Life of Holy Prophet As the Model of Excellence



Hazrat Muhammad is the only messenger of Allah and man in history whose entire life is recorded. Not only important events of his life but his daily life, from birth to death are written. His saying and his character have been preserved, his whole life, at home, in the mosque and outside. All these things are recorded so that future generations could know him, and that they could learn what he told.
Holy Prophets life is perfect. His life serves as an example for all men and women of all ages working in all professions. He not only preached but he also practised what he preached so that people can learn very well what he told them.
Some of Holy Prophets Teachings:
  • He taught people to be good and honest not only in their private matters but also in public dealings.
  • He taught people not only in mosque, at home he advised his family, and in market he taught people the principles of buying and selling.
  • He talked about state matters which laid the foundations  of international law.
  • He gave his companions civil and criminal code of judgments which later became law of Islamic state.

In childhood he was herdsman, he looked after the sheeps and goats of his neighbours and family. Later he carried out trade and went on trade journeys. He married, and had childrens and lived a very happy and peaceful life with his family. Later at Madinah he became the head of the community, he acted as a judge, administrator, a military commander, and finally, head of the state. His life is perfect role model for the people to follow to attain goodness, piety and success in their personal and social life.
He was simple, sincer, and truthfull person. From a poor orphan boy, he rose to the position of a king, but never lived a life of king. As an head of empire he kept himself equal to others, he helped he wives in house works, he mended his shoes and cloths, in building of mosque in Madinah he worked as an ordinary labourer. He also took part in digging of trench in battle of trench.
What Quran says about His Character and Personality

  • Lived a life or ordinary men.
  • He helped poors, orphans and the widows, was kind to weak, and hospitable to strangers and travellers.
  • He was loving towards his friends, forgiving and merciful to his enimies.

Relation between Prophet Muhammad (Hadis) and QuranQuran is Allahs command and life of Holy Prophet is fulfillment of His command. Allahs command are contained in its original form in Quran. Holy Prophet was commanded to communicate the revealed messages and to make his life as a role model for the people. Prophets saying and actions are preserved in the form of Hadis. These two praimary sources Quran and teachings and the example of Hazrat Muhammads life will always provide light and guidance to those who need it.
