HAZRAT
MUHAMMAD(Peace be upon him) Born in Makkah in 571A.C, Muhammad (PBUH) sprang from Arabia's noblest family, Banu Hashim of Quraish, to whom had been entrusted the custodianship of Kaaba, built by Prophet Abraham and his son Ismail. Muhammad's (PBUH) father, Abdullah, the youngest son of his grandfather, Abdul Muttalib, the Custodian of Kaaba, had died before his son was born, His mother, Amina, too, died, six years later. Young Muhammad (PBUH) was afterwards brought up by his grandfather Abdul Muttalib and on his death, two years later, by his uncle Abu Talib, the father of famous Ali, the lion-hearted. Islam, the religion sponsored by
Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) through the injunctions of the sacred
book of God-the Holy Quran, evolved a complete code of life, and
the great Prophet translated its precepts into practice which
made a lasting salutary effect on his countrymen. He stood like
a rock against the surging waves of opposition and ultimately
won the field. His forbearance, magnanimity, patience, and ability
for organization, stand unparalleled in the annals of mankind.
