In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Book summary
Ramadan events and lessons
The sending of the Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
It's Ramadan
The first year of the Muhammadiyah mission
Corresponding to six hundred and ten AD
The time was before the sending of our Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
Suffering under the weight of ignorance
Which trapped minds and lives in narrow crucibles
Far from the breadth of knowledge to understand life and the mission of its people
And their fate after that
Therefore, false idols were the destination of this intellectual foolishness
Which did not stop at any time
The poet said
You come and people are a mess and you don't pass by
Except for an idol that has become important to my idol
And the earth is full of oppression
Every tyrant in creation has an arbitrator
When the ignorant mind was
He lies in that dark circle
He could not reach the bright horizons
Which illuminates the different aspects of life
He remained immersed in the depths of oppression and darkness
Until God allowed those internal veils to be lifted
And liberate those captive, narrow minds
With the mission of Muhammad bin Abdullah, may God bless him and grant him peace
Before that great event happened
May God give his noble companion a special preparation
Where he, peace and blessings be upon him, was seeking refuge in the cave of Harra
From the dark atmosphere of Mecca
He finds himself in that remote isolation
An atmosphere filled with mental clarity
Enveloped in spiritual transcendence
Until these repeated visits allowed him
To that distant place
About the noise of life and life
Until his fertile thought is released
In this vast universe
He contemplates the wonderful creation of God Almighty
And he reads in the features of the bleak face of life
His need to shine with the light of truth
And in that sublime spot
He was the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
It overlooks Mecca and all of existence
He sees error spreading its wings on every side
Then he will see guidance for a time
These unwanted manifestations disappear
For the path of truth and justice
And in the cave of Harra
Psychological and spiritual preparation has been done
For a prophet of the end times
And the heart of Muhammad became before
The Prophet after
Fit to receive heaven's revelation
And communication with the higher world
And bear that great responsibility
With which he will face the multitudes of temptations
Which gathers in his straight path
Wherever you go
While he is in his safe haven
His pure mind swims around him
As King Gabriel, peace be upon him
He comes to him without introduction
You live in its splendor
They open his ways at night
In an empty place without a friend or a companion
He asks him to read
And as a result
He goes to mankind and jinn as a prophet and messenger
Al-Nada' Umm Abdullah
Al-Siddiqa, the daughter of Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with her
She tells us about that big event
From the cave to the house
From the house to Waraqah bin Nawfal, may God have mercy on him
On the authority of Aisha, Mother of the Believers, she said:
The first thing that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, began with
From revelation
Good vision in sleep
He did not see a vision
Except it came like the break of dawn
Then he loved the open air
He joined Ghar, free
So he swore at it
He said
And devout worship
Numbered nights
Before he returns to his family and supplies himself for that
Then he returns to Khadija
He will be provided with the same
Until the truth suddenly came to him
He is in the cave of Harra
Then the king came to him
And he said
Read
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
I am not a reader
He said
So he took me and pressed me until I was exhausted
Then he sent me and said
Read
I said
I am not a reader
So he took me and covered me the second time
Until I reached the point of effort
Then he sent me and said
Read
I said
I am not a reader
So he took me and covered me for the third time
Until I reached the point of effort
Then he sent me and said
Read in the name of your Lord who created
Man was created from a clot
Read, and your Lord is the Most Generous
Who taught with the pen
Teach a person what he did not know
So the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, returned with it, his heart shaking
So he entered upon Khadija, daughter of Khuwaylid, may God be pleased with her
He said: Zamiluni, Zamiluni
They hugged him until he lost his fear
He said to Khadija and told her the news
I feared for myself
Khadija said no
By God, God will never disgrace you
You will reach the womb
And bear it all
And you gain nothing
And the guest arrives
He was appointed to the right deputies
So Khadija set off with him
Until Waraqah Ibn Nawfal Ibn Asad Ibn Abd al-Uzza brought him
Khadija's cousin
He was a Christian in pre-Islamic times
He was writing the Hebrew Bible
So he writes from the Bible in Hebrew whatever God wants to write
He was a great sheikh like me
Khadija said to him
My cousin
Hear from your nephew
Waraqah said to him
My brother, what do you see?
