الرسالة

لما أشرف سيدنا محمد (صلى الله علية وسلم) على الأربعين حبب اليه الخلوة و العزلة فكان يحمل جسده الطاهر الشريف و يصعد به فوق جبل النور حاملا بعض الطعام و الشراب ليجلس مع نفسه في غار حراء , كان يفعل ذلك في شهر رمضان . يبتعد عن أهل مكة و أهله و أولاده.

كان ينظر الى الكون العظيم يتدبر و يتأمل و يستكشف العالم و يبحث عن الحقيقة لأن احوال الناس لم تكن تعجبه . فقد استشرى الفساد في الارض و صار القوي يأكل الضعيف و انتشرت الفواحش و صارت الحجارة الصماء التي لا تسمع و لا تتكلم هي الألهة التي يعبدها الناس و يحلفون بها و يقدمون لها الهدايا و القرابين.

كان هناك شعور قوي يحتويه يجعله دائم التفكير يتطلع الى السماء و الى النجوم و الكواكب ثم ينظر الى الجبال الشامخات و الطيور تضرب بأجنحتها في الهواء . هو الان في معزل عن العالم لكنه يفكر في هذا العالم , من الذي اوجده ؟ من الذي يقوم على شئونه ؟  أتلك الاصنام التي يعبدونها و يقولون انها ألهة , و هي لا تستطيع ان تنفع او تضر ..... من الخالق ... القادر ... الرازق ؟؟؟ من الذي ينصر المظلومين و يعاقب الطغاة و الظالمين ؟؟؟.

و في لحظة فاصلة اراد الله سبحانه و تعالى ان ينشر الخير على البشرية فأمر الله عز وجل جبريل ليهبط على النبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) و يبشره بالنبوة و الرسالة . و جاء جبريل فقال : أقرأ  , فقال النبي (صلى الله علية و سلم) : ما انا بقارئ فأخذه جبريل فغطه حتى بلغ من النبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) الجهد ثم ارسله و قال : أقرأ , فقال النبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) : ما انا بقارئ , فقال جبريل : * اقرأ باسم ربك الذي خلق . خلق الانسان من علق . أقرأ و ربك الأكرم * - سورة العلق الاية 1 الى 3-  .

رجع رسول الله (صلى الله علية و سلم) يرجف فؤاده فدخل على خديجة بنت خويلد فقال : زملوني .. زملوني .... . فزملوه حتى ذهب عنه الروع , فقال لخديجة : لقد خشيت على نفسي . فقالت خديجة : كلا و الله لا يخزيك الله ابدا , انك لتصل الرحم و تحمل الكل و تكسب المعدوم و تقري الضيف و تعين على نوائب الحق . و انطلقت به خديجة حتى اتت ورقة بن نوفل ابن عمها و كان شيخا كبيرا و كان يعرف التوراة و الانجيل . قالت خديجة لورقة : يا ابن عم , اسمع من ابن اخيك . فقال له ورقة : يا ابن اخي ماذا ترى ؟ . فأخبره رسول الله (صلى الله علية وسلم) خبر ما رأى , فقال له ورقة : هذا الناموس الذي نزله الله على موسى , يا ليتني فيها جذعا , ليتني اكون حيا اذ يخرجك قومك . فقال رسول الله (صلى الله علية وسلم) : أاو مخرجي هم ؟ . قال : نعم , لم يأت رجل قط بمثل ما جئت به الا عودي , و ان يدركني يومك انصرك نصرا مؤزرا . و لكن ورقة توفى بعد فترة.

بعد هذه المقابلة كان النبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) في غاية التشوق لرؤية الوحي , فلما عاب عنه فترة ظن انه لن يأتي اليه مرة اخرى . لكن جبريل ظهر له و راح يخاطبه قائلا : يا محمد انت رسول الله و انا جبريل.. يا محمد انت رسول الله و انا جبريل . فاطمأن قلب النبي(صلى الله علية وسلم) و تأكد له بيقين أنه بالفعل رسول الله و ان هذا الذي أتاه هو جبريل .

امر الله سبحانه و تعالى نبيه ان يدعوا الناس الى دين الله , و ان يبدأ بأقرب الناس اليه اولا , عليه ان يشرح لهم التوحيد الخالص و ان يرفع الغشاوة السوداء عن عيونهم حتى يروا نور الله الذي جاءهم من السماء . كان النبي (صلى الله علية و سلم) يعلم اها مهمة صعبة.. صعبة جدا و بلذات مع أهل مكة و سادتها و لكنه شمر عن ساعد الجد و استعان بالله عز وجل و بدأت رحلته التاريخية العظيمة الشاقة.

ها قد بدأت رحلة الرسول (صلى الله علية وسلم) اخذ الامر من الله ان يبلغ الاقربين و ان يدعوهم الى دين التوحيد و التخلص من شوائب الكفر و الطغيان ... عليهم ان يفكروا بعقولهم و يفتحوا قلوبهم لهذا النور الذي اتى به . و امتثل النبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) لامر ربه و بدأ دعوته بأقرب الناس اليه . امنت زوجته خديجة من اول لحظة لانها كانت تعيش لحظات الوحي الأولى لحظة بلحظة فهي اول من امن به وصدقه و ازره ووقف بجانبه و ضحى من اجله , كانت توفر له كل أسباب الراحة و الهناء داخل البيت حتى يتفرغ لدعوته.

و امن به علي بن ابي طالب - ابن عمه - لأنه كان يعيش في كنفه و يتربى في حجره , فقد كان النبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) يعلم ان ابا طالب رقيق الحال و عنده الكثير من العيال فأراد ان يساعده و يحمل عنه بعض الشئ و يرد اليه ما فعله معه حين كان في كفالته و رعايته , فنشأ علي منذ نعومة اظفاره على القيم النبوية و المكارم العليا فكان اول من امن من الصبيان.

