The divine speech

This is the Primary Mission of the Messenger of Allah

Allah Almighty has entrusted the Messenger – peace and blessings of Allah be upon him – to carry the message of Islam to all people in the holy Qur’an. The objective of the holy Qur’an is to guide people to the path of upright and good. The Prophet has conveyed the message with complete honesty. To achieve this goal, the Prophet has endured all kinds of abuse, hatred and rumors with unshakable faith that Allah Almighty will grant him victory. The Prophet insisted to continue the divine call without fear or hesitation, as Allah Almighty commissioned him. Allah Almighty completed the religion, and completed the nation’s grace in the farewell pilgrim.

This is clear in the verse: “Today have I complemented for you your religion and made all grace abound in you. And I have chosen for you Islam as the acceptable system of faith and worship “(Al Maidah 3).

In this verse, people are informed of the completion of the message, which Allah revealed to the Messenger. The aim of the message is to guide people as a light that brings them out of the darkness to the dainty path. The message of Islam is the last of the divine messages to people. It is the conclusion of the messages that Allah Almighty has deposited in the Holy Qur’an and the included divine legislation and calling people to the faith of Islam. Islam calls people to believe in the one sole God and to believe in Prophet Mohammed and in all the apostles and prophets before him. In the divine discourse to people, Allah Almighty placed the values ​​of justice and equality and the spread of peace and cooperation between all human beings. The divine legislation regulates the relationship between Allah Almighty and his creation and regulates the relationship between man and his society. It regulates the relationship between man and his parents and with his spouse. It clarifies the rights of orphans and the regulation of the relationship between man and other human beings in all kinds of relationships. It encourages people to derive the laws governing their lives from the divine legislation based on mercy and justice.

And Allah Almighty reserved the right to calculate the judge people on the Day of Judgment as the Almighty says: “Unto Us shall be their return. And then, their judgment will be Our concern”  )Al Ghashiyyah: 25).

The main task that the Messenger of Allah was chosen to implement

Allah Almighty has chosen the Messenger from among His creation. The aim was to carry the message of Allah Almighty to all people. In the holy Qur’an, Allah Almighty says: “Say to them O Muhammad: «I am only a mortal like you, but I am prompted by Allah to impart to you the knowledge inspired to me. It emphasizes that your Allah is One and only, the Creator of the whole and of all in all». «Therefore, he who acknowledges Resurrection and Judgement and hopes to be welcomed in Allah’s heavenly realm and be a recipient of His mercy and blessings will have to imprint his deeds with wisdom and piety and never to incorporate with Him, other deities nor invoke besides Him any».. (Al Kahf: 110)

Also, the Almighty said to his messenger: “« Say to them: «Praise be to Allah and extolled are His glorious attributes; am I in any respect but a human Messenger!». (Al Isra: 93)

The Almighty describes the mission of His Noble Messenger by saying: “Allah has been gracious to those whose hearts have been touched with the divine hand. He raised in their midst a Messenger who is related to them by kinship and by spiritual qualities into which they all entered. He is a Messenger who shall recite to them His revelations, impart sanctity to them and teach them the Book -the Quran- and acquaint their hearts with wisdom, notwithstanding that they were once lost in the maze of error and liberally swam in immoral pleasure.. (Al-‘Imran: 164)

Allah sent His Messenger to teach people and explain to them the divine legislation and explains to them the goals of Allah’s orders to his creation, where the Almighty says: You people have always had an exemplar of the Messenger of Allah who displays a good quality as well as a magnificent attribute of a great master whose conduct induces imitation by the one in whose bosom hope springs eternal of Allah’s mercy and of the bliss of the hereafter and applies remembrance to Allah often enough. (Al Ahzab: 21).

Allah sent His Prophet to teach people how to follow His divine legislations and attributes, which Allah has prescribed for them in a way that elevates man with values ​​of faith and lofty ethics.
