An Analytical study of sports development as viewed from Islamic perspective

Abstract

Physical well-being and good health are some of the emphatic teachings in the Prophetic guidance brought by the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). This is no surprise looking at the fact that the message of Islam is meant to be practiced and spread, as Islam is one of the most missionary religions. It is quite logical and understandable that it is only a sound and physically fit body that can implement the Divine all-encompassing guidance of Islam and perform the onerous task of spreading it to every nook and cranny of the globe.
