YOUMUN – NABI MESSAGE by CIOG PRESIDENT, Al-Hajj Shahabudeen Ahmad

In the name of Allah (swt), The Merciful, The Compassionate
O Allah bless our beloved Prophet Muhammad (saw), the light of lights, the secret of secrets,
the antidote for depression and the key to the door of ease.
Assalaamu-Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi WaBarakatuh.
May the peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah (swt) be with you all.
My dear brothers and sisters in Islam and humanity, on this joyful occasion of observing the
birth and life of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (saw), I extend to you on behalf of the Central
Islamic Organisation of Guyana greetings on this auspicious occasion of Youmun-Nabi. I pray
Allah (swt) will increase us in love for the final Messenger to Humanity, Prophet Muhammad
(saws). May Allah (swt) bless us and accept all our devotion and service. Ameen.
More than fourteen hundred years ago, Allah (swt) bestowed his greatest mercy upon humanity by sending the Prophet Muhammad (saw) to teach the message of the Qur’an and guide humanity with his exemplary conduct. The Prophet (saw) was destined to be the best human ever to live on
Earth— the most virtuous, the most patient, the most loving, the most courteous, the most merciful among men, the best to his wives, his friends, his family, the most honest, the most trustworthy, and so much more that even his enemies testified to it. The Prophet’s (saw) character was of such high moral excellence that Allah (swt) confirmed his greatness.
And you are of the highest standard of character (Quran 68:4)
