 Islam - An Historic Perspective Empty
مُساهمةموضوع: Islam - An Historic Perspective    Islam - An Historic Perspective Emptyالخميس نوفمبر 18, 2010 2:07 am

Islam began when man's career

on earth began---more precisely at the time of man's creation and his descent. Allah

created Adam and Eve and enjoined them to worship Him and live a life of obedience to the

Divine Will.


Allah is the Creator and Sustainer of the Universe

and of human beings. Man must turn to Him for sustenance and guidance. The very word Islam

means obedience to God. In this respect, Islam is man's natural religion---the only

natural course is for man to look towards Him for guidance.


The day Adam and Eve were sent down to live on

earth, Allah told them that they were His servants and He was their Master and Creator. He

told them and mankind that the best course was for them to follow His guidance, to obey

His orders and to refrain from what He had forbidden. God said to them that He would be

pleased if they obeyed Him and in turn He would reward them. If, however, they did not

heed His commands, He would be displeased and would punish them. This was the simple

beginning of Islam.


Adam and Eve invited their children to follow the

Islamic way of life. They and their children and their later generations followed the

teachings of Islam as propounded by Prophet Adam (peace be upon him) for quite a long

period of time. It was only later on that certain people began disobeying Allah. Some of

them began worshipping other gods of their own making, some of them regarded themselves as

gods, while a few others even declared their freedom to do as they pleased--defying God's

orders. This is how kufr (disbelief) came into being. Its essence lies in refusal to

worship God--pursuing the path of defiance to the Creator.


When kufr (disbelief) began to increase and

multiply it affected the life of society in a number of ways. Exploitation, oppression,

viciousness and immorality emerged in different forms. Life became intolerable. Allah then

appointed some righteous people to preach the Message of Truth among the wrongdoers,

invite them to the Right Path and convert them to God-fearing people--worshipping and

obeying God Alone. In short, they were asked to perform a mission--to make people

righteous and true Muslims. These noble people entrusted with this great mission were

called Prophets or Messengers of Allah. Allah sent these Prophets to different nations and

countries. All of them were honest, truthful, and people of noble character. All of them

preached the same religion--Islam. To mention a few names--Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus.

All of them were the Prophets of God and thousands of them were, over the centuries, sent

into the world to guide mankind.

In the history of the last few thousand years, one can see the

recurrent arrival of Prophets whenever kufr(disbelief) increased and assumed menacing

proportions. The prophets tried to stop the tide of disbelief and invited people towards

Islam. Some people adopted the Islamic way of life, but others rejected it. The people who

followed the Prophets became Muslims and, after learning higher ethical and moral

disciplines from them, began to preach and spread nobility and goodness. Having forgotten

the teachings of Islam, later generations of Muslims themselves gradually sank into

disbelief. Whenever such a situation arose, God sent a Prophet or Messenger to revive

Islam. This continual arrival of Messengers of God continued for thousands of years. In

the course of those long years, Islam was revived by those Prophets, who restated the

Message forgotten by their people. At long last God sent the Prophet Muhammad (peace be

upon him) who revived Islam in such an outstanding fashion that it still exists today and

will continue to exist (God willing), till eternity.


The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was born

in 571 C.E. in the now famous city of Arabia called Makkah. Islam had no following in

Arabia at that time nor did it have any following anywhere else in the world. Although the

traces of teachings of the earlier Prophets could be found among a few pious people who

tried to worship one and only one God and live a life of obedience to Him, the true

religion of God was lost in a maze of paganism and pantheism. The pure worship of God,

unadulterated by shirk (worship of false gods), was nowhere to be found. Moral values had

lost their grip and people were indulging in all sorts of lax behavior and wickedness.

Such was the situation in Arabia as also in the whole world at the close of the sixth

century when God decided to send the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as His last

Messenger. He spent forty years of his life as a patient observer in the city of Makkah.

Everyone respected him for his noble qualities of head and heart. But they were not aware

that this man was destined to become the world's greatest leader.


