Sunnah of the Week 2

Say (O Muhammad!): If you love God, follow me so that God loves you. (Al Imran, 3.31)

Once again, a crisis looms on the horizon.  People aiming to insult our beloved Book and beloved Messenger  are gathering forces.  How we respond reflects on our ummah and on HabibulAllah .  Will we show the patience and strength that the Prophet  showed in the face of adversity?  May Allah guide this ummah to follow his  example.

Aisha, the blessed wife of the Prophet, may God be pleased with her, was asked to describe the character of the Prophet, . She responded:

He was not foul in his actions, nor in his speech; he was not boisterous in the marketplace; he did not retaliate in kind to vile acts perpetrated against him; rather he pardoned and forgave.
