islam is built upon five pillars: "Testimony that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah; performing prayer, paying the Zakah, fasting the month of Ramadan, and pilgrimage to Makkah (Mecca) for those who can afford it."

If you see Islam from a historical perspective, yes. Mohammed founded Islam in Mecca. However, according to Islamic theology, Islam has existed since the Creation of the Universe and, therefore, did not start in Mecca.

Hazrat Hassan RA and Hazrat Hussein RA are Maternal grandsons of the Prophet Muhammad(saww).

Hazrat Hassan (RA) and Hazrat Hussain (RA) were the most favorite and dearest grandsons of the last Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAW). They were the sons of Hazrat Ali (RA) and Hazrat Fatima (RA), the dearest daughter of the last Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAW). They are the Kings of the Youth in the Paradise. All the Muslims, belonging to any sect, love these two Princes.

Prophet Mohammed had 12 wives. Out of which he lived only 9 years with his 11 wives. At the age of 25,he married his first wife Khadija.They lived together until he attained the age of 53. After battles conducted by Muslims for self defence many women bereaved. So he has to protect them,so he married them there was no other options for protecting them.

Two sons (Alhassan and AlHussein)

It is an abbreviation to a greeting to prophet Muhammad that is: Peace (from Allah)Be Upon Him (prophet Muhammad).

He is son of Jacob son of isaac son of Abraham. He has 11 brothers.

Muhammad did various jobs before his prophethood. He worked as a shepherd, and as a merchant. He used to rear goats and went on trading caravans as a merchant.He came from a noble family and was known as The Truthful and The Trustworthy.

The way to become a prophet is not easy. You'll have to give your soul to God. As in pray for Long hours, remember him all the time and not forgetting him for a second. If you really want to meet the Lord with all your heart, your half way there. But if you want to become a prophet for the power or in anther case want followers and to become famous. Don't even try. So just have love for God, never forget him and dont SIN. But you'll have to do this for a long time till you get there.

You mean by your question prophet Muhammad (PBUH). However, prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is a God prophet and God Messenger who was assigned by Allah (or God in English) to convey to people the Islam message that God founded, and to convey to people the holy book Quran revealed to him by God through the angel Gabriel.. Refer to question below.

No. Mohammed's primary method of teaching Islam was through Qur'anic Revelation and through performing actions in concert with the Divine Will. It was Jesus who taught through parables.

If you mean 'how many', there are 31,102 verses in the complete KJV Bible; 23,145 verses in the Old Testament and 7957 verses in the New Testament.

Islam teaches us if we make enough for our sustenance and have a lil more extra bugs, we can give this to the poor and the needy in order that they for whom the daily bread butter/dal roti is tough, they can benefit from it

its simple to calculate zakat if you live in the US like me then as per RTT news

price of gold in US as of may 2011 is 1530 USD for 1 ounce , now as per the sunni system if ur wealth is worth 7.5 grams of gold or more then zakid is compulsory on you so in order to know who qualifies for zakat and who deserves it is done via gold by most as :

converting 1 ounce into grams , 1 ounce = 30 grams so the math would be something like :

1530usd ------ 30 gms

x usd--------85 gms

so x = 1530 *85/30 = 4335 so if u make more then 4335 dollars of saving an year in America , 2.5 percent of ur annual saving has to go to zakat , so say of the 40000 dollars u saved 1000 dollars at the end of the year then ur zakat is (edit: i didnt add the fixed asset here, so by adding fixed assets it should be even less an amount then 382.5 for u to qualify, however the formula below still stands true) :

(ur fixed assets + annual earnings saved)*2.5/100 = 25 so u are obliged to give this money to make ur money pak of the evil spiritually inshallah this benefits the seeker if any

remember 4335 shouldnt be in cash only, it can be any asset u buy or assets with cash too (if the price of gold is so else it would be as per Golds price)

salam walaikum WA rehmatuallah he WA barakatuhu

correction: i by mistake mention 7.5 before, nisab level is 85 grams of golden on checking sorry astakfiruallah for making a mistake, so anyone who has an annual saving of 4335 (if given price of gold applies, else u can use the formula and calculate) or above n one lunar calendar passes him, he is eligible to pay 2.5 of it as Zakat bi iznillah

The Prophet Muhammad peace with him, became a Prophet by being called to prophethood by The God of mankind. Deuteronomy 18:18 prophecises about him and john 16:12,13 prophecises about him, confirming deuteronomy 18:18. (there are sereval more biblical prophecies that speaks of this Final prophet)

Anyway, he was meditating in a cave, away from all of the idol worshipping pagans, when the Holy Ghost, or Angel Gabriel came and said to him "Read" and he replied, " I can not read". Ths fufills the prophecy in Isaiah about that sats:::"the book will be given to him that is unlearned, saying: "read this, i pray thee" and he replied, "i can not read"

Name of Moses (Peace be upon Him) occurs in Holy Quran 153 times. As it is so many times I am not detailing excactly where it occurs for each of the 153 mentions of Moses, but a PDF copy of translation of Holy Quran by Pickhthall can be found on the net on the following address: http://muslim-canada.org/pickthallquran.pdf

You can find where Moses is mentioned youself.

