Death of the Prophet from "summary" of SIRAT UN NABI (2 Vols. Set) by Allama Shibli Nu'man
The passing away of the Prophet was a moment of great sorrow for the entire Muslim community. It marked the end of an era, the departure of a beloved leader and guide. The companions of the Prophet were in a state of shock and disbelief at the news of his death. They could not imagine a world without his presence and guidance. The death of the Prophet also raised questions about the future of the Muslim community. Who would lead them now? Who would continue the mission that the Prophet had started? These were questions that weighed heavily on the hearts of the companions. Despite the overwhelming grief, the companions came together to deal with the aftermath of the Prophet's death. They had to make important decisions about the leadership of the Muslim community. After much deliberation and consultation, Abu Bakr was chosen as the first caliph, setting the precedent for future leaders of the Muslim community. The death of the Prophet also marked the end of revelation. With his passing, there would be no more direct communication from Allah. The Quran, as the final and complete revelation, would now serve as the ultimate guide for Muslims. The companions of the Prophet remained steadfast in their faith and commitment to Islam even in the face of this great loss. They understood that the death of the Prophet was a test of their faith and resolve. It was a reminder that their ultimate allegiance was to Allah and His message, not to any individual leader. In the years that followed, the Muslim community faced many challenges and trials. But through their unity, faith, and determination, they were able to overcome these obstacles and continue the mission of spreading the message of Islam. The death of the Prophet was a turning point in the history of Islam. It marked the end of an era but also the beginning of a new chapter for the Muslim community. The companions of the Prophet rose to the occasion, demonstrating their unwavering commitment to Islam and their ability to carry on the legacy of the Prophet.
