Meelad un-Nabee day the 12th
of Rabi ul Awwal [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] is amongst the sacred days for
Muslims. According to my understanding it is very crucial for nourishment and
treatment of human minds and hearts, hence it is necessary for Muslims to keep
in their sight the Aswa ur Rasool [Sallal Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam]. In the following three ways they can keep their emotions
intact.
1. The first way is of sending Durood and Salaam which is part and parcel of Muslim's life, they try to find every possible time to send Durood.
2. The second way deals with
Gatherings i.e. Muslims should gather in great number and one person out of
them [leader] who is fully versed regarding the life and works of Pride to the
worlds Holy Prophet [Sallal
Laahu Alaieh Wa Sallam] should mention them in detail so that the devotion to follow the way of
Prophet awakens in hearts of Muslims, for this purpose we have also
gathered today.
3. The third way is although
difficult but still it to be mentioned is very important. It is that Holy
Prophet [Sallal Laahu
Alaieh Wa Sallam] is remembered in such a way that our
hearts [and ways] become Mazhar [signs] of different aspects of Prophethood
the feeling which was there about 1300 years ago due to literal presence of
Prophet [Sallal Laahu
Alaieh Wa Sallam] the same feeling arises in our hearts
too.
