*❖ Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) ❖*

✺ You Should know this man!

✺ Who is Muhammad (peace be up on him)?

❥❥ "Indeed in the Messenger of Allah you have an excellent example to follow for whoever hopes in Allah and the Last Day and remembers Allah much." (Qur'an 33: 21)

❥❥ Muslims beleive that Muhammad (peace be up on him) is the final Prophet sent to call the people to the obedience and worship of God alone ("Allah" in Arabic). Some of these Prophets include Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, David, Solomon and Jesus (peace be up on them all).

❥❥ Just as Moses (peace be up on him) was sent with the Torah (the original uncorrupted revelation sent to Moses) and Jesus (peace be up on him) with the Gospel (the original, uncorrupted revelation – not the present-day versions), Muslims believe that Muhammad (peace be up on him) was sent with the Qur'an to demonstrate how its teachings should be applied.

❥❥The Prophet's (peace be up on him) wife,  'A'isha, was once asked to describe the Prophet (peace be up on him), and she replied that he was 'the Qur'an walking', meaning he meticulously implemented the noble teachings of the Qur'an into his daily life.

✺ Mission of Mercy

❥❥ "And We (God) have not sent you (Muhammad) except as a mercy for mankind." (Qur'an 21: 107)

❥❥ As well as calling people to pray, fast and give charity, the Prophet (peace be upon him) taught that one's faith in God should also affect one's treatment of others. He said: "The best of you are they who have the best character."

❥❥ Many sayings of the Prophet (peace be upon him) emphasise the relationship between belief and action, for example: "Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day sould not hurt his neighbour, and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, should serve his guest generously, and whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, should speak what is good or keep quiet."

❥❥ The final Messenger (Peace be upon him) taught humans to show mercy and to respect each other: "He who dies not show mercy to others, will not be shown mercy."

❥❥ In another narration, some people requested the Prophet (peace be upon him) to invoke God to punish the disbelievers but he replied: "I have not been sent down as one to curse but as a mercy."

✺ Forgiveness

❥❥ "Let them forgive and overlook: do you not wish that Allah should forgive you? For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (Qur'an 24: 22)

❥❥ The Prophet (peace be upon him) was the most forgiving of all people and the kindest. If someone abused him, he would forgive him, and the harsher a person was, the more patient he would become. He was extremely lenient and forgiving, especially when he had the upper hand and the power to relaliate.

❥❥ Muhammad (peace be upon him) was all for forgiveness and no amount of crime or aggression against him was too great to be forgiven by him. He was the best example of forgiveness and kindness, as mentioned in the following verse of the Qur'an: "Keep to forgiveness (O Muhammad), and enjoin kindness, and turn away from the ignorant." (Qur'an 7: 199)

✺ Equality

❥❥ "Indeed the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you." (Qur'an 49: 13)

❥❥ In the following sayings of the Prophet (peace be upon him), he taught that all humans are equal in the sight of God: "All humanity is from Adam and Adam is from clay. There is no superiority for an Arab over a non-Arab, nor for a black over a white; except through piety."

❥❥ "God does not judge you according to your appearance and your wealth, but He looks at your hearts and looks into your deeds."

❥❥ It is related that once a companion of the Prophet (peace be upon him) called another companion in an offensive way. "Son of a black woman!" The Prophet (peace be upon him), became angry and replied, "Do you condemn him because of the blackness of his mother? You still have within you traces of ignorance from the pre-Islamic period."

✺ Tolerance

❥❥ "Good deeds and evil deeds are not equal. Repel evil with what is best, then he with whom you had enmity shall become as a loyal friend." (Qur'an 41: 34)

❥❥ "You should not do evil to those who do evil to you, but you should deal with them with forgiveness and kindness." This is how the final Messenger of God (peace be upon him) reacted to personal attacks and abuse.

❥❥ Islamic sources include a number of instances where the Prophet (peace be upon him) had the opportunity to take revenge upon those who wronged him, but refrained from doing so.

❥❥ He taught man to exercise patience in the face of adversity. "The strong is not the one who overcomes people by his strength, but the strong is the one who controls himself while in anger."

❥❥ Practising patience and tolerance does not mean that a Muslim should be a passivist and not defend himself in case of attack. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) stated that, "Do not wish to meet the enemy, but when you meet (face) the enemy, be patient (i.e stand firm when facing enemy)."

