Prophet Muhammad (Sallallay

wa aalay wa sallam) a mercy

to the worlds.
•Rasulullah (SAW) mended his own clothes.
Never asking his wives to do it.

•He milked the goats himself for family use or

to sell.
•Whenever he came home and did not see
food ready to eat,
•he folded up his sleeves to help his wife
cook.
 Sayidatina 'Aisyah relates:
”If Nabi ’s home he’ll always help in
the household chores

If he hears Azan, he quickly got ready

to go to the mosque and will return as
soon as the prayer is completed.
 Once he came back early in the morning.
He must be hungry at that time.
But he saw nothing for breakfast
There was no uncooked food either as Aisha
has not gone to market
So Nabi asked
“Is there any breakfast O Khumaira?"
(Khumaira is a loving name given to
Sayidatina 'Aisyah which means ‘ one who is
reddish.)
• Aisyah ,feeling guilty, replied ,,
• “Nothing yet O Rasulullah."
• Rasulullah then said,
• ”If that’s the case, Ill just fast today."
• Without a sign of disappointment on his face.
 Rasuluulah ever said,
”The best man is one who’s best and gentle
to his wife."
He must exhibit care, patience and love as
the head of the family.
•Once Rasulullah (SAW) became the Imam in a
prayer.
•His companions noticed that his movements
from one action to another was with dififulcty.
•They even heard sounds as if the joints in his
noble body is rubbing against each other.
•As soon as Salat was completed:
•Sayidina Umar who could not bear see him in
that condition asked him”
 O Rasulullah, we see as if you are suffering
from a terrible condition, are you sick O
Rasulullah?"
 ”No, O Umar.
 Alhamdulillah, I am healthy and fresh"
 ”O Rasulullah... why is it every time you move
your body we hear as if your joints are rubbing
against each other?
 We are sure you are sick
 Umar insisted anxiously.
Finally Rasulullah lifted his shirt.
The companions were shocked.
His stomach was flat,
they saw it tied with a cloth filled with pebbles,
to control his hunger.
The stones were the ones making the sounds
whenever he moved.
O Rasulullah, is it that if you tell us that you are
hungry and have no food,
we will not get it for you, Sir?
• The prophet replied gently,
• ”No O my companions.
• I know, you all will sacrifice anything for your
Rasul.
• But what will I say in front of Allah,
• I as a leader, is a burden to my people?
• ”Let this hunger be a reward from Allah for me,
• so that my people will not experience hunger in
this world,
• more so in the next world.
 Once, Rasulullah (SAW), without feeling
awkward, eat beside a poor, dirty man infected
with skin disease.
He patiently and quietly endured when a Bedoun
harshly tugged at his shirt until there was red
marks on his neck.
And with humility, he cleaned the spot where the
Bedioun urinated in the mosque before gently
criticising his actions.
 His great love for Allah (SWT) and his
servitude to Him rejects any sense of
mastership
So much so that this gift from Allah is not a
reason for him to feel grander than others,
whether in public or alone.
While the doors of paradise are open widely
for him,
• he still stood up in the stillness of night
continuously worshipping,
• until once, he fell
• due to swollen legs
• His physical body could not withstand his
great spiritual desire.
When Sayidatina 'Aisyah asked,
"O Rasulullah, haven’t you been guaranteed
Paradise ?
Then why do you still go through this
difficulty?
He repiled lovingly,
”O 'Aisyah, am I not a servant?
Indeed I wish to be His grateful servant."
 That’s our beloved prophet,
a man unmatched by any
Described by Allah as ”insaan e kaamil’ (the perfect
man)
How lucky we are to have him as our leader.
Let’s benefit from the great treasure that he was sent
down with.
May Allah give us the strength, courage and piety to
follow his footsteps.
Ameen
Rasulullah s. a. w. said,
”Pass on my reminder, even if it’s a sentence”.
