Research on the life of the Prophet from his birth until his death



The lineage and birth of the Prophet:

The Messenger of God - may God bless him and grant him peace - was the most noble of people in lineage and the greatest in status and virtue. He was Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib bin Hashim bin Abdul Manaf bin Qusayy bin Kilab bin Murrah bin Kaab bin Luay bin Ghalib bin Fahr bin Malik bin Al-Nadr bin Kinana bin Khuzaymah bin Mudrikah bin Ilyas bin Mudar bin Nizar bin Maad bin Adnan.

The father of the Prophet, Abdullah, married Amina bint Wahb, and the Prophet - peace and blessings be upon him - was born on Monday, the twelfth of the month of Rabi’ al-Awwal in the Year of the Elephant, which is the year in which Abraha went to demolish the Kaaba, but the Arabs confronted him, and Abdul Muttalib told him that the House The Lord protected him, so he brought Abraha with the elephants, so God sent birds upon them carrying stones of fire that destroyed them, and thus God protected the house from any harm. His father died while he was a lamb in his mother’s womb, according to the correct scholarly sayings, so the Messenger was born an orphan. The Almighty said: -: (Didn’t he find you an orphan and take you to shelter?)

His life in the forty years before the prophethood:

 Breastfeed him

 Muhammad - peace and blessings be upon him - was breastfed by Halima Al-Saadia after she came to the Quraysh seeking any of the infants, and she had an infant son who could not find anything to satisfy his hunger. This was after Ibn Saad’s wives refused to breastfeed the Prophet - peace be upon him - because of the loss of his father. Thinking that breastfeeding him would not bring them goodness and reward, and because of that, Halima Al-Saadia received a blessing in her life and great goodness, the likes of which she had never seen, and Muhammad - peace be upon him - grew up unlike other young men in terms of strength and severity.

She returned him to his mother after he had reached two years of age, and asked her permission for Muhammad to stay with her for fear of illness in Mecca. He did return with her, and one day Gabriel came to him, cut open his chest and extracted it. He extracted a clot from his heart and said that it was the part of the devil from him, so he washed it with Zamzam water in a basin of water. He then went to his mother and returned him to his place. The chest-slitting incident occurred, and that was the deciding factor in his return to his mother.

Imam Muslim narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik - may God be pleased with him -: (The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, Gabriel, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, came to him while he was playing with the boys. He seized him and struck him, so he tore open his heart. He extracted the heart, and he cut it open. He took a clot from it and said: This is luck Satan from you, then he washed it in a golden basin with Zamzam water, then washed it, then returned it to its place...)

His bail 

The mother of the Prophet - peace be upon him - Amna bint Wahb died when he was six years old, and she was returning with him from the Al-Abwa region. It is an area located between Mecca and Medina. She was on a visit to his maternal uncles from Bani Adi from Bani Al-Najjar. He then moved to live under the care of his grandfather Abdul Muttalib, where he took great care of him. Thinking of goodness and great importance in him, then his grandfather and the Prophet died when he was eight years old, and after that he moved to live under the care of his uncle Abu Talib, and he used to take him with him on his commercial trips, and on one of the trips one of the monks told him that Muhammad would be of great importance.

His work is grazing sheep:

The Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, worked in herding the sheep of the people of Mecca, and about that, he, peace and blessings be upon him, said: (God did not send a prophet but he grazed the sheep, and his companions said: And you? He said: Yes, I used to graze them on qirats - a portion of a dinar and a dirham - for the people of Mecca) , and thus the Prophet - peace be upon him - was a role model in earning a living.

His work is in trade:

 Khadija bint Khuwaylid - may God be pleased with her - had a lot of money and a high lineage, and she was working in trade, and when she heard that Muhammad was a man truthful in his words, faithful in his work and generous in his morals, she entrusted him to go out and trade with her money with a servant of hers called Maysarah in exchange for a reward, so he went out - upon him. Prayers and Peace - A merchant went to the Levant, and he sat on the road under the shade of a tree near a monk. The monk told Maysara that whoever went down under that tree was nothing but a prophet, and Maysara told Khadija what the monk had said, which was the reason for her requesting marriage to the Messenger, so his uncle proposed to her. Hamza, and they got married.

