MERCY FOR ALL THE WORLDS
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَالَمِينَ
"AND WE SENT NOT YOU BUT MERCY FOR ALL THE WORLD."
🌿 Prophet Muhammad ﷺ – Mercy to the Worlds
In a world that often feels cold and divided, this verse shines like a lantern in a dark valley. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was not merely a man sent to guide a single people or place. He was sent as rahmah, as mercy — for all creation.
What does this mercy look like?
It looked like him forgiving the people of Ta’if, even when they bloodied his blessed feet.
It looked like him standing in the stillness of the night, praying for those who hadn't yet come — us.
It looked like tears in his eyes when he thought of his ummah — his people — and begged Allaah ﷻ for their forgiveness, safety, and salvation.
He was gentle with the children, patient with the elderly, tender with animals, and compassionate even to those who wronged him. His heart beat with a kindness that wasn’t confined by borders, bloodlines, or beliefs. It overflowed.
A Mercy That Lives On
Even centuries later, his mercy breathes through the actions of those who follow his path — in feeding the hungry, in caring for parents, in standing up for justice, and in forgiving when one could retaliate.
To walk in his footsteps is to sow mercy wherever we go. Not out of weakness, but strength. Not out of fear, but deep love.
Let us remember: being part of his ummah is not just an identity, it’s a responsibility — to be a source of mercy to the world, just as he was.
Ya Rasool ul laah ﷺ, we miss you. We yearn for your presence. But through your teachings, your love, and your mercy — we find you, again and again.
