Every year, as the moon ushers in the month of Rabi’ al-Awwal, Muslims around the world are reminded of a moment that changed history forever — the blessed birth of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. This month isn’t just another page in the Islamic calendar; it is a time filled with light, love, and spiritual reflection.
Rabi’ al-Awwal is most known for the birth of our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Many scholars agree that this momentous event occurred on the 12th of the month. It wasn’t just a date in history — it was the beginning of a new era. The Prophet ﷺ came as a mercy to all creation (Qur’an 21:107). That mercy started unfolding the day he entered this world.

Although many Muslims mark this month with Mawlid gatherings, nasheeds, and talks, the heart of Rabi’ al-Awwal runs deeper. It invites us to reflect on:
His truthfulness and patience in daily life
His ability to forgive those who harmed him
His gentle approach to guiding people
This is the perfect month to revisit his Seerah (biography), teach our children about his qualities, and revive his Sunnah in our routines.
Scholars hold different views on celebrating the Mawlid. Some support it with joy and reflection, while others choose not to observe it formally. However, one thing unites most Muslims — the love for the Prophet ﷺ and the need to follow his teachings.
Let’s use Rabi’ al-Awwal not to argue, but to grow in love and respect for the one who taught us to pray, forgive, and draw closer to Allah.
You don’t need big events to show your love. Try these easy yet powerful actions:
Read one short Seerah story every night
Send daily salawat (blessings) upon the Prophet ﷺ
Teach your child a hadith or sunnah story
Practice one Sunnah habit — like smiling more or speaking kindly