During the early years of his life, the Prophet

Muhammad (peace be upon him) felt very much grieved to see the gross immorality of the

world of his time. There was exploitation of man by man. There was injustice and tyranny.

He was grieved and anxious, but was somewhat silent as he, too, was unable to devise a

remedy for the ailing humanity of the day. At long last, God chose him as His Messenger.

When he attained the age of forty, God entrusted him with the Mission of spreading Islam,

the true religion of God, the religion of peace and justice, by means of the Revelations

which we now know as the Quran.

Having been appointed as the Messenger of God, the Prophet Muhammad

(peace be upon him) started to communicate God's Message to his people in Makkah. He began

by inviting them to worship none but God--their sole Creator and Master. People in general

opposed him and tried to prevent him from spreading Islam. He, however, continued his work

with unflinching determination and dedication. As a result, many honest people gathered

round him. They became his staunch supporters. The teachings of the Messenger of God

spread slowly but surely outside his native Makkah to Arabia at large. Those who had a

reputation for honesty and moral excellence began to accept the Faith, while opposition to

them came from many ignorant people and vicious quarters. This continued for thirteen

years. There was a gradual breaking of new ground. Islam was gaining a following all over

Arabia. This is one side of the story. On the other hand, the defenders of the old order,

people with vested interests and steeped in ignorant customs were hardening their

opposition to Islam. Whenever new converts to Islam were presented, they were abused,

humiliated, beaten, tortured, expelled and even put to death. Nevertheless, they remained

firm and steadfast. At last the Makkah elders devised a plot to assassinate the Messenger

of God in order to nip the Islamic movement in the bud. When affairs reached that pitiful

state, God ordered His Messenger to leave Makkah and migrate to Madinah.


Having learned that the Prophet was planning to

migrate from Makkah, its leaders expedited their plans to murder him on his journey

outward. However, their disgraceful conspiracy could not succeed. The Prophet arrived at

Madinah safe and sound. This is the most famous migration (hijrah) in the history of

Islam. The Muslim calendar begins from that day, the years being numbered "After

Hijrah" (A.H.).


Madinah, a city some 450 kilometers from Makkah,

was growing as a centre for Islam. A number of people had already been converted to the

new faith. Islamic teachings were winning new supporters every day. Leaders of the two

major tribes of Madinah had accepted Islam and were ready to sacrifice their lives and

property for the cause of Islam. At this point, the Prophet started planning to move to

Madinah.


As soon as the Prophet settled in Madinah, the new

Muslims started to flock into the city from the four corners of Arabia. This further

strengthened the new centre. Islam was no longer a persecuted religion; it was able to

obtain a firm foothold and was provided with the historic opportunity to establish an

Islamic State and society. This constitutes the most important development of the

post-Hijrah period. The leaders of Makkah, the defenders of the old order, did not miss

the significance of this change. They realised that a new model was being set up, which

would be a challenge to the way they were running their society. This caused great anxiety

amongst them. They decided to crush this rising force while it was still in its infancy.

For they believed that it would be easy to crush the Muslims while they were few and far

between and lacked a centralized power. Now things were changing. Muslims were

concentrating at one place and organizing a new society with its own government. The

prospects of annihilating such a state, once it was firmly entrenched, looked remote to

them. The unbelievers feared that if the Muslims were allowed to gain momentum they would

become a great power. Consequently they hurried to band themselves together with a view to

eradicating the embryonic Islamic government at Madinah. The Makkah leaders lost no time

in issuing a clarion call to their kith and kin and to all supporters of the old order in

neighboring towns and all over Arabia to rally round them to form a force which could

crush the Muslims. They formed a band of cavalry which invaded Madinah and its environs

time and again with all their military might. They, however, could not defeat the Prophet

and his loyal supporters. In spite of all efforts on the part of the unbelievers, Islam

continued to spread in Arabia. The good, honest folk continued to forsake kufr (disbelief)

and come into the fold of Islam.


