The Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w)

I really liked the book I read because I learned stuff and now I know how why I should change my behaviour with others. I learned that the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) had the best character. He did not quarrel, lie or act arrogantly. He was humble, kind and understanding. These are the things I need to include in my character too.
The best part of the book was the description of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) by Ali (r.a). Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) was of medium height. He had broad shoulders, curly hair and white skin. I bet the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) was a beautiful person inside and out. I only wish I could see him and also become just like him.

Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) lived in an era of abject poverty. The number of poor, hungry and homeless people are on the rise everywhere in the world. Even in developing countries like the US, Canada and UK, many people are begging on the streets and eating out of garbage cans. But we do nothing to help them while the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) worked hard to close the gap between the rich and poor. Whenever food was presented to him, even it was scarce, he would always share it with those around him. Even when he had only one cup of milk and a few grains of rice, he would allow others to eat from it before he would take a bite. MashaAllah Allah blessed him so much because of his generosity that even though there was insufficient food to go around, it still satisfied everyone.
Alhamdulillah today there is no problem of food shortages in the grocery stores and in our fridges at home. In fact we throw food out because so much is left over. Instead of wasting money and wasting food we can save some and give it out to those who are dying for it. We can save so many lives and bring Islam to so many people with just a little effort.
