​The Seal of the Prophets — What is the Status of Allah's Final Messenger? Prophet Muhammad (SAW)

Prophet Muhammad (SAW), the beloved and last emissary of Allah, was born in Makkah on the ninth of Rabi ul-Awwal, and he was the son of Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib bin Hashim bin Abd Manaf. Growing up, the Prophet (SAW) had a tumultuous life where his father died before he was born, and his mother, Aminah, passed away when he was only six. Two years later, his grandfather passed away. He was then put under the guardians hip of his paternal uncle, Abu Talib, where he would join him on his journeys, and learn/master the area of business. At the age of 25, he married his wife Khadijah. Because of his patience, respect, generosity, modesty, humility, kindness, empathy, nobility, and focus on social justice, purity, and honesty, Allah has endearingly given him the title of Rahmatul lil Alameen (the mercy for the worlds) in the Quran. The Prophet (SAW) is an excellent role model for the Muslims because of his firm steadfastness on the path of Allah, and his focus on spreading His Creator’s message as beautifully and peacefully as possible despite many injustices he experienced. When beginning to study the influential personalities of Islam, Prophet Muhammad (SAW) is the best person to look at first for he, indeed was given his fascinating religion, and he has set the tone on how every Muslim should carry themselves.
