The Prophet and Non-Muslims

The Prophet and Non-Muslims by Abderrazzak Mahri

Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم has always behaved beyond reproach. He constantly personalized the Quranic ideal and implemented the Quranic rules and moral principles. He made an effort to get women and men from all walks of life to join.

The Prophet gave, in his relations with non-Muslims, the best example to follow in this matter. He did not miss an opportunity to invite them, to urge them to adhere to his message which came to close the cycle of prophecy. He was gentle and kind. He advocated peaceful coexistence with non-Muslims , recognized their rights, protected them, guaranteeing them freedom of conscience and worship, and financially helping the poorest among them to protect them from want.
