Bismillah, praise to Allah SWT, Who sent the Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa to serve as a leader and guide to the human race.<\/p>\n

We should be grateful for the Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa arrival and his messages. His character traits and morals ought to serve as constant examples throughout our life. We should strive to emulate the Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa character, as doing so will demonstrate our love for him.<\/p>\n

Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa is a kind, gentle, and compassionate person. He wasn\u2019t a cruel or violent person. He was suppressed by the polytheists while in Mecca, but when he opened the city of Mecca in the event of\u00a0<\/span>fathu Makkah<\/em>, the Prophet did not take vengeance on the evildoers \u2013 even though the Muslims were extremely powerful at that time.<\/p>\n

A Bedouin Arab once arrived and pulled the cloth from the Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa shoulder while demanding to be given the treasure. The Prophet \ufdfa then simply turned around and laughed before ordering his companion to give the man some property. The same is true in other situations. Allah noted his attitude as follows:<\/p>\n

\u0641\u064e\u0628\u0650\u0645\u064e\u0627 \u0631\u064e\u062d\u0652\u0645\u064e\u0629\u064d \u0645\u0650\u0651\u0646\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u0670\u0647\u0650 \u0644\u0650\u0646\u0652\u062a\u064e \u0644\u064e\u0647\u064f\u0645\u0652 \u06da \u0648\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0648\u0652 \u0643\u064f\u0646\u0652\u062a\u064e \u0641\u064e\u0638\u064b\u0651\u0627 \u063a\u064e\u0644\u0650\u064a\u0652\u0638\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0652\u0642\u064e\u0644\u0652\u0628\u0650 \u0644\u064e\u0627\u0646\u0652\u0641\u064e\u0636\u064f\u0651\u0648\u0652\u0627 \u0645\u0650\u0646\u0652 \u062d\u064e\u0648\u0652\u0644\u0650\u0643\u064e \u06d6 \u0641\u064e\u0627\u0639\u0652\u0641\u064f \u0639\u064e\u0646\u0652\u0647\u064f\u0645\u0652 \u0648\u064e\u0627\u0633\u0652\u062a\u064e\u063a\u0652\u0641\u0650\u0631\u0652 \u0644\u064e\u0647\u064f\u0645\u0652 \u0648\u064e\u0634\u064e\u0627\u0648\u0650\u0631\u0652\u0647\u064f\u0645\u0652 \u0641\u0650\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0652\u0627\u064e\u0645\u0652\u0631\u0650\u06da \u0641\u064e\u0627\u0650\u0630\u064e\u0627 \u0639\u064e\u0632\u064e\u0645\u0652\u062a\u064e \u0641\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0648\u064e\u0643\u064e\u0651\u0644\u0652 \u0639\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u0670\u0647\u0650 \u06d7 \u0627\u0650\u0646\u064e\u0651 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u0670\u0647\u064e \u064a\u064f\u062d\u0650\u0628\u064f\u0651 \u0627\u0644\u0652\u0645\u064f\u062a\u064e\u0648\u064e\u0643\u0650\u0651\u0644\u0650\u064a\u0652\u0646\u064e \u0661\u0665\u0669<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is out of Allah\u2019s mercy that you \u02f9O Prophet\u02fa have been lenient with them. Had you been cruel or hard-hearted, they would have certainly abandoned you. So pardon them, ask Allah\u2019s forgiveness for them, and consult with them in \u02f9conducting\u02fa matters. Once you make a decision, put your trust in Allah. Surely Allah loves those who trust in Him.\u201d \u00a0[Ali Imran 3:159]<\/em><\/p>\n

Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa is also a patient, understanding, and calm person when dealing with the emotions of a woman, his wife. Particularly when involved in polygamous relationships, women are notoriously envious. This frequently occurred when he was in his home and received food from one of his wives.<\/p>\n

Due to jealousy, she struck the food carrier\u2019s hand, causing the food to fall and the plate to break in two. When the plates and food fell to the ground, Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa calmly picked them up and handed them back to the sender, saying, \u201cYour mother (ummahatul mukminin) is jealous, you can\u00a0eat this instead.\u201d<\/p>\n

Imagine how calmly he handled his wife\u2019s emotions during that time and how he did not react emotionally. He never becomes enraged, much less raises his voice or strikes. He was\u00a0composed and never\u00a0act negatively or aggressively. Most often, when treated as such, other men will react emotionally.<\/p>\n

The Prophet \ufdfa also was gentle and sincere in his instruction for\u00a0the companions to perform\u00a0prayer properly. When a friend who had just converted to Islam was speaking during a prayer, Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa gently counselled him, \u201cYou cannot speak during prayer. It consists solely of reciting the Qur\u2019an, the Takbir, and the tasbih.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Companion addressed: \u201cBy Allah, I have never encountered a teacher before or since who was more helpful than the prophet. He didn\u2019t chastise or hit me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa gentleness can be seen in his interactions with children. Imagine being able to sit with children as an adult who is God\u2019s messenger\u00a0and the head of a nation. Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa prayed, and afterwards the Prophet\u2019s grandsons, al-Hasan and al-Husayn, played by climbing up behind him. The The Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa was not upset by this.<\/p>\n

Similarly to this, when he was an Imam leading a\u00a0prayer and he heard a young child crying, he hurried the prayer in order to spare the child\u2019s mother\u2019s peace. And he didn\u2019t say, \u201cWhy even bother bringing the kid to the mosque? Just perform\u00a0prayers at home if you are aware that some young children like to cry.\u201d The Prophet \ufdfa is far from such a character.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Even when seated with a friend, with the adult seated on the left and the children on the right. Even though they were seated next to an adult who was also one of his close friends, he offered drinks to the kids on the right first.<\/p>\n

Another instance was when he kissed his grandson and a companion said, \u201cI have ten children, and I have never kissed a single one of them.\u201d \u201cWhoever does not love will not be loved,\u201d Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa continued.<\/p>\n

We can only partially capture the Prophet\u2019s gentleness and caring nature in this piece of writing. There are numerous other instances and stories from Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa that demonstrate the kind, compassionate, and understanding traits of his character that we ought to imitate. May we begin a new chapter to practice\u00a0the prophet\u2019s virtues and good character\u00a0in order to follow in his footsteps.<\/p>\n
