Take a look at the world of 1400 years ago. In this case, leave aside the tall buildings, the piles of gold and silver and the glittering clothes. These can be seen even in old photo albums and lifeless museums, but rather see if humanity was awake then? From east to west, from north to south, look, see if the pulse of humanity is found anywhere and whether there was a response of life in it? In the sea of life, big fish used to eat small fish. In the forest of humanity, tigers, leopards, goats and deer were eaten indiscriminately, bad people prevailed over good people and low-nature people over respectable people, instinct prevailed over conscience and intelligence, the urge of the stomach prevailed over the demands of the soul.

But there was no protest, no anger against this anarchic situation in the entire world. The entire world had become an immovable rock. The king, the vizier, the rich and the poor, all were frozen. Everyone was being sold for money.
There was no one who would encourage the buyer of humanity. Who would call people and say, this environment is not enough for our salvation, this whole world and its life are small compared to our ambition. For we were created for an eternal life. How can we sell our souls for this temporary life and the small building of this limited world?
Nation and state, ahead of this community and tribe, beyond this increase neighborhood and family; people are divided into small groups.
People with great ambitions, who made great claims about their own abilities and dignity, had also become accustomed to a circular life. There was no resentment or resentment within anyone. No one could imagine humanity in a wider scope than this. All the joys and pleasures of life were caught in the web of deceit and fraud. Humanity had become a lifeless corpse.
In which there was no vitality of life, no feeling of the heart and no warmth of love. The roof of humanity was covered with weeds and grass. Which was full of bloodthirsty birds, poisonous thorny trees and terrible animals. Only humans were not seen. Those who were still human at that time, they went into the caves, hid themselves in the tops of mountains, inns and places of worship. They closed their eyes from the world of life and were absorbed in their own welfare.
And then, a warm flow of blood began in this cold body of humanity, a sensation appeared in the veins and the pulse of life appeared in the body. The bird that had been nibbling on this body thinking it was dead, and had been breeding on its roof, their house shook. Ancient Sirat researchers have described that the dome of the palace of the Persian Emperor Kisra collapsed and the fire in the fireplace went out. Modern historians write that the internal vibration of humanity caused vibrations in its exterior. A new life was created in the body of human civilization due to the arrival of Muhammad (peace be upon him). Who arrived in the heart of the civilized world, the holy Mecca.
The message he gave to the world brought all kinds of spaciousness and tranquility to human life. No one before or after him could shake the foundations and foundations of humanity as history has witnessed. His message was ‘La ilaha illallahu Muhammadur Rasulullah’ (There is no god worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the Messenger of Allah). No other word could have dealt such a great blow to the stagnant world of thought. As a result, it became angry and said, ‘Has he taken many gods as one god? This is indeed a most astonishing thing!’ (Al Quran; Surah: Sawad, verse: 5)
As a result, they began to think that this was a deep and well-planned conspiracy against their current way of life. Therefore, it must be resisted. It is said, “Their leaders turned away and said, ‘Go away and continue in the worship of your gods. Indeed, this is a deliberate matter.’” (Al Quran; Surah: Sawad, verse: 6)
This call for monism completely changes the picture of life and humanity, which affects the entire structure of thought and the entire pattern of life. The essence of this call was that the world is not a forest of weeds and weeds that grows by itself, but a garden carefully cultivated by the gardener. Man is the most precious flower in this garden. This flower is the capital of thousands of gardens. It is not a purposeless object that will lie in a dirty state without care. Only his Creator can give the value of man's humanity. There is limitless prayer, ambition, a brave heart, a restless heart within man; it is not possible to calm him down even with the whole world. This motionless world cannot walk with him. He needs eternal life and an infinite world. In front of which this earthly life is a drop and the world is like a child. Compared to the happiness and prosperity there, the happiness and prosperity here is nothing, and compared to the suffering there, the suffering here is nothing.
The intellect and conscience of the world had become so useless that it could not think of anything beyond matter, feelings, body and stomach. They had made some criteria based on these and measured everything in the light of them. Their criteria were resources, leadership, kingship, women and luxury. They wanted to measure Muhammad (peace be upon him) with this criterion. But they understood that he had no interest in these. What he wanted was something greater than these. That is the salvation of mankind in this world and the hereafter. He did not want to create an artificial paradise for himself on this earth. He wanted to make mankind who came from paradise enter the eternal paradise forever. He did not want any leadership and kingship, he wanted to free people from the slavery of the world and make them obedient to the king. Through this, he showed mankind the futility of the world and the search for eternal life.
