numerous wonderful incidents in the sky and on the earth, especially
inthe East, the cradle of civilization.
News of these events spread quickly and informed the people of an
imminent, very significant incident. Sincethis newborn child was
predestined to destroy the people's old superstitious beliefs and
customs and to lay new foundations for human progress and prosperity,
from the very beginning he sounded the reveille.
It is narrated that on the day which our Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was
born, the following incidents happened:
*. All the idols fell down.
*. The "Kasra Veranda" (a part of the palace of Iran's King) shook and
fourteen of its notches were damaged.
*. The "Saweh Lake" that people worshiped for years, dried up.
*. Water flowed in"Samaweh Desert", where no one had seenwater for many years.
*. The fire in the fire-temple of Persia was extinguished, which had
been flaming for several years.
*. On that night, a light came out from "Hijaz" and spread to the east.
So the humiliated worshippers of that false,destructive object of
worship, whose minds had been blocked by the obstacles of prejudice
and false imitation and who thus could not reflect upon nature took
notice of the truth and were attracted toward a totally different
direction.
Hazrat Muhammad (saw) in the Storm of events
Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was just six years old when his mother, Hazrat
Aminah bint Wahab, left Makkah for Medina to visit her relatives and
probably to pay a respectful visit to her husband's grave. He (saw)
accompanied his mother on that trip. But after visiting her
relativesand expressing love and loyalty to her husband at Hazrat
Abdullah ibn Abd Al-Muttalib's graveside, on her way back to Makkah,
Hazrat Aminah bint Wahab passed away at a place named Abwa. Thus,
Hazrat Muhammad (saw) had lost both his mother and father by that
tender age when every child needs a father's affections and a mother's
loving embrace.
