Disclaimer: This is a summarized version of Muhammad’s life just to get a general idea of who Muhammad is. Notice all the adversities and opposition that Muhammad had to overcome to spread the message of Islam.
Muhammad (570-632 AD) is the last of many prophets who preceded him, including Adam, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, and Jesus Christ --All whom preached the common message of worshiping one God (Allah).
What is Islam?
Islam is an Arabic word that means: Surrender. Submission. Obedience. Sincerity. And Peace.
In Islam, oppression and wrongdoing will not go be overlooked. God talked about oppression very clearly in the Quran, which is the last revelation, and the literal word of god. In Chapter 21: Verse 47
He says:"We will set up the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so that no soul will suffer the least injustice. And even if it's the weight of a mustard-seed, We will bring it up."
Muslims believe that the Quran is the literal word of Allah, which was a revelation through the head angel Gabriel to prophet Mohamed in 609–632 CE. In many passages from the Quran, Allah addresses all mankind. It is fundamental for mankind from all backgrounds, religions, and languages, to know what Allah is saying to them specifically to be able to make an informed decision on whether or not to follow Quran commandments.
Allah addresses mankind in the following ayat:
1: Allah is the most merciful, the most compassionate, the most generous, the self-subsisting, the greatest, the eternal, the all-knowing, the forbearing, and the wise.
