And it just made me think that there's so much to the Prophet in terms of my everyday life that I can think of.

See, Rasulullah ﷺ, one of the things that you learn from him is his absolute mindfulness at all times.

When he was with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, nobody worshipped like him.

Nobody worshipped like him.

We have a hadith, for example, that one of his wives saw him worshipping in such an intent way.

And she said to him, Ya Rasulullah, why do you take so much effort in worshipping when Allah has forgiven your past sins and your future sins? So he said to her, you know, should I not be a grateful servant? And Imam Baqir says that Rasulullah used to pray to Allah, but not on the flat of his feet, but on the toes.

um you know in that earnestness and he would spend his you know praying to god even when he was standing in this manner and beseech him and pray to him all night long and the ayat then came of sotaha which is We did not bring this forward that you should put yourself in difficulty for us.

I guess if the rest of society work on this as well, then no, it's not going to happen.

What does Allah SWT tell us about going to the Prophet in the Qur'an?

Yeah, I think as you rightly say, people go there and they unload themselves, their burdens, their difficulties, their insecurities.

And that's fine because Rasulullah ﷺ said to Amir al-Mumineen that يَا عَلِيْ أَنَا وَأَنتَ أَبَوَىٰ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ You and I are the fathers of this ummah.

So just like we would go in front of our father and say everything we need to say, knowing fully well that we are at the door of someone who loves us unconditionally.

And especially it becomes more poignant when our fathers have passed away.

We get a chance to go in front of Rasulullah ﷺ and say, you are our spiritual father.

So that itself is fine.

But these 40 hadiths seem quite

achievable.

And you can pick and choose.

There's a family.

Then look at all the hadith of Rasulullah and decide which ones you as a family think are doable, sustainable, and become a lifelong practice, inshaAllah.

What else does Allah SWT tell us about the holy practice? See, there are certain things that Allah says about Rasulullah that really...

make you sit back and think, mashaAllah, this is Allah the creator of the universe, the creator of every living being.

But what else does Allah tell us about this amazing

Mm.

You called him yourselves, signing one and two, one and two, sometimes four of you on one letter.

Sent a whole lot of letters to him in Mecca.

Where is your honor? Suddenly now because Ibn Ziyad has come, and he is putting pressure on you and threatening you and all this, you forget everything that you...

People of deception and treachery, and now you are pretending to grieve at what has happened.

What do you think was going to happen? Once you abandoned us, what do you think was going to happen? If you had stood firm with Muslim, by some accounts, thousands of people had given allegiance to Husayn ibn Ali al-Islam at the hands of Muslim.

Mm.

At the same time, they're able to show that huge empathy to the one who needs it, again, from Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

Where's that line? There

is a caution here.

I mean, like, yes.

So we now have two actions, which is the right of the person.

One is the right of the person for you not to slander them or do evil of them.

One is the right of the person to be told, to be guided in something that they might suffer loss in.

So we have two particular cases that I mentioned.

And do you think maybe we can progress a lot quicker in our journey to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala by seeing things, actions for what they are, just how vividly Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is painting this picture, whether they're right or wrong?
