Sh Faid M Said; Secretary General of the Commission of Fatwa & Islamic Affairs and Imam of The London Central Mosque & Islamic Cultural Centre publishes a contributory article for the 2025 publication of the top 500 (for the 8th time in a row) most influential Muslim's in the world.

The title of the article: In a Time of Global Pain the World's Open Wounds - and the Remedy

"O people! Spread peace, share what you have and pray even as others sleep! Then will ye enter Paradise!" So said the Prophet Muhammad, - on him be peace and salutations, - upon his entry into the desert oasis of Yathrib, which would become known to the world as Madinah.

At once law and social guideline, this precious pearl was narrated as a Hadith by Abdullah ibn Salam, whose identity is as significant as his testimony, for ibn Salam was then no less than the leading Rabbi among Yathrib's large Jewish community and one of the most learned men in the Arabian peninsula. In the full text of the Hadith, Abdullah ibn Salam recounts:

"The people had gone out to greet God's Messenger upon his arrival [in Madinah]. The general cry in that hour was, 'The Messenger of Allah has arrived!', so I joined the crowd to get a good look at him. When I gazed upon his face, I knew that this was not the visage of the untruthful ones. In his very first general proclamation, he said, 'O people! Spread peace, share your sustenance, and pray even as others sleep! Then will ye enter Paradise!'" (Hadith narrated by Abdullah ibn Salam in Tirmidhi, 2485).



While Abdullah ibn Salam could discern truth in the Prophet's physiognomy alone, fourteen centuries on, the Prophet's words resonate louder than ever. They compel us to face up to Truth and to embrace it, to face down falsehood and to reject it. For, what we are confronted by today, is a world in the throes of agony, of pain on a globe-spanning scale.
