A PROPHETIC
AMATEUR OF MYDI-HISTORY
SURVEYING THE WORLD
IN THE OPENING OF THE SEVENTH CENTURY
MIGHT HAVE CONCLUDED VERY REASONABLY
THAT IT WAS ONLY A QUESTION OF A FEW CENTURIES
BEFORE THE WHOLE OF EUROPE AND ASIA
FELL UNDER MONGOLIAN
DOMINATION?
There were
no signs of order
or union in Western Europe,
and the Byzantine and Persian Empires were manifestly bent upon
a mutual destruction!
India also was divided
and wasted.
On the other hand,
China was a steadily expanding empire
which probably at that time exceeded all Europe
in population?
And the Turkish peoples
who were growing to power in Central Asia
were disposed to work in accord
with China ...
AND SUCH A PROPHESY
would not have been an altogether
vain one ...
A time was to come
in the thirteenth century
when a Mongolian overlord would rule from the Danube {Donau}
to the Pacific,
and Turkish dynasties were destined to reign over the entire Byzantine
and Persian empires, over Egypt and
most of India ...
Where our would-be prophet
would have been most likely to err
would have been in underestimating the recuperative power of the Latin end of Europe,
and in ignoring the latent forces
of the Arabian desert?!
ARABIA
would have seemed
what it had been for time immemorial,
the refuge of small and bickering
nomadic tribes
...
No Semitic people
had founded an empire now for more than
a thousand years
.............
THEN
SUDDENLY
the Bedouin flared out for a brief century of splendour?
THEY SPREAD THEIR RULE
and language from Spain/Portugal/France/Austria to the boundaries of China and gave the world a new culture?!
THEY CREATED a religion that is still to this very day ONE of the MOST vital
in this world!?
The man,
MUHAMMED,
who fired this Arabian flame,
appears first in history as the young husband of the widow of a rich merchant of the town of
MECCA
...
UNTIL
he was forty
he did very little to distinguish himself in the world!?
He
SEEMS
to have taken considerable
interest in religious
discussion
...
Mecca was a very pagan city at
THAT TIME,
worshipping in particular a black stone, the KA'ABA, of great repute
throughout all Arabia
and a centre of pilgrimages;
BUT
there were great numbers of Jews in that country -
indeed all the southern portion of Arabia professed the Jewish faith -
and there were Christian churches
in Syria
...
About forty
Muhammed began to develop
prophetic characteristics like those of the Hebrew prophets
twelve hundred years
before him
...
HE
talked first
with his wife of the
ONE TRUE G*D,
and of the rewards and punishments of virtue
and wickedness
...
There can be no doubt
that his thoughts were very strongly influenced
by Jewish and
Christian ideas?
He
gathered about him
a small circle
of believers
and presently began to preach in the town
against the prevalent
idolatry
...
THIS
made him
extremely unpopular with
his fellow townsmen
because the pilgrimages to the Ka'aba
were the chief source of such prosperity
as Mecca enjoyed!
He became bolder
and more definite in his teaching,
declaring himself to be the last chosen prophet of God
entrusted with a mission to
perfect religion
...
Avraham
{IBRAHIM}, he declared,
and Jesus Christ were
his forerunners!
HE
had been chosen to
COMPLETE and PERFECT
the revelation of
G*D's will!
HE
produced verses
which he said
had been communicated to him
by an angel, and he had a strange vision
in which he was taken up thru the
Heavens to
G*D
and instructed in
HIS MISSION
...
Time Out Now
for tea, aha-capsule &
breakfast ...
See you later
