The birth of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), celebrated on the 12th of Rabi’ al-Awwal in the Islamic calendar, is one of the most significant moments for Muslims across the globe. It is not merely a commemoration of his arrival into this world, but also a reflection on his timeless message of peace, mercy, and justice for all humanity.
In the United Arab Emirates, this sacred occasion takes on a unique meaning. The UAE has long stood as a beacon of religious inclusivity and tolerance, a nation where people of diverse faiths live and thrive together in harmony. This spirit of coexistence echoes the very values the Prophet himself embodied—values of compassion, respect, and unity. By officially recognizing and honoring Islamic holidays while also embracing other cultures and traditions, the UAE demonstrates a model of inclusivity that the wider world can learn from.
As Muslims gather in mosques, homes, and communities to honor the Prophet’s life and teachings, they are reminded of his enduring guidance: to care for the less fortunate, to uphold justice, and to live with humility and kindness. His life continues to inspire billions and offers lessons that remain relevant in today’s complex and divided world.
On this blessed occasion, the Daily Times extends its warmest wishes to the people of the UAE and to Muslims everywhere. May this holiday bring peace, joy, and spiritual renewal to all who celebrate it. We congratulate the global Muslim community on the life and legacy of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)—a legacy that transcends borders, languages, and cultures.
From all of us at the Daily Times, Eid Milad-un-Nabi Mubarak to our readers in the UAE and across the world. May the Prophet’s example continue to guide humanity toward greater understanding, compassion, and unity.
