Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Osama Bin Laden

I was ordered to fight the people until they say there is no god but Allah, and his prophet Muhammad. — Osama Bin Laden

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

But Shia scholars would maintain that Muhammad had long before made the divinely guided choice of his closest male relative - his son-in-law Ali - as his successor. He had done so many times, in public, they would say, and if Ali's enemies had not thwarted the Prophet's will, he would certainly have done so again, one last time, as he lay dying in that small chamber alongside the mosque. — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Al Warraq

That Muhammad could predict certain events does not prove that he was a prophet: he may have been able to guess successfully, but this does not mean that he had real knowledge of the future. And certainly the fact that he was able to recount events from the past does not prove that he was a prophet, because he could have read about those events in the Bible and, if he was illiterate, he could still have had the Bible read to him. — Muhammad Al Warraq

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Crystal Evans

I am yet to find one reliable friend in this crowd of shifting strangers. I have no true friends only mimicries, users and loopers. People popping in and out, keeping tabs on my life, not adding much credence to my existence yet not abandoning my life entirely because they know that greatness lies beyond the layers of this muck. It is up to me to discover those who are worth taking on this journey towards my destiny and the ones who will only get in my way. — Crystal Evans

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Anger
You ask for a piece of advice. I tell you: 'Do not get angry.' He is strong who can withhold anger. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad

The most excellent Jihad is that for the conquest of self. — Muhammad

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Qasim Zaman

In contemporary parlance, the term Salafi has come to acquire many different connotations. It has been used to refer to some groups who consider it obligatory to take up arms against all those - non-Muslims and Muslims - who are deemed to challenge or contravene the dictates of the Islamic foundational texts, the Qur'an and the normative example of the Prophet Muhammad (the sunna). At the other end of spectrum, it refers to a politically quietist trend, typified by the Saudi religious establishment, that rejects all beliefs and practices seen as compromising the oneness of God (tawhid) while leaving politics largely to the rulling elite. But the term Salafi is also used for, and by, those who reject the authority of the medieval schools of law and insist on an unmediated access to the foundational texts as the source of all norms. — Muhammad Qasim Zaman

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Teaching:
One hour's teaching is better than a whole night of prayer.
Saying of the Prophet — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

The Merciful is kind to those who are merciful. If you show compassion to your fellow creatures in this world, then those in heaven shall be compassionate toward you.
-The Prophet Muhammad (SAW), as narrated by Abd'Allah bin Amr from The Bounty of Allah — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Ken Ballen

One other thing this skinny Arab knew: the power of hating the Jew. He could quote from the Holy Book chapter and verse the perfidy of Jews. He could show the dagger of Israel stuck in the soul of Jerusalem where Prophet Muhammad ascended to Heaven. And this son of Islam's most holy places could wrap it all up in a tidy little conspiracy, the Jews in New York controlling America, the Great Satan, launching their crusades against Muslims everywhere. See, we Muslims are nursed on the mother's milk of conspiracies. And unless you have a conspiracy to explain everything in one neat package, we simply won't believe you. — Ken Ballen

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Distribution
God it is who gives: I am only a distributor. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Reflection
The Faithful are mirrors, one to the other. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anders Fogh Rasmussen

I can hardly believe what these 12 caricatures [about Prophet Muhammad] have caused in the world. We Danes feel like we have been placed in a scene in the wrong movie. But I don't see the fight as a clash of civilizations. Rather, we must focus on avoiding exactly this type of conflict. We have to return to dialogue, to mutual understanding and to an acknowledgement of freedom of opinion. — Anders Fogh Rasmussen

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

1. THE HOLY QUR'AN AND ITS DIVISIONS Al-Qur'an. The name Al-Qur'an, the proper name of the Sacred Book of the Muslims, occurs several times in the Book itself (2:185, etc.). The word Qur'an is an infinitive noun from the root qara'a meaning, primarily, he collected things together, and also, he read or recited; and the Book is so called both because it is a collection of the best religious teachings and because it is a Book that is or should be read; as a matter of fact, it is the most widely read book in the whole world. It is plainly stated to be a revelation from the Lord of the worlds (26:192), or a revelation from Allah, the Mighty, the Wise (39:1, etc.), and so on. It was sent down to the Prophet Muhammad (47:2), having been revealed to his heart through the Holy Spirit (26:193, 194), in the Arabic language (26:195; 43:3). The first revelation came to the Holy Prophet in the month of Ramadan (2:185), — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Hearts melt when the Beloved of Allah is mentioned. — Habib Kadhim Al-Saqqaf