و قد أمن به و صدقه الصديق الصدوق للنبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) أبو بكر الصديق و الذي كان أول من امن من الرجال . و الذي قدم نفسه و روحه و ماله في سبيل نصرة دين الله و الدفاع عن رسوله و تحمل الأذى الكثير حتى ان النبي (صلى الله علية وسلم) قال في حقه مشيدا بفضله : مالأحد عندنا يد الا كافيناه بها ماخلا ابا بكر , فان له عندنا يدا يكافيه الله تعالى بها يوم القيامة , و ما نفعني مال احد قط ما نفعني به مال ابي بكر , و ما عرضت الأسلام على احد الا كانت له كبوة - اي تردد - الا ابا بكر فانه لم يتلعثم .

                                            The Message

When the prophet (pbuh) was about to be forty he found in his heart relief to solitude and isolation . So , he used to carry his honourable chaste body and climbed Al Nour mountain carrying some food and drink to sit privitly in Heraa Grotto . He always did so in the month of Ramadan.. got away from the people of Mecca , even from his wife and children to sit alone in Heraa Grotto

In this loneliness , the prophet (pbuh) used to look at the universe around him , musing and pondering on , exploring the world and looking for reality . Indeed , the prophet (pbuh) did so as he was not convinced with what people were doing . corruption spread out the strong opressed the weak . immoralities prevailed and deaf stones that neither hear nor speak became the gods that people worship , swear by and present offerings and sacrifices for 

There was strong feeling involved him , made him deeply thoughtful . He always looked up at the sky ...the stars....the high mountains...the birds hitting the air with their delicate wings . He was then completely isolated from the world but completely obsessed with ir !!! Who created it ? Who cared for it ? Can it be those idols that people worship and call gods though can not give any benefits or harm ? Who is the creator....the ? Almighty ..the provider? Who supports the oppressed and pinishes the oppressors

In a crucial moment , Allah wanted to prevail goodness humanity . He ordered Gabrel to come dowen to the prophet (pbuh) and herald him the good news prophecy and message . Here , Gabriel pressed the prophet (pbuh) and said to him : Read , I an not read 'answered the prophet ' , Gabriel pressed the prophet hard to his bosom , left him and repeated : Read , The prophet gave the same answer . Here Gabriel said : *Read in the name of your Lord Who has created all the exists . He has created man from a clot . Read and your Lord is the Most Generous * .Al Alaq Sura

The prophet went home with his heart trembling . He entered to Khadeega Bint Khouwayled saying : Oh cover me . He repeated it twice . She did till he became calm ' the prophet said to Khadeega : I was afraid . No ' Khageega answered ' , Allah will never let you down , you keep ties with your kind ship , help the weak , give charity to the poor , welcome guests and give hand in case of calamities . Then , she accompanied him to her over aged cousin Waraqah Bin Nawfal , who was deeply aware of the gospel

Khadeega said to Warakah : Listen to your nephew , my cousin . What did you see , my nephew ? asked Waraqah . The Prophet (pbuh) told him what had happened . That is the Law Allah brought down to Moses . I wish i were a young man , I wish i were a live when your people expel you . 'said Waraqah . Would they expel me ? asked the prophet . Yes , ' answered Waraqah', none had brought like what you brought but had been antagonised . If i recognize your day , Iwill support you heartily . But Waraqah died after a while

Meanwhile , the prophet was so much longing to see the angel again . When it lingered on , he thought that the angel would never come again . He fell under the control of obsessions and misgivings to the extent that he climbed up to the top of a mountain to throw himself down . Here , Gabriel appeard to him again and said : O, Mohamed you are the Messenger of Allah and I am Gabriel , O, Mohamed you are the Messenger of Allah and I am Gabriel . The Prophet's heart became at ease and he was sure that he was the prophet and that who came down to him was Gabriel

Allah directed his Messenger to call people to his religion and to start with those closest to him ..he had to explain to then the pure fact of monotheism to remove darkness over their eyes to see the light of Allah that came down from the heaven. The Prophet (pbuh) realized that it eas an extremely hard mission particularly with the people and masters of Mecca . Yet , he assumed the mission hard , asked the help from Allah and set off into his historical great hard trip

Here , the real trip started . The prophet (pbuh) has taken the directives from Allah to call his closese people to the religion of monotheism and to help them , get rid of the blemishes of opperssion and disbelief ...they have to think mentally open their hearts to the light with which Mohamed came . The prophet (pbuh) followed the directives of his Lord : he started his call with his closest Khadeegah , his faithful wife , believed from the very beginning , she was the one who co-lived the first moments of the revelation , consequently , was the first to believe , support , side with and even sacrifice for him . She provided all the means of ease and happiness inside home to let the prophet be devoted for his Message

Ali Bin Abi Taleb , his cousin , Who was brought up under his care , also followed him directly . The prophet had known that his uncle , Abo Taleb , was somewhatpoor and had lots of Children . So , the kind prophet (pbuh) wanted to help him , share his burden and compensate him for his favour of caring for him in his childhood . This , made Ali brought up uopn the prophetical values and high principles . Consequently he was the first to believe among boys

Abo Bakr Al Seddeeq , the prophet's bosom friend , also , was among the first to follow and believe without any hesitation . He presented his soul and money to support the newborn religion and defend the prophet . Indeed , he bore a lot for the sake of Allah to the extent . That the prophet said of him : None had had a favour upon us but we compensated him except , Abo Bakr's favour that only Allah will compensate on the resurrection day ...No one's money was more useful to me than Abo Bakr's...And everybody hesitated when exposed to Islam except Abo Bakr he never hesitated accepting Islam
