Insulting the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him): A Quranic Study

Abstract

To proceed: I was impressed by the patience of the Prophet, the mercy sent to him, in the face of the harm inflicted upon him by his enemies. It stirred my soul and prompted my pen to trace the images of his harm at the hands of his enemies, as recorded in the Holy Qur'an. In them, the strength of the Prophet of God in confronting his enemies, no matter how great the harm, was evident, and the weakness of his enemies and their defeat before the might of truth was apparent. The importance of the topic stems from our need in this difficult circumstance to present the role model to be emulated and the example to be set, because it is the best means of performance, especially as we are subjected to aggression from our enemies. I will adopt the objective approach in presenting the topic, and this approach dictates that my research plan be divided into five sections and a conclusion, in addition to this introduction.
