 Fairness        of heart                                      he preached
1-Strong Faith and Dependence on God


   The Apostle believes in what has been revealed to him from his Lord as do the men
   of faith. Each one (of them) believes in Allah His angels His books and His Apostles
   "We make no distinction (they say) between one and another of His Apostles."
   And they say: "We hear and we obey; (We seek) Thy forgiveness Our Lord and to
   you is the end of all journeys. Baqarah,2:187




   Say: "I do no more than invoke my Lord and I join not with Him any (false
   god).“ Jinn, 72:20



But if they turn away Say : "Allah is sufficient for me: There is no god but He: On
Him is my trust – He is the Lord of the Throne (Of Glory) Supreme. Tauba,9:129
Strong Faith and Dependence on God
• In face of severe trials from the disbelievers, he always
  reminded companions that the end was for the
  believers,
• He believed that the Will of God will come to pass.
• During migration journey while hiding in a cave from
  the enemies, Abu Bakr looked at the feet of the pagans
• He said, ‘O Prophet of God! If anyone of them looks
  down at his feet he would see us!’
• The Messenger of God (SAW) said: ‘O Abu Bakr! What
  do you think of two with whom God, the Exalted, is
  their Third?" (Muslim #1854)
2.     Fearing God, being mindful not to
             trespass His limits


• O Prophet! Fear Allah and hearken not to the
  unbelievers and the hypocrites: verily Allah is full of
  knowledge and wisdom. But follow that which comes
  to you by inspiration from your Lord: for Allah is well
  acquainted with (all) that ye do. Ahzaab,33:1,2

• Prophet (SAW) said,“ Sometimes, when I return to my
  family, I would find a date fruit on the bed. I would pick
  it up to eat it; but I would fear that it was from the
  charity, and thus, throw it back ." (Bukhari #2300)
Fearing God, and Being Mindful of Him
• Aisha said: ‘If the Messenger of God (SAW) saw dark
  clouds in the sky; he would pace forwards and
  backwards and would exit and enter his house. As soon
  as it rained, the Prophet (pbuh) would relax. Aisha
  asked him about it, and he said: ‘I do not know, it may
  be as some people said:




• "Then, when they saw the (penalty in the shape of) a
  cloud traversing the sky, coming to meet their
  valleys, they said: ‘This cloud will give us rain! Nay, it is
  the (calamity) you were asking to be hastened! A wind
  wherein is a Grievous Penalty!24" (46:24)
3- Sound intellect and divine
               knowledge


Nor does he say (aught) of (his own) Desire.
It is no less than inspiration sent down to him:
He was taught by one mighty in Power (Najm,53:3,4,5)




Read! And thy Lord is Most Bountiful
He Who taught (the use of) the Pen 6206
Taught man that which he knew not (Alaq,96:3,4,5)
Sound Intellect & Divine knowledge
• He had meaningful and inclusive utterances and traditions,

• He had good manners, ethics and moral character,

• He had knowledge of the Torah and Gospel and other Divine
  Scriptures,

• He possessed knowledge of by-gone nations,

• He had ability to strike examples and implement policies
Sound Intellect & knowledge
• He was an example to which his people could relate to
  in all branches of knowledge; acts of
  worship, medicine, laws of inheritance, lineage, and
  other matters as well.

• He knew and learned all of this without reading or
  examining the Scriptures of those before us, nor did he
  sit with their scholars.

•    The Prophet had no formal schooling, and was
    without knowledge of the above before being
    commissioned as a Prophet, nor could he read or write
4. Sincerity
• The Prophet (SAW) was sincere and honest in
  all his matters, as God had ordered him.



• "Say, Indeed, my prayer, my rites of
  sacrifice, my living and my dying are for
  God, Lord of the worlds. No partner has He.
  And this I have been commanded and I am the
  first (among you) of the Muslims." [6:162-163]
Doing Things for the Sake of God
• He always did deeds through which he would seek the pleasure
  of God.