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Adil Salahi

...What remains to be said is that no portrait of the Prophet's character will do him justice. He was superior to anything we can imagine. Perhaps the description that comes closest to the truth is that he was "the teacher of perfect goodness." May God reward him well for having taught that perfect goodness to humanity. — Adil Salahi

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Osama Bin Laden

These events have split the whole world into two camps: the camp of belief and the camp of disbelief ... There is only one God, and I declare that there is no prophet but Muhammad. — Osama Bin Laden

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad

It is better to sit alone than in company with the bad, and it is better still to sit with the good than alone. It is better to speak to a seeker of knowledge than to remain silent, but silence is better than idle words. — Muhammad

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Michael Muhammad Knight

I'm a spiritual person, she said. I believe in Allah, you know, though I don't always call It 'Allah' and I pray the way I want to pray. Sometimes I just look out at the stars and this love-fear thing comes over me, you know? And sometimes I might sit in a Christian church listening to them talk about Isa with a book of Hafiz in my hands instead of the hymnal. And you know what, Yusef? Sometimes, every once in a while, I get out my old rug and I pray like Muhammad prayed. I never learned the shit in Arabic and my knees are uncovered, but if Allah has a problem with that then what kind of Allah do we believe in? — Michael Muhammad Knight

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad

The Prophet Muhammad said : "The action of man stops when he dies except three things: continuous charity, knowledge (that he shares/teaches) or a pious child who prays for him." [Muslim: 4223] — Muhammad

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Ali Jinnah

The great majority of us are Muslims. We follow the teachings of the Prophet Mohammed (may peace be upon him). We are members of the brotherhood of Islam in which all are equal in rights, dignity and self-respect. Consequently, we have a special and a very deep sense of unity. But make no mistake: Pakistan is not a theocracy or anything like it. — Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Elif Shafak

No wonder the Prophet Muhammad said, "In this world take pity on three kinds of people. The rich man who has lost his fortune, the well-respected man who has lost his respectability, and the wise man who is surrounded by ignorants. — Elif Shafak

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Ali

If I could meet anybody? The prophet Muhammad — Muhammad Ali

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Abdallah II Of Jordan

It's a tremendous responsibility to be direct descendants of the prophet Muhammad. This family has had the burden of leadership on its shoulders for 1,400 years. I'm not going to drop the ball on my shift. — Abdallah II Of Jordan

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Ali Sina

Muhammad was a jackass. People who believe in him are stupid. Let us call a spade as spade. These people must be laughed at. They, and their screwball prophet have to be ridiculed not respected. Let them cringe, let them wince, let them agonize. We must demolish this fetish and break the shackles of these wretched people. They must be set free and the only way to do that is to demolish their fetish. — Ali Sina

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Iqbal

The religion of that prophet [Karl Marx] who knew not the truth, is founded upon equality of the belly. — Muhammad Iqbal

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Nouman Ali Khan

[The Quran is] a Revelation sent down by al-'Azeez, ar-Raheem. [Yaseen: 5]
The Quran is 'azeez (authoritative) and it's from al-'Azeez. And the Prophet is the most merciful human to ever live and was sent as a mercy to mankind from ar-Raheem. It's the perfect message delivered on the tongue of a perfect Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam). — Nouman Ali Khan

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Bashar Al-Assad

[The Jews] tried to kill the principles of all religions with the same mentality in which they betrayed Jesus Christ and the same way they tried to betray and kill the Prophet Muhammad. — Bashar Al-Assad

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Hamza Yusuf

Whoever has not thanked people, has not thanked God, said the Prophet Muhammad — Hamza Yusuf

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Iqbal

Another way of judging the value of a prophet's religious experience, therefore, would be to examine the type of manhood that he has created, and the cultural world that has sprung out of the spirit of his message. — Muhammad Iqbal

