93:4 “Surely, the future is better for you than the past” means to say that as time passes, the Prophets mission would go on thriving and that more people would enter into the fold of Islam. In the beginning, the Prophet had only his wife Khadîja(rz) and his friend Abû Bakr(rz) on his side, and his early days at Makkah were full of hardships and difficulties. Better days followed his migration to Madînah, and finally he entered Makkah with ten thousand followers. More and more people are sending blessings on the Holy Prophet (pbuh) with the words: Allâhumma salle ‘alâ Muhammad.
