The Quran and the Hadith used as primary sources reveal the significance of Muhammad’s revelations, teachings, and traditions. The Quran serves as the central religious text of Islam, providing the foundational principles of faith, law, and ethics that guided early Muslims in their personal and communal lives. It includes instructions on worship, morality, and social justice that helped unify the diverse tribes of Arabia under a shared belief system.
The Hadith, which comprises records of Muhammad's sayings and actions, further elaborates on the Quranic teachings and provides practical examples of how to implement them. Both texts together not only shaped the religious identity of early Muslims but also established the framework for governance, legal matters, and community relations. This foundational role of Muhammad's revelations and practices facilitated the rapid rise and spread of Islam through Arabia and beyond, as they inspired early followers to spread the faith and establish the Islamic Empire.
