CHALLENGES CONFRONTED BY CONTEMPORARY MUSLIM WORLD AND THEIR SOLUTION IN THE LIGHT OF SEERAH

In the modern times, the Islamic world is suffering from challenges rising internally and reaching from the external sources. The Seerah, being a complete code of conduct provides comprehensive way out to these challenges confronting individuals and whole Muslim Ummah. This research is conducted to provide solutions to all those challenges which the Muslim world is confronting these days solely in the light of the Seerah of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH. Every aspect of the life is covered by the Seerah and it is with this determination the solutions are offered from Seerah. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) himself took profound steps in order to deal with the internal and external challenges of the state of Madinah, and these steps are examples for the rest of the world. The steps he took include the Charter of Madinah, the peace treaty, letters to the kings, the conquest of Makkah and the farewell sermon. His teachings give insight regarding the challenges relating to an individual and a state. We get guidance regarding attitude, behavior, women rights, social, economic, political affairs of a state and it is extended to the defense system and foreign policy of the state. Hence, we can say that the prophetic insight, his foresight and understanding is exemplary not only for the Muslim world but also for the world of humanity. The system he provided can be implemented as a basic system at the state and international level.
