وَمَآ أَرْسَلْنَـكَ إِلاَّ رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَـلَمِينَ
الأنبياء 107
In the name of God the most gracious the most merciful
“And We have sent you not but as a mercy for the `Alamin“
–Al-anbeyaa 107
Assalam Alaikum Sisters and Brothers,
Reflecting on the beautiful meaning of this Ayah, we should realize the responsibility upon us as followers of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) for carrying forward the message of mercy that he shared, and emulating his character and manners amongst Muslims and non-Muslims. This includes making sure that we use Allah’s blessings on us for the betterment of the communities around us.
