The first step is to first establish our hearts to believe that the Prophet Muhammad is truly a messenger of God Almighty. Was he a mercy for the whole universe that if we follow all the teachings, we will be safe in this world and the hereafter.
Let us not be like the unbelievers of Quraysh is blind heart, refusing Prophet Muhammad as a messenger of God Almighty, when the evidence Prophet Muhammad apostolic evident in front of him.
In the book Muhammad, the Prophet's Life Stories Based on the Classical Sources, Martin Lings recounts, in the early days of the Prophet Muhammad was sent, the people of Quraysh sent a messenger to Yathrib to see a Jewish rabbi. Envoys were ordered to inquire about Muhammad. Then a Jewish rabbi to give three questions to be given to the Prophet Muhammad. If you can explain these three questions, then the Prophet Muhammad really utusah Allah.
Got three questions, the Prophet Muhammad said to the leaders of Quraysh, "Tomorrow I will explain to you." Prophet forget say "Inshallah".
When the next day they came back, the Prophet Muhammed could not give an answer because he has not received a revelation to those questions. During the fifteen nights, none of revelation down. Prophet is very sad. Then Gabriel brought the revelation that a sad reminder of the Prophet because of what he said to his people and give answers to three questions.
The event gives great meaning for the Muslims and the Quraysh who were in doubt. Now they became convinced that the Prophet did not interfere about the power of revelation and no revelation set when it was. They thought, no sense for the Prophet to delay the revelation [if indeed he made], but many things at stake. However, for the pagan Quraysh ignorant, the incident still does not change their views one bit.
Once convinced of the apostolate of the Prophet Muhammad, we also must make sure that all the behavior and attitude of the Prophet Muhammad SAW was impossible we Model. Why? Yes, because the Prophet Muhammad was human like us, too. In the Koran, at least there are two verses which explain that the Prophet Muhammad was a human being.
In Fushshilat surah, Allah Almighty says what means: "Say: Verily I am a human like you, revealed to me that your Allah is One and Only God, then the mean-indeed on the way to Him and seek His forgiveness and accidents great for people who ascribe "[Surah Fushshilat [41]: 6].
While the al-Kahf verse Allah says: "Say, 'Verily I am only a mortal like you, who revealed to me that your Allah is One and Only God, then he who expects the encounter with his Lord, let him work righteousness and he should not associate in worship to the Lord is nothing ' "[Surah al-Kahf [18]: 110].
Basyar words in the second paragraph above is used to refer to people with outer nature. In the second verse, the Prophet Muhammad was ordered to say that he is also a human being just like other human beings around the world.
