12th Rabiul Awal - A day to be reminisced by all Muslims globally. The day that witnessed the arrival of the utmost supreme-man ever lived in this temporary world. A man who has brought us lights, which shown us the right path and destiny. This is the day where all Muslims should stands united irrespective of colors, race, language, culture, shapes, and ideologies. The birthday of a man loved most by Allah Rabbul Jalil, who had sacrificed his life, time, wealth, and efforts to bring people to the path of Allah Subhanahu wata’ala, the path which assures success in the life thereafter – the ultimate destination of human kinds. This is the man, when one follows his words, his philosophies, actions, and his lifestyle, will gain the genuine and true success in this world and thereafter. He is the last prophet of humankind, Prophet Muhammad saw (Peace be Upon Him).