So the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, informed him
News of what he saw
Waraqah said to him
This is the law that God revealed to Moses
I wish it had a trunk
I wish I were alive when your people expel you
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Or their directors
He said yes
No man has ever done anything like what you did
But come back
And if your day catches up with me
I give you a decisive victory
Then the paper broke out that died
And the period of revelation
In this story we notice the following
Firstly
The effect of a sensible wife who reassures her husband
And calm him down
His calmness is linked to words of soothing and security
When he is afraid and terrified
This is a great virtue for Khadija, may God be pleased with her
Ibn Ishaq said
Khadija was the first to believe in God and His Messenger
And he believed what he said
Thus, God eased the burden on the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
He would not hear anything that he disliked, whoever responded to him or denied him, and that made him sad
Unless God will relieve him of it if he returns to it
So you strengthen him, ease him, and believe him
People's affairs were easy for him, may God have mercy on her
Secondly
Optimism about the bright past
To illuminate future prospects
If the darkness of reality disturbs her
Third
The importance of referring to adults for knowledge, wisdom and experience
When engaged and problematic matters
Fourth
News of the mission of the Messenger of God and what is related to it
It was something that was passed down by generations familiar with previous prophecies
She longs to be among the people of her generation and a supporter of her Messenger
This was the case with Waraqa Ibn Nawfal and others like him
Fifth
With these good words and sincere feelings
And the previous correct religion
Waraqah Ibn Nawfal believed in the mission of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
Before the Messenger of God went to invite the people
Al-Hakim narrated in his Mustadrak on the authority of Aisha, may God be pleased with her, who said:
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
Do not insult Waraqah Ibn Nawfal
I have seen one or two gardens for him
Date of the prophecy event
The scholars agreed that the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, was sent
It was Monday
According to the hadith of Abu Qathada Al-Ansari, may God be pleased with him, he said
He was asked about fasting on Mondays
He said that was the day I was born and the day I was sent or revealed to me
As for the month of the mission
Some scholars disagreed about it
Ibn al-Qayyim said
There is no dispute that his mission, may God bless him and grant him peace, was on Monday
There was disagreement about the month of resurrection, and it was said
For the past eight days of Rabi` al-Awwal
Year 41 of the Year of the Elephant
This is what most say
And it was said
Rather, it was during Ramadan
These people used the words of God Almighty as evidence
The month of Ramadan in which the Qur’an was revealed
He said
The first thing God Almighty honored him with was his prophecy
The Qur’an was revealed to him
Alas, this group is gone
Among them is Yahya Al-Sarsari
Where he says in his potty
Forty came to him and shone
The sun of prophecy from him in Ramadan
Which seems likely, and God knows best
It is time for the Qur’an to be revealed to him
It is the time of his prophecy and his mission to the people
It has been mentioned that it is more likely that this happened during Ramadan
Some scholars have stated this
Ibn Hisham said
Even if it is the month that God Almighty intended
It has what he wanted of his dignity
From the year in which God Almighty sent him
That month is the month of Ramadan
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, went to Harrar
He also went out next to him
Even if it was the night that God honored him with his message
And have mercy on the servants with it
Gabriel, peace be upon him, came to him by the command of God Almighty
Atiya Muhammad Salem said
He was known among the people as a prophet of Iqra
And he sent with Al-Muddaththir
But in this same Surah there is the meaning of the message
When we mentioned that reading is in the name of your Lord
A notification that it is sent from his Lord to those to whom it is read
It contains proof of the message from the beginning of the revelation
Lessons from the event of prophecy
First
Prophecy is a manifestation of God Almighty’s mercy toward His servants
For God Almighty loves them to be guided to the path of truth
That is why he sent his noble messengers to them
Evangelists and warners
It is a blessing
He thanked God for it
Following its owner, peace and blessings be upon him
Secondly
Big missions require great psychological and physical preparation
Hard work also lacks previous training
Third
Standing up naturally is a scary thing
It does not scratch the wall of monotheism and faith
Fourth
A good wife and a good friend
Yes, help in alleviating the horror
Help to carry out major works
Fifth
Education and reading
May require repetition and force
Until the information is consolidated
The learner is trained to be patient, patient, and endure hardships
