Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Lessons from the Holy Prophet of Islam (S) Be’that of the Holy Prophet (S): The only way to fulfill the wishes of humanity such as justice and peace Peace and tranquility is another essential need of humanity.

In order to achieve intellectual development, in order to move things forward, in order to achieve peace of mind, human beings need tranquility and a secure and peaceful atmosphere in their minds, in their family environments, in their societies and in international environments. Tranquility, security and peace are among the most essential needs of humanity. Islam is the harbinger of peace, security and well-being.

This is why we say that on the basis of Quranic teachings, Islam is a religion that is compatible with innate human characteristics. The path that Islam has opened up in front of humanity is the path of innate human characteristics, the path of fulfilling innate human needs. Allah the Exalted appointed the Holy Prophet (S) to fulfill this comprehensive goal and He promised salvation to mankind.

“Surely We have sent you with the truth as a bearer of good news and as a warner.” [^1] Primarily, this good news is the promise of a peaceful life, a life that is accompanied by justice, a life that is adjusted to the innate characteristics of mankind. Of course, it is also the promise of divine rewards, which is related to the eternal life of mankind. Therefore, Be’that of the Holy Prophet (S) was in fact the beginning of mercy: God bestowed His mercy on all human beings through Be’that.

This path was opened up in front of human beings. It introduced justice as well as security and well-being. “Indeed there has come to you light and a clear Book from Allah. With it Allah guides him who will follow His pleasure into the ways of safety and brings them out of utter darkness into light by His will and guides them to the right path.” [^2] With these commands and teachings, the Holy Prophet (S) showed the path to security and well-being.

This path to peace and security is related to all areas that are important to humanity – inner aspects of one’s being, aspects relating to society, aspects relating to family environments, aspects relating to business environments, aspects relating to social environments, aspects relating to international environments. This is what Islam is after. The target of Islam’s attacks is exactly the areas that are not in tune with the general outline of human life.
