MAULID NABIYI (MAULIDI) BY BABA ALI MUSTAPHA



             

Maulid Nabiyi (Maulidi) is celebrated by Sunni (Ah al Sunna Wal Ja’ma) Muslims throughout the Muslim world to commemorate the birth of Prophet Mohammed every year. It is usually observed in Rabial Auwal, the third month of the Islamic Calender.
            To observe this ceremony with my fellow Sunni (Ah al Sunna Wal Ja’ma) Muslims throughout the world this year I put up this research to know more about Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)’s morals and what fair-minded impartial non Muslims thinkers tell us about the Messenger (SAW).
            In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Ever Merciful.
            All perfect praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. Peace and blessings of Allah be upon Muhammad Ibn Abdullah, the seal of the Prophets, the best of the First and the latter generations, Our Master and Ideal.
            He is the possessor of the Hawdh (Basin) from which the believers will drink in the day of Judgement, the banner under which the believers will gather, the station of praise and glory, the bright marks on his face, hands and feet (i.e. the traces of ablution). He is the One who was mentioned in Al-Tawraah (Torah) and Al-Injeel (Gospel), and supported by Jibreel (Gabriel).
            His Lord distinguished him with the Al-Israa’ and Al-Miraj (Night journey to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa and Ascent to Heaven). He split the moon for him, made cure and blessing in his Saliva and sweat. With his invocation the rain was sent down. To him the tree submitted. Upon him, camels and stones sent their salutations. He was made victorious by awe, (Allah frightened his enemies at a distance of one month’s journey). He is the master of the sons of Adam, and he is not boasting.
            The evidence of his Prophethood are numerous and his noble manners and attributes are countless.
            The best of creation in his childhood, the most purified in his youth, the superior in his old age, the most righteous throughout his lifetime, the most just of judges, and the bravest in the battlefield. Allah the Almighty endowed him with every sublime moral and refined manner, purified him from every impurity, guarded him against every slip, taught him good manners and taught him well and endowed him with every noble trait. Thus, no one is like him in his perfection, nobility, truthfulness, honesty, asceticisin, bashfulness and chastity.
Such is the Messenger of Allah (SAW). All those who knew him well acknowledged his nobility, excellent nature, kind-heartedness, gentleness, wisdom, intelligent, firm determination and leniency.

What fair minded thinkers said about the bestman who ever lived (Muhammad (SAW)
No one can read about the Magnanimous manners and the noble character of the Messenger (SAW) without expressing their admiration of his character and their bedazzlement by it. Thus, it is no wander, that we see such fragrant praise fair testimonies from many of those who have not reverted to Islam and of which history recorded their quotations and in their books and heritage, to provide firm evidence and decisive proof of his sublime morals and characteristics (SAW).
Fair minded impartial non Muslim thinkers tell us about the Messenger (SAW) Muhammad (SAW) in the eyes of the Orientalist.
1. The American Orientalist, Washington Irving said, “Muhammad (SAW) was the last and greatest Prophet Allah has sent to call people to worship Him Alone” (Excerpted from Qaaloo ‘an Al-Islam (What they said about Islam) by Professor Imaad Addeen Khaleel).
2. The Spanish Orientalist, Jan Lake, in his book The Arabs said: “The life of Muhammad cannot be described using any words that are better than what Allah says; ‘And we have not sent you, (O Muhammad), except as a mercy to the world’) (Quran 21:107). Actually, Muhammad was a real mercy, and I ask for blessings upon passionately and ardently”.
3. The Italian Orientalist, Laura Veccia Vagelieri said: Muhammad, who always held on to the divine principles, was very tolerant especially with those who believe in One God. He knew how to have much patience with pagans, ever showing deliberation” ‘Apologia dell’ Islamismo (translated into English as: An interpretation of Islam by Laura Veccia Vaglieri).
4. The French Orientalist, Gustave Lee Bon, said: “Muhammad met all the harm and torture with much patience and endurance. Muhammad treated the people of Quraysh, who were his enemies for twenty years, with kindness and forbearance”. (La Civilization des Arabes, (The civilization of Arabs) by Gustave Le Bon).

Muhammad (SAW) in the eyes of the Philosophers:
1. The renowned British Philosopher and Playwright, Sir Bernard Shaw, said: “I have studied the life of the Messenger of Islam, very well, time after time, and I have found nothing but moral standards as they should be. I always wished that Islam would become the way of the world (Ar-Rasool, Sallallahu alayhi wasallam, fe uyoon Gharbiyyah Munsifah by Al Husaini Ma’di).
2. The English Philosopher, Thomas Carlyle, who was said to be the best British Mind after Shakespeare said: “This great, kind hearted merciful wise man had other thoughts in his mind than worldly ambitions, and other intentions than seeking authority and high status”. (Ar-Rasool , Sallallahu alayhi wasallam, fe uyoon Gharbiyyah Munsifah by Al Husaini Ma’di).

