Prophet Muhammadﷺ: The Prophet of Peace
تلخیص
Peace is an absolute and universal rational category. It was sought by all religions. Islam was no exception to this rule. Dawn of Islam began in the tribal conditions of Arab. War was next to their social nature. Holy Quran uses the language of ‘four holy’ months which explains the necessity and significance of peace in socio cultural milieu of Islam. Very interestingly, peace brings about economic and social tranquility. Here peace may be an after effect of socio-economic tranquility. However, it is should be noted that peace is grounded in the establishment of justice. The word ‘peace’ if ever can comprehensively be applied on single personality in the world history, it is only and only true for Muhammad – the prophet of Islam – ﷺ. It was in his credit that he turned a warrior nation into a peace loving and peace seeking nation. He provided two theoretical models for the understating of peace. Firstly, peace is brought as a result of war. Here peace is for short term. Secondly, in order to continue, on the other hand, one has to establish socio economic justice in order to make society peaceful. The paper argues that prophet Muhammad’s ﷺ missionary efforts were peace headed and nothing else. He engaged in wars for a very brief period of time. Later, he successfully eradicated economic class consciousness, extremism, and instilled the values of patience and tolerance. This all paved the way to long lasting peace.
