HOW TO LOVE THE PROPHET – Book Sample

Introduction – HOW TO LOVE THE PROPHET

All praises are due to Allah, the Omnipotent, and the Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His Servant and Messenger. May Allah’s peace and blessings be upon our beloved Prophet, Muhammad, and upon his wives, Mothers of the Believers, the rest of his household, his Companions, and whoever follows his guidance!

To commence, love for Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the driving power that has always motivated Muslims to set marvelous examples of obedience, compliance, longing, benevolence, and sacrifice. That was most obviously observed among the Prophet’s Companions and their successors (At-Tabi’un) (may Allah be pleased with all of them), so they were granted success in worldly life and happiness in the Hereafter.

However, as far as the issue of loving the Prophet is concemed, Muslims of today can be classified into different sections:

– A section of Muslims harbor great love for the Prophet (pbuh) but they express their love in ways that have no origin in the religion of Islam.

– Another section of Muslims suffer the negative impact of westernization and lack of Islamic education. Perhaps these Muslims remember the Prophets (pbuh) only at the beginning of the month of Rabi’ al-Awwal (in which the Prophet (pbuh) was born), especially when they start to hear related songs and observe other secular ways of celebration. Muslims who stick to such ways think that they thus celebrate the memory of their Prophet’ s birth, though some of them neglect offering prayers and work as destructive means of seduction, particularly on the part of women!

– A third section of Muslims, who are supposed to be pious and religious, have come to harbor “cool” feelings of love for the Prophet (pbuhı. This may be because they are over cautious of not indulging in such extravagant ways which others use to express their love, or because they do not understand the reality of such a special kind of love and how it should be practically expressed.

– In addition to the above mentioned sections, there are other categories of Muslims who love – or pretend to love – the Prophet (pbuh). but not in the right way.

Nevertheless, I do believe that there are many Muslims who have undivided tendency towards their religion and pure love for their Prophet (pbuh), yet they just need some kind of effective advice and positive direction. For this reason, I introduce this book that shows the right way in which a Muslim can express his love for the Prophet (pbuh). The contents of this treatise are mainly based on texts from the Ever-honorable Qur’an and the Sanctified Sunnah. Also, it is basically illustrated by examples set by the Companions of the Prophet and their successors. This is because they themselves have always been the best examples in this very respect as far love for the Prophet (pbuh) is concerned.

Finally, I ask Allah, the Almighty, to accept this effort and to grant us all benefit from it, for He Alo ne is Sufficient f or us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs. And, peace and blessings be upon our beloved Prophet Muhammad and upon his household and Companions! Nahif Hamid al–Mu ‘adh Sars al-Layyan, Munufiyyah

The Prophet’s Superiority and Elevated Position

The great religion of Islam ordains that Muslims should put people in their right positions, admit the superiority of the superiors, give rights to whom they are due, and not withhold from the people things that are their due.

Speaking about the superiority of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) will not add anything to this superiority, yet it will add to our love and appreciation for him and persistence to follow in his footsteps, and discoursing about the favors of Allah for His Messenger.

We are not going to speak at length about the Prophet’s superiority in the same way followed by the common people who only eulogize the Prophet’s position with repeated words. However, we seek to confirm a fact that has been stated by authentic and explicit texts and to remind Muslims of the greatness of the blessing with which Allah, the Almighty has honored us.

We also confirm that gratitude should be shown to Allah for this blessing through our hearts. tongues, and deeds, and that its effects and signs should be practically touched in all aspects of life. This is because when Allah (Glory be to Him) grants an honor He follows it with a relevant responsibility and when He bestows a blessing He follows it with a related duty.

As speaking about the superiority of the Prophet (pbuh) is a field that is too spacious to be comprehended by words, however numerous or comprehensive they may be, it may be better to refer to what is mentioned in the Ever-honorable Qur’an and the Prophetic Sunnah in this connection then to the scholars’ deductions and conclusions regarding these references.

The Prophet’s Superiority in the Qur’an

The Qur’an states that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was sent as Allah’s blessing to all humanity in general and to the believers in particular:

Allah did confer a great favour on the Believers when He sent amoııg theın a Messenger from among themselves, rehearsiııg unto theın the Signs of Allah, sanctifying theın, aıul instructing thenı in Scripture aııd Wisdom, while, before that, they had been in manifest error. ….