Jesus and Muhammad lived over 500 years apart and therefore had no terrestrial meeting. However, Islamic tradition holds that Muhammad ascended to Heaven while he was still alive and met with Jesus in Heaven before returning to Earth. This is called the miracle of the mir'aj.

Hajj is a very important to me. so please correct me if im wrong. I am a Muslim. u are allowed to see the black stone and relive the life of the companions of the prophet Muhammad (may peace and blessings be upon him). U will not be able to bring any electronics and from what i heard you will be fasting. Fasting is when a person dose not eat or drink from the morning til night (fajr to magrib). u will be very compacted in the buses and some will have to ride on the roofs of them. It's really a great place to be though. That is all i know of hajj. im only 12 years old never went though. if u go tell me what its like!

Mecca was a stable city with a flourishing trade; the people there were not especially receptive to new ideas about God, particularly when they economically threatened the trade with the pilgrims.

Yathrib was a divided city of tribes; three Arab and three Jewish. They were already exposed, through the Jews, to the concept of monotheism and they welcomed Muhammed as a potential peacemaker who could "see both sides" of the Arab-Jewish question. (This didn't work out; after a time, Muhammed became convinced that the Jews were plotting against him and had them killed or enslaved. To this day, no Jews are allowed to come within sight of Yathrib, now named Medinat al Nabi, the City of the Prophet.)

Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib (AS) was 63 years old after being mortally wounded by a Kharijite while he was praying in the mosque at Kufa. He died 2 days later on the 21st of the month of Ramadan, 40 A.H.