Eventually, Islam gained a crowning success when

the Prophet entered victoriously into Makkah--once the stronghold of kufr. This all

happened within eight years of the establishment of the Islamic State of Madinah. No

sooner had Makkah submitted to the Islamic forces than the remaining hostile groups of

unbelievers of Arabia began to surrender. Within the next year, the whole of Arabia

accepted Islam and the Muslims established a powerful government over an area consisting

of some twelve hundred thousand square miles.


Arabia had the most singular government of the

time, based as it was on the principle of the sovereignty of God and the vicegerency

(Khilafah) of man. The law of the land was Islamic. The administration of the state lay in

the hands of the honest and pious people. The country had no trace of violence,

oppression, injustice or immorality. Peace, justice, truth and honesty reigned supreme

everywhere. Many of the people of the country had come to possess the highest moral

attributes because they were honest in worshipping God and obeying Him.


The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) changed

the character of Arabian life in a short period of only twenty-three years. He instilled

in the people a spirit that helped to serve the cause of Islam. They set out with the

great mission of spreading Islam throughout the whole world. The Prophet passed away at

the age of sixty-three, after completing the greatest mission of all time.


The Companions of the Prophet took up the mission

of the Prophet after his death. They traveled to distant lands to spread the Islamic

teachings. They succeeded wherever they went. Obstacles that stood in their way in

spreading Islam were all surmounted. Islam became so strong in such a short while that no

one dared try to stop its growth. The Muslims were spread out from India to Spain. They

changed the face of the globe. The entire population of the countries they visited were so

much impressed by their good example and noble behavior that they began to enter quickly

into the fold of Islam. Wherever the Muslims went, they took their highest moral

attributes with them--so much so that immorality and injustice dissolved in their

presence. They transformed Godless people into God-conscious people and gave them the

Light of Knowledge and strength of character. They changed their way of life so that

virtue and goodness could prevail. The entire social climate was reformed and remoulded.

The hands of the oppressors were held and a reign of justice and fair play established.

This was the greatest achievement in the history of mankind.


The Companions of the Prophet rendered yet another

great service to mankind. This consisted in memorising the Quran and preserving it in its

original form as it was revealed to the Prophet. They wrote down the Quran word for word

and did not miss even a mark in its Arabic orthography. Today, we are most fortunate in

having the Quran exactly as it was revealed to the Prophet, written and read in the same

language and in the same diction as it was written and read in the time of the

Prophet--about 1,400 years ago.


Another important aspect of their work was to

preserve and communicate to posterity the most detailed account of the Prophet's life,

speeches, instructions, commands, morals and behaviour. These accounts by the Prophet's

Companions are grouped together under the all-embracing title of the Sunnah of Hadith

(Traditions of the Prophet). This is the greatest record ever preserved about the life and

activities of a man and is a great blessing to every generation. For even after a lapse of

1,400 years after the Prophet's death, people can still see and hear his teachings as the

Companions of the Prophet saw and heard them during his lifetime. Now anybody can approach

hadith literature and find out the Islamic point of view on any subject. He can learn how

to become obedient to God and what type of man is liked by God.


The Quran and the Hadith are things of greatest

importance to a Muslim. With their preservation and security (God has promised to secure

and preserve them), Islam is protected for all time to come. In the days before the

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), Islam was forgotten again and again after being

revived, owing to lack of the necessary care regarding the preservation and security of

the earlier Revealed Books and the details of the lives of their Prophets. This was the

reason why, after every Prophet, generations following forgot the real teachings and

drifted towards a life devoid of good morals and norms of behaviour. But Islam, as revived

by the Prophet Muhammad, is bound to last for ever because the Book of God and the

traditions of the Prophet are both secure and preserved in their original purity.


The Islamic way of life can be revived and

reconstructed again and again with the help of the Quran and the traditions if ever, God

forbid, the freshness of its true spirit wanes. The world no longer requires any new

Prophet to revive Islam to its pristine glory. It is enough to have among us the learned

people who know the Quran and the traditions of the Prophet and who are able to apply

their teachings to their own lives and stimulate others to adopt and apply them in their

lives as well. This is how the stream of Islam will continue to flow, refreshing the

eternal thirst of mankind.
