Who Is Mohammad ?
Mohammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the last
messenger of God. He received the last divine revelation from
ALLAH (God of the universe), that is the Qur'an (the holy book
of Moslems). He was sent to all human beings; white and black,
red and yellow; Oh, you - human beings - I am the messenger of
God to all of you, that heavens and earth belong to him, no God
but him, who gives and takes life, believe in God and his
messenger and follow him so that you may be guided.

His followers (the Moslems) whatever their race is, are


ordered to believe in all prophets, (ibrahim, Moses, Jesus, and
Mohammad) and in all other prophets. All the prophets invited
people to the meaning of the Oneness of ALLAH, the sole
God of the whole universe. Say ALLAH is just one, ALLAH is
the one worthy to be asked. He never had children, never born,
no body at all is equal to Him or like Him. For those who ever
heard about Mohammad, no Paradise at all without believing
that there is no God but ALLAH and that Mohammad is the last
messenger of ALLAH.

Mohammad's mercy
and humanity
Muhammad (the messenger) has been sent by the Lord of the
universe just as a mercy for all creatures. He taught his
followers that ALLAH (almighty) would mercify only those
who are merciful and a person who doesn't mercify will not be
mercified by ALLAH (God of the universe), and the nearest
human heart from ALLAH is the merciful heart and that the
farthest is the cruel one. He said, "Mercify those on the earth,
so that the One in the heavens (God) may mercifies you".

Messenger Mohammad (peace and blessings be upon him)
taught his followers to help those who are weak and poor, and to
share sadness with those who are suffering. He said, "The one
who may work to help an orphan or a widow is like the one
who struggles for the sake of ALLAH". He also said, "The one
who cares of an orphan is with me in Paradise like two
adjacent fingers". He ordered his followers to be kind even
with animals. In one of his journeys, he watched a bird keeping
flying around the head of his companions, he said, "who
terrified this poor bird in her little chick?......return her baby
chick to her". Another time he saw a camel with his tears going
down, he said, "Fear ALLAH(your lord)in these animals, this
camel is telling me that his food is little and his work is too
much".

Muhammad's
modesty
Muhammad, the messenger, was very modest. He used to
sleep on a very simple bed with a palm-lufa cushion, and sit on
the floor with a straw ground cover. He mended his old clothes
and shoes by himself. He used also to sweep floor dust by his
own hands, and to help in house work. He accepted the
invitation of his servant and shared simple food with him. He
used to stop on the road for any poor person who wanted to ask
him or talk to him concerning anything. People were not
prevented by any doorkeeper at his door. He said "Don't praise
me too much as Nasaara (Christians) extremely praised Jesus,
the son of Mary but call me servant of God and his
messenger". He also taught his followers saying, "ALLAH
made me a thankful servant and not an insisting tyrant."

Mohammad's
manners
Messenger Mohammad taught his followers that the heaviest
thing in one's balance on the day of judgment is good manners.
He said that the main reason for entering paradise is fearing
ALLAH and good manners. He said, "I guarantee a palace in
the highest place in paradise for the one with good manners"

God described him in the Qur'an (the holy book of Moslems)


by saying, « and you are on great manners
». He also said, "I have been sent to integrate good manners,
your smile in your brother's face is an alm, save yourselves
from Hell-fire by saying a good word to your brother (all
Moslems are considered brothers and sisters)". He was ordered
in Qur'an (the revelation) « Get the extra (money)
from them as alm, order for good deeds
and avoid the impolite ignorants » . Good
people were described in the Qur'an « and when they
are insulted by the impolite ignorants
they would say: peace on you ».

Mohammad's advice
Messenger Mohammad advised his followers as saying,
"Spread peace, feed he hungry, keep kindful contact with your
relatives, pray during the night while others are asleep so that
you may peacefully enter the paradise". He also said, "preach
people and don't push them away". He said, "Be honest with
every body and don't trait who traited you". He also said,
"Mercify those on the earth, so that the One in the heavens
(God) may mercifies you". He also said, "Treat others with
justice, never be unjust, injustice will be darkness on the day
of judgment." he added, "I have been ordered to forgive those

who were unjust to with me, to give those who deprived me
and to keep on good relations with relatives who ignored me"

Mohammad's life
Messenger Mohammad (peace and blessings be upon him)
lived as poor, he was never full of delicious food. His food was
mainly barley bread, water, dates, and milk. It passed month
after month with no setting fire for cooking in his house. his
goals in life were nothing but to take people out of darkness to
light, guide them to the straight path of the Oneness of God,
purity and real happiness in his life and in the hereafter. As he
lived as poor, he also died as poor. At the moment of his death
he repeated, "keep on prayers and care for the weak."
When he died his honorable body was wrapped in three
pieces of simple cloth of poor. He didn't leave any money as
legacy for his relatives .His shield was mortgaged with a jewish
man for some barley. A person who wants to be one of his
followers ,has to testify that there is no God but ALLAH, and
that the Qur'an is the last divine revelation. He has to pray the
five prayers a day, fast the month of Ramadan every year, give
the alms of his money, and make pilgrimage to Macca once in
his life whenever possible, and stop drinking, gambling,
stealing, illegal intercourse, lying and all other dirt.
