9 Seerah of Prophet Muhammed 1 - Specialities of Prophet Muhammed - Yasir Qadhi - April 2011
Insh'Allah before we start the seerah to build up even greater eagerness and motivation, we will study the prophet PBUH's specialities.
So where to begin when we describe the one whom Allah has chosen above the entire creation. How is it possible to do justice when Allah says "We have raised up your rememberance and mention". And indeed whenever Allah is mentioned, the prophet SAW is almost always mentioned straight after. When Allah himself called his "rahma-tul-lil- alameen". The embodiment of rahma (mercy). Indeed the prophey PBUH's sending is mercy. His message is mercy. His teachings are mercy. He is everything associated with mercy.
We begin by mentioning some of the names - he had many names. Some scholars wrote up to 250 names for the prophet PBUH.
The name Muhammad is mentioned 4 times in the Quran - the name Ahmad is mentioned 2 or 3 times, on the tounge of Isa AS in the Quran "I am going to tell you of a prophet coming after me - his name is Ahmad". Both names come from "hameda". And "hamd" means to praise - but not any type of praise. But "hamd" means to praise not in return for someone who has done a favour for you, but instead it is the highest possible level of praise. It is praise because he is worthy of being praised simply because of the inherent characteristics of the person. That is, he deserves to be praised for who he is. An object of perfection - he is worthy of praise. And he has these two names: Muhammad and Ahmad, both come form "hamd". Why? Because Allah, the angles, all the prohpets, every single one of mankind praises him. Indeed muslims non stop every second; and non muslimsa alike - they praise his character and qualities. So he is praised by everything in creation. There is no human before, now or after who is praised more than the prophet PBUH.
In a long sahih hadith it's narrated that on the day of judgement, everyone will know that Islam is the truth but of course it is too late to believe now. And so the people will go to Adam AS and tell him "Oh Adam, you are our father and Allah blew his ruh into you, do you not see the situation your children are in?" They will ask him to go to Allah to start the reckoning and ask for forgiveness but he will say "I commited a sin I should not have done and I'm worried about myself" - and so he will say "Naf see" meaning go to another person. Then humanity at larfe will then go to Nuh AS, but he will also say "Allah told me not to ask anybody to be saved, and I asked Him to save my son and I disobeyed him". So Nuh AS is also worried about himself and will say "Naf see". Then they will go to Ibrahim AS will give the same response, that "I made 3 lies" even though they aren't lies but he is just so worried. One of the lies were when he said "the big idol did it" to his people after destroying the idols (where he wasn't lying, but trying to make a point and give dawah). Another was when he said "I am sick" when his people went out of town and he said "I don't want to go with you" - only so he could destroy the idols. And lastly when he called his wife "his sister" i.e. in islam, only to save him from the
