In Episode 5 of Life of the Final Messenger ﷺ, Mufti Menk explores the profound silence that preceded revelation — a silence not of absence, but of divine preparation.

As Arabia drifted further from the message of Ibrāhīm (AS), darkness spread across the land. Yet even in that darkness were seekers of truth — men like Zayd ibn ʿAmr and Waraqah ibn Nawfal.

This episode uncovers the stillness before Prophethood — and the quiet strength of Khadījah (RA), whose support would anchor the beginning of the mission.
