In the early morning of Friday,
the seventeenth of the month of Rabee-Al-Awal during the year of
the so-called: "Aam Al-Feel" equal to the year of 571 A.D. came
into life Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) Various books of history which
Muslims own narrate that his mother, Aaminah had caught sight of
a dazzling light which all of a sudden astounded her and that she
didn't feel what other women usually feel and suffer during birth
time when they lay their children.
Narrations which are conveyed to
us tell us with surprise about this exceptional birth: " A gleam
of light emitted from me and was so dazzling that I could see the
castles of Al- Sham and when he fell to the ground, he held a
handful of dust, then he raised his eyes up towards the
sky."
But as for Muhammad himself, he,
in turn, told his companions about this birth of his, after he
had become a commissioned prophet. Yes, I am the call of my
father, Abraham and the happy tidings of my brother, Jesus, the
Christ (P.B.U.T.) and when she bore me she caught sight of a so
dazzling sight emitting from her that the castles of Al-Sham came
brilliantly into sight.
