Universal Message to All Mankind

Muhammad’s mercy and beneficence travelled far beyond the confines of Arabia. His followers carried the torch of light to every corner of the globe and dispelled the darkness of ignorance. They gave to the nations of the earth a high culture and civilization and elevated them to the summit of glory.

Alfrred W. Martin remarks:

“By lifting to a higher moral and religious plane the communities of his day and Place; by welding into a harmonious religious unity the conflicting creeds of Arabia, Muhammad achieved that which neither the ]udaism nor the Christianity of Medieval Arabia could accomplish. Nay, more, in the successful fulfillment of his civilizing work and in the realization of his supreme religious aim. Mohammed rendered invaluable service, not only to Arabia but to all the world.” (The World’s Great Religions by Alfred W. Martin)

It is a matter of utmost significance that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sa) gave to mankind a compendium of laws, which is far ahead of any code of laws that we can find in the twentieth century. The present generation is confronted with many tangled and vetted problems such as economic problems, international relations, marriage and divorce problems, and many others which apparently have no solution. If the principles as promulgated by this Savior of humanity were to be applied, how quickly and beautifully they would be solved. And peace would cover the earth even as waters cover the seas. “Most successful” says a German Scholar Noldecke, concerning Muhammad “of all prophets and religious personalities.” (Enc. Britt. Koran).