✺ Gentleness

❥❥ "By the grace of Allah, you are gentle towards the people; if you had been harsh and hard-hearted they would have dispersed from around you." (Qur'an 3: 159)

❥❥ A companion who served Muhammad (peace be upon him) for ten years said that Muhammad (peace be upon him) was always gentle in his dealings with him. "When I did something, he never questioned my manner of doing it; and when I did not do something, he never questioned my failure to do it. He was the friendliest of all men."

❥❥ On one occasion, the wife of the Prophet (peace be upon him) reacted angrily after being insulted by a person. The Prophet (peace be upon him) advised her: "Be gentle and calm, O 'Aisha, as Allah likes gentleness in all affairs."

❥❥ He also said: "Show gentleness! For if gentleness is found in something, it beautifies it, and when it is taken out from anything, it makes it deficient."

✺ Humbleness

❥❥ "And the servants of The Most Gracious (God) are those who walk on the earth in humbleness and when the ignorant address them, they say: 'Peace'." (Qur'an 25: 63)

❥❥ The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to prevent people from standing up for him out of respect. He used to sit wherever there was a place available in an assembly and never sought a prominent or elevated place. He never wore anything to distinguish himself from his companions or appear in higher rank than them. He used to mix with the poor and the needy; he used to sit with the elderly and support the widows. People who did not know him could not tell him apart from the rest of the crowd.

❥❥ Addressing his companions, he used: "Allah has revealed to me, that you must be humble. No one should boast over one another, and no one should oppress another."

❥❥ Such was his humbleness that he was fearful of being worshipped, a privilege only befitting God:

❥❥ "Do not exceed bounds in praising me as the Christians do in praising Jesus, Son of Mary. I am only the Lord's servant; then call me the servant of Allah and His Messenger."

✺ The Ideal Husband

❥❥ "And live with them (your spouses) in kindness." (Qur'an 4: 19)

❥❥ The Prophet's beloved wife, Aa'isha, said of her noble husband: "He always helped with the housework and would at times mend his clothes, repair his shoes and sweep the floor. He would milk, protect and feed his animals and do household chores."

❥❥ Not only was he a devoted husband, he also encouraged his companions to follow his example: "The most perfect of the believers in faith are the best of them in morals. And the best among them are those who are best to their wives."

✺ The Ideal Example

❥❥ "Indeed you (O Muhammad) are on an exalted standard of character." (Qur'an 68: 4)

❥❥ What has preceded is only a glimpse of how Muhammad (peace be upon him) lived his life. The examples of kindness and mercy mentioned may come as a surprise to some people given the portrayal of Islam in the media and its constant misreperesentation.

❥❥ It is important when trying to understand Islam that one goes directly to its sources: The Qur'an and the sayings and actions of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and that anyone does not judge Islam based on the errant actions of a few muslim.

Rasoolullah's ﷺ Shoes and Leather Socks:

Rasoolullah (ﷺ) wore shoes like sandals or slippers. Rasoolullah (ﷺ) also wore black leather socks and during Wadhu passed his moist hanks over them (made Masah). His shoes had two straps between the toes (Uswah: Mirqaat). There was a strap at the back as well. The Shoes of Rasoolullah (ﷺ) were one span and two fingers long and 7 fingers wide; there was a space of two fingers between the two straps at the toe end (Uswah) Rasoolullah (ﷺ)used to wear shoes made of leather that was smooth after the removal of the animal hair, and after wadhu He would place his feet into them because they were pure and made in such a way that his toes would thouch the ground. (Uswah) Rasoolullah (ﷺ) also wore shoes made of smooth leather. (Mishkaat) Rasoolullah (ﷺ) would would grip his shoes with his left thumb and index finger. (Shamaail Tirmidhi) Hazrat Anas (Radiallahhu’ anhu) narrates that from the sunnah is that one should remove his shoes and place them to the left side when sitting. (Mishkaat) Sourc...

The Prayer That Shook My Soul: Finding Gratitude in the Ruins:

 - I went to a masjid today that wasn't marked by towering minarets or grand domes. It was a humble prayer space tucked away inside the quiet confines of an old-age home campus. Places like these carry a specific kind of atmosphere. The air feels heavier, often thick with unspoken memories, quiet resignation, and the lingering echo of lives that once roared with activity but have now slowed to a whisper. I went there simply to offer my obligatory prayers. I left carrying a lesson that will stay engraved on my heart forever. As I stood in the rows, preparing myself, I found myself next to an elderly man. He was frail, his posture bent by the weight of time. He was an "inmate" here—a clinical word that felt too harsh for the gentle, weathered face I glimpsed. Later, I would learn the fragments of his story. He was a survivor of the brutal COVID era, a period that had swept through his life like a wildfire, taking almost his entire family with it. He was left behind in the a...