        Say: I ask of you no reward for this, except that whoso
         will,       may choose a way to His Lord. (25:57)

• "The Prophet (SAW) resembled a prophet who was harmed by
  his people. He wiped the blood from his face and said: ‘O God!
  Forgive my people, for they know not!" (Abdullah bin
  Masood,Bukhari #3290)

• Jundub b. Sufyaan said that the Messenger’s finger bled during
  one of the battles, and he said: "You are but a finger which has
  bled; which suffers in the path of God." (Bukhari #2648)
5- Love of Purification and
                    cleanliness


 “And Allah loves those who make themselves clean and pure.”
 (Surah Tawbah 9:108)
Keep your clothes clean." [74:4)
 And Allah only wishes to remove all blemishes from you Members of the
 (Prophet’s) Family and to make you pure and spotless. Ahzaab ,33:33
 There are many meanings of purity and cleanliness in Islam:
 1. Ritual purity- Ghusl or taking bath is compulsory after certain acts
    ,e.g., intimacy with spouse
 2. Washing of body and clothes to remove dirt
 3. Being in a state of Wudu or ablution
 4. Keeping heart and other body organs clean of sins
Cleanliness
• A Muslim is required to be pure morally and
  spiritually as well as physically.
• Prophet Muhammad (SAW) advised the Muslims to
  appear neat and tidy in private and in public. Once
  returning from an expedition he said:
• "You are soon going to meet your brothers, so tidy
  your saddles and clothes. Be distinguished in the
  eyes of the people." [Abu Dawud)
• "Don't ever come with your hair and beard
  disheveled like a devil." [Al-Tirmidhi]
6- Beauty



• The companions knew the Prophet (SAW) to be
  the most beautiful of people. One companion
  said:
• "The Prophet (SAW) was a person of average
  height. His shoulders were wide. His hair reached
  his earlobes. Once I saw him adorned in a red
  garment; I never saw anything more beautiful
  than him." (Bukhari #2358)
Teaching people about beauty
• Prophet (SAW) also carried the task of teaching
  people about beauty and reviving their sense and
  awareness of it.
• He exemplified beauty of handsome appearance.
  The Prophet (SAW) used to wear the nicest
  clothes available to him.
• He also liked perfume. `Aisha (RA) said, "I used to
  apply to the Prophet the best scent available"
  (Muslim).
• The Prophet would prohibit any person who had
  eaten onions or garlic from getting inside the
  mosque.
7- Excelling in Acts of Worship

• Strive together (as in a race) toward all that is
  good
  (Baqarah,2:148)
• A’ishah (R) said that the Prophet of God (SAW)
  used to pray during the night until his feet would
  swell.
• She asked, ‘Why do you do this, O Messenger of
  God, while God has forgiven your past and future
  sins?’ The Prophet (SAW) replied:
• "Shall I not be a grateful slave (of God)?" (Bukhari
  #4557)
8- Asceticism in Worldly Affairs


• Nor strain your eyes in longing for the things
  We have given for enjoyment to parties of
  them the splendor of the life of this world
  through which We test them: but the
  provision of thy Lord is better and more
  enduring. (Taha,20:131)
Asceticism (Zuhd) means self-denying and to live
a very simple life
Asceticism in Worldly Affairs
• There are many examples in the Prophet’s life
  which prove that he had no concern for the
  pleasures of this life. Abdullah b. Masood said:
• "The Messenger of God (SAW) went to sleep on a
  mat. He stood up and he had marks on his side
  due to the mat that he had slept on.
• We said: ‘O Messenger of God, shall we not make
  *a proper+ bedding for you?’
• He said: ‘What do I have to do with this world? I
  am only like a wayfarer upon a mount that
  stopped to take shade and rest under a tree, and
  then leaves it behind and continues on the
  journey." (Tirmidthi #2377)
9- Simplicity and Ease

• Allah intends every facility for you He does not
  want to put you to difficulties. (Baqarah,2:185)

• The Prophet (pbuh) always sought to make things
  easy for people. The Messenger of God (pbuh)
  said:
• "I start the prayer with the intention of
  lengthening it, but when I hear a child crying, I
  shorten the prayer, as I know its mother would
  suffer from his screams!" (Bukhari #677)
10.Enjoining Good and Forbidding Evil