His participation in building the Kaaba:

The Quraysh were determined to reconstruct the Kaaba; To protect it from demolition due to floods, they stipulated that it be built with good money that did not include any kind of usury or injustice. Al-Walid bin Al-Mughirah dared to demolish it, then they began building little by little until they reached the location of the Black Stone, when a dispute occurred between them regarding who would put it in its place. They agreed to accept the ruling of the first person to enter upon them, and the Messenger - peace and blessings be upon him - advised them to place the black stone on a garment that each tribe carried from one side to put it in its place, and they accepted his ruling without disagreement. Thus, the opinion of the Messenger - peace and blessings be upon him - was a factor in the matter. The Quraish tribes do not quarrel or disagree among themselves.

The beginning of revelation:

 The Messenger - peace and blessings be upon him - was alone in the cave of Hira during the month of Ramadan, leaving everyone around him. Staying away from all falsehood, trying to get as close to all truth as possible, contemplating God’s creation and creativity in the universe, and his visions were clear and unambiguous. While he was in the cave, an angel came to him and said: (Read), and the Messenger replied, saying: (I am not a reader.) The request was repeated three times, and the king said the last time: (Read in the name of your Lord who created), so he returned to Khadija while he was in a state of extreme fear about what had happened to him, so she reassured him.

In this regard, the Mother of the Believers, Aisha, may God be pleased with her, narrated: “The first thing that was revealed to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, was the true vision in sleep He came to Hira and he swore in it, which is devotion, the nights. And he would provide provisions for that, then he would return to Khadija and she would provide him with a similar supply, until the truth came to him while he was in the cave of Hira, and the king came to him and said: Read, and the Prophet said to him May God’s prayers and peace be upon him: I said: I am not a reader, so he took me and covered me until I was exhausted. Then he sent me and said: Read, and I said: I am not a reader, so he took me and covered me the second time until I was exhausted, then he sent me and said: Read, and I said: I am not a reader, so he took me So he covered me for the third time until I was exhausted, then he sent me and said: {Recite in the name of your Lord who created } [Al-Alaq: 1] - until he reached - {He taught man what he did not know} [Al-Alaq: 5]) .

Then Khadija - may God be pleased with her - took him to her cousin Waraqa ibn Nawfal, who was an old man who could not see and wrote the Bible in Hebrew. The Messenger told him what had happened, and Waraqa said: (This is the law that was revealed to Moses. Oh, I wish I had a root in it. I would be alive when he brings you out. Your people, so the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Or are they my makers? Waraqah said: Yes, no man has ever come with anything like what you have brought, but go back, and if your day overtakes me, I will support you A solid victory.

Then Waraqah died, and the revelation to the Messenger - peace and blessings be upon him - was cut off for a period of time, [8] and it was said that it lasted only for days, and the purpose of that was to reassure the Messenger and excite him about the revelation again, but the Prophet - peace be upon him - did not stop being alone with himself in a cave. Hira , but he continued to do so, and one day he heard a voice from heaven and Gabriel -peace be upon him -came down, and descended by the words of God -the Exalted -: ( O you are the most powerful*)God Almighty commanded His Prophet to call for His monotheism and worship of Him alone.

Meccan era:

Secret invitation 

The conditions of preaching in Mecca were not stable due to the spread of idolatry and polytheism. Therefore, it was difficult to call for the monotheism of God in it directly at the beginning. The Messenger of God did nothing but confide in the call, and he began by inviting his family and those who saw in them honesty and the desire to know the truth. His wife was Khadija, his masters were Zaid bin Haritha, Ali bin Abi Talib, and Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq. The first to believe in his call, then Abu Bakr supported the Messenger in his call, so he converted to Islam at his hands: Othman bin Affan, Al-Zubair bin Al-Awwam, Abdul Rahman bin Awf, Saad bin Abi Waqqas, and Talha bin Ubaidullah, then Islam spread in Mecca little by little until the call became public. After three years of keeping it secret.

The beginning of the public invitation:

The Messenger of God - peace be upon him - began to call his tribe out loud. God Almighty said: (And warn your kindred and those closest to you.) So the Messenger ascended Mount Safa and called on the tribes of Quraish to unite God, but they mocked him. However, the Messenger did not hesitate in calling, and Abu Talib took it upon himself. Protecting the Messenger, and he did not pay attention to the statements of the Quraysh about preventing the Messenger from his call.

