By communicating the message of the Qur'an, the Prophet (saas) com-
pletely abolished the corrupt religions that the polytheists had inherited
from their ancestors, for which reason he met with much resistance. Yet, he
abided by Allah's command and took no notice of their oppression and ani-
mosity. Allah commands the Prophet (saas) thus in one verse:

Muslims in our own time too must explain the morality of the Qur'an
to people, ignoring any lack of approval and whatever anyone might say to
oppose them. They must not fear "the blame of any blamer," as the Prophet
(saas) did. That is a sign of morality and godliness that will be rewarded
with Paradise. The Prophet (saas) commanded Muslims to abide by that
Sunnah in these words, "Convey my teaching to the people even if it were a single
sentence." 35

In order that people should appreciate the power of Allah and adopt a
nobler morality out of awe of Him, the Prophet (saas) used to tell people of
the might of Allah and of the proofs of the splendour in His creation. He
thus became the means whereby they would love Allah and fear him. This
verse describes how the Prophet (saas) was commanded to speak:
