I START IN THE NAME OF ALLAAH
THE MOST MERCIFUL
PRAISE BE TO ALLAAH THE CREATOR
AND THE LORD OF THE UNIVERSE
THE ONE WHO MADE US NATIONS AND TRIBES
SO THAT WE MAY KNOW ONE ANOTHER
THE ONE WHO DECREED THAT THE MOST NOBLE
AMONG HUMANS IS THEIR MOST PIOUS
MAY ALLAAH RAISE THE RANK OF THE MASTER
AND HIGHEST OF ALL PEOPLE MUHAMMAD
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL,
GENEROUS AND BEST OF THEM ALL
THE ONE WHOM UPON HIS BIRTH
IN THE NIGHT MARKET OF UMM AL-QURA MAKKAH
THE LIGHT OF GUIDANCE SHONE UPON
THE WORLD SO THAT HUMANITY
IS LEAD TO GOODNESS AND BOUNTY
ON THE DAY OF HIS BIRTH,
THE 12TH DAY OF RABI^UL- AWWAL
THE WORLD CHANGED, THE EARTH REJOICED
AND THE UNIVERSE WAS LED ONTO
A PATH OF GUIDANCE
FOLLOWING THE ERA OF
DARKNESS AND IGNORANCE
THE GUIDING LIGHTS OF MUHAMMAD
SHONE BRIGHTLY
AND AFTER PROSTRATING TO IDOLS
THE HEARTS AWAKENED
TO THE OBEDIENCE OF THE LORD
THE ONE DESERVING OF WORSHIP
IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE RULES OF TAWHID (ONENESS OF ALLAAH)
AND NON-RESEMBLANCE TO THE CREATION
HE IS OUR LEADER MUHAMMAD
OUR MASTER AND SUPPORT
THE VINDICATED, THE PROPHET
AND THE MESSENGER OF UTMOST REVERENCE
MAY ALLAAH RAISE HIS RANK
HE ARRIVED INTO THE WORLD
TO SPREAD JUSTICE
HE SAVED THE FEMALE INFANTS
FROM BEING BURIED ALIVE
HE WAS GENEROUS TO THE ORPHANS
AND FED THE POOR
HE SUPPORTED THE WEAK
AND HELPED THOSE IN NEED
HE COMFORTED THE HEARTS
OF THE LESS FORTUNATE AND THE DISADVANTAGED
AND COMMANDED NOBILITY AND MANNERISM
AMONGST ALL
HE BID THE LAWFUL AND FORBADE THE UNLAWFUL
AND FILLED THE GLOBE WITH THE WORDS OF
NO ONE DESERVES TO BE WORSHIPED EXCEPT ALLAH
AND ALLAH IS THE GREATEST
YES DEAR FRIENDS
HE IS THE LAST OF THE PROPHETS
AND THE LEADER OF THE MESSENGERS
HE CAME FORTH WITH THE SAME MESSAGE AS THEM ALL
HE ORDERED US TO FOLLOW ISLAM
AS THEY ALL ORDERED
THEIR CREED IS ONE
WITH SOME DIFFERENCES IN CERTAIN JUDGEMENTS
PERTAINING TO THE PRACTICES
THEY WERE ALL CALLERS TO THE TRUTH
AND TO THE BEST OF WAY OF LIFE
THEIR MESSAGE IS THAT OF PEACE
SAFETY, SELF-ASSURANCE, TRANQUILITY
RIGHTEOUSNESS AND GUIDANCE AND
ALL THAT WHICH BRINGS GOODNESS FOR THE PEOPLE
VERSES 25 AND 26 OF SURAT HUD INFORM US
ABOUT WHAT PROPHET NOAH PEACE BE UPON HIM
SAID TO HIS PEOPLE
THE MEANING OF THESE VERSES IS
AND VERILY, WE SENT NUH TO HIS PEOPLE
TO WARN AND GUIDE THEM
AND TO ORDER THEM THAT
THEY DO NOT WORSHIP BUT ALLAAH
INDEED, I FEAR FOR YOU THE TORMENT
OF JUDGMENT DAY
AND SHU^AYB SAID TO HIS PEOPLE
AND I FEAR FOR YOU THE TORMENT OF A DAY
THAT SURROUNDS YOU WITH PAIN
AND MUSA (MOSES) SAID TO HIS BROTHER
DO NOT BE FEARFUL
AND IN VERSES 12-15 OF SURAT MARYAM
ALLAH INFORMS US ABOUT PROPHET YAHYA
THE MEANING OF THESE VERSES IS
O YAHYA, ADHERE FIRMLY TO THE TORAH
AND WE BESTOWED HIM WISDOM FROM A YOUNG AGE
AND WE MADE HIM SYMPATHETIC
AND MERCIFUL TO OTHERS, AND HE WAS RIGHTEOUS
AND HIGHLY OBEDIENT TO HIS PARENTS
AND HE WAS NOT A TYRANT OR AN OFFENDER
AND PEACE BE UPON HIM THE DAY HE WAS BORN
THE DAY HE DIES
AND THE DAY HE WILL BE RESURRECTED TO LIFE
AND ANGEL JIBRIL CALLED UPON LADY MARYAM
DO NOT BE SADDENED
AND ALLAH INFORMS US ABOUT PROPHET ^ISA (JESUS)
PEACE BE UPON HIM, IN VERSES 30-33
OF SURAT MARYAM. THESE VERSES MEAN
JESUS SAID, VERILY I AM THE SLAVE OF ALLAH
HE GRANTED ME THE BOOK AND MADE ME A PROPHET
AND HE MADE ME BLESSED WHERESOEVER I BE
AND ORDERED ME WITH PERFORMING
THE PRAYER AND ZAKAH AS LONG AS I LIVE
AND PROPHET IBRAHIM SAID
O MY FATHER, I FEAR LEST A TORMENT
FROM THE MOST MERCIFUL
AND PROPHET YOUSEF SAID TO HIS BROTHER
SO DO NOT BE SADDENED BY WHAT THEY HAVE DONE
THE MESSENGER OF ALLAH PEACE BE UPON HIM
SAID TO OUR MASTER ABU BAKR
DO NOT BE SAD, ALLAAH IS PROTECTING US
THIS IS THE CALL OF ALL THE PROPHETS
REFRAINMENT FROM EVIL IN THIS EARTHLY LIFE
FOR A RETURN OF SAFETY AND PROTECTION
FROM THE TORTURE IN THE HEREAFTER
THEIR CALL BRINGS COMFORT TO
THE HEARTS OF THE RIGHTEOUS ONES
IT ENCOURAGES THE RELIANCE ON ALLAH
AND IS A MEANS OF TRANQUILITY
OF THE SOULS IN RELYING UPON ALLAAH
MAY PEACE AND BLESSINGS BE UPON THEM ALL
AND ASSALAAMOU ^ALAYKUM
WA RAHMATU’ ALLAHI WA BARAKAATUHU