Muhammad (SAW) in the eyes of Historians.
1. The British Historian, Sir William Muir, said: Mahomet, Peace be upon Him, was characterized by his distinct and emphatic speech. His religion is uncomplicated. He did amazing actions. Actually, history has never witnessed a reformer like the Prophet of Islam who increased awareness and revived the proper meaning of noble manners and virtue in such short time.
            He added: A remarkable feature was the urbanity and consideration with which Mohamet treated even the most insignificant of his followers. Modesty and kindness, patience, self denial, and generosity, pervaded his conduct and riveted the affections of all around him. He was not known ever to refuse an invitation to the house of even of the meanest, nor to decline a proffered present however small. When seated by a friend, he did not haughtily advance his knees toward him. He possessed the rare faculty of making each the individual in a company think he was the most fevered guest. When he met anyone rejoicing, he would seize him eagerly and cordially by his hand. With the bereaved and afflicted he sympathized tenderly. He share his food, even in times of scarcity, with others; and was sedulously solicitous for the personal comfort of everyone about him”. (The Life of Mahomet by William Muir and Ar-Rasool Sallahu alaihu wasallam by Sa’eed Hawa).

Muhammad (SAW) in the eyes of Poets and Linguists:
1. The famous French Poet, Alphonse de Lamartine said: “I have studied the life of Muhammad well and realized the greatness of it”. (Voyage en Orient (Travelling to the Orient).
2. The well known German Poet and Writer, Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, said: “I have searched the history of humanity for a role model for man and found it in the Arab Prophet Muhammad” (Allahs Sonne Uber dem Abendland (Allah’s sun over the occident) by Sigrid Hunke).
3. The French Writer, Edward Montet, Professor of Oriented Languages at the University of Geneva said in his book Muhammad and the Quran: “Muhammad, Peace be upon him, had magnanimous manners, sublime morality, sweet speech and soundness of judgement, truthfulness of words and a firm belief in what he did and said”.
            These are testimonies of some European Orientalist, Philosophers, historians and poets about the noble character of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), the seal of the Prophet Muhammad. We aim to prove that the Western people acknowledge the Prophethood of Muhammad (SAW), his noble traits and his favor that will last until the day of judgement over mankind in all part of the world.
            Although Christians European fanaticism is always partial and make no attempt to be objective, there are still fair-minded thinkers who affirmed the truth unequivocally. However, the dominant western cultural trends that are filled with fanaticism, stubbornness and self centeredness explored every possible avenue to hide and suppress these obvious facts, so that European lay person would not know these facts that his fellow countrymen had proved true about Islam, its Prophet and his universal everlasting message. All such things are done only to realize two aims:
            First, to keep the Christians of Europe away from Islam whose effectiveness in attacking the human personality was evidently proved. In fact, the people in the West are afraid of Islam because of the steady decline in the number of those converting to Christianity in the world inspite of the enormous amounts of money and time they spend to make people Christians.
            The well known evangelist, Lawrence Brown said, “ we have found that the real danger for us is Islam and its ability to expand and to submit people to its teachings and its remarkable vitality”. He added: “the real universal danger in this age is Muslims. So we have to unify our powers, mobilize armies and be aware of it.
            …..the cause of Islam is totally different from the Jewish One. The religion of Muslims differs from that of the Jews. It calls all people to embrace it. It is spreading among the Christians themselves and among non-christians. As a matter of fact, Muslims engaged in a long struggle in Europe. Muslims, as the Evangelist view, have never been a trodden-upon minority….Therefore, we see evangelist supporting the Jews against Muslims in Palestine. We used to fear the Jews, the yellow danger (Japan when it defeated China), and the Bolsherik danger, however, none of those dangers have been realized as we expected. We have found that the Jews are our friends and thus, whoever oppresses them will be our sworn enemy. Furthermore, we have discovered that the Bolsheriks are our allies. As for the yellow people, there are big democratic states resisting them. Indeed, the real danger lie in the system of Islam” (At Tabsheer wal-isti-maar (Evangelization and occupation) by Dr. Mustafa Al-Khaalidy and Dr. Amr Farrookh, excerpted from Al-Bayaan Magazine, Issue no. 174 p.92 and Ar-Rasol fi uyoon Gharbiyya Munsifah (The Messenger (PBUH) in fair minded Western eyes).
            Second, guaranteeing the continuation of the conflict between the West and Islam, and their disagreement for the interest of Zionism and free masonry that believe they are the first party to be harmed by any agreement or serious dialogue between Islam and the West.
            Finally, just last two weeks, Mr. Donald Trump, the President of U.S.A. breaking all the international laws and United Nation Resolutions, recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. It is the biggest mistake, the government of U.S.A. ever did. The only option for the Muslim countries is not violent, but for the organization of Islamic Countries (O.I.C) with strong members about 63 countries and headquarters at Jidda Saudi Arabia to call emergency meeting of its foreign affairs ministers and inform them to recall their ambassadors from Washington (U.S.A.) and sent packing the ambassadors of U.S.A and Israel from their soil. In addition all the member countries of organization of Islamic Countries (O.I.C) should refuse to recognize New York as headquarters of United Nation. UN either moved its headquarters to either London or Berlin (Germany) the neutral ground or they quit the organization (UN) and set up a parallel organization for the Muslims. That is the only solution.

