Muhammad is the Founder of League of Nations | Dutch Scholar Christiaan Hurgronje

Christiaan Hurgronje (1857–1936) was a Dutch scholar of oriental cultures and languages. He was fluent in Arabic language and was one of the first Western scholar of oriental cultures to go on for a pilgrimage to the Holy city of Mecca in 1885. Professor Hurgronje writes:

“The league of nations founded by the Prophet of Islam put the principles of international unity and human brotherhood on such universal foundations as to show candle to other nations”

Christiaan Hurgronje continues further;

“The fact is that no nation of the world can show a parallel to what Islam has done towards the realization of the idea of the League of Nations.

The world has not hesitated to raise to divinity of individuals whose lives and missions have been lost in legend.

Historically speaking, none of these legends achieved even a fraction of what Muhammad accomplished. And all his striving was for the sole purpose of uniting mankind for the worship of One God on the codes of moral excellence.

Muhammad (PBUH) or his followers never at any time claimed that he was a son of God or the God incarnate or a man with divinity – but he always was and is even today considered as only a Messenger chosen by God.”1
