Muhammad ( SAW ) was born in the year 570 A.C. in Makkah in Arabia. He came of a noble Arab family. As soon as he started preaching Islam, he and his followers were persecuted and had to face severe hardships. He was therefore commanded to migrate to Medina,
another city in Arabia.During a short span of 23 years he was put to rest in the city of Medina. He left no wealth or property. He had lead a perfect life and set an example for all human beings. His Biography illustrates in real life, the meaning and implications of the Qu'ranic teachings.
Islam is a simple, rational and practical religion. The unity of God, the Prophethood of Muhammad ( SAW ) and the concept of life after death are the basic articles of it's faith. There is no hierarchy of priests, no complicated rites, and rituals. Everybody may approach the Qu'ran directly and translate it's dictates into practice.
Islam stands for the middle path and the goal of producing a moral man in the service of a Just Society.
"Our Lord ! give us good in this world and good in the hereafter". ( Holy Qu'ran )
Islam is a guide to towards a better and complete life and Glorifying in all it's phases, God the Almighty Creator.