ISAAC NEWTON (The Greatest Scientist Ever Lived) By Baba Ali Mustapha


                This research is the concluding part of the research work that was posted on the internet on Friday 10th November 2017, under the title 'MUHAMMAD (PBUH) THE GREATEST, where Michael H. Hart chose Muhammed to lead the list of the world's most influential persons in history in his book, but what surprise many is that he listed ISAAC NEWTON second, in series below Muhammad, but above even his Prophet Jesus Christ who is third in the series and Moses who is in No. 16 in his book. So who is that Isaac Newton.
                I here by privileged to present to you the entire chapter of Isaac Newton, from the second Michael Hart's book THE 100 A RANKING OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PERSON IN HISTORY. After that i will list the remaining 98 names of most influential people in history.
2. ISAAC NEWTON 1642-1727
                Isaac Newton, the greatest and most influential scientist who ever lived, was born in Woolsthope, England, on Christmas day, 1642, the same year that Galilio died, like Muhammad he was born after the death of his father. As a child, he showed considerable mechanical aptitude, and was very clever with his hands. although, a bright child, he was inattentive in school and did not attract much attention. When he was a teenager, his mother took him out of school, hoping that he would become a successful farmer fortunately she was persuaded that his principal talents lay elsewhere, and at eighteen, he entered Cambridge University. There he rapidly absorbed what was then known of Science and Mathematic, and soon move on his independent research. Between his twenty-first and twenty-seventh years, he laid the foundations for the scientific theories that sequently revolutionized the world.
                The middle of the seventeenth century was a period of great scientific ferment. The invention of the telescope near the beginning of the century had revolutionized the entire study of astronomy. The English Francis Bacon and the French Philosopher Rene Descartes had both urged scientists throughout Europe to cease relying on the authority of Aristotle and to experiment and observe for themselves. What Bacon and Descartes had preached, the great Galilio had practiced. His astronomical observations, using the newly invented telescope, had revolutionized the study of astronomy and his mechanical experiments had established what is known as Newton's First Law of motion.
                Other great scientists, such as William Harvey, who discovered the circulation of the blood, and Johannes Kepler, who discovered the laws describing the motions of the planets around the sun, were bringing new basic information to the scientific community. Still, pure science was largely a play thing of intellectual’s and as yet there was no proof that when applied to technology, science could revolutionize the whole mode of human life, as Francis a Bacon has predicted.
                Although Copernicus and Galileo had swept aside some of the misconceptions of ancient science and contributed to a greater understanding of the universe, no set of Principles had been formulated that could turn this collection of seemingly unrelated fact into a unified theory with which to make scientific predictions. It was Isaac Newton who supplied that unified theory and set Modern science on the course which it has followed ever since.
                Newton was always reluctant to publish his results, and although he had formulated the basic ideas behind most of his work by 1669, many of his theories were not made public until much later. The first of his discoveries to be published was his ground breaking work on the nature of light. In a series of careful experiments, Newton had discovered that ordinary white light is a mixture of all the colors of the rainbow. He had also made a careful analysis of the consequences of the laws of the reflection and refraction of light. Using these laws, he had in 1668 designed and actually built the first reflection telescope, the type of telescope that is used in most major astronomical observations today. These discoveries together with the results of many other optical experiments which he performed, were presented by Newton before the British Royal Society when he was twenty-nine years old.
                Newton's achievements in the optics alone would probably entitle him to a place on this list; however, they considerably less important than his accomplishments in pure mathematics and mechanics. His major mathematical contribution was his invention of integral calculus, which he probably devised when he was twenty-three or twenty four years old. That modern mathematics, is not merely the seed out of which of modern mathematical theory has grown, it is also the essential tool without which most of the subsequent progress in modern science would have been impossible. Had Newton done nothing else, the invention of integral calculus by itself would have entitled him to a fairly high place on this list.
