Kisah Hidup Nabi Muhammad S.A.W
Ketika penduduk Mekah berada dalam kegelapan dan kehilangan pedoman, lahirlah di tengah-tengah masyarakat tersebut seorang bayi bernama Muhammad, yang akan menjadi panutan dan meluruskan aqidah serta kehidupan mereka dari kesalahan menuju cara yang benar dan diberkati oleh Allah. Muhammad lahir dari seorang ibu bernama Aminah pada 12 Rabi’ul Awal di tahun gajah atau pada tanggal 20 April, 571 M. Ayahnya, Abdullah, telah meninggal saat Muhammad berusia 7 bulan di dalam kandungan ibunya.
Sudah menjadi kebiasaan orang-orang Arab dari kota Mekah dimana mereka mempercayakan anak-anak mereka dan disusui oleh wanita Badiyah sehingga bayi-bayi bisa menikmati udara segar dan bisa berbicara dengan lancar. Muhammad yang merupakan keturunan bangsawan Quraisy, ia disusui oleh Halimah As-Sa’diyah.
Setelah ia berusia lima tahun, Halimah dikawal Muhammad ke Mekah. Halimah kembali kepada ibunya, Siti Aminah. Setahun kemudian, Aminah meninggal. Setelah itu, Muhammad diasuh oleh kakeknya, Abdul Mutholib. Dua tahun berikutnya, kakek Muhammad juga meninggal. Setelah itu, ia diasuh oleh pamannya, Abu Tholib.
Sementara ia tumbuh menjadi dewasa, Nabi Muhammad SAW mulai hidupnya secara mandiri dan ia tidak tergantung pada pamannya lagi. Dia dikenal sebagai orang yang jujur dan baik di kalangan teman-temannya dan orang-orang yang lebih tua karena dia tidak pernah mengatakan kebohongan dan hal-hal buruk. Karena karakter dan perilaku yang baik, seorang janda kaya mempercayakan dagangannya kepada nabi Muhammad SAW untuk dijual di negeri Syams. Wanita itu adalah Khadijah.
Setelah kedatangannya dari Syams, ada lamaran pernikahan dari Khadijah untuk Nabi Muhammad SAW melalui paman Khadijah. Pernikahan diadakan setelah keduanya setuju. Nabi Muhammad SAW berusia 25 tahun ketika ia menikah, sementara Khadijah berusia 40 tahun.

Dia meminta mereka untuk hanya menyembah Allah. Dia melakukannya selama sekitar tiga tahun. Setelah itu, ia mulai dakwah secara terbuka di depan publik.
Perjuangannya dalam dakwah mendapat banyak hambatan dan penolakan. Namun, ia masih sabar, tetap bersemangat, dan tidak mudah menyerah. Dia selalu meminta perlindungan dari Allah SWT.
Pada tanggal 27 Rajab, tahun kesebelas setelah Muhammad SAW diangkat sebagai nabi, Isra ‘Mi’raj terjadi. Pada saat itu, Nabi Muhammad SAW menerima perintah untuk solat lima kali sehari dari Allah SWT.
Nabi Muhammad SAW meninggal karena demam pada 12 Rabi’ul awal 11 Hijriyah atau sama dengan 8 Juni 632 M. Dia berusia 63 tahun ketika ia meninggal. Selama 23 tahun ia menjadi nabi, ia berjuang keras dalam dakwah Islam.
