3 - The Passing Away of Muhammad

The Spread of Islam (the unstoppable message of monotheism)

In 632 CE, Prophet Muhammad passed away in Madinah, having unified the Arabian Peninsula under the banner of Tawhid (the Oneness of God).

To many outside observers, his departure should have signaled the end of the Islamic movement; historically, the death of a charismatic leader often leads to the collapse of his cause. However, this sacred mission did not falter. Driven by a profound passion and an unshakable faith, the early Muslims did not believe they were fighting for a man, but for a Divine Message—a call to return all of humanity to the worship of the One Creator.