Boycott:

 The Quraish tribes agreed to boycott the Messenger and those who believed in him and besiege them among the people of Bani Hashim. This boycott was not to deal with them in buying or selling, in addition to not marrying or marrying them. These provisions were documented on a plaque and hung on the wall of the Kaaba, and the siege continued for three years. It ended after Hisham bin Amr consulted with Zuhair bin Abi Umayyah and others about ending the siege, and they were about to tear up the boycott document, only to find that it had disappeared except for “In Your Name, O God,” from it, and thus the siege was lifted.

A year of sadness: 

Lady Khadija, who was a support for the Messenger of God, died three years before his migration to Medina. In the same year, Abu Talib, who was protecting the Messenger from harm from the Quraysh, became seriously ill. The Quraysh took advantage of his illness and began to severely harm the Messenger, and a group of the nobles of the Quraysh went to Abu Talib. When his illness became severe and I asked him for the Messenger to stop calling him, Abu Talib told him what they wanted, but he did not pay attention to that. Before Abu Talib’s death, the Messenger tried to pronounce the Shahada with him, but he did not respond, and he died as he was, and with his death and the death of Khadija - may God be pleased with her - the Messenger was greatly saddened. severe; They served as support, support and protection for him, and that year was called the year of sadness.

The call outside Mecca: 

The Messenger of God - peace be upon him - went to Taif in order to call on the Thaqif tribe to unite God after the death of his uncle and his wife, and he was harmed by the Quraysh. He asked Thaqif to support him and protect him, and to believe in what he came, hoping for their acceptance, but they did not respond and met him with sarcasm and ridicule

Migration to Abyssinia 

The Messenger of God urged his companions to migrate to the land of Abyssinia. Because of the torture and harm they were exposed to, he told them that there was a king who did not oppress anyone, so they left as immigrants, and this was the first migration in Islam, and their number reached eighty-three men, and when the Quraysh learned about the migration, they sent Abdullah bin Abi Rabi’ah and Amr bin Al-Aas with gifts. The gifts were given to the Negus, king of Abyssinia, and they asked him to return the Muslim immigrants. Protesting that they had left their religion, the Negus did not respond to them.

Al-Najashi asked the Muslims to explain their position, so Ja’far bin Abi Talib spoke about them, and Al-Najashi narrated that the Messenger guided them to the path of righteousness and truth away from the path of immorality and vices, so they believed in him, and they were exposed to harm and evil because of that, and Ja’far recited to him the beginning of Surat Maryam, so Al-Najashi cried intensely, and told the messengers The Quraysh said that he would not hand over any of them and return their gifts to them. However, they returned to the Negus the next day, telling him that the Muslims interpreted the word about Jesus, son of Mary. He heard from the Muslims their opinion of Jesus, so they told him that he was the servant of God and His Messenger. Thus, the Negus believed the Muslims and rejected Abdullah and Amr.

Israa and meraaj 

The narratives that determined the date of the Isra and Mi’raj journey differed. It was said that it was on the night of the twenty-seventh of the month of Rajab of the tenth year of the Prophet, and some of them said that it was five years after the mission, and the journey was such that the Messenger of God was captured from the Sacred House in Mecca to Jerusalem on an animal called Al-Buraq, accompanied by Gabriel - peace be upon him. -.

Then he was taken up to the lowest heaven, where he met Adam - peace be upon him - then to the second heaven and met Yahya bin Zakariya and Jesus bin Maryam - peace be upon them - then to the third heaven in which he saw Joseph - peace be upon him - then he met Idris - peace be upon him - in the fourth heaven, and Aaron bin Imran - peace be upon him - in the fifth heaven, and Moses bin Imran in the sixth heaven, and Abraham - peace be upon him - in the seventh heaven, and peace was concluded between them and their acknowledgment of the prophecy of Muhammad - peace be upon him -, then Muhammad was raised to the Sidra of the End, and imposed God owed him fifty prayers, then reduced them to five.

The First and Second Pledge of Aqaba 

A delegation of Ansar, numbering twelve men, came to the Messenger to pledge allegiance to him on the oneness of God - Glory be to Him - and not to steal and not to fall into adultery, sin, or false speech. That pledge of allegiance took place in a place called Al-Aqaba. Therefore, it was called the First Pledge of Aqaba. The Messenger Musab bin Umair was sent with them to teach them the Qur’an and explain to them matters of religion. The following year, during the Hajj season, seventy-three men and two women came to the Messenger of God. To pledge allegiance to him, and thus the second pledge of allegiance to Aqaba was completed.

