Our prophet had predicted that Islam will enter the home of every believer and disbeliever alike.… |
Dear readers, prophet Muhammad came with the great message of Islam but atheists are still repeating the same words that other atheists said over 1400 years ago: Islam is only myths and superstitions! I would like to say that our great Prophet at the beginning of the Calling and in a position that no one can imagine that Islam would spread to the number we see today has told about this!
Let us now explore this recent scientific study then display the evidence from the Quran and the Sunnah that Islam is the Truth.
The results of the latest American study:
In a documented scientific study which is considered the largest of its kind done so far, it has been revealed that the number of Muslims in the world reached more than billion and six hundred million Muslims. Even though that the study states that Islam comes second in terms of the number of followers, however, we are certain that it is the first.
Although the number of Christians in the world reached more than two billion followers, however, most of them aren't religious. This means that if we take the percentage of the true followers of both Christianity and Islam, we'd find out that the number of Muslims transcends any other religion in the world. For example, in the Muslim world there are hundreds of thousands of mosques which will be completely filled with worshipers on Friday Prayers at least. This indicates the great turnout for prayer and that the percentage of true Muslims is in fact very great. Secondly, to confirm even further, the number of pilgrims amounts to more than two million Muslims who gather in one place every year. However, one can't say the same if we went to the worship places for non Muslims. Perhaps we'll even see many churches that have been abandoned long ago and became merely a place for rituals and holidays.
Evidence from the Quran and Sunnah on the truth of Islam:
In a great ayah in which Allah has vowed to bring forth this religion and make it the most widely spread despite the great opposition from atheists; Allah syas:" Fain would they extinguish God's Light with their mouths, But God will not allow But that His Light should be Perfected, even though the Unbelievers May detest (it). 33. It is He Who hath sent His Apostle with Guidance And the Religion of Truth, To proclaim it Over all religion, Even though the Pagans May detest (it)." (Repentance).
These words can only come from absolute complete confidence in the spread of islam. Lets observe this wonderful expression: " To proclaim it Over all religion" i.e. to make it the most followed religion in the world which is indeed the case we clearly see today.
In the Sunnah of our Prophet, Muhammad has asked Allah to make the most followed Prophet on Judgment Day [ from the series of Sahih Hadith] and we see today how Allah is answering this prayer for his Beloved Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him).
In addition, there is a Hadith in which Prophet Muhammad says:" “This matter (Islam) will keep spreading as far as the night and day reach, until Allah will not leave a house made of mud or hair, but will make this religion enter it, while bringing might to a mighty person (a Muslim) and humiliation to a disgraced person (who rejects Islam); might with which Allah elevates Islam (and its people), and disgrace with which Allah humiliates disbelief (and its people).”
And today my dear friends Islam has reached everyone through the media and T.V. it has entered every house everywhere just as our Prophet has told us. If we ask anyone about Islam, we'd find that they'd heard about it and that our Prophet's promise has come true which is a miracle that testifies for His honesty.
Despite the vicious wars fought against our religion day and night and cost millions, yet Islam is spreading indeed. Furthermore, the CNN Website has confessed that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world!
My question for you, fellow believer is what have we given for our religion? Have we participated in spreading it and delivering its message to non-Muslims? Have we thought about guiding a person to it making it better than the earth and everything in it? We ask of Allah to be of those whom Prophet Muhammad has said:" By Allah, if Allah were to guide one man through you it would be better for you than all what the sun rises to"
