The Prophet Muhammed (SAW) success rate in so many different and contrasting spheres of life has made him an outstanding personality in the history of mankind (the greatest man)
He was a sort of king, yet he lived an ordinary life. He was a brilliant military general, yet he was a peacemaker first. He was a priest that talked to the people, yet he was also a mystic philosopher that sat in solitude. He was a legislator, judge, reformer of customs, educator, orator and treasurer. all in one.
The greatness and wonder of the Prophet Muhammed (Salal lahu Alayhe Wasallam) becomes even greater when we consider that he was excellent in all of this without any formal education or any wealth. He did not read or write and he was an orphan.
Muhammed (Salal lahu Alayhe Wasallam) did not use an army or wealth to wield influence over the people. He ruled over them by capturing and winning their hearts with love.
Muhammed (Salal lahu Allayhe Wasallam) could have easily set up his family to be the royal family to rule over the empire he was setting up but instead he gave up his vast fortune to the state as charity and left the choice of his successor to his followers.
Muhammed (SAW’s) Islam just does not exist after 1500 years but it is completely intact and constantly growing religion.
What Muhammed (Salallahu Allayhe Wasallam) has been able to achieve and the manner in which he achieved it is unparalleled in the history of mankind. There is no one in the history of humanity like him, or even close to him.
