Description :
This book is a compilation of the letters, treatises, agreements and injunctions of The Most Praised of All Human Beings. He was the foremost law-giver of the World. He gave real dignity, equality and justice to mankind. He showed the right and straight path to his fellow beings.
He is most praised, as there has been none on whom praise was showered continuously day and night, is being showered and shall continue to be showered for ever. There have been hundreds of thousands of Prophets, heroes, leaders, conquerors, warriors and benefactors. Even the names of most of them are not known to us today, some live only in pages of history. Hundreds of books have been written about some of them. It is, however, an incontrovertible fact that the number of books written on the life of the Beloved Prophet Muhammad, Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, far exceed the number of books written on the life of any other men taken together.
Of all men, only one personality stands out, unique and alone on whom, not a second passes, in which thousands and thousands of people around the world, do not invoke the blessings of Allah. Whenever a Muslim hears the name of the Holy Prophet, Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, he recites the Salawat (Peace & Blessings of Allah) on him. When the words ''warafana laka zikrak'' (we have elevated your account) [al-Qur'an 94:4] was revealed to the Holy Prophet, Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, the Quraysh were subjecting the Muslims to the most abject humiliation, oppression, tyranny and cruelty, in the hope that the Muslims would succumb to their barbaric pressure; none except the Muslims could believe that the Holy Prophet, Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, would be the most highly praised man in the very near future.
In order that the message of Islam should reach all the countries, nations, tribes and peoples, the Holy Prophet, Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, went to different parts and places of Arabia and to the contignous regions to preach Islam. He addressed letters to the Kings, Rulers and Governors of the adjoining countries, Chieftains of a number of tribes and clans and leaders of different sections of the people inviting them to give up their evil ways and to embrace Islam. He also issued a number of injunctions and orders to various groups of society and entered into agreements and treatises with the Quraysh, Jews and different tribes. Although these letters treatises, injunctions and papers constitute as important a part of the life history and work of the Holy Prophet, Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, his teachings and other facts of his life; most of them, unfortunately, remained unnoticed and obscure for a long time. Efforts were made to trace them and to bring this invauable treasure to light. The western world is still not very familiar with these letters and papers.