                Newton's most important discoveries however, were in the field of mechanics, the science of how material object move. Galileo had discovered the first law of motion, which describes the motion of objects if they are not subjected to any exterior forces. In practice, of course, all objects are subjected to exterior forces, and the most in important question in mechanics is how subject move under such circumstances. This problem was solved by Newton in his famous second law of motion, which may rightly be considered the most fundamental law of classical physics. The second law (described mathematically by the equation F=Ma) states that the acceleration of an object (i.e. the rate at which its velocity changes (is equal to the net force on the object divided by the object mass. To these first two laws, Newton added his famous third law of motion (which states that for each action-i.e, physical force-there is an equal and opposite reaction), and the most famous of his scientific laws, the law of universal gravitation. This set of four laws, taken conjointly, from a unified system by means of which virtually all macroscopic mechanical systems, form the swinging of a pendulum to the motion of the planets in the orbit  around the sun, may be investigated and their behaviour-predicted. Newton did not merely state these laws of mechanics; have himself using the Mathematical tools of the calculus, showed how these fundamental laws could be applied to the solution of actual problems.
                Newton's laws can be and have been applied to an extremely broad range of scientific and engineering problems. During his lifetime, the most dramatic application of his laws was made in the field of astronomy. In this area, too Newton led the way. In 1687, he published his greatest work, the mathematical principle of natural philosophy (usually referred to simple, as Principles) , in which he presented his law of gravitation and laws of motion. Newton showed how these laws could be used to predict precisely the motions of the planets around the sun. The principal problem of dynamical astronomy that is, the problem of predicting exactly the positions and motion s of the stars and planets was thereby completely solved by Newton in one magnificent sweep. For this reason, Newton often considered the greatest of all astronomers.
                What then is our assessment Newton scientific importance? if one look at the index of encyclopedia of science, one will find more references(perhaps two or three times as many) to Newton and to Vis law and discoveries than any other individual scientist. Furthermore, one should consider what other great scientists have said about Newton. Leibniz, no friend of Sir Isaac's, and a man with whom he engaged in bitter dispute wrote " Taking mathematics from the beginning of the world to the time when Newton lived, what he has done is much better part. Te great French scientist Uplale wrote: The principia is pre-eminent above any other production of human genius", Lagrange frequently stated that Newton was the greatest genius who ever lived while Ernst Mach, writing in 1901 said, "All that has been accomplished in mathematics since Vies day Vas been a deductive, formal and mathematical development of mechanics on the basis of Newton’s laws", this perhaps is the crux of Newton's great accomplishment; he found science a Vadgepodge of isolated facts, and laws, capable of describing some phenomenal but of predicting only a few, he left us, a unified system of laws, which were capable of application to an enormous range of physical phenomena and which could be used to make exact predictions.
                In a brief summary like this, it is not possible to detail all of Newton's discoveries, consequently, many of the lesser one have been omitted, although they were important achievements in their own right. Newton made significant contributions to thermodynamic (the study of heat) and to acoustic (the study of sound); he enunciated the extremely important physical principles of conservation of angular momentums; he discovered the binomial theorem on mathematics and he gave the first cogent explanation of the origin of the stars.
                Now, one might grant that Newton  was by far the greatest most influential scientist who ever lived but still ask why he should be ranked higher than such major political figure as Alexander the great or George Washington, and ahead of such major religious figures as Jesus and Gautama Buddha. My own view is that even the political changes are of significance, it is fair to say that most people in the world were living the same way 500 years after Alexander's death as their forebears had lived five centuries, before his time. Similarly, in most of their daily activities, the majority of human beings were living the same way in 1500 A.D. as human beings shad been living in 1500 B.C. In the last five centuries however with the rise of modern science, the everyday life of most human being has been completely revolutionized. We dress differently, eat completely different food, work at different jobs and spend our leisure time a great deal differently than people did in 1500 A.D. Scientific discoveries have not only revolutionized technology and economic, they have also completely changed politics, religious thinking, art and philosophy. Few aspect of human activity have remained unchanged by this scientific revolution, and it is for this reason that so many scientists and inventors are to be found on this list, Newton was not only the brilliant of all scientists, he was also the most influential figure in the development of scientific theory, and therefore well merits a position at or near the top of any list of world's most influential persons.
                Newton died in 1727, and was buried in Westminster Abbey, the first scientist to be accorded that honor.