"Those who follow the   apostle the unlettered prophet whom
they find mentioned in their own (Scriptures); in the law and
the Gospel; for he commands them what is just and forbids
them what is evil: he allows them as lawful what is good (and
pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); He
releases them from their heavy burdens and from the yokes
that are upon them. (Araaf,7:157)
Enjoining Good and Forbidding Evil
• If the Prophet (SAW) saw an act which opposed a tenet
  of the religion, he would reprimand it in a suitable
  manner.
• Abdullah b. Abbas said: The Messenger of God (SAW)
  saw a man wearing a gold ring, so he reached for
  it, *and+ removed it…. He then said:
• "Would one of you seek a burning charcoal and place it
  on his hand?!"
• The man was later told, after the Prophet(SAW) left:
  ‘Take your ring! Make good use of it *by selling it+.’ The
  man said: ‘No, by God! I will never take it after the
  Messenger of God (SAW) cast it away.’ (Muslim #2090)
11- Resolving disputes

        So fear Allah and keep straight the relations
            between yourselves: (Anfaal.8:1)
• Whenever a situation occurred which called for
  reconciliation, the Prophet (SAW) would hurry to
  resolve it.
• Once when he heard that the people of Qubaa
  disputed with each other about a matter, the Prophet
  (SAW) said:
• "Let us go to resolve the situation and make peace
  between them." (Bukhari #2547)
12- Living Quran
• The Prophet (SAW) was a living example for all
  humans to follow. His wife Aisha was asked
  about his manners, and she said,



• "His manners were the Qur’an."
13- Polite and courteous



Say to My servants that they should (only) say those things that are best: for
Satan doth sow dissensions among them: for Satan is to man an avowed
enemy. (Isra,17:53)




         you shall speak unto all people in a kindly way
         Baqarah,2:83
Polite and courteous
• The Prophet (SAW) showed good manners and was
  courteous to all, even to children.
• Once when the Prophet was in a gathering, a drink was
  brought to the Prophet (SAW) and he drank from it. On his
  right side there was a young boy and on his left side were
  elderly men. Feeling obliged by the respect of elders, and
  not wanting to hurt the feelings of the child, he asked the
  young boy:
• "Do you mind if I give the drink to them?’ The young boy
  said: ‘O Prophet of God! By God! I would not prefer
  anyone to drink from the place you drank. This is my fair
  share. The Messenger of God (SAW) handed the boy the
  drink." (Bukhari #2319)
Polite and courteous
• Anas says: "I served the holy Prophet(SAW) for
  ten years. He never said 'Uf (expressing
  dissatisfaction), nor did he ever ask me why I
  did this or did not do that(Muslim)
• Abdullah Ibn Amar says: "The Messenger of
  Allah (SAW) was neither ill-mannered nor
  rude. He used to say that the better people
  among you are those who are best in their
  moral character." (Bukhari)
14- Speech, brief and beneficial

• And be moderate in thy pace and lower thy
  voice; (Luqman,31:19)
• The Messenger of God (SAW) would make
  himself busy with the remembrance of God;
• He would not talk in vain or loud.
• He would lengthen his prayers and shorten
  the speech, and he would not hesitate to help
  and take care of the needs of a needy, poor or
  widow. (Ibn Hib’ban #6423)
Speech
• He (SAW) used to keep silent most of the time
  and speak only when it was necessary.
• His laughing was like smiling.
• When he spoke, his addressees would listen
  attentively.
• `A’ishah said, “If a man intended to count the
  Prophet’s words during a speech, he could
  easily do so.”
15- Forbearance
And Allah loves those who are firm an steadfast.
(Ale Imran, 3:146)
• Once some companions came to the Prophet
  (SAW) complaining about a tribe, namely the
  Daws, who refused to accept Islam, asking him
  to curse them.
• The Prophet (SAW) raised his hands in prayer
  and instead said:
• "O Allah guide the tribe of Daws and bring
  them to Islam!"
Patience and Forbearance
• Anas bin Malik said:
• "Once, I was walking with the Messenger of God (SAW)
  while he was wearing a Yemeni cloak with a collar with
  rough edges.
• A Bedouin grabbed him strongly. I looked at the side of
  his neck and saw that the edge of the cloak left a mark
  on his neck.
• The Bedouin said, ‘O Muhammad! Give me *some+ of
  the wealth of God that you have.’
• The Messenger of God (SAW) turned to the
  Bedouin, laughed and ordered that he be given [some
  money]." (Bukhari #2980)
16.Altruism
(Self sacrifice and serving others)