Prophet's migration 

Muslims migrated to Medina; In order to preserve their religion and themselves, and to establish a safe homeland in which they would live in accordance with the principles of the call, Abu Salamah and his family were the first to migrate, and Suhaib followed him after he gave up all his money to the Quraysh for the sake of uniting God and migrating in his path, and thus the Muslims followed each other in migration until Mecca almost became empty of Muslims, which led the Quraish to fear for themselves the consequences of the migration of Muslims, so a group of them gathered in Dar al-Nadwah in search of a way to get rid of the Messenger - peace and blessings be upon him -, and they ended up taking a young man from each tribe and beating them. The Messenger is the blow of one man; So that his blood would be dispersed among the tribes, and Banu Hashim would not be able to take revenge on them.

On the same night, God gave His Messenger permission to emigrate, so he took Abu Bakr as his companion, and put Ali in his bed and instructed him to return the trusts that he had to their owners. The Messenger hired Abdullah bin Ariqat to show him the way to Medina, so the Messenger went out with Abu Bakr, heading to Cave of Thawr, and when the Quraysh learned With the failure of their plan and the migration of the Messenger, they began searching for him, until one of them arrived at the cave, causing Abu Bakr to become extremely afraid for the Messenger, but the Messenger reassured him, and they remained in the cave for three days until conditions stabilized and the search for them stopped, then they resumed their journey to Medina and reached it in the third year. The tenth day of the mission, on the twelfth day of the month of Rabi’ al-Awwal, he spent fourteen nights in Bani Amr ibn Awf, during which he founded the Quba Mosque, the first mosque built in Islam, and then began establishing the foundations of the Islamic state.

Civil covenant 

Building the mosque 

The Messenger of God ordered the construction of the mosque on land that he had bought from two orphan boys. The Messenger and his companions began construction, and his direction of direction was directed to Jerusalem. The mosque had great importance. It was a place for Muslims to meet for prayer and other matters, in addition to learning Islamic sciences, and deepening connections and relations between Muslims.

Fraternization 

The Messenger of God brought brotherhood between the immigrants and the Muslim supporters according to the foundations of justice and equality. The state cannot be established except by the unity of its individuals, and establishing the relationship between them on the basis of love for God and His Messenger and giving for the sake of the call. Thus, the Messenger of God made their brotherhood linked to their faith, and gave brotherhood to individuals to bear responsibility for each other.

City document 

Medina needed an order that would organize it and guarantee the rights of its individuals, so the Messenger wrote a document that served as a constitution between the immigrants, the Ansar, and the Jews, and that document was of great importance. It was like the constitution that regulates the affairs of the state at home and abroad, and the Messenger established the provisions in accordance with the provisions of Islamic Sharia. It was also fair in terms of treatment with the Jews, and its provisions indicated four of the provisions specific to Islamic Sharia, which are:

  • The religion of Islam is the one that works for the unity and cohesion of Muslims. 
  • The Islamic society can only exist with the interdependence and solidarity of all individuals, and each of them bearing his own responsibility. 
  • Justice is demonstrated in a detailed and precise manner.
  •  Muslims always return to the rule of God Almighty as stated in His law

Invasions and companies 

The Prophet - peace and blessings be upon him - fought a number of invasions and battles with the aim of establishing the truth and calling people to the unity of God - the Almighty - by removing obstacles that prevented the spread of the call. It should be noted that the invasions that the Messenger fought were a practical model in demonstrating the image of the virtuous warrior and respect for humanity.

This was after relations began to intensify between the Messenger of God in Medina and the tribes from outside it, which led to the occurrence of a number of combat confrontations between the various parties. The fighting that the Messenger witnessed was called a battle, and the fighting that he did not witness was called a secret battle.

The Quraysh knew that they did not want to fight, and they reached Al-Hudaybiyyah, but the Quraysh prevented them from entering, so the Messenger Othman bin Affan was sent to them informing them of the truth about their coming, and it was rumored that he had been killed, so the Messenger of God decided to prepare and fight them, so they sent Suhail bin Amr to agree with them on peace, and the peace was concluded.
