The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

When we come to the story of the Prophet Muhammad -- who was three times exiled by the people -- nothing could take away his faith and conviction in the mission for which he was sent. He faced insolence and mockery from all sides; even his relatives would not join him. His uncle, who was the nearest relative, only stood for him because he was his nephew, but not because of his teachings. Under all these conditions he kept giving the message. And as Moses received the message on the Mount Sinai, the Prophet went on the Mount of Hira. In the same way as Buddha had the problem of finding the remedy for humanity, there was a problem for the Prophet: before him the ignorance of humanity was standing like a rocky mountain. It was to break that mountain, to remove that mountain, that the strength and power of a soldier were given to the Prophet.
