Describing Prophet Muhammad

Bismillah,

Al-Hamdulillah wa sallallahu ala rasulillah,

Brothers, this topic is heart movig. Becuase it’s about Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him.

Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him was of a height a little above the average. He was of sturdy build with long muscular limbs and tapering fingers.

The hair of his head
was long and thick with some waves in them.

His forehead
was large and prominent, his eyelashes were long and thick, his nose was sloping, his mouth was somewhat large and his teeth were well set.

His cheeks
were spare and he had a pleasant smile. His eyes were large and black with a touch of brown.

His beard
was thick and at the time of his death, he had seventeen gray hairs in it. He had a thin line of fine hair over his neck and chest.

He was fair of complexion and altogether was so handsome that Abu Bakr composed this couplet on him:
**“as there is no darkness in the moonlit night so is Mustafa, the well-wisher, bright.” **

**His gait **
was firm and he walked so fast that others found it difficult to keep pace with him.

His face
was genial but at times, when he was deep in thought, there there were long periods of silence, yet he always kept himself busy with something.

He did not speak unnecessarily and what he said was always to the point and without any padding. At times he would make his meaning clear by slowly repeating what he had said.

His laugh
was mostly a smile. He kept his feelings under firm control - when annoyed, he would turn aside or keep silent, when pleased he would lower his eyes (Shamail Tirmizi).

ALLAH… I ask Allah to grant us seeing the Prophet in the dream! And to gather us with him in Paradise. May Allah have mercy on whomever says ameen.

Husnay Yusuf, damay Isa, Yaday Baiza dari!
Annchaiy khoBan huma darang, tou tanha dari

Brother will we have a greater chance of redemption if we see the prophet in our dreams?

If these things were to be of any importance in Islam then we would have his sculpture made already!

wastage of time!

The scholars described the Prophet and how he looks like. And mentioning this, increases the love of the Person to the Prophet.....

Also, know that they also said, seeing the Prophet in the dream is a great sign for having a good ending.

Dress
His dress generally consisted of a shirt, tamad (trousers), a sheet thrown round the sholders and a turban. On rare occasions, he would put on costly robes presented to him by foreign emissaries in the later part of his life (Ahmed, Musnad).

His blanket had several patches (Tirmizi). He had very few spare clothes, but he kept them spotlessy clean (Bukhari). He wanted others also to put on simple but clean clothes.
Mode of living

His house
Was but a hut with walls of unbaked clay and a thatched roof of palm leaves covered by camel skin. He had separate apartments for his wives, a small room for each made of similar materials.

His own apartment contained a rope cot, a pillow stuffed with palm leaves , the skin of some animal spread on the floor and a water bag of leather and some weapons. These were all his earthly belongings, besides a camel, a horse, and an ass and some land which he had aquired in the later part of his life (Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawud).

Once a few of his disciples, noticing the imprint of his mattress on his body, wished to give him a softer bed but he politely declined the offer saying, "What have I to do with worldly things. My connection with the world is like that of a traveler resting for a while underneath the shade of a tree and then moving on."

Amr Ibn Al-Harith, a brother in law of the prophet peace be upon him, says that when the prophet died, he did not leave a cent, a slave man or woman, or any property except his white mule, his weapons and a piece of land which he had dedicated for the good of the community (Bukhari, Sahih Bukhari).

He advised the people to live simple lives and himself practised great austerities. He lived an austere life bordering on privation. His wife Aiysha (Radiya Allahu ^anha) says that there was hardly a day in his life when he had two square meals (Muslim, Sahih Muslim, Vol.2, pg 198). When he died there was nothing in his house except a few seeds of barley left from a mound of the grain obtained from a Jew by pawning his armour (Bukhari, Sahih Bukhari, Chapter "Aljihad").

He had declared unlawful for himself and his family anything given by the people by way of zakat or sadaqa (types of charity). He was so particular about this that he would not appoint any member of his family as a zakat collector (Sahah-Kitab Sadqat).

What a beautiful thing.

jazak-allah kher

Only the blessed ppl see rasool-Allah PA, very few ppl get that blessing.

I do wonder how you know all these things bro, but yes discussing the master of the universes is a rahma on all of us.

^

“master of the universes” is Allah or Mohammed(pbuh)??:confused:

No bro/sis.

Allah is the creator of the universe, but all creation was only for the glorification of Rasool-Allah. The universe was made so Allah's beloved be known, and glorified accordingly. The heavens and earths and all in between siong there praise to Rasool-Allah, the master of the worlds-the king of creation.

Allah is above, but as the creator and lord, the master and delight of the created is Rasool-Allah, the blessed one whose name is signed on every star!

I thought that was a pretty basic sunni belief. Yeah?

Very interested in knowing the source of your claim? :confused:

I was raised with love for Rasool-Allah, and I geuss my claim comes from how i was taught my Islamic Studies, also the "signing" of the stars is not literal, its just a phrase Yusuf Islam and dawud Warnsbury use to indicate that the whole universe is for Rasool-Allah.

Not my fault your probably some die hard KSA Islam followers! :D

mo_best, you're the one making assumptions not me. Whenever I see something being shown under the banner of Islam I try to see the source for it. It was an honest question, and if you dont have an answer you could've simply refrained from answering.

Well as a sunni I believe the Mohammed(pbuh) is the last and the most beloved prophet of Allah but I don't agree that he is the master/al-maalik or the king/al-malik of the universe...These two are the names and attributes of Allah not the Prophet(pbuh), please don't get confused. BTW, how do you know the universe was created for him?