give them preference over themselves even though
poverty was their (own lot) (Hashar,59:9)



And they feed for the love of Allah the indigent the
orphan and the captive. (Dahr,76:8)
16. Altruism
• Sahl b. Sa’d said: The Prophet (SAW) had more care for those around him
  than for his own self.
• "A woman gave the Messenger of God (SAW) a Burdah (gown).
• The Prophet (SAW) asked his Companions: ‘Do you know what a Burdah
  is?’ They replied, ‘Yes, O Prophet of God! It is a piece of woven cloth
  [similar to a shawl]. The woman said: ‘O Prophet of God! I have woven
  this shawl with my own hands, for you to wear.’ The Messenger of God
  (SAW) took it while he direly needed it.
• After a while, the Messenger of God (SAW) came out of his home
  wearing it, and a Companion said to the Messenger of God (SAW): ‘O
  Prophet of God! Grant me this shawl to wear!’ The Messenger of God
  (SAW) said: ‘Yes.’ He then sat for awhile, and headed back home, folded
  it and gave it to the person who asked for it.
• The Companions scolded him saying: ‘It was not appropriate for you to
  ask for his shawl; especially since you know he does not turn anyone
  down or send them away empty-handed! The man said: ‘By God! I only
  asked him to give it to me because I want to be shrouded in this shawl
  when I die.’ Sahl, the narrator of the Hadeeth said: ‘The shawl was used
  as a shroud for that man when he died." (Bukhari #1987)
17-Mercy and compassion




Now has come unto you an apostle from amongst yourselves: it grieves him
that ye should perish: ardently anxious is he over you: to the believers is he
most kind and merciful. Tauba,9:128
Kindness and Compassion
• The Prophet was the kindest of people, and
  this was also apparent in his treatment of
  infants.
• "The Messenger of God (SAW) performed
  Salah (prayer) while he was carrying an infant
  girl named Umaamah, daughter of Abul-Aas.
  When he bowed, he put her on the
  ground, and when he stood up, he would
  carry her again." (Bukhari #5650)
Mercy and Compassion
• Once when the Prophet (SAW) went to visit his
  grandchild he shed some tears.
• "The Messenger of God (SAW) sat with the child while
  he was on his deathbed. The child’s eyes froze in their
  places like stones.
• Upon seeing that, the Messenger of God (SAW) wept.
  Sa’d said to him, ‘What is this ‘O Prophet of God?’
• He said: ‘This is a mercy that God, the Exalted, places
  in the hearts of His slaves. Truly, God is merciful to
  those who are merciful towards others.’ " (Bukhari
  #6942)
18- Sharing work
• The Prophet (SAW) was not a king who commanded his
  followers to carry out his orders. Rather he always
  carried out his own affairs and helped others in
  collective duties.
• A’ishah was once asked about how the Prophet (SAW)
  behaved with his family. She said:
• "He helped and assisted his family members with their
  chores; but when the call to prayer was heard, he
  would [stop everything and] leave to attend the
  prayers."
• Al-Baraa bin ‘Azib said:
• "I saw the Messenger of God (SAW) on the Day of the
  Trench carrying dirt [that was dug from the trench]
  until his chest was covered with dirt." (Bukhari #2780)
19- Truthfulness



