One in every four persons on this earth firmly believes that the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) is the last Messenger of God. He was a Muslim and there are more than 1.7 billion such Muslims today.

Not only individuals, entire countries take pride in declaring their allegiance to him. There are 56 such Muslim states today.
Indeed, within the last half century, Islam, the religion brought by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), has become the second largest religion in most European countries, as also in America and Canada.

Black and white, red and yellow, followers of the Prophet Muhammad

(PBUH) come from all human races. Whether in Asia or Europe, Africa or America. In every nook and cranny of this globe, you are sure to find a Muslim.

As now so always, down the centuries, across the planet, from end to end, millions and millions of men and women have lived all their lives, loving the Prophet and trying to follow in his footsteps, as no one else has been so loved and followed.

He brings light and peace to countless hearts and lives. They love him more dearly than their own selves. In him they find their greatest source of inspiration and guidance. He is the ultimate norm and the perfect example for them. Faith in him is their mainstay, and he is their chief source of support and comfort in all personal vicissitudes and tribulations.

In short, they believe that through him, a human like themselves, God has spoken to them, and guided him to live amongst them, setting a example and a model for all times to come. Even today he motivates and induces whole populations to yearn and strive to shape their private lives, politics and policies according to his teachings.

Who, then, is this man Muhammad (Peace be upon him)?
According to every standard by which human greatness can be measured he was matchless; no man ever greater!
