This chapter ends also with his words that liken his kindness towards people to the sun &#8220;<em>that sends its rays and warmth so that each person profits and has a share without feeling that others are sharing in or rivals for its warmth<\/em>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The book then draws the reader closer through the chapter \u201cWhy Muhammad?\u201d which declares that the goodness of his heart is the answer, and thus the universality of his message. It illustrates the essence of his message capable of solving all the miseries from which humanity is now suffering.<\/p>\n<p>After discussing his message to all, the next chapter \u201cMercy upon Mankind\u201d discusses his mercy to all that is manifested in the Hadith: \u201c<em>My similitude is that of a man who has kindled a fire&#8230;<\/em>\u201d which then displays examples of his mercy at peak level when shown to enemies, disbelievers, and hypocrites. The chapter then ends with a concise summary \u2013 to be detailed in the next chapters \u2013 of his striving to preach Islam in order for the reader to understand the greatness of this bestowed mercy to mankind and the high hurdles Prophet Muhammad had to surmount to convey Islam. These chapters are as follows:<\/p>\n<p>1-Arise and Warn<\/p>\n<p>2-Psychological Warfare (one of the most important parts of the book, analyzing 17 points of attack against the Prophet and his message and powerfully refuting them)<\/p>\n<p>3-Power of the Word \u0644\u0627 \u0625\u0644\u0647 \u0625\u0644\u0627 \u0644\u0644\u0647 (explaining the essence of <em>Tawhid<\/em>)<\/p>\n<p>4-I Am the Prophet, No Lying<\/p>\n<p>5-Bestowed Mercy<\/p>\n<p>6- Tolerance Together With Mercy<\/p>\n<p>7-On the Road of Hijrah<\/p>\n<p>The book then takes the reader to the ideal, beautiful New World that Prophet Muhammad built, exhibiting how he built it, what were its foundations, policies and administration, and the new things he achieved there and in the life of people (past and present). \u201cFree People\u201d, \u201cOn One Ship,\u201d and \u201cPlant it\u201d then present three teachings of the Prophet that were \u2013 and still are \u2013 capable of building a successful Muslim Ummah.<\/p>\n<p>Having established the new Muslim State the Prophet began the process of expanding Islam by inviting the kings. The approach and its important outcomes are covered in \u201cWriting to Kings\u201d, \u201cHindering the Path,\u201d and \u201cDivine Victory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The book is concluded with broad outlines that help the reader feel connected and directly involved \u2013 <em>this message is for you, will you embrace it<\/em>?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.new-muslims.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Muhammad-the-Prophet-of-Mercy.doc.pdf\">here <\/a>to download the book.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>______________________<\/p>\n<p><em>The book is made available by kind permission from the author.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[ica_orginalurl]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please allow me to briefly present to you my book \u201cMUHAMMAD, THE PROPHET OF MERCY\u201d (255 pages), a planned (five years of work) response to the offensive cartoons.
