THE EMBASSY IS IN THE EARLY ISLAMIC ERA AND THE RIGHTLY GUIDED CALIPHATE

Abstract

The article aims to identify the most important characteristics of
ambassadors in the era of the advent of Islam and their role as well
as the embassy objectives in Islam. The historical narrative approach
was used to achieve the research goals. The findings indicate that
since the Prophet Mohammed's time (may Allah bless him) Muslims
used to choose their ambassadors among those who have the best
personality، most intelligence، and eloquence. In addition، the
ambassadors’ role was to speak، negotiate and sign agreements and
treaties on behalf of the president. Moreover، the study concluded that
the Islamic state was not isolated and calls for coexistence with others
through Islamic principles.
