For the Love of The Prophet (SAW), for whom the Universe was created

Today is the Blessed day of Friday, the day which is regarded as the most significant and beneficial day of the week. What better day can there be to discuss our religion than this day? Today, I'm going to be talking about one vital part of our religion and that is: Our beloved Prophet(SAW). 
Where do I start about our remarkable Prophet? Because truth is, words are not enough to describe the immensely beautiful person he was. Orphan hood is the culmination of extreme helplessness and his life on Earth began with it. He went from an orphan to a shepherd, to Allah's Chosen One, a persecuted man and then finally the peak of material power, a King. Did he live like a king? No, in-fact he could not be told apart from a poor man, such was his humility. He attained everything in life. If greatness lies in unifying the discordant elements of society by ties of brotherhood and charity, the Prophet has every title to this distinction. If it lies in displaying high morals, Muhammad(SAW)has been admitted by both friend and foe as Al-Amin. If a conqueror is a great man, here is a person who rose from an orphan to become the ruler of Arabia, the founder of a Great Empire and Religion that survive to this day. It was the same man, who had not studied philosophy in the schools of Athens, Persia or China. Yet, he could proclaim the highest truths of eternal value to mankind. Illettered, yet he could speak with with an eloquence and fervor which moved men to tears. Born an orphan, blessed with worldly goods he was loved by all. It is his name that even today exerts a magic charm over millions of souls, spread all over the world. 
However, the love of billions of people cannot compare to the love Allah has for the Prophet(SAW). Allah created the entire vast universe for this messenger, Allah forgave Adam(AS) for this messenger, Allah helped this Messenger through the fire of the world so that he would come out of it unscathed. Therefore, if Allah has loved the Prophet(SAW) to such an extent then as Muslims it is our duty to show the same love for the Prophet(SAW).
Yet another reason, Muslims love the Messenger so endlessly is that without love for the Prophet , religion is incomplete. The Prophet(SAW) said: 
"No one of you truly believes until I am dearer to him, than his father, his son, his own self and all the people". 

Lastly, I love the Prophet(SAW) because I know that despite the fact that I haven't seen him in flesh, I know 100% that the Messenger of Allah loves me. And not only me, but all of us! Before any of us were born, he prayed to Allah to forgive his Ummah for the sins the would commit in the future. It is because of the Prophet(SAW) that our unfortunate souls were blessed even before they were em-placed in our bodies, even had the ability to feel or infer. When we love the Prophet(SAW) we attain all the good in this temporary world and the Here After. I love the Prophet because I know that on the Day of Judgement he will be our only salvation, even when our own parents turn selfish. I love the Prophet(SAW) because it is through him that the blessing of faith came into the world and mankind was pulled out of the darkness and made aware of the highest wisdom that has been  revealed to our Earth, Islam.

The Best Place in the World

The sky was alternating from hues of glistening and sparkling black to azure blue as I awoke during the wee hours of the morning, observing the sights of the Prophet’s magnificent city unfold right before my eyes. Even during the break of dawn, there were throngs of people trekking in the streets, folks of all ages heading towards the mosque with the Green dome to pray the Morning prayer. On our route towards the green dome, there were street vendors selling traditional Roasted Chicken, Kofta Kebabs and every other Arabic street food you can think of. The aroma of the exotic spices and freshly roasted chicken was as crisp as newly picked vegetables and made the atmosphere as warm as newly baked bread, hot from the oven. The savory aroma of the Shawarmas was so intoxicating that it made my mouth water. From the It tar shops in the corner, the perfumed fragrance of cinnamon, along with botanic materials and a hint of dense date palm oil drifted through the air, leaving a pungent yet plea...

A sojourn from one mystic poet to another

" O ut beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there.  When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about". With the right hand raised towards the sky, in complete surrender to The Cosmic Ego. Left hand, in prostration towards the ground, the Earth of The Cosmic Ego. Revolving from left to right, around their hearts to enfold all of humanity with love. " Some call you love, I call you the King of Love, You are beyond imaginings, taking me places  I can't even dream of. O ruler of my heart, wherever you go... don't go without me." Rumi The art of the whirling dervish dates back to decades ago, to what is today's modern day Turkey. This art was developed by a man loved and admired by all those who encountered him. A man who, initially found the answers to the Earth's complex mysteries in books. Life for him was dotted with success, he was the most praised ...

Feeling like it's time to finally accomplish your dreams of being that top student in class you always wanted to be or be the favorite of the entire class or be the most popular kid in school*cringe*. You came to the right place. Why? well because I've seen every City School Campus on the surface of the Earth. *STARTS SINGING THE GREAT, THE HISTORICAL ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK OF THE CITY SCHOOL* " I am a citizen of the City Schoollllll my motto is I am to learn " *APPLAUSE* 1. Give a good first impression of yourself How do I say this...well let me give you an example. I switch schools a lot and I vividly remember when I had to come to this campus this year.....well I was not giving away the correct impression of myself. What I mean to say is that usually I'm a very loud and talkative person. However, when I came here everyone thought I was the shy, reserved girl who hates practically everyone deep down but does...
