The Prophet came and the people were in chaos
by: Mohammed Mosad Yagout
Our messenger" peace be upon him" came while the people were either kneeling for an idol, cows' worshipper, compelling to human beings in a dark ignorance, an abject poverty, painful bloodshed. An inherent. slavery in customs, manifest injustice for girls ,scattered lewdness throughout the land, and misconceptions became rooted assets in the minds of people.
Question: T he
My dear reader, what did one bishop say describing the state of the people of the land at the eve of the mission of Mohammed "peace be upon him"?
The answer:
The rector" Sheikh" Ibrahim Khalel Ahmed,who was a previous bishop was called Ibrahim Philopos, said in his book : Mohammad in the Torah and the Bible and the Quran, p. 47:
"while the Eastern world and the Western world were living with their sterile philosophy in the deep darkness of intellect and the corruption of worship, Mohammed" peace be upon him" was born in which he dawned from Mecca as a bright light which lightened the world by guiding it to Islam.
Comment: Thus, That rector summarized what did the published books and studies mentioned to prove the truth of the Prophet emergence - peace be upon him - to the world, at a time when the nations of the Earth lived in degradation level that it did not reach before. In fact, there were many various degradation levels in all aspects of life such as religious ignorance, unawareness, cultural decline, moral decadence, social injustice and political corruption.
Arabs:
The Prophet - peace be upon him – was sent while the earth was going through a critical hour or a tough period through which humanity suffered from various aspects of ignorance and injustice.
Regarding Arabs traits, despite their qualities of generosity, cavalry, hospitality , courage, intelligence, oratory and hygiene , they worship idols, and they buried girls. They inherited women as if they were animals and conducted women to prostitution in addition to many other bad habits like fanaticism and bloody wars over small things in which generations were sometimes demolished by these wars such as the following:
1- The war between the tow sons of Kellah tribe: Al-Aws and Al-khazraj war :this war lasted till the mission of our messenger –peace be upon him.
2- The war between the tow sons of Waael tribe: Baker and Taghleb (El-Basous war)which lasted for 40 years.
3- The war between the tow sons of Baged tribe: Abs and Theban also lasted for 40 years.
These three wars are called "the elongated wars"
Among these three elongated wars, there were also other bloody wars such as : the war of the corrupt people which took place in Mecca during prohibited months because of its abject degradation concerning its long bloods hiding period and innumerable victims. In the account of the three elongated wars.
However, everyone can imagine the calm period of time followed the mission of Mohammed –peace be upon him.
The Arab island was living in underdevelopment and injustice until the advent of Mohammed peace be upon him
"Thanks to the political and religious reformations of Mohammed -peace be upon him- which were mainly unified, the Arab awoke themselves and they transferred from the darkness of ignorance and chaos to prepare their final entrance to the history of El-Madina." Said The French researcher" Hinry Masea" in his book about Islam
Romans:
Concerning Europe, it lived in darkness under the middle aged church shadow inwhich there was the fanatic church governance which was based on hatred for others, rebellion against religions, suppressing science and knowledge as the public were deprived from reading and writing, also the public were not allowed to follow any Christian or none Christian ideology that may oppose the church .Then, opponents were burned by fire and offenders were sunk in water .Therefore, taxes and high tariff had been raised toward public that led to many revolutions and anarchy. Moreover, moral decadence had been spreadin addition to different kinds of brothel were widely common especially among rich classes.
Egypt:
In that time, Egypt was following western church. here we have to mention(Qeras),church worker in Egypt along 10 years, he tortured the Egyptians violently in order to force them to follow the church governance in which he burned them. Romans used different types of torture that were similar to inspection courts in Andalusia.
Yes ..the Egyptians were forced to follow Christianity.
This is confirmed by history and historians from different origins. We can contemplate what the French mentioning:"Gustav Lobone " researcher
Egypt was compelled to Christianity that led it to degradation which lasted till the Arab conquest" Islamic conquest". Egypt suffered from misery in addition to many religious disputes . Accordingly, The Egyptians fought each other due to these disputes. Therefore, Egypt always longed for its libration from the tyranny of rulers and from unjust Constantinople czars.
