NO 8 .DAWN OF ISLAM (1)

The prophet Muhammad had been spreading the religion of Islam quietly for three years when Allah commanded him to declare it to the people publicly. Allah also instructed him to start with his own household-those within his own family .

Muhammad understood his orders and went into retirement in his house for a few days. He thought very hard about what he had to do , trying to draw up a plan for the best way to aproach his people and call upon them to accept the religion of Islam

The news reached some of his aunts or relatives. They become worried that he might not be well. They decided to go and pay him a visit. When they got to his house they asked him about his health and told him how worried they had been about him.

Muhammad answered,”There is nothing the matter with me. Allah has ordered me to introduce Islam to my family and household. So ,I have to sit down and think about the best way to do this. I had to collect any thoughts and ideas before I could speak to any of you.
