The Most Perfect Human

As-Salāmu ‘Alaykum wa RaḥmatuLlāhi wa Barakātuh. A‘ūdhu BiLlāhi Minash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. BismiLlāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm.

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm, “I was sent to perfect good qualities of character.” Ṣadaqa RasuluLlah fi-ma qāl aw kama qāl. Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam said, “I was sent to perfect good character.”Most importantly, I was sent to perfect adab, good manners, morals, and states in people. Because people learn gradually. From Adam ‘alayhi s-salām to the present day, every prophet taught something new. Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is the last and most perfect human being. Every beautiful virtue, attribute, quality, and skill is embodied in our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. He ﷺ is a human being, he ﷺ looks like humans, but in every respect our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was specially created by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. This month is the month of his ﷺ birth. Even when he ﷺ was born, he ﷺ was born while prostrating. The developmental stages of babies passed very quickly for him ﷺ; that is, after one, two, or three months, things progressed. His ﷺ movements and speech were very early compared to others, because he ﷺ was far superior to humans in terms of the capacity for endurance given to him by Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. His ﷺ strength was both spiritual and physical. Because his ﷺ physical strength was immense. He ﷺ already had spiritual strength. No human body could withstand the word of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. A normal human body could not withstand the word of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. No one could face our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. In terms of apparent strength, his ﷺ power is such that there’s a ḥadīth that two, three or even five people were not as strong as the Prophet ﷺ. Sayyidinā Omar said this ḥadīth. Even if there were a thousand, even a ten thousand, they still wouldn’t match our Prophet’s ﷺ strength. Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wasallam is stronger than a million people, in that apparent sense. His ﷺ physical strength is such that Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla created him ﷺ different so that he could withstand spiritual strength. Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam was 63 years old – and even then, his ﷺ physical appearance was like that of a 30-year-old; his ﷺ beard was black, maybe five or ten white strands, or even less. At 60, we all turn completely white. Of course, our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam’s essence, his uniqueness, is one of a

kind. Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam is worth the whole world. Therefore, Allāh ﷻ created him ﷺ as such to carry all these states.

Shukr to Allāh ﷻ, we are from his ﷺ ummah. Shukr to Allāh ﷻ. Some people - we will say that again. If Non-Muslims say that, we might understand. But for a Muslim to say, "He’s a man just like you and me,” is completely illogical and unreasonable. Every aspect and state of our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam’s life was a miracle. Miracles are attributed to them, and karamāt are for ‘awliyā. So, for those who came after him ﷺ it’s not called a miracle. Miracles cannot be done by anyone else. Those are only for prophets. They exist in all of them. Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam had them. There were countless miracles in the life of our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. Some are well-known, some are very well-known. Some that people believed and some they didn’t believe, but of course, all true ones became well-known. He ﷺ split the moon in two. Water flowed from his ﷺ hand. He ﷺ gave water to all the thirsty companions. A gazelle came and spoke to him ﷺ. Insects and animals spoke in front of our Holy Prophet ﷺ. There are many miracles in the life of the Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wasallam.

Therefore, as we said, some who claim to be Muslims but deny the miracles have zero faith. They may be a Muslim; it’s just a word uttered from the mouth. Everyone who says “La ilaha illa Allāh” is a Muslim, but they are not necessarily people of faith. People of faith are those who follow the way of our Prophet ﷺ, believe in him ﷺ, respect him ﷺ, honor him ﷺ, and glorify him ﷺ. No one has been created greater than him ﷺ. Regardless of anything else, our Prophet ﷺ is above all religions in every respect. He ﷺ does not discriminate against people based on race. Everyone is part of the Prophet’s ﷺ ummah. All people are from his ﷺ ummah. Even the jinn are from his ﷺ ummah. Those who accept our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam are part of his ﷺ ummah. Those who don’t - that’s their business. Let them do whatever they want later on. They will regret it. Our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam opened his ﷺ way to everyone. Come and benefit from this blessing. If you say you don’t want it, then it’s up to you. May Allāh ﷻ protect us. May people not be mislead; especially, Muslims. May they not harm those who follow the way of our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam, and may they not look down upon those who show him ﷺ reverence. Because, unfortunately, shayṭān has deceived people these days. There are many who claim to be Muslim but do not show respect to our Prophet ṣallá Llāhu ‘alayhi wa-sallam. May Allāh ﷻ improve them. May Allāh ﷻ grant them guidance, in shā’a Llāh.

Wa min Allāhi t-Tawfīq. Al-Fātiḥa.