Egypt was exposed to various forms of the Christian governance of Europe represented in taxes,unjustice,persecution,slavery and depletion of its natural resources. Egypt was an agricultural suburb of the rulers of Europe .
In fact, anyone who studied or lived the Egyptian suffering at that time, may be he realizes why did the Islamic conquest was as a sigh of relief for Egyptians.
: Persians The horse will Regarding Persians ,we won't talk much about their civilization in which they worshipped fire, and exaggerated in the canonization Al –Akasera"their kings" considering them as Goddess Alokasrp dwell in the darkness of in addition to their injustice to their public
China : Also, The other cultures and countries were not better their injustice and degradation. China ,for example, they were pagan than the mentioned ones in the statue of the and they worshipped the statue of the philosopher (Juatma Buddha), a man who fought offspring birth and he
was born in 558 BC. Moreover women in China were suffering from flagrant aggression that was a result of
Buddhist philosophy which calls for abandoning generations.
India:
Regarding India, It is the most decadent nation ,the idea of class is widely common there in awful way. Also, Unbridled pornography is also common among them." They have sexual obsession that some religious men used to worship naked women and vice versa.
The priests of the temples were senior traitors and lechers in which their temples were used for porno and moral corruption. if this was the conditions of religious places, what could kings palaces and the rich homes be like…?" [Abu Hassan Nadawi:his book What did the Muslim world lost after Muslims degradation p. 68].
According to Abu Hassan Nadawi,the famous Indian scientist, the number of Indian Gods in this century is nearly 330 million God.
The difficulty of the task:
At this time the world was on his way to commit a social suicide due to the high corruption degree everywhere. Humanity was about to disappear.
This picture of the previous nations conditions shows to you how big was the exerted effort by our prophet Mohammed "peace be upon him" who exerted his utmost to change this bitter condition. It also shows the big change that Islam made n the world and the sacrifices of Muslims to build Islam.
The world mastership:
It was the first time that Arab realized cultural unity in which Islam built for them a nation, country and civilization.
German researcher" Rudy Bart" says: says, The
" The Arabs lived for centuries in the deserts and oases of the Arab Peninsula under a corruption until the emergence of our prophet Mohammed "peace be upon him" who calls Them for faith and to believe in one God, a creative God, and he put them a single homogeneous entity.
The Christian historian "Philip Hata" says:
If we have a look to Mohammed "peace be upon him" through his actions which he achieved , we found him to be the man, the teacher,the orator,the man of the state,the Mojahed"fighter".It seems clearly to us he was one of the most capable men along history .He spread Islam, established a country"El-Khelafe",built the Islamic civilization, and also built the Arab nation" Islamic nation" and he is still a vital power in the life of millions of people.
The elements of the new nation, the fair state and the wise civilization had a vital effect toward the cultural progress of Muslims, urged all the people everywhere to respect Muslims and to benefit from their civilization.
The light of the Islamic civilization spread and expanded worldwide even the modern European civilization was built from the niche of the Islamic civilization. Even the French philosopher "San Simon" said, in his book "The Anthropology[1760-1825]:
" The one who studies the various structures of human civilization ,he can't deny the big cultural role of Muslims and Arab in building the scientific renascence of modern Europe".
Thus, by Islam ,which is the only solution for human problems, man transferred from ignorance and darkness to Islam.
Also, by Islam, the family,child,Arabic woman transferred from social injustice to the Islamic justice…
By Islam, the society transferred from darkness to light .
The Arab transferred from underdevelopment to progress. and they had a unified leadership, a strong government and a clear country.
Allah appointed the Moslems to lead the humanity to the straight path , successors and just leaders so they dominated and advanced.
Lo, we have destructive leaders,
Alas, they did not build for theirs,
And destroy their nations assets.