The person who asks this question does not know that the mission of Islam is a global mission from its first day. It is not like the missions of the previous prophets and messengers such as Jesus Christ - peace be upon him- who tells his Disciples: 'I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel." (John 15:24) And again he stresses this point: ""Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel." (John 10:5) And in the Bible of Mark the idea is reiterated: "Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an evil spirit came and fell at his feet.The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter. "First let the children eat all they want," he told her, "for it is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their dogs." "As for Islam, its mission is universal. Allah - SWT - says in the Holy Qur'an: "And in no way have We sent you except as a constant bearer of good tidings and a constant warner to the whole of mankind." (Sheba 28) and "And in no way have We sent you except as a mercy to the worlds." (The Prophets 107) "So the proposition that Persians and Romans are not included in the Islamic mission contradicts the Divine wisdom in sending his Prophet and does not match the broad meaning of Allah's mercy that embraces all creatures. "Another question rises here: wasn't it more suitable to present this mission through understanding instead of fighting? "This really happened. The Prophet - peace be upon him- send his emissaries who had the highest levels of understanding, maturity, and commitment to truthfulness in conveying his messages. Among these were Abdullah bin Hudhafa As-Sahmi who was sent to Khosrau, the King of the Persians. The Prophet wrote him: "(This letter is) from Muhammad the slave of Allah and His Prophet to Khosrau the ruler of Persia. Peace be upon him, who follows the right path and witnesses that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah. Furthermore I invite you to the call of Allah - the Great and Almighty- for I am the Prophet of Allah to all mankind to warn whomever is living and that the Saying may come true against the disbelievers. If you become a Muslim you will be safe and if you reject this invitation of Islam you will be committing a sin by misguiding your Persians.' Upon reading the letter Khosrau went mad and tore the letter into pieces. He wrote to the ruler of Yemen: "I heard that a man from Quraish appeared in Mecca and claimed to be a prophet. Go to him and ask him to repent. Otherwise, kill him and send me his head." He ended his letter: "Dare he to write me in this way while he is my slave?" Consequently, the ruler of Yemen, sent two knights along with the letter of Khosrau and told him: "Khosrau ordered King Bazan to send someone to bring you. If you refuse, you and your people will die and your land will be destroyed." "So, who declared war? Khosrau did. "As for Caesar the Prophet - peace be upon him- sent Dihya Al Kalbi. Caesar was wiser than Khosrau because he was familiar with the Scriptural knowledge (Torah and Gospel) that mentioned the approach of the appearance of Prophet Muhammad - peace be upon him. History tells us that upon receiving the Prophet's letter Caesar searched about some Meccans to inquire about the sender of the letter. He found Abu Sufyan- the biggest enemy of the Prophet at the time - along with a group of merchants with him. He called for his translator who, translating Caesar's question said to them, "Who amongst you is closely related to that man who claims to be a Prophet?" Abu Sufyan replied, "I am the nearest relative to him (amongst the group)." Caesar said, "Bring him (Abu Sufyan) close to me and make his companions stand behind him." Abu Sufyan added, Caesar told his translator to tell my companions that he wanted to put some questions to me regarding that man (The Prophet) and that if I told a lie they (my companions) should contradict me." Abu Sufyan added, "By Allah! Had I not been afraid of my companions labeling me a liar, I would not have spoken the truth about the Prophet. Once Abu Sufyan answered all Caesar's questions about Muhammad, Caesar said: "I asked you about his family and your reply was that he belonged to a very noble family. In fact all the Apostles come from noble families amongst their respective peoples. I questioned you whether anybody else amongst you claimed such a thing, your reply was in the negative. If the answer had been in the affirmative, I would have thought that this man was following the previous man's statement. Then I asked you whether anyone of his ancestors was a king. Your reply was in the negative, and if it had been in the affirmative, I would have thought that this man wanted to take back his ancestral kingdom. I further asked whether he was ever accused of telling lies before he said what he said, and your reply was in the negative. So I wondered how a person who does not tell a lie about others could ever tell a lie about Allah. I then asked you whether the rich people followed him or the poor. You replied that it was the poor who followed him. And in fact all the Prophets have been followed by this very class of people. Then I asked you whether his followers were increasing or decreasing. You replied that they were increasing, and in fact this is the way of true faith, till it is complete in all respects. I further asked you whether there was anybody, who, after embracing his religion, became displeased and discarded his religion. Your reply was in the negative, and in fact this is (the sign of) true faith, when its delight enters the hearts and mixes with them completely. I asked you whether he had ever betrayed. You replied in the negative and likewise the Apostles never betray. Then I asked you what he ordered you to do. You replied that he ordered you to worship Allah and Allah alone and not to worship any thing along with Him and forbade you to worship idols and ordered you to pray, to speak the truth and to be chaste. If what you have said is true, he will very soon occupy this place underneath my feet and I knew it (from the scriptures) that he was going to appear but I did not know that he would be from you, and if I could reach him definitely, I would go immediately to meet him and if I were with him, I would certainly wash his feet.' Caesar then asked for the letter addressed by Allah's Prophet, which was delivered by Dihya to the Governor of Busra, who forwarded it to Caesar to read. The contents of the letter were as follows: "In the name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful (This letter is) from Muhammad the slave of Allah and His Prophet to Caesar the ruler of Byzantine. Peace be upon him, who follows the right path. Furthermore I invite you to Islam, and if you become a Muslim you will be safe, and Allah will double your reward, and if you reject this invitation of Islam you will be committing a sin by misguiding your Arisiyin (peasants). (And I recite to you Allah's Statement :('O people of the scripture! Come to a word common to you and us that we worship none but Allah and that we associate nothing in worship with Him, and that none of us shall take others as Lords beside Allah. Then, if they turn away, say: Bear witness that we are Muslims (those who have surrendered to Allah).' (The Family of Imran 64).

Muhammad returned with his Muslim companions to his homeland Mecca after a long journey of torment & suffering for all of them, this was after 8 years from his migration from Mecca to Al- Madina ( about 630 AD ) , the disbelievers of Mecca were asked by Muhammad PBUH about what they thought he would do to them , they told him

"اخ كريم و ابن اخ كريم "i.e that he is the generous....& it wasn't a surprise when Muhammad had announced ( by saying :اذهبوا فانتم الطلقاء ) that he forgave them & gave them the peace & nothing but the peace.

In that great day all the idols around Al-Kaaba were crushed ,they were 360 !

Hadrat Belal ibn Rabah, may Allah be pleased with him , was asked by the prophet Muhammad BPUH to stand up on the Kaaba & to call for the prayer (Al athan : Allah is the greatest , I believe that there is no God but Allah ,I believe that Muhammad is the massenger of Allah , come to the prayer., come to the good deed , Allah is the greatest , Allah is the greatest , there is no God but Allah ).

Many great things happened in that fantastic & glorious day & it's really very hard to mention all of them , but as a result of the tolerancy & wounderful morals of Islam represented by the prophet Muhammad PBUH & his companions people of Mecca all converted to Islam ,men,women ,young & old......Mecca becomes an Islamic city with all of what the word means.
