Succession of Mohammad Mustafa (saws) Source: (A Restatement of The History of Islam & Muslims by Sayed A.A Razwy, 1997-USA) Presented by: Syed Hadi Abedi The main and the most important reason for the existing differences in “believes and Practices” among the sects of Islam is about the succession of Apostle of God, Hazrat Mohammad Mustafa (saws). As a Statesman, Mohammad (saws) ranks among the greatest in the whole world. He was endowed with amazing perspicacity, vision and political genius. During the last ten years of his life, he was called upon to make the most momentous decisions in the history of Islam. Those decisions affected not only the Muslims or the Arabs but all mankind. He was also aware that his actions and decisions would affect the actions and decisions of every generation of Muslims to the end of time itself. Mohammad (saws), the Messenger of God, therefore, did not make any decision, no matter how trivial, on ad hoc basis; nor did he make decisions by a “trial and error” method. His decisions were all inspired. They were precedents for the Muslim Umma (nation or community) for all time. It was with his knowledge and understanding that he said or did anything and everything.
