Spread of Islam from "summary" of SIRAT UN NABI (2 Vols. Set) by Allama Shibli Nu'man
The spread of Islam is a remarkable phenomenon in the history of mankind. It began with the humble preaching of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, in the city of Mecca. Despite facing intense opposition and persecution from the Quraysh tribe, the Prophet continued to spread the message of Islam with unwavering determination. As Islam began to gain followers in Mecca, the Prophet faced increasing hostility from the Quraysh. In the face of this adversity, the Prophet and his followers sought refuge in the city of Medina. It was in Medina that Islam truly began to flourish, as the Prophet established a cohesive community of believers and laid the foundations for a new society based on the principles of Islam. The spread of Islam continued to gain momentum as the Prophet and his companions embarked on various military campaigns to defend the Muslim community and expand the territories under Islamic rule. These military campaigns were not waged for the purpose of conquest, but rather to ensure the safety and security of the Muslim community and to spread the message of Islam to new lands. One of the key factors that contributed to the rapid spread of Islam was the exemplary character of the Prophet Muhammad. His kindness, compassion, and integrity endeared him to people from all walks of life, and many were drawn to Islam through the Prophet's exemplary conduct. Another important factor in the spread of Islam was the simplicity and universality of its message. Islam offered a clear and straightforward path to salvation, emphasizing the worship of one God and the importance of leading a righteous and moral life. This message resonated with people of all backgrounds and cultures, leading to the rapid spread of Islam throughout the Arabian Peninsula and beyond.- The spread of Islam was a transformative and far-reaching process that had a profound impact on the history of the world. Through the efforts of the Prophet Muhammad and his companions, Islam spread from the deserts of Arabia to become a major world religion, shaping the beliefs and practices of millions of people across the globe.
