Description: Prophet Muhammad is the pride of mankind. For more than fourteen centuries many thinkers, philosophers, scientists and scholars, each shining like a star in our intellectual world, have stood behind him in respect and admiration, and have been proud of to belong to his community. To understand and appreciate its greatness, it suffices to recall that, even after so many assaults on religion, one still hears the words "I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of God" resounding from the top of the minarets five times a day. We rejoice, along with the dead and other spirit beings, to hear his name proclaimed during the call to prayer. Despite concerted efforts to corrupt and mislead our youth, they continue to hasten to the Prophet despite not seeing his full reality. It is not time that has made us forget the truths about it. His recollection is so vivid in my memory that it is enough for me to pronounce his holy name for me to experience the feeling of being able to meet him at any moment. One day, while I was on a pilgrimage to his holy city, Medina, I had the impression that he would suddenly appear and welcome us. As time passes, some ideas become outdated, but his message remains as fresh as a rosebud in our hearts. So whenever we hear his name ringing from a minaret, we accept his invitation, immediately abandon our work and rush to the mosque.
