"Oh Prophet, We have sent you as a witness, news bearer and a
warner and as someone who invites people to God by His permission and a shining
Lamp" (33:45-46).
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) who
was sent to mankind as a news bearer and a wamer for he spoke the truth and did
not invent something of his own. The purpose of this article is to confirm the
statements made by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) during his farewell address during
the last pilgrimage (10 AH).
After praising and thanking
God, the Messenger said, "Oh people, listen to my words carefully for I
know not whether I will meet you on such an occasion again."
TRUST ANDACCOUNTABILITY
Sermon: "Oh people,
just as you regard this month, this day, this city as sacred, so regard the
life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Remember that you will
indeed appear before God and answer for your actions."
Quran: "If anyone killed a person unless it is
for a murder or spreading mischief on earth it would be as it he killed the
whole mankind, and if anyone who saved a life, it would be as if he saved the
life of whole mankind" (5:32). "Then on that day not a soul will be
wronged in the least and you shall but be prepaid in the needs of your past
deeds" (36:54).
