OUR HOLY PROPHET (PBUH) OR THE LAST PROPHET OR MESSENGER OF ALLAH

Our beloved Prophet, Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) was born on 12^th Rabi-ul-Awwal, 570 A.D. in the Holy city of Makkah. His (PBUH) father was died before his birth. His (PBUH) mother, Hazrat Bibi Amina brought him up with the help of Hazrat Halima Saadia. But at the age of six, she died and his (PBUH) grandfather, Hazrat Abu Mutlib brought him up. But, at the age of eight, his (PBUH) grandfather also died. Then, his (PBUH) uncle, Hazrat Abu Talib (R.A.) took his (PBUH) responsibility. He brought him (PBUH) up in a very nice manner.

Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) was honest and kind right from his childhood. He (PBUH) was given the name of Sadiq (Truthful) and Amin (Honest). He (PBUH) used to help the poor and needy people. He (PBUH) respected his elders and treated the younger lovingly. He (PBUH) never hurt anyone. The Holy Quran said, “He (PBUH) is the mercy to whole universe”. At that time, the darkness of ignorance had prevailed over the whole Arabia. He (PBUH) was married at the age of 25 to Hazrat Khadija (R.A.). At the age of 40, Allah bestowed Prophethood on him. Then, he (PBUH) began to spread the message of Islam in the whole world. He (PBUH) had to face many difficulties and hardships in his way but he (PBUH) remained resolute and determined. He (PBUH) enlightened the whole world with the teachings and light of Islam. At the age of 63, he (PBUH) met his Maker.
