The study finds that the narrative methods that the Prophet
used to deliver his message through his sayings made his ideas
clear and convincing. His narrative fidelity and truthfulness
raised no questioned from his followers or enemies. Even before
his Prophet hood, he was known by “the trusted and the honest
one”. The textual analysis of his speeches clarified his message
to be correctly understood. By talking of values that are
necessary to influence and inspire others, he provided a basis for
understanding how he was able to accomplish so much during
his brief Prophet-hood. Hundreds of books have been written
for that purpose in most languages of the world. The Prophet
taught exactly what the ancient Prophets had been teaching.
The high and noble aim of preaching such a universal religion is
to unite the nations of the world, establish peace, and eradicate
all causes of conflict. Today the world is out of joint. People all
over the world are searching for peace. The light of scientific
knowledge is spreading. But it has signally failed to dispel clouds
of hatred and hostility which spread darkness. Every now and
then, plans for world peace are put forward. But they prove all to
be superficial. The most effective panacea for world peace was
proclaimed by the Prophet Muhammad. He forcefully exhorted
the people that they should cherish reverence for the Prophets
of all nations, and live up to their revealed teachings. This style of
speech communication was tried with unparalleled success in
Arabia , where the warring tribes were cemented into
brotherhood. It can even be tried today. It will surely lay the
foundations of real and enduring union and peace. Belief in the
unity of God alone can bring about unity among nations. As this
teaching is universal in character, the Prophet who gave it to the
world, was rightly entitled "mercy for all people” (Bukhari). Just
as one universal religion is an effective means of uniting the
nations, it is also a guarantee for establishing international peace
and justice. The Prophet laid the foundation and the guidelines
for establishing peace and justice among the nations. If any
teachings can put an end to conflicts and strengthen the bonds
of human brotherhood in these times of crisis, it is the Prophet's
teachings.
