Muslims worldwide celebrated Meelad Un Nabi the Birth Anniversary of the Holy Prophet Muhammed PBUH . Prophet Muhammad PBUH was born in Saudi Arabia at the city of Makkah in August 570 AD on the 12th day of Rabi-ul Awwal.

Meelad Un Nabi is a Grand festive occasion celebrated on the first twelve days of this month, where large gathering of Muslims join in Hadees and Mowlood programmes , the Arabic version of the life history of the Holy Prophet, his companions and family.

The Holy Prophet’s life gives us every fundamental guideline that we require to resolve the problem as successfully as our human minds and intellects can visualize.His example of integrity, loyalty, honesty, generosity, both of means and of time, his solicitude for the poor, the weak and the sick, his steadfastness in friendship, his humility in success, his magnanimity in victory, his simplicity, his wisdom in conceiving new solutions for problems which could not be solved by traditional methods, without effecting the fundamental concepts of Islam, surely, are all foundations which correctly understood and sincerely interpreted, must enable us to conceive what should be truly modern and dynamic Islamic society in the years ahead.

His life and achievements are so wonderful and expansive that I cannot cover them in this short article.

In the Holy Quran Chapter 33: verse 57 Allah says that He and His Angels send blessings on the Holy Prophet Muhammad PBUH. O ye who believe! you also should invoke blessings on him and salute him with the salutation of peace.This is clear that Allah says recite Salawath in the name of the Holy Prophet as much as you can , and for every Salawath you recite I and my Angels will recite many or more Salawaths.

The Holy Quran also clearly states that we must believe in Muhammad PBUH as the final Messenger of Allah. It is obligatory and essential to accept whatever the Prophet PBUH has brought.

A number of miracles were bestowed upon and performed by our Holy Prophet Muhammad PBUH to establish the proof of his prophethood.The greatest miracle bestowed upon him was the revelation of the Holy Quran.The Quran is miraculous in a number of aspects: Its linguistic perfection and inimitability, its validation by recent historical, archaeological, and scientific discoveries, its prophecies and so on.Unlike the miracles of other prophets before him, the miracle of the Quran is eternal.

The Prophet PBUH has taught us how to develop hope and create the love for Allah; and side by side, the fear of Allah has also been instilled in us. The hope and love urges one to fulfill the commandments of Allah and follow the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet whilst the fear becomes the deterrent against sin and transgression.

This message clearly indicates that all Muslims should follow theAl Quran and the Sunnah’s (Al Hadeeth) of our beloved Prophet Muhammad PBUH.

The Prophet PBUH later went on the journey of Hijrath to Madina, where the people of Madina the Ansari’s welcomed the Holy Prophet PBUH. Later after the Prophet’s demise he was buried in the second largest Masjid, Madina Al Munawwara (the lighted city) also known as Masjid Un Nabi which is located at Hijaz,on the western part of Saudi Arabia, some 400km north of Makkah.

Madina became a city of religious importance with the arrival of the Holy Prophet PBUH in the year 622 AD. The Tomb of the Holy Prophet is at the main area of the Mosque.

Every year several million Muslims from around the globe visit this Masjid and recite the Holy Quran and Salawath Un Nabi in the name of our much beloved Prophet Muhammad PBUH.
