THE CAUSES & EFFECTS
All the religions of the world are the messages of God to the human beings. All the prophets were assigned duty to deliver the message of God, to certain races or people of certain localities, i.e. countries, whereas Islam is/was for the total humanity. If we look for the causes that why the message of Islam is universal in nature and other religions are for the certain races or localities only, then the answer for it can be easily found in Quran. If the evolution process of human society from the first prophet, Adam to the last Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) is seen, then we can see that Quran has clarified that all the nations of the world who had been cursed and wrath of God had fallen on them were involved at least in two prominent vices. The first and far most vice was always of Shirak, whereas the second vice or evil has been changing for all the nations respectively. Somewhere we see with Shirak, the lesson of the sex discipline is taught, in other place the second evil is dishonesty in the business or building of grandeur buildings, whereas we see in the time of Prophet Moses, one race of human beings is enslaved by other race. Prophet Moses was given written Commandments to free the enslaved minds of Bani Israel from the worldly slavery, which had shrouded the minds of his race. In case of Prophet Christ, again to Bani Israel, whose birth was a miracle and whose all life was full of miracles. If the human beings could have brought to the straight path by open miracles, then life of Christ (Peace Be upon Him) was enough. Glancing to the scenario of the world at the time of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be upon Him), it can be seen that human society had reached to its zenith in its achievements in the field of politics & philosophy, with Roman and Persian Empires present in that time of the world. All the teachings, first delivered to different nations, separately, through different messengers of God according to the need of time and occasions, needed to be compiled and to be presented in a single message, according to the need of the time and occasions, to the whole mankind. And that is Islam, in which man is differentiated not by color or creed, but by the inner alienation of heart towards good and God. Though the Prophet of Islam (Peace Be upon Him) was Arab, yet we can see in his companions were Salman...
