Hind, go home!

You coward! Are you the leader of Mecca?

Look at yourself!

You are broke, they swallowed you and sput you out

When my father and brother die, my husband ran away?

You go home! You!

We can not resist! Mecca is taken

No, no!

We are to camp here for the night

We can see Mecca even through the mountains!

So many fires, I can not count them

It is very beautiful

When we drove them out of Mecca, I did not know

that he carried Mecca with him

we can smell the bread they are baking

Yes

It means they don't intend to plonder,

though I do hope at least thats what it means

They don't want blood on our walls and doorsteps

I can bargain with that

Take me to him!

So you are giving us your city

you offer me no bread

I understand

You may decide to kill me

Say what you have come to say

I saw your fires, the men around them

and I know what power you put into them

We can no longer resist Muhammad

Now if you agree

you dare to come here and ask for conditions

Isn't it yet time enough for you to recognize who Muhammad is?

Muhammad, there is still doubt in my heart

If I were to cut off your head, it would remove all your doubts

Khalid,

there is no composion in religion

A man may take many years

or only need minutes

its god who decides the time!

So respect his doubts

You're a black slave, you have the best school

I am only what God has given me

Yes

The Gods that I worshipped,

have never been in use

It would have helped me

I require no composion.

There is one God,

and you are the messenger of god.

Now, let me go.

get inside

No doors may be broken down,

nothing plondered, nothing seized

no one abused, all behind closed doors are safe

All in hAbu Sufian's house are safe

All by the side of Kabbalah are safe

At least, he kept his word,

they haven't forced any door

He's stolen hearts, not walls.

Its a permanent victory

I dread going out

we must... we must in the end

were we so wrong?

The way we lived, yes. that was wrong

we were trapped in our own faults

our gods were less than us

Now there he is, making his entrance to the Kabbaah

In the name of god, most gracious, most merciful

God gave this house to Abraham to be a sacred place,

worship no other God but Him

and cleanse his house

so it was

Muhammad took no revenge and allowed all.

He declared Mecca a holy place

Noone may shed blood

or cut down a tree,

or kill a living thing in Mecca

Soon,

all Arabia was converted not only to the new worship

but to the new laws, manners,

attitudes contained in Islam

The Prophet had lived to see his work done,

and now he began to feel the nearness of death

One great act of his Prophet would remain

the setting of its seal

He called the people to him

and he spoke for the last time

His message was to surrender to god

and humanity to man

''Oh, mankind! Listen well!

I may not be with you much longer

the weak among you

feed them and watch what you eat

Dress them as you are dressed,

you will meet your god

and he will call you

to count your actions

Let those who are present warn those who are absent

You are all are descendant from Adam

and the best among you

is he who most regards god

Think deeply about what I say.

Let all your feuds be abolished

you must know that every Muslim

is the brother of every other Muslim

and all Muslims are brothers of one-another

Between Muslims, there are no races and no tribes

Not must you take anything from your brother

except what is given freely

Do not oppress and do not be oppressed

O my people!

I'm but a man,

It may be that the angel of death will visit me soon

and death will overtake me

But I have left you a book,

revealed by god,

The Qur'an, which is light and guidance

Now he repeated to the people

the final repetition of the Qur'an,

the sea of determination

not Muhammad's words, but god's word

''This day I have perfected your religion for you

and completed my favour to you

and I have chosen for you Islam as your religion''

ON June the 8th 632

in his 63rd year

Muhammad died

Many of his followers

could not believe the fact

How can such a man die?

But Abu Bakr, the Prophet's friend

stood up in the mosque:

"If anyone worships Muhammad,

Let him know that Muhammad is dead

but who worships god

Let him know that god is alive and can not die''

They buried Muhammad beside his mosque in Medina

But the religion he preached

found its place in the heart of man

It endured. It multiplied.

Still to Mecca, they come, the mankind

The people of Islam dressed in their pilgrim white

all equal before god,

all united in this place of prayer

Each individual soul joined in a community of worship

... "ONE GOD"
