CONCLUDING REMARKS
To
conclude, please listen
(and read!) carefully
the gist of my
speech tonight. Love
for Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
fundamentally demands his true following.
True following which is full of
blessings and luminosity that is no
doubt desirable in life's
routine matters, but
what it essentially demands
from us is that our
entire life should be directed towards the
same objective as
that of the
Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
And that cause
was the struggle
to make Allah's Chosen
Faith (i.e. Islam) prevail
over every other system:
the actual establishment and
implementation of a truly just order
enshrined in Islam. It was exactly
for this mission that
the Prophet toiled
so arduously for 23
long years and
for which his blessed Companions (RAA) devoted their
entire lives, suffered
hardships, cruel opposition,
and torture and for which
they even laid down their
lives.
That we follow in
the footsteps of
Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and
his blessed Companions
(RAA) and
that our
life interests and pursuits
be shaped by
the Seerah of the Messenger (SAW) and his Companions (RAA)
is what love for the Messenger (SAW) truly demands.
With
the
help of a brief outline
of the Seerah of Prophet
Muhammad ($AW) the real meaning and demands of love for the
Messenger Muhammad (SAW)
have been explained to
you. We need
to think and
contemplate further on this
subject. I am not
saying that you
should agree with everything that I have said
on this topic but do consider
carefully and with an objective
frame of mind my point
of view that has come before you.
‘Praise be to Allah,
Lord of the Worlds'.
