Salam Maulidur Rasul~

Yeay, tomorrows a holiday! :D

Happy Maulidur Rasul everyone. Tomorrows gonna be The Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) birthday. 12 RabiulAwal. Every year Muslims celebrate the birthday of Muhammad (pbuh) to remember the day he was sent by Allah s.w.t to guide the ummah.The celebration will involve Selawat Parades, Talks,Forums, Marhaban and Feasting, from village level until national level.

The Selawat recited during the Parade

By remembering the day, Muslims will learn to love prophet Muhammad more and appreciate his lifetime struggle to rise Islam, and also apply his virtues in everyday life . Eventhough the celebration is considered a custom, Muslims also take it as a form of ibadah and the practice will continue each year, insya Allah.

Rabiul Awal is one of the months in the Islamic calendar where it marks the beginning of spring. The name was created by the early people of Arab when during the month their plants will start to produce flowers and fruits. Since the arrival of Islam, prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has decided to keep the name until today.

Many major events were recorded happening during this month, relating to the rise and fall of the Islamic empire. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was born, chosen to be a Rasul, and died during this month.

Wish I could see him and wish him Happy Birthday. Heheh. Salam Maulidur Rasul =)
