SUNDAY LECTURE
WOMEN
ners of the Prophet of Allah were (those of) the Quran. (Sahih Muslim). Anas ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, the servant of
the Prophet, said: The Messenger of Allah was the best, the most
generous, and the bravest of all people. One night, the people of AlMadinah were terrified by a sound towards which some hastened,
to be received by the Messenger of Allah on his way back. He had
already preceded them to the source of the sound.
He was riding an unsaddled horse that belonged to Abu Talhah,
with a sword slung round his neck, and he was saying: Do not be
frightened. Do not be frightened. (Sahih Muslim) People of selfsacrifice and valor sought protection behind the back of the Prophet
(peace be upon him) during moments of intense fighting: Whenever the battle grew fierce and the two parties clashed, we would
seek protection with the Messenger of Allah who was the closest of
us to the enemy. (Musnad Ahmad)
People of sagacity appealed to the broadness and depth of his wisdom: The Quraysh differed over who would replace the Black Stone
after the rebuilding of the Kabah (the Sacred House at Makkah) to
the point that a war was about to erupt among them. They agreed
to appeal to the judgment of the first person to enter (through the
gates of the Sanctuary), which was the Messenger of Allah. When
they saw him, they said: This is Al-Amin (the Trustworthy). We will
be satisfied with his decision. This is Muhammad.
He said: Bring me a cloth. He placed the stone in the middle of
the cloth and said: Let each tribe hold one side of the cloth, then
lift it up together, and then he laid it back with his own hands. (Ibn
Hisham, As-Sirah An-Nabawiyyah)
People of charity saw him as a more generous giver of good than
the freely going wind. He left nothing of material wealth to his heirs
except his white mule, his weapon, and a piece of land bequeathed
to charity. Anas ibn Malik narrated: A man asked of the Prophet,
so he gave him a flock of sheep filling a valley between two mountains. The man returned to his people, saying: O people, embrace
Islam. By Allah, Muhammad gives like one who fears no poverty.
(Musnad Ahmad)
This portrayal of virtues could go on and on. In every virtue he excelled, like a brilliant light nobly glittering on the loftiest of peaks.
But this grandeur and nobility of character was not a barrier that
isolated him from people.
The Messenger of Allah lived so closely to people, and was lenient
and kind to everyone, walking with the widows and the poor to fulfill
their needs, so much so that each believed themselves to be the
closest and dearest to him, in the same way that the sun sends its
rays and warmth so that each person profits and has a share without feeling that others are sharing in or rivals for its warmth. (Sheikh
Muhammad Al-Ghazali, Aqidat Al-Muslim)

resolve to assist Muslim students to
further their education, stressing that
the committee will collaborate with
other Muslim organizations to educate the needy through scholarships
and bursaries so that Muslims in the
region were empowered educationally.

an obligation to devise better practical
methods to give them a chance to realize their education dreams fulfilled.

Million bursary kitty has received a
boost of Sh200,000 from local Muslims, well-wishers and donors and appealed for more well-wishers, Muslim
charitable organizations and donors
to come out and support the fund for
sustainability.
