Benefit of the Sunnah\"images<\/a><\/span><\/b>
\nThe lifestyle and way demonstrated by the Rasool \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645 transformed an entire nation, from heinous practices and beliefs and made it one of simplicity, elegance, spirituality, peace of mind and heart that made other civilizations and people marvel at the Arabs transformation.
\nIn the incident that transpired between Ja`far bin Abi Talib \u00a0\u0631\u0636\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0646\u0647and the Quraish in the court of the Abyssinian King, The Najaashi bear testimony to what the Prophet brought and type of life he lived and preached.
\nAllah himself says in the Holy Quraan (3\/31) : \u0627\u0650\u0646\u0652 \u0643\u064f\u0646\u0652\u062a\u064f\u0645\u0652 \u062a\u064f\u062d\u0650\u0628\u0651\u064f\u0648\u0646\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647\u064e \u0641\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0628\u0650\u0639\u064f\u0648\u0652\u0646\u0650\u064a\u0652 \u00a0(\u201cIf you love Alllah then follow me (meaning the Rasool) \u00a0\u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645
\nHe has become so beloved to Allah that if people want someone to follow a map in gaining the love of Allah, it means they have to follow the Rasool \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645 \u00a0because he has the perfect path. Hence the reason Muslims are asked to follow the way of the Rasool \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645 as a path of religion.
\nAn incident from the lives of the Sahaba gives testimony to the greatness of the Prophet and has within it a beautiful lesson as well.
\nOnce some guests came to visit Hazrat Anas Bin Malik \u0631\u0636\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0646\u0647 .He entertained them with a meal.The table cloth became dirty and discoloured, due to some curry having fallen upon it.Hazrat Anas \u0631\u0636\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0646\u0647 \u00a0instructed the made servant to cast it into the burning furnace. The servant did as she was commanded.
\nThe guests were astonished at this command. When the tablectoth was thrown into the burning furnace, they awaited the appearance of smoke to indicate that the tablecloth was burning.But instead when the table cloth was removed from the fire,it was still intact and had become clean.
\nThey asked him :O companion of the Rasool \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645 ,why did this table cloth not burn in the fire?And instead of burning ,had become perfectly clean.
\nHazrat Anas\u0631\u0636\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0646\u0647 \u00a0replied: The reason for the tablecloth not burning is this that on various occasions Rasooullah \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645 cleaned his hands and lips with the cloth.
\nNow Maulana Rumi says: : \u201dO you who have become frightened of the fire and punishment of Jahannam
\nIt is advisable that you draw near to such blessed hands and lips,by following the Sunnat.
\nWhen something material has been granted such honour by the lips of Rasoolullah\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645 You can imagine what honour he must have granted to his true Lovers.\u201d
\nLesson<\/b>: When the tablecloth was granted this honour by the wiping of his blessed hands one can imagine what honour and nearness to Allah will be granted in both the worlds to those who follow the Sunnat diligently, which is a way of obtaining Divine Proximity. May Allah grant us all the the ability to follow the Sunnat and make us anxious to attain that great bounty from him, Ameen.(Ma-aarifi Mathnavi pg.184)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