• When the Believers saw the Confederate
  forces they said: "This is what Allah and His
  Apostle had promised us and Allah and his
  Apostle told us what was true." And it only
  added to their faith and their zeal in
  obedience. Ahzab, 33:22
Truthfulness
• A’ishah (RA) said:
• "The trait and characteristic which the Prophet (SAW) hated
  most was lying. A man would tell a lie in the presence of the
  Prophet (pbuh) and he would hold it against him, until he
  knew that he repented." (Tirmidthi #1973)
• Even his enemies attested to his truthfulness. Abu Jahl once
  said: ‘O Muhammad! I do not say that you are a liar! I only
  deny what you brought and what you call people to.’
  God, the Exalted, says:



• "We know indeed that what they say certainly grieves
  you, but surely they do not call you a liar; but the unjust deny
  the verses of God." [6:33]
20- Seeking the Moderate Way



Thus have We made of you an Ummah justly balanced that
ye might be witnesses over the nations and the Apostle a
witness over yourselves. 2:143
The Prophet said: “Be moderate. Practice religion
commensurate with your physical strength. Offer prayers in
the morning and evening and in some parts of the evening
and in some parts of the night. Follow the middle course;
you will reach the goal” (Bukhari).
Seeking the Moderate Way
• Ibn Masood relates that the Prophet (SAW)
  said,” Those who go to extremes in practicing
  their religion are doomed.” He repeated this
  three time. (Muslim)
• Abu Huraira relates that the Prophet (SAW)
  said,” Religion is easy. No one indulges in
  extremism except the one who is taken over
  by it. Hence, be moderate and practice it in
  proportion to your capacity….” (Bukhari)
21- Smiling face




• Abdullah bin al-Harith said:
• "I have never seen a man who smiled as much
  as the Messenger of God (SAW)."
   (Tirmidthi #2641)
22-Honesty and Trustworthiness

 Allah commands you to render back your trusts to
      those to whom they are due; (Nisa,4:58)
• The Prophet (SAW) was well-known for his
  honesty.
• The pagans of Makkah -who were openly hostile
  towards him- would leave their valuables with
  him.
• When he migrated to Medina, he ordered his
  cousin, Ali bin Abi Talib to postpone his migration
  for three days to return to people their valuables
23-Bravery and Courage


Those to whom the people said, 'Indeed, the people
have gathered against you, so fear them.' So they
increased in faith, and they said, 'Sufficient for us is
Allah , and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs. ( Ale
Imran, 3:173)

Ali (R) reported, 'You should have seen me on the day of
Badr! We sought refuge with the messenger of Allah
(SAW). He was the closest among us to the enemy. On
that day, the messenger of Allah (SAW) was the
strongest one among us.’ (Ahmed #654)
Bravery and courage
• The Messenger of God (SAW) was the most
  courageous.
• One night, the people of Medina were frightened
  and headed towards the sounds they heard during
  the night.
• The Messenger of God (SAW) met them while
  coming back from the place of the sound, after he
  made sure that there was no trouble. He was riding
  a horse that belonged to Abu Talhah without any
  saddle, and he had his sword with him. He was
  assuring the people, saying: ‘Do not be frightened!
  Do not be frightened!" (Bukhari #2751)
Wrestling with Rukaana
• Rukaanah was a skillful wrestler.
• Prophet (SAW) said to him, “O’ Rukaanah, will you not
  fear Allah and accept what i am calling you to?"
• Rukaanah replied, "if you can prove that you are a true
  messenger, I will follow you." The prophet (SAW) said:
  “What would you say if I wrestle you down? Will that
  make you believe that I am a true prophet?" He
  replied, "yes.“
• Then the prophet (SAW) said: “Come on, i will wrestle
  you.” The prophet (SAW) wrestled him and defeated
  him three times.
• Rukaana then became a Muslim. (Seerah by Ibn Kathir)
24-Bashfulness and Modesty
• Abu Ayoub al-Ansari said that the Messenger of Allah
  (SAW) said:
• "Four (traits) are from the practice of the Messengers;
  modesty, using perfume and siwak (tooth stick) and
  marriage." (Tirmidthi)
• A’ishah (RA) said:
   "A woman asked the Prophet (pbuh) about the bath
which is taken at the end of the menstrual period. The
Prophet (SAW) said: 'Purify yourself with a piece of cloth
scented with musk.' The Prophet (pbuh) felt shy and
turned his face. A’ishah said: 'I pulled her to myself and
told her what the Prophet (SAW) meant.' " (Bukhari
#313)
Haya or modesty
• Faith consists of more than sixty parts; and
  bashfulness is a part of faith.”
  [Bukhari,Muslim)
• Each religion has a distinctive moral and the
  Distinctive moral of islam is bashfulness.” [ibn
  maajah
• “Allah is more deserving that you should be
  bashful before him.’” [Abu Dawood)
25-Humbleness