Oppression
When oppression exists, even the bird dies in its nest. — Idries Shah

The Judge
A man appointed to be a judge has been killed without a knife. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Moshe Feiglin

In any case, [y]ou can't teach a monkey to speak and you can't teach an Arab to be democratic. You're dealing with a culture of thieves and robbers. Muhammad, their prophet, was a robber and a killer and a liar. The Arab destroys everything he touches. — Moshe Feiglin

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By B. Margoliouth

He(Prophet Muhammad) laid the foundation of a universal government. His law was one for all. Equal justice and love for everyone. — B. Margoliouth

Women are the twin-halves of men. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Cat Stevens

The greatest legacy is that which benefits the widest number of people for the longest period without limit to value. No one but the Prophet Muhammad was given that role as the seal of God's message. — Cat Stevens

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Death
Die before your death. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Jon Krakauer

There is a dark side to religious devotion that is too often ignored or denied. As a means of motivating people to be cruel or inhumane, there may be no more potent force than religion. When the subject of religiously inspired bloodshed comes up, many Americans immediately think of Islamic fundamentalism, which is to be expected in the wake of 911. But men have been committing heinous acts in the name of God ever since mankind began believing in deities, and extremists exist within all religions. Muhammad is not the only prophet whose words have been used to sanction barbarism; history has not lacked for Christians, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, and even Buddhists who have been motivated by scripture to butcher innocents. Plenty of these religious extremist have been homegrown, corn-fed Americans. — Jon Krakauer

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Practice
Who are the learned? Those who put into practice what they know. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By George W. Bush

According to Muslim teachings, God first revealed His word in the Holy Qur'an to the prophet, Muhammad, during the month of Ramadan. That word has guided billions of believers across the centuries, and those believers built a culture of learning and literature and science. All the world continues to benefit from this faith and its achievements. — George W. Bush

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Some behaviour
I am like a man who has lighted a fire, and all the creeping things have rushed to burn themselves in it. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Jon Krakauer

When the subject of religiously inspired bloodshed comes up, many Americans immediately think of Islamic fundamentalism, which is to be expected in the wake of the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington. But men have been committing heinous acts in the name of God ever since mankind began believing in deities, and extremists exist within all religions. Muhammad is not the only prophet whose words have been used to sanction barbarism; history has not lacked for Christians, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, and even Buddhists who have been motivated by scripture to butcher innocents. Plenty of these religious extremists have been homegrown, corn-fed Americans. Faith-based — Jon Krakauer

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By John Quincy Adams

He [Muhammad] declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind ... The precept of the Koran is, perpetual war against all who deny, that Mahomet is the prophet of God. — John Quincy Adams

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Salman Rushdie

And the incident of the Satanic verses in the early career of the Prophet, and the politics of Muhammad's harem after his return to Mecca in triumph; and the surrealism of the newspapers, in which butterflies could fly into young girls' mouths, asking to be consumed, and children were born with no faces, — Salman Rushdie

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Accusations
Anyone reviling a brother for a sin will not himself die before committing it. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Jalaluddin Rumi

ONE WHO WRAPS HIMSELF

God called the Prophet Muhammad Muzzammil,
"The One Who Wraps Himself,"

and said,
"Come out from under your cloak, you so fond
of hiding and running away.

Don't cover your face.
The world is a reeling, drunken body, and you are its intelligent head.

Don't hide the candle
of your clarity. Stand up and burn
through the night, my prince.

Without your light
a great lion is held captive by a rabbit!

Be the captain of the ship,
Mustafa, my chosen one,
my expert guide.

Look how the caravan of civilization
has been ambushed.
Fools are everywhere in charge.
Do not practice solitude like Jesus. Be in the assembly,
and take charge of it.

