CHARACTERISTICS of the PROPHET MUHAMMAD

VISIONARY The Cave of Hira, where Muhammad received his first revelation from Allah. Muhammad spent time alone in the caves around his hometown of Mecca. In them, he heard a voice speaking to him. He came to realize that the voice was the Angel Gabriel, Allah’s messenger. He understood that the angel was revealing to him messages from the same God who had spoken to earlier prophets.

PREACHER At first, Muhammad was confused by Allah’s messages. With the encouragement of his wife Khadijah, he began to preach the message to others. He served as a worthy messenger of God and convinced many people of the truth of God’s message as it was revealed to him.

POLITICAL LEADER Muhammad did not view Allah’s message as limited only to spiritual concerns For him, Allah’s word was meant to rule all areas of life. In effect, Muhammad governed the cities of Medina and Mecca. He also ruled over other vast amounts of territory that was conquered during his life.

MILITARY LEADER Muhammad did not speak out against military actions. Rather, he saw the use of violence in the defense of Allah’s message to be acceptable and appropriate. He often led troops into battle.

MONOTHEIST In a region dominated by polytheists, Muhammad strongly affirmed the belief in only one God. At his death, when some of his followers wanted to proclaim him God, his successor Abu Bakr, forbid it. There is only one God: Mohammad was God’s messenger.

MORALIST Arabs of Muhammad’s time followed a “might makes right” morality. Those in power did as they pleased; those without power made do as best as they could. To address this, Muhammad preached a strict moral code by which all people must abide. A Muslim of whatever degree of wealth or power must follow the same rules set down in Qur’an as any other Muslim.

EGALITARIAN Muhammad stood for equality. In his vision, everyone shares a similar relationship to the almighty Allah; everyone must surrender to God’s will. When Muslims pray together, all form a straight line, no one stands out as occupying a privileged position. Women share a separate but equal position with Muslim men.
