the prophet muhammad (saas) - Prophet Muhammad (SAW) for All

When Our Signs are recited to them—Clear Signs—you can detect denial in the faces of those who
disbelieve. They all but assault those who recite Our Signs to them! Say: "Shall I inform you of something
worse than that? The Fire which Allah has promised those who disbelieve. What an evil destination!"
(Surat al-Hajj: 72)
"[I have for you] only notification from Allah and His Messages. As for him who disobeys Allah and
His Messenger, he will have the Fire of Hell, remaining in it timelessly, for ever and ever." (Surat al-Jinn:
23)
The Prophet (saas) described the torments of Hell in detail for those who believed such things far
fetched, and, as revealed in the Qur'an, explained the lot of those in Hell and how people would beg to be
saved from its torments, extending every effort to cause them to avoid it.
He spoke in sure and certain terms to the disbelievers, saying he would never join
them
Although the disbelievers were far stronger and in greater numbers at that time, the Prophet (saas)
paid no heed to their disposition and threats, but with great determination preached the words of the Qur'an
and made it quite clear that he would never turn from the true path. Determination and patience are
defining characteristics of the faithful, and every Muslim must take the determination and strong will of the
Prophet (saas) as a model. Some verses on that subject are as follows:
Say: "I am forbidden to worship those you call upon besides Allah." Say: "I do not follow your whims
and desires. If I did I would go astray and not be among the guided." Say: "I stand on a Clear Sign from my
Lord and yet you have denied it. I do not have in my possession what you are in such haste to bring
about. Jurisdiction over it belongs to Allah alone. He tells the truth and He is the Best of Deciders."
(Surat al-An'am: 56-57)
Say: "Unbelievers! I do not worship what you worship and you do not worship what I worship. Nor
will I worship what you worship nor will you worship what I worship. You have your religion and I have
my religion." (Surat al-Kafirun: 1-6)
Some of the Prophet (saas)'s reminders
to the People of the Book
The Prophet (saas) warned the People of the Book in the best way, and communicated to them, not a
distorted, polytheistic form of religion, but rather Allah's final revelation. In the same way as with the
disbelievers, the Prophet (saas) did not put pressure on the People of the Book, but simply conferred to them
advice.
