Divine mission of Muhammad and lessons from this world
Nahj al-Balāgha|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 161
[الرسول و أهله و أتباع دينه :] ابْتَعَثَهُ بِالنُّورِ الْمُضِىءِ، وَالْبُرهَانِ الْجَليِّ، وَالْمِنْهَاجِ الْبَادِي، وَالْكِتَابِ الْهَادِي. أُسْرَتُهُ خَيْرُ أُسْرَة، وَشَجَرَتُهُ خَيْرُ شَجَرَة، أَغصَانُهَا مُعْتَدِلَةٌ، وَثِمَارُهَا مُتَهَدِّلَةٌ. مَوْلِدُهُ بِمَكَّةَ، وَهِجْرَتُهُ بِطَيْبَةَ، عَلا بِهَا ذِكْرُهُ، وَامْتَدَّ مِنْهَا صَوْتُهُ.
Allāh deputed the Prophet with a sparkling light, a clear argument, an open path and a guiding book. His tribe is the best tribe and his lineal tree the best lineal tree whose branches are in good proportion and fruits hanging (in plenty). His birth-place was Mecca, and the place of his immigration Ṭaybah (Medina), from where his name rose high and his voice spread far and wide.
