Abstract

slam is a comprehensive way of life that encompasses all aspects of human existence. It provides guidance in personal, social, legal, economic, political, educational, and other areas, enabling humans to attain hasanah (well-being) in this world and the hereafter. This holistic approach is beautifully captured in the concept of Rahmatan lil ‘Alamin (mercy to all creation), which serves as the foundational purpose of the Prophethood of Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), as reflected in the Qur'an: And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds. (Al-Anbiya 21:107) and further stated: “There has certainly come to you a Messenger from among yourselves. Grievous to him is what you suffer; [he is] concerned over you and to the believers is kind and merciful” (At-Tawbah: 128). In these two verses, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is described as Allah's Messenger who brings forth Islam—a complete way of life that serves as Rahmah or mercy to all of creation.