As the bearded griffin, the Humay, lives on Mt. Qaf because he's native to it,
so you should live most naturally out in public
and be a communal teacher of souls. — Jalaluddin Rumi

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Reza Aslan

The loss of Abu Talib's protection was certainly demoralizing, if not detrimental to Muhammad's physical security. But returning home after one of his painfully violent revelatory experiences, or after suffering another indignity from the Quraysh - his head covered in dirt, his tunic defiled with blood - and not having Khadija there to wrap him in her cloak and hold him in her arms until the terror subsided must have been an unimaginable sorrow for the Prophet. — Reza Aslan

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad

There is a polish for everything that takes away rust, and the polish for the heart is the remembrance of God. — Muhammad

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

Seek knowledge from the Cradle to the Grave — Anonymous

Desire
Desire not the world, and God will love you. Desire not what others have, and they will love you. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

If I were to receive a pair of the blessed prophetic sandals to place on my head, then I shall consider myself no less than a fully crowned king. — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By James Waterson

The Prophet said: A man will come out of the East who will preach in the name of the family of Muhammad, though he is the furthest of all men from them. He will hoist black flags which begin with victory and end with unbelief. — James Waterson

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

But the teaching of the Comforter would be a perfect one, guiding men into all truth, and the Holy Qur'an is the only book which claims to be a perfect law. (2) That the Comforter would not speak of himself, but that which he shall hear he shall speak; the words conveying exactly the same idea as those of Deut. 18:18: "And I will put My words in his mouth", a qualification which is met with only in the person of the Holy Prophet Muhammad. (3) That he will glorify Jesus, and the Holy Prophet did glorify Jesus by denouncing as utterly false all those calumnies which were heaped upon Jesus and his mother. It is argued, however, that the — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

Bombing embassies or destroying non-military installations like the World Trade Center is no jihad. [T]hose who launched the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks not only killed thousands of innocent people in the United States but also put the lives of millions of Muslims across the world at risk. Bin Laden is not a prophet that we should put thousands of lives at risk for. — Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Envy
Envy devours good deeds, as a fire devours fuel. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
The Tongue
A man slips with his tongue more than with his feet. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

The ink of the scholar is more holy than the blood of the martyr. — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Struggle
The holy warrior is he who struggles with himself. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By George Bernard Shaw

I have very carefully studied Islam and the life of its Prophet (PBUH). I have done so both as a student of history and as a critic. And I have come to conclusion that Muhammad (PBUH) was indeed a great man and a deliverer and benefactor of mankind which was till then writhing under the most agonising Pain. — George Bernard Shaw

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Ayaan Hirsi Ali

By declaring our Prophet infallible and not permitting ourselves to question him, we Muslims had set up a static tyranny. The Prophet Muhammad attempted to legislate every aspect of life. By adhering to his rules of what is permitted and what is forbidden, we Muslims supressed the freedom to think for ourselves and to act as we chose. We froze the moral outlook of billions of people into the mind-set of the Arab desert in the seventh century. We were not just servants of Allah, we were slaves. — Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

The best of the houses is the house where an orphan gets love and kindness. — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Ayaan Hirsi Ali

I found myself thinking that the Quran is not a holy document. It is a historical record, written by humans. It is one version of events, as perceived by the men who wrote it 150 years after the Prophet Muhammad died. And it is a very tribal and Arab version of events. It spreads a culture that is brutal, bigoted, fixated on controlling women, and harsh in war. — Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Mustafa Akyol

While no Muslim worthy of his name would lose his respect for God, the Prophet Muhammad, and other symbols of Islam, he might well refrain from using legal prosecution or violent reaction to those who do not show the same respect. My basis for this claim is nothing other than the holiest source of Islam, the Quran. — Mustafa Akyol

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Wolfgang Pauli

Es gibt keinen Gott und Dirac ist sein Prophet. (There is no God and Dirac is his Prophet.)

{A remark made during the Fifth Solvay International Conference (October 1927), after a discussion of the religious views of various physicists, at which all the participants laughed, including Dirac, as quoted in Teil und das Ganze (1969), by Werner Heisenberg, p. 119; it is an ironic play on the Muslim statement of faith, the Shahada, often translated: 'There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is his Prophet.'} — Wolfgang Pauli

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Sleep
Sleep is the brother of death. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Nouman Ali Khan

How many times have you seen Muslims quote an ayah of the Quran and their eyes were full of anger? Let me tell you, that is not how Angel Jibril brought the Quran to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and that's not how our Prophet recited the Quran to his people. — Nouman Ali Khan

