الإعلام في عھد النبي صلی اﷲ علیہ وسلم:الشعر والنثر والھجو والمدح

Media in the Era of the Prophet ﷺ: Poetry, Prose, Satire, and Praise

Abstract

The media is one of the basic pillars upon which the Prophet ﷺ relied to deliver his divine message to all the people of the earth, and thus its importance will remain throughout time until the Allah inherits the earth and all that is on it. God Almighty said: And indeed We have conveyed to them the word that perhaps they will remember. The Prophet ﷺ did not leave a means to convey the call to Islam, and he hastened with it. Therefore, we find that the Islamic nation today is in need of specialized Islamic media for all branches and sciences of Sharia, as it is the mother of supplication, communication, and information for the path to heaven. The Prophet ﷺ used private and personal contact with his family and close friends at the beginning of his preaching journey in order to ensure a strong and solid foundation. Al-Bukhari narrated on the authority of Ibn Abbas (R.A) that he said when it was revealed: And warn your closest relatives. The Prophet ﷺ ascended Safa, a famous mountain in Makkah, and started calling: O Banu Fihr! O son of Adi! To the bellies of Quraysh until they gathered together, so if the man was unable to get out, he sent a messenger to see what it was, so Abu Lahab and Quraysh came and said: What if I told you that horses in the valley wanted to attack you, would you believe me? They said: Yes, we have never tried to tell you anything but truthfulness. He said: I am a warner to you before a severe torment. Abu Lahab said: I will afflict you for the rest of the day. Is this what you brought us together? So it was revealed: Abu Lahab’s hand will perish, and his wealth and what he has earned will repent۔