  And lower thy wing to the Believers who follow you.
  (Shua’ra, 26:215)

• Anas bin Malik said:"Once, while we were sitting with the
  Messenger of God (SAW) in the Masjid, a man on his
  camel approached. After he tied it with a rope, he asked:
  ‘Who amongst you is Muhammad?’
• The Messenger of God (SAW) was sitting on the ground
  while he was leaning, with his Companions.
• We directed the Bedouin, saying: ‘This white man leaning
  on the ground.’ The Prophet (SAW) did not differ nor
  distinguish himself from his Companions."
Humbleness
• He commanded people not to stand up for each
  other as the non-Arabs used to do to glorify
  each other.
• Furthermore, he (SAW) said, “I am a servant (of
  Allah); I eat as a servant eats and sit as a servant
  sits.”
• Prophet (SAW) said, “Do not excessively praise
  me as Christians excessively praised the son of
  Mary.”
• Once a man entered on the Messenger of Allah
  (SAW) and stood in awe. Thereupon, the latter
  said, “Take it easy. I am not a king. I am a son of
  a woman from the Quraish ...”
26-Justice and Fairness


Allah commands justice the doing of good and liberality to kith and kin and He
forbids all shameful deeds and injustice and rebellion: He instructs you that ye
may receive admonition. (Nahal,16:90)




“O ye who believe! Be steadfast witnesses for Allah in equity, and let not hatred
of any people seduce you that ye deal not justly. Deal justly, that is nearer to
your duty. Observe your duty to Allah. Lo! Allah is informed of what ye do.”
(Surah Maeda 5:8)
Justice and Fairness
• The people of Quraish were extremely concerned
  about a Makhzoomi woman who committed a
  theft. They asked Usama bin Zaid to ask the
  Prophet for clemency. Prophet gave this speech:
• ‘People before you were destroyed because when
  the noble among them stole, they would let him
  go; and if the poor and weak stole they would
  punish him. By God! If Fatimah, the daughter of
  Muhammad stole, I would cut her hand off.’
  (Bukhari #3288)
27- Contentment in simple lifestyle
•

• What is the life of this world but amusement
  and play? But verily the Home in the Hereafter
  that is life indeed if they but knew. (29:64)

• Amr Ibn Al-Hareth (R) said that when the
  Prophet (SAW) died, he left neither money
  nor anything else except his white riding
  mule, his arms, and a piece of land which he
  left to charity
Contentment in simple lifestyle
• Umar bin Khattab (R) said, ‘I entered the
  Messenger’s house and I found him sitting on a
  mat. He had a leather pillow stuffed with fibers. He
  had a pot of water by his feet, and there was some
  clothes hung on the wall. His side had marks due to
  the mat that he lay on.
• Umar wept when he saw this, and the Messenger
  (SAW) asked him: ‘Why do you weep?’
• Umar said: ‘O Prophet of God! Khosrau and Caesar
  enjoy the best of this world, and you are suffering
  in poverty?!’ He said: ‘Aren’t you pleased that they
  enjoy this world, and we will enjoy the Hereafter?’
  (Bukhari #4629)
28- Forgiveness


Hold to forgiveness; command what is right;
but turn away from the ignorant. (Araaf,7:199)


But indeed if any show patience and forgive that would
truly be an exercise of courageous will and resolution in
the conduct of affairs. Shura,42:43
• DAY OF AQABAH
• Aisha (R) reported, ‘I asked the Messenger of God (SAW): "Did you
  face a day harder and more intense than the Battle of Uhud?‛

• He replied: ‘I suffered a lot from your people! The worst I suffered
  was on the Day of al-’Aqabah when I spoke to Ali b. Abd Yaleel b. Abd
  Kilaal (in order to support me) but he disappointed me and left me.

