In praise of Prophet Muhammad, Chinese Hongwu Emperor wrote 100 word eulogy

[Leader]

In the 1300s, the Chinese Hongwu Emperor wrote the "Hundred-word Eulogy", which praised the characteristics of the Prophet Muhammad (S). Copies of it (like this one) were distributed to mosques throughout China. Translation: Since the creation of the universe God had already appointed his great faith-preaching man, From the West he was born, And received the holy scripture And book made of 30 parts (Juz) To guide all creations, Master of all rulers, Leader of the holy ones, With support from the Heavens, To protect his nation, With five daily prayers, Silently hoping for peace, His heart directed towards Allah, Giving power to the poor, Saving them from calamity, Seeing through the Unseen, Pulling the souls and the spirits away from all wrongdoings, Mercy to the world, Transversing to the ancient, Majestic path vanquished away all evil, His religion Pure and True, Muhammad, The Noble High One.

This is true,
“乾坤初始，天籍注名。传教大圣，降生西域，授受天经，三十部册，普化众生，亿兆君师，万圣领袖。协助天运，保庇国民，五时祈佑，默祝太平，存心真主，嘉志穷民，拯救患难，洞彻幽冥，超拔灵魂，脱离罪孽。仁覆天下，道冠古今，降邪归一，教名清真。穆罕默德，至贵圣人”
Ming dynasty Hongwu Emperor wrote in 1388 to Jingjue Mosque in Nanjing, Jingjue Mosque was built by the Emperor in 1388 at the ask of Hui muslim Zhenghe,

For the non-Chinese members here, the Hongwu Emperor was the founder of the Ming Dynasty, widely considered to be one of the greatest eras in all of Chinese history. And thus the Hongwu Emperor is one of the most important people in Chinese history.

Awesome.... A lot of people misunderstand stand just how much regard many leaders of years gone by have given Prophet Mohammed and Islam.

Few people actually know that one of Americas founding fathers owned a personal copy of the quran and in the US Supreeme Court; they recognize and honor the Prophet Mohammed in the list of the the "greatest" law givers of the world.

In the north wall, of the supreme court is a frieze "sculpture" of the greatest law givers of the world, and among this is the "Prophet Mohammed" holding the Quran:

*Please excuse the image as this was well intentioned by the American sculptor to honor him.

Interesting stuff!! It is well known (at least for those History fanatics) that there was a clear link of trading between the Arabs and China....Silk route of the East gets its name from there!