Eid al-Adha Mubarak:

 - Eid al-Adha  teaches us lessons of devotion and sacrifice. The obedience to Allah, the sacrifice, and the selfless loyalty of  Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham), peace be upon him, and Prophet Ismail (Ishmael), peace be upon him,  were so beloved by Allah, the Lord of all creation, that He decreed them to be observed by believers until the Day of Judgment. On this blessed and joyous occasion of Eid al-Adha, with reliance on the Almighty Allah and adherence to the teachings of His Prophets, and with prayers for the establishment of unity and solidarity worldwide,  this humble servant extends Eid al-Adha greetings to you and your family.

Discipline is not oppression, it is love in action:

 - *The Perils of Pampering: Raising Disciplined, God-Conscious Children*   In a world that glorifies instant gratification, indulgence, and materialism, we risk raising a generation that lacks resilience, respect, and responsibility. The saying, *"A pampered child becomes a spoiled adult,"* holds profound truth. If we fail to discipline our children today, we may find ourselves helplessly watching them struggle tomorrow or worse, witnessing them turn into entitled, inconsiderate adults.   *Discipline is not oppression, it is love in action*. It is the framework that shapes a child’s character, teaching them that life does not always bend to their will. If we refuse to instill these values at home, the world will teach them often in ways we would never approve of.   Islam places immense emphasis on disciplined upbringing. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:   > *"Command your children to pray at the age of seven, and discipline them for it at t...

The Azan, or Islamic call to prayer- Details:

Here are the words to the Azan: # Azan 1. *Allahu Akbar* (4 times): Allah is the greatest. 2. *Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah* (2 times): I bear witness that there is no deity except Allah. 3. *Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah* (2 times): I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. 4. *Hayya 'ala al-salah* (2 times): Come to prayer. 5. *Hayya 'ala al-falah* (2 times): Come to success. 6. *Qad qamat al-salah* (2 times): Prayer has begun. 7. *Allahu Akbar* (1 time): Allah is the greatest. # Du'a after Azan After the Azan, it is recommended to recite the following Du'a: "Alahumma rabba hadhihi ad-da'wat al-tammah, wa al-salat al-qaimah, ati Muhammadan al-wasilata wa al-fadhilata, wa ab'athu maqamam mahmudan aladhi wa'adtahu, innaka la tukhlif al-mi'ad." "O Allah, Lord of this perfect call and the established prayer, grant Muhammad the means and t...

Quran Juz 14 – Rubama - Summary:

Quran Juz 14 – Rubama Summary Join Us: https://chat.whatsapp.com/EwGX2NFn95O2Bo92HkyyiI • Surah Hijr: This Juz starts with Surah Hijr (the chapter’s first verse is in Juz 13 though), which talks about the people living in the Valley of Hijr (Hegra) i.e. the Tribe of Thamud.  • This brief chapter is uniquely themed at the foundational principles of Islam: Tawheed (Oneness of Allah), Risalah (messengership), and the Hereafter. • Allah tells Prophet Muhammed ﷺ that though the disbelievers do not wish to accept Islam, a time will come when they wish they should have accepted it. • As per a hadith, this will happen when they’ll see some Muslims too in Hell, undergoing a punishment. The disbelievers who knew them in life one earth will then taunt them and say that they were Muslims and how come they are in Hell. • However, at the completion of the Muslims’ punishment tenure, Allah will place them in the Heaven. Seeing it, the disbelievers will wish that they should have accepte...

The moment we realize that everything happens by the will of Allaah, all our worries begin to fade away:

 - (external source) 🌷 *Whatever Allaah does......it's for our best*🌷 When my daughter was 2 years old, she loved to play with the water in the toilet bowl.  Yes, that's right.... *the toilet bowl!!* Yuck!!  That's nasty...you would say!!  But to *her*, that was the *delight of the day!*  Splish...splash!  To her innocent mind, there was nothing like it!  And so when I would prevent her from playing with it, she would scream and cry and wouldn't want to stop.  She didn't understand how harmful that was for her.  In her little brain, I took away something that she really enjoyed.   And when I would take her to the doctor to have her immunization shots, she wouldn't understand that either.  She would *howl* at the top of her lungs at the first sight of the needle and would run the other way.  It would take two of us just to hold her down!  To her, it was nothing but *torture*!  Her innocent little mind...