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

The best of you in Jahiliyyah are the best of you in Islam, as long as they have understanding. [Prophet Muhammad (SAWS — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Zadie Smith

We are split people. For myself, half of me wishes to sit quietly with legs crossed, letting the things that are beyond my control wash over me. But the other half wants to fight a holy war. Jihad! And certainly we could argue this out in the street, but I think, in the end, your past is not my past and your truth is not my truth and your solution
it is not my solution. So I do not know what it is you would like me to say. Truth and firmness is one suggestion, though there are many people you can ask if that answer does not satisfy. Personally, my hope lies in the last days. The prophet Muhammad
peace be upon Him!
tells us that on the Day of Resurrection everyone will be struck unconscious. Deaf and dumb. No chitchat. Tongueless. And what a bloody relief that will be. — Zadie Smith

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Aasif Mandvi

If you choose to be a Muslim then you believe that it is on some level wrong to show the image of the Prophet Muhammad. — Aasif Mandvi

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Thisuri Wanniarachchi

He wished he understood where they come from: all the terrorists, religious revolutionists
and hate-criminals. Did terrorizing entire communities of people help them sleep sound at
night? Did it make them happy? Or are they just in for the attention? Have they nothing to
lose? Or are they simply bored and spit balling issues that have always been there? Can all
global acts of violence and terror be summed up, as just a whole other level of a mixture of
bad parenting, psychological disorders and unattended anger management issues? Can they
be treated, medically or spiritually? Are we waiting for the birth of another great visionary
like Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Muhammad, who will 'make the world a better
place'? Or are we just too soaked in the idea that religion is a dying concept and spirituality
is overrated? Is it too late? Are we too far behind? He wanted to know. — Thisuri Wanniarachchi

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Truth
Speaking the truth to the unjust is the best of holy wars. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Ayaan Hirsi Ali

This was not an attack by a mentally deranged, lone-wolf gunman. This was not an 'un-Islamic' attack by a bunch of thugs - the perpetrators could be heard shouting that they were avenging the Prophet Muhammad. Nor was it spontaneous. It was planned to inflict maximum damage, during a staff meeting, with automatic weapons and a getaway plan. It was designed to sow terror, and in that it has worked. — Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

Amongst the friends of Allah (Awliya), the Qur'an is considered as a love letter from Allah, which inevitably is read continuously to remind them of their Beloved. — Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Alija Izetbegovic

It is known that the Quran leaves an analytical reader the impression of disarrangement, and that it seems to be a compound of diverse elements. Nevertheless, the Quran is life, not literature. Islam is a way of living rather than a way of thinking. The only authentic comment of the Quran can be life, and as we know, it was the life of the prophet Muhammad. Islam is in its written form (the Quran) may seem disorderly, but in the life of Muhammad it proves itself to be a natural union of love and force, the sublime and the real, the divine and the human. This explosive compound of religion and politics produced enormous force in the life of the peoples who accepted it. In one moment, Islam has coincided with the very essence of life. — Alija Izetbegovic

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Monkishness
No monkery in Islam. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anila Aboo

Unable and crippled I am
As I gaze into the vastness
The vastness that harbors your praise
And glories of the best of creation ...
If I tried to spell..
A drop of ink from your love
Ma quill would burn in shame
for your love match no words ... ya rasoolullah! — Anila Aboo

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Abu Dawood

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: By his good character a believer will attain the degree of one who prays during the night and fasts during the day. — Abu Dawood

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Ayaan Hirsi Ali

As a legal text, the Qur'an reflects its origins in a tribal or clan-based society, particularly on issues concerning inheritance, male guardianship, the validity of a woman's testimony in court, and polygamy. This is even more obvious in the hadith, the compilation of sayings attributed to the Prophet or documenting his actions. This combination of the Qur'an and the example of Muhammad forms the basis of sharia. The derivation of these legal rules, known as fiqh, is the responsibility of Islamic jurists and takes place on the basis of ijma (consensus). When conflicts of interpretation arise, scholars consult the Qur'an and hadith. — Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Anonymous

