Celebrating the Birthday of the Prophet (ﷺ)
The commands mentioned in the Qur`aan and Sunnah to follow the laws of Allaah and His Messenger and the prohibitions of introducing innovations into the religion are quite clear. Allaah says that which translates as: “Say, [O Muhammad], ‘If you should love Allaah, then follow me, [So] Allaah will love you and forgive you your sins.’ ” (Aal ‘Imraan: 31) “Follow, [O Mankind], what has been revealed to you from your Lord and do not follow other than Him any allies. Little do you remember.” (Al-A’raaf: 3) “And [Moreover], this is My path, which is straight, so follow it; and do not follow [other] ways, for you will be separated from His way.” (Al-An‘aam: 153) READ MORE - PDF
Life of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)
How It All Began Nearly four thousand years ago, in the Sumerian town of Ur in the valley of the river Euphrates, lived a young man named Abraham. The people of Ur had once worshipped Allah but as time passed they forgot the true religion and started praying to idols, statues made of wood or clay and sometimes even of precious stones. Even as a small child Abraham could not understand how his people, and especially his father, could make these images with their own hands, call them gods, and then worship them. He had always refused to join his people when they paid respect to these statues. Instead he would leave the town and sit alone, thinking about the heavens and the world about him. He was sure his people were doing wrong and so alone he searched for the right way. One clear night as he sat staring at the sky he saw a beautiful shining star, so beautiful that he cried out: "This must be Allah!" He looked at it in awe for some time, until suddenly it began to fade and then it disappeared. He turned away in disappointment saying: "I love not things that set." (Qur'an 6 .77) READ MORE - PDF

Storeis of the Quran by Ibn Katheer
Allah the Almighty says: {And (O Muhammad (Peace be upon him» recite to them (the Jews) the story of the two sons of Adam (Habil and Qabil) in truth; when each offered a sacrifice (to Allah), it was accepted from the one but not from the other. The latter said to the former: " I will surely kill you." The former said: "Verily, Allah accepts only from those who are Al-Muttaqun (the pious)." "If you do stretch your hand against me to kill me, I shall never stretch my hand against you to kill you: for I fear Allah, the Lord of the `Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists)." "Verily, I intend to let you draw my sin on yourself as well as yours, then you will be one of the dwellers of the Fire; and that is the recompense of the Zalimin (polytheists and wrong-doers);" So the Nafs (self) of the other (latter one) encouraged him and made fair-seeming to him the murder of his brother; he murdered him and became one of the losers; Then Allah sent a crow who scratched the ground to show him to hide the dead body of his brother; He (the murderer) said: "Woe to me! Am I not even able to be as this crow and to hide the dead body of my brother?" Then he became one of those who regretted}. (Al-- Ma'idah, 27-31) READ MORE - PDF
Why Did the Prophet Muhammad(ﷺ)Marry Aisha the Young Girl
Is the Purpose Criticizing the Marriage of Young Girls or Distorting the Picture of Prophet Muhammad?

The Age of Consent in Most Countries Worldwide! Is it Logical to judge a Marriage Case that took Place before 1400 Years under the Laws of the 1st Century? Brides in Africa are Younger than Ten?

We believe in all the Prophets and Messengers
The Messengers were sent as a Mercy from Allah to mankind because of their dire need for the Messengers. Neither the worldly affairs of mankind nor their religious affairs can be established except through the (guidance with which the) Messengers (are sent with). Allah has made the Prophets a means between Him and His creation - a means which informs mankind about Allah, and identifies for them what is beneficial or harmful for them. A messenger explains the rulings; - the recommended, the prohibited and the permissible. He describes what is beloved to Allah and what is detestable to Him. (Even intellect is insufficient in this regard) because intellect - although it Mankind's need for the Messengers is thus, more severe than their need for food and drink. READ MORE - PDF
