What i get from Forum : Secrets behind the Character and Greatness Prophet Muhammad S.A.W

By : Ustaz Raja Ahmad Mukhlis and Ustaz Hashim Zaini

Are we believe that Prophet is exist?

see Surah Yasin, verse 40

->everything that Quran said is something we difficult to see is it true or not. In this verse,

Sahih International

It is not allowable for the sun to reach the moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but each, in an orbit, is swimming.

This is say about everything in this world (sun,moon,earth and other planets) have their own orbit /way to move. they never crush. But, this surah/Quran is come to us about previous 1400++ ago. That time don't have satellite, don't have technology to see what happen/how sun,moon,earth,planets moves. But, Quran already state it. So, we should believe that Prophet is exist. and we should love Prophet Muhammad S.A.W more that we love ourselves.

Why we should love him? Because he never ask to appreciate what he did to us. Instead, he give shafaat to us when akhirat/eternity.

Second reason, believe to him is one of Rukun(Principle) Iman.

What is Islam? Islam is surrender. to who? In solat, we surrender to Allah.

see Surah Al-Mukminun, verse 14

Then We made the sperm into a clot of congealed blood then of that clot We made a (foetus) lump then we made out of that lump bones and clothed the bones with flesh then we developed out of it another creature. So blessed be Allah, the best to create!

We come from sperm+ovum --> become a clot of congealed blood( blood that clots) -----> foetus/lump ---->add bones ---->become us!

This surah is tell us how Allah create us, then we should move away our arrogant/ego to Allah. What we should do? Solat, surrender to Allah.

Do u see in solat, we takbir, Allahuakbar (we hands up). this movement is same like; for example, playing football, u suddenly kick other player, what would u do? u will hands up to him, rite? or in other situation, police catch a robbery, robbery hands up because don't want police kill him. This same situation in solat, we surrender to Allah..

Prophet Muhammad S.A.W is like our tourist guide, and Quran is like our book of life. Same situation, lecturer is our guide and teach us, lecture notes are our book for pass that subject.

In hadith Riwayat At-Tarmizi; (translate)

1) If he/she do bad things to us, dont do bad thing to him/her back. But we give good thing to him/her.

2) Stay away from Mazmumah, so we will be people who love to ibadah.

3) Pleased/Redha whatever Allah give to us, because it will make us rich people (heart/inside)

4) Do good things to neighbor (make them happy, sadakah, help when sick etc)

5)whatever we get thing that we like, we should happy also that others also get. (example, if we clever, we teach other. if we rich, we help other who poor etc)

6) Don't laugh too much, it will make us stubborn and heart death.

We should make more salawat to Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. why? because Prophet Muhammad S.A.W said, he waiting his IKHWAN ( brothers). His Sahabat/friends ask him, "Are u mean to us?" He said, "No, my ummat who believe to God and his Messenger"

So, Prophet Muhammad S.A.W means to us. Are we his ikhwan? Are we ready to see him? How can we find him in akhirat/eternity? On that time, its so crowded of people. and How we know that guy is Prophet Muhammad S.A.W?

Then, we should salawat to help us to find Prophet Muhammad S.A.W, get shafaat, etc.

Salawat:

Allhumma solli a'la saidina muhammad - اللهم صل على سيدنا محمد

Sallallahu a'laihi wasalam - صلى الله عليه وسلم

this one is short one, the long one can be in our solat, it is when first tahyat and last tahyat (sit). If we solat, automatic we say salawat to Prophet Muhammad S.A.W

That's all. thank you. The translation in english not so good. Im sorry.