• I left the area while I was quite worried, and walked - when I reached
  an area called Qarn ath-Tha’alib, I raised my head to the sky and
  noticed a cloud that shaded me.
• Gabriel (A) called me and said: ‘O Muhammad! God, the Exalted, has
  heard what your people have said to you - and has sent the Angel in
  charge of the mountains, so you can command him to do what you
  please.’
• The Prophet (SAW) said: ‘The Angel in charge of the mountains called
  me saying: ‘May God praise you and keep safe from all evil! O
  Muhammad, I will do whatever you command me to do. If you like I
  can bring the Akh-shabain mountains together and crush them all.’

• The Messenger of God (SAW) said: ‘It may be that God raises from
  among them a progeny who worship God alone and associate no
  partners with Him.’ (Bukhari #3059)
Prophet (SAW) forgave his enemies
• The people of the Quraish rebuked him, taunted
  and mocked at him, beat him and abused him
  They tried to kill him and when he escaped to
  Medina, they waged many wars against him.
• When he entered Makkah victorious with an
  army of 10,000, he did not take revenge on
  anyone
• He forgave all Even his deadliest enemy Abu
  Sufyan, who fought so many battles, was
  forgiven, and anyone who stayed in his house
  was also forgiven
Forgiveness
29- Spending Generously


• And give to the kindred his due and to the Miskin
  (poor) and to the wayfarer. But spend not wastefully
  in the manner of a spendthrift.)" [Isra, 17:26]

• Safwan bin Umayyah came to the Prophet (SAW) and
  he gave him a herd of sheep that was grazing
  between two mountains. He said only a prophet
  could give this and became Muslim. He returned to
  his people and said: ‘O my people accept Islam!
  Muhammad (SAW) gives out generously like one who
  does not fear poverty.’ (Muslim #2312)
Generosity
• Al-Hakim narrated: The Messenger of Allah
  (SAW) said: “ Allah is All-Generous and He loves
  generosity in sale, purchase and judgment.”

• ‘The Prophet (SAW) was the most generous of
  people. He was most generous during Ramadan
  when he met Gabriel (SAW); he would meet him
  every night during Ramadan to practice and
  review the Qur’an with him. The Messenger of
  God (SAW) was so generous, that he was faster
  than the swiftest wind in this regard. (Bukhari
  #6)
Generosity
• Abu Dharr(RA) said:
• ‘I was walking with the Prophet (SAW) in the
  Har’rah (volcanic region) of Madina and we
  faced the mount of Uhud; the Prophet (SAW)
  said: ‘O Abu Dharr!’ I said: ‘Here I am O
  Messenger of God!’ He said: ‘It would not please
  me to have an amount of gold equal to the
  weight of Mount Uhud, until I spend and give it
  out (in the sake of God) within a night or within
  three nights. I would keep a single silver piece of
  it to help those who are in debt. (Bukhari #2312)
30-He practiced what he preached



• I desire not to do behind your backs that which I
  ask you not to do. I desire nothing but reform so
  far as I am able. My welfare is only in Allah. In
  Him I trust and unto Him I turn. (Hood,11:88)

• Prophet (SAW) was always the first and foremost
  in obedience to the religion he brought, in
  worship to the Creator and in avoidance of the
  religious prohibitions
He had all 6 of the essential attributes
       pertaining to Prophets
• According to theologians, there are six essentials of
  Prophet hood common to all of the Prophets. They
  are:
1. Truthfulness,
2. Trustworthiness,
3. Communication of God’s commands,
4. Intelligence,
5. Infallibility and
6. Being free from all kinds of bodily and mental
   defects. History is a witness that the Prophet
   Muhammad, upon him be peace and blessings, had
   all of these six essential attributes in a most perfect
   fashion.
