The Ansar-Ud-Deen Society of Nigeria has urged Muslims to internalise the profound lessons of the life of Prophet Muhammad as they celebrate his birthday.
The society harped on the need for Muslims to emulate the impeccable character of the prophet,
his unwavering compassion, pursuit of justice and his profound humility, as indicated in his popular saying: “I have only been sent to perfect good character.”
President of the society, Prince Mosediq Kazeem (SAN), gave the advice in his Maulid Nabbiy message to the Muslim community on Friday.
He reminded the Muslims that Maulid is not merely a historical remembrance, but a renewal of their covenant with the teachings that brought mankind out from the darkness of ignorance into the illuminating light of divine guidance.
Kazem added, “Let us use this occasion to strengthen the bonds of Islamic brotherhood, promote unity, foster peace, and rededicate ourselves to contributing positively to the development of our communities and our nation, Nigeria.
“We pray that Allah fills our hearts with the love of the Prophet (SAW), grant us the ability to follow his Sunnah faithfully, and allow the blessings of this epoch-making event to bring peace, prosperity, and increased faith to the entire ummah.”
