The Prophet of Mercy Website

As to Persian society, to the east of the Arab Peninsula, suffice it to say that the principles of Mazdocism were prevalent and advocated profligacy and illicit marriage between close relatives, making it lawful for a brother to marry his sister. Further east, in India, we find that the woman was burned alive, after the death of her husband, as there was no meaning for her survival after him.

The audience who were following these lectures kept arriving in the hall. Dr. Adam arrived before some of them. An observer of these lectures will notice that the Fourth Lecture is different from the previous one. Some of the audience were quite alert. They entered the hall and kept consulting their notes. There were also side discussions, most of which were not heard.Dr.

You must all have heard of great leaders and chiefs, such as Alexander the Macedonian, Napoleon and Hitler.

This is Dr. Adam’s Fifth Lecture, which we are following and recording. She will continue, as she intimated, her talks on the aspects of the mercy of the Prophet of Mercy, pbuh, towards his companions.“Dear audience, I welcome you all and thank you for coming.” Dr.

Then, the Qur’an went one step further, which many scholars consider to be the first step in the process of prohibition.Scholar Daraz says, “The first step along this road was taken in a word that was revealed in Mecca, a word that had gently touched the hearts. Thus amongst the bounties God has created in nature, the Qur’an mentions the fruits of palm trees and vine and adds thereto: “And from the fruit of the date-palm and the vine, ye get out strong drink and a wholesome food, in this also is a sign for those who are wise.” (Al-NaHl, 67).

Dr. Adam began her sixth lecture by greeting the audience and thanking them for coming and said , “I am pleased to continue my exposition of the manifestations of the Prophet’s mercy towards his followers, as there are important aspects that I have not yet dealt with.

When the Prophet, pbuh, says, “It is only an unfortunate person who is deprived of mercy,”[10]  each one of his companions would make sure the Prophet’s statement of such horrible attribute did not apply to him. They were well aware of God’s account of the fire of Hell, “Only the unfortunate shall suffer its scorching pain” (Al-Lail: 15).

This is the seventh lecture of Dr. Adam and the audience is the same
audience. Comments on these lectures have multiplied in many fora,
newspapers and journals, the majority of which were positively
appreciative, though some were critical on the grounds that she
sometimes goes too far in adducing evidence and in analysis.

Dear audience, we are still on the subject of the Prophet’s mercy in all its aspects, but in another sphere, when his followers have multiplied, and his strength has grown and his victories have come in succession.

The audience are getting ready for the Eighth Lecture. I hear their talking about how quickly the lectures have gone by. Meanwhile Dr. Adam entered the room, welcomed the audience and greeted them.I believe it is time, in this eighth lecture, to consider a verse from the Holy Quran , namely, “We have not sent thee but as a mercy to all the worlds” (Al-Anbiyaa, 107).
