My Teacher

Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim
Assalammualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

[al-Ahzab:21]

He was most modest, and the first one to cast his eyes down. Abu Sa'id al Khudri r.a. said: "He was shier than a virgin. When he disliked something, we could read it on his face. He did not stare at anybody's face. He would always casts his eyes down. He would look at the ground more than the sky. The most he would look at someone was by glancing. He was willingly and modestly obeyed by everybody. He would never name a person whom he had heard ill-news about something he hated, instead he would say: 'Why do certain people do so...'"

This beautiful man is our prophet, our beloved messenger, the one and only Muhammad ibn Abdullah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). Only Allah knows how our hearts ache to meet him (s.a.w.) and how this soul longs to feel his (s.a.w.) presence with us in the Mercy of Allah ta'ala.

O' Allah!
Send Your blessings (and the magnificent Words of Yours)
upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad,

as You have send blessings upon Ibrahim and the family of Ibrahim.
You are Worthy of all praise. All-Glorious.

Wallahua'lam
Segala puji hanya bagi Allah, Tuhan sekalian alam