6. THE POSITION OF WOMAN Spiritually woman raised to the position of man. This is another subject on which great misunderstanding prevails. The belief that, according to the Qur'an, woman has no soul is almost general in the West. Probably it took hold of the mind of Europe at a time when Europeans had no access to the Qur'an. No other religious book and no other reformer has done one-tenth of what the Holy Qur'an or the Holy Prophet Muhammad has done to raise the position of woman. — Anonymous

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Karen Armstrong

Muhammad had become the head of a collection of tribal groups that were not bound together by blood but by a shared ideology, an astonishing innovation in Arabian society. Nobody was forced to convert to the religion of the Quran, but Muslims, pagans and Jews all belonged to one ummah, could not attack one another, and vowed to give each other protection. News of this extraordinary new 'supertribe' spread, and though at the outset nobody thought that it had a chance of survival, it proved to be an inspiration that would bring peace to Arabia before the death of the Prophet in 632, just ten years after the hijrah. — Karen Armstrong

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
THE PEOPLE
It is the people who are God's family.

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Imam Junayd Al-Baghdadi

The Prophet's character was termed tremendous because his concern was for God alone. — Imam Junayd Al-Baghdadi

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Syed Muhammad Naquib Al-Attas

Change, development and progress, according to the Islamic viewpoint, refer to the return to the genuine Islam enunciated and practised by the Holy Prophet (may God bless and give him Peace!) and his noble Companions and their Followers (blessing and peace be upon them all!) and the faith and practice of genuine Muslims after them; and they also refer to the self and mean its return to its original nature and religion (Islam). — Syed Muhammad Naquib Al-Attas

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Abdul Sattar Abu Risha

We are following Allah's word. We believe that humanity's only duty is to honor Allah and his prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. We are implementing what is written in the Koran. If we manage to do so, then of course it will be a success. — Abdul Sattar Abu Risha

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Ibn Isa At-Tirmidhi

The Prophet Muhammad (s) said: "Indeed, an ignorant man who is generous is dearer to God than a worshipper who is miserly." — Muhammad Ibn Isa At-Tirmidhi

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Love
Do you think you love your Creator? Love your fellow-creature first. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Jesse Harasta

Cemetery of al-Baqi in Medina, they utterly destroyed the tombs of the Imams Hasan, Ali ibn Husayn, Muhammed ibn Ali, and Jafar, as well as the tomb of Fatima, the daughter of Muhammad. In Mecca, they destroyed the Cemetery of Mualla, where the ancestors of Muhammad and his first wife Khadija were buried. These prominent destructions were part of a pattern of violence that witnessed the Wahhabi Saudis smash buildings, tombs and mosques associated with the history of the Prophet and his family and which were venerated by Shia. — Jesse Harasta

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Humility
Humility and courtesy are themselves a part of piety. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By G. Willow Wilson

It seems like whenever you write about Muslims, people assume that you're writing about the Quran, you are writing about the Prophet Muhammad. There's no sense that Muslims are capable of individualism, that they're capable of making mistakes that are somehow not connected to Islam. — G. Willow Wilson

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Kim Stanley Robinson

The Quran says nothing about the veil, except for an injunction to veil the bosom, which is obvious. As for the face, Muhammad's wife Khadijeh never wore the veil, nor did the other wives of the Prophet after Khadijeh died. [ ... ] The ulema have twisted the Quran with their hadith, always twisting it toward those in power, until the message Muhammad laid out so clearly, straight from God, has been reversed, and good Muslim women are made like slaves again, or worse. — Kim Stanley Robinson

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Food
Nobody has eaten better food than that won by his own labour. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Idries Shah

Saying of the Prophet
Understanding
Speak to everyone in accordance with his degree of understanding. — Idries Shah

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Sam Harris

Recently , crowds of thousands gathered throughout the Muslim world - burning European embassies, issuing threats, taking hostages, even killing people - in protest over twelve cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad that were first published in a Danish newspaper. When was the last atheist riot? — Sam Harris

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

In a nation where the disbelievers sought Heaven from the idols, the Messenger of Allah [Prophet Muhammad] taught them that Heaven can be found through a simple smile. — Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

Muhammad The Prophet Quotes By Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

A fundamental aim of Mawlid al-Nabi a is to attain love and proximity of the Prophet and to revive the believer's relationship with his most revered person. — Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri
