His Teachings
In spite of all the opposition, the Holy Prophet(sa) continued his campaign. Wherever he found a few men sitting together he would go and teach them that God was one, that there was no other God besides Him, neither on heaven nor on earth; that he had neither son nor daughter; He begat not nor was He begotten, that they should put their faith in Him and worship Him and pray to Him alone; that He was free from all grossness and, therefore, could not be perceived by our physical eyes; that He was the Master of all powers Who had created the universe and that the souls of the dead returned to Him and were given new life; men should love Him and strive to attain nearness to Him; that they should purify their hearts, tongues and their actions, that they should eschew falsehood, murder, disturbance, theft, robbery, false charge, fault-finding, abuse, transgression and envy, that they should not spend their time in pursuit of luxury and the satisfaction of their desires but should devote themselves to the service and welfare of mankind, and should promote love and peace in the world.[1]
