Muhammad and his message

  • He had two sons who died in childhood
  • He recieved Allahs words on mount Hira aged 40
  • Last prophet to be sent by God
  • He was a propeht for 23 years

Tawhid is there word for God but it actually means that he is the ultimate one and no one is on his level and that no one understands what he looks like. So for example if you drew a picture of God you are wrong as you don't know what he looks like, sounds like, thinks like etc. Also no one makes statues of Mohammad as then you are putting Mohammad on the same level as God which is impossible. Shirk is where you put someone on the same level as God. For example all Muslims think that Christians are commiting shirk as they treat Jesus like a…
