The Anniversary of Mab'ath is a blessing for all human kind, not only for Muslims. The birthday of any prophet and the anniversary of a prophet's declaration, as a messenger of Allah, is a blessing for all of humanity.
Each of the divine prophets guided mankind on the path of human perfection, knowledge, morality and justice. The intellectual progress of mankind in the course of history has resulted from the teachings and instructions of the prophets.
All divine prophets tried to promote moral values and virtues, monotheism and servitude toward the Almighty, among humans. They tried to teach the human race how to live piously and tread on a path towards the peak of human perfection.
The Holy Prophet of Islam, Muhammad (peace be upon him and his infallible household), marks the seal of the divine prophets. His divine message, which is the ultimate message, will be the beacon of guidance for every human until the end of time.
We Muslims should uphold this divine blessing to the highest value. We should ponder over it and try to learn from the great event of Mab'ath. We should use our bright and glorious past as a beacon in order to illuminate the difficult path that extends before us and into the future.
