According to his son, Muhammad, his ancestors originated in Andalusia and then moved to the city of Fes, staying in the Qarawiyyin at some point. ‘Imrun moved to Ceuta after having lived in Fes. Section 10 – The clemency, forbearance, and patience, forgiveness and pardoning status of the Prophet Chapter 1, explains Allah’s praise of the Messenger, it includes his pure lineage, and how much Allah cares for him. The Quran takes oaths of his names and titles; the conference of all Prophets pledging to obey him. Qadi Iyad explains an extraordinary claim made by the Quran, “ The messenger is nearer to the believers than themselves” (Al Ahzab: 23). Chapter 2 True Mawlid texts have a far different orientation. Abu al-Hasan al-Bakri’s Kitab al-Anwar (the Book of Lights), one of the earliest and most influential of such works, is a representative example. Almost nothing is known of the author himself, though he must have lived sometime before the end of the ninth century CE. Al-Bakri’s entertaining and dramatic work recounts gripping scenes and extensive dialogue even when such descriptions have no basis in earlier sources. The work’s main subjects are the preexistence of Muhammad’s divine light before creation and its passage through the generations, as well as his birth and infancy. Kitab al-Anwar concludes with Muhammad’s marriage to his wife Khadija; his revelation, prophetic mission, victories, and leadership are not mentioned at all. Kitab al-Anwar, like later works written in its model, “reflects the devotional reframing of the Prophet’s life,” as Marion Holmes Katz has written, “in which priority is accorded to his major life-cycle crises, rather than to his public career as the Messenger of God.”

Here one finds a vast desolate desert in which even the native bird becomes perplexed and unable to cross, and unknown places in which dreams, if they are not guided by the direction of knowledge and clarity of thought, go astray. It is a slippery slope where feet slip if they do not rely solely upon success and support from Allah. I have, however, great hopes of a reward for both of us in answering your questions by exposing the tremendous value and superb character together with the exceptional qualities of the Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) all of which none of creation ever possessed. I quote now the saying of Allah defining his duties, "So that those to whom the Book was given are certain and those who believe increase in belief." 74:31. Those to whom Allah gave the Book were obligated by Him to clarify it to the masses and not to conceal it. Ibn Ishaq, The Life of Muhammad: A Translation of Ishaq's Sirat Rasul Allah, Translated by A. Guillaume, Oxford University Press, Oxford, England, (Re-issued in Karachi, Pakistan, 1967, 13th impression, 1998) 1955, p. 450. The disbelievers of Quraysh said: ‘The son of Abu Kabshah has enchanted you with magic.’ Then one of them said: ‘If Muhammad has enchanted the Moon in this way, then surely his magic would not have bewitched the whole world. Ask those who arrive from other lands if they saw it.’ So people came and they questioned them, and they confirmed that they had seen it take place.”

A unique record of the salafi community of Madinah’s transactions with and behaviour towards the Messenger of Allah. Section 23 – The qualities of the Prophet as described by Abi Hala’s son to Al Hasan, the grandson of the Prophet.

Race and slavery in the Middle East: An historical enquiry. New York: Oxford University Press. Chapter 7. The Moon was split at the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ into two parts: one part was above the mountains, and the other part was below them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Witness!’” ( Bukhari 4864) ( Muslim 2800)Kitab al-Anwar was quite popular; reports abound of the book circulating widely in medieval book markets. However, al-Bakri also attracted the ire of scholarly authorities. Among others, the important historian and Quran commentator Ibn Kathir (c. 1300-1373) denounced him saying “the lies produced in al-Bakri’s sira are an offence and a grave sin; their fabricator has fallen into the category of those warned by the prophet: ‘He who reports lies about me deliberately shall be condemned to Hell.’” Today as well, Mawlid narratives, and the celebration of the Prophet’s birthday overall, are condemned as unlawful innovation in certain corners of the Islamic world.

So to repeat, the whole discussion has nothing to do with forcing people to become Muslim. Rather, it reflects the conservative and traditional laws of a conservative and traditional system (Islam) that do not condone blasphemy as a natural product of the freedom of speech.
