MUHAMMAD THE PERFECT ROLE MODEL

God sent Prophet Muhammad, a perfect role model to teach and guide humanity.

Prophet Muhammad was a good man. He was very honest. He never any lie. People of his community trusted him. People kept their valuables in his home. They knew that their goods will be safe with the Prophet. He was a very trustworthy man. Prophet was also very just. He always acted fairly. People used to call him to sort of disputes. If there was a fight among members of the community, the people called the Prophet to come and judge between them. They knew he would not take sides. Prophet would always hear everyone. He would give his own honest and fair judgement. People would accept Prophet’s final decision.

Prophet Muhammad taught three things to the people. (1) How to live a good live. (2) Who is the God the Creator of the Universe. (3) What would happen to the soul after death.

Holy Prophet said that God loves life of honesty and justice. If you live your life honestly you will be happy. Acting fairly and justly is what brings you peace of mind and happiness. Therefore, you should give up lying, cheating and deceiving others. You should try to speak the truth. You should behave as fairly as you can. When you grow old and die, you will go to heaven. But if you continue to lie to people, then God will not like you. People will not like you either. If you treat people unfairly, people will not like you either. If you did bad things in your life then you will be punished on Judgement Day. It comes in the next life. People will be resurrected by God. They will have to account for their actions.

Prophet said God is our Creator. He created the whole universe with a big bang. There is only one God. There are no other gods. He is the Greatest. He made the laws that run the universe. He created you in your mother's womb. God is the one who puts a soul in your body. God gave you life when you were tiny baby. God is perfect. God is not a physical thing. He is Light. Our eyes cannot see Him. God sees you all the time. He can hear you everywhere. He knows what is in your heart. He knows everything. God is all powerful. He can reward you or punish you depending on your behaviour. God has power over all things.
