RASOOLALLAH صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم IS A UNIQUE HUMAN BEING


Some people believe the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) to be a human being just like any other human being. The Ahle Sunnah Wal Jama'at believes that besides being Noor (light), the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is a most unique and perfect human being.

The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is "Rahmatul lil Alameen". He is the only creation of Allah Ta'ala who has been given this title and no other creation can be given this title. Allah Ta'ala says in the Holy Quran: "And I have not sent you but as Mercy unto the Worlds". (Part 17 Ruku 7) the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) has stated: "Every Nabi only comes towards his people and I have been sent unto all nations. I have been sent as a Messenger unto the entire creation." (Mishkaat Shareef; Sahih Muslim Shareef)

In the Holy Quran it has been stated that the women who married the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) are the most unique women amongst all the women. If just by marrying the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) they are considered to be so great, then who can compare or be more unique than the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)?

The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said: "I am not like any one of you". (Tirmidhi; Sahih Bukhari)

Hazrat Ali (radi Allahu anhu) said: "I have not seen anybody similar to the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) either before of after." (Tarikhe Kabeer; Tirmidhi Shareef)

The Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) stopped his Sahaba from keeping continuous fasting without partaking in Sehri and Iftaar. When the Sahaba-e-Ikram insisted that they also fast in the manner as Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) kept his fasts, he told them: "I am not like (similar to) you. I am given food and water." (Sahih Bukhari; Sahih Muslim)

None of the Sahaba-e-Ikram (radi Allahu anhum) ever told Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) that he is a human being like them, that he has two hands and feet like them, that he eats and drinks like them and that he has wives and children like them.

Concerning the blessed face of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam), Hazrat Aisha Siddiqa (radi Allahu anha) states: "I was sewing something at the time of Sehri and the needle fell down. I searched very much for it, but it could not be found. Just then the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) entered and, through the brightness of his face, I found the needle." (Khasaais Kubra; Al-Qaulul Badi'lisaqawi)

The saliva of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is not unclean nor does it cause any illness, but it is the cure for illnesses. On the day of Khaibar, the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) put his blessed saliva into Hazrat Ali's (radi Allahu anhu) eyes and he was completely cured. (Mishkaat Shareef; Masnade Imam Ahmed) The well at Hazrat Ali's house (radi Allahu anhu) was very bitter. When the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) put his saliva into the well, the water became so sweet that no water in the entire of Madinah Munawwarah tasted sweeter than that. (Madarijun Nubuiwat; Anwaarul Muhammadiyah)

The blessed perspiration of Hazrat Muhammad Mustapha (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) possessed a sweet smelling fragrance. Hazrat Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha), the mother of Hazrat Anas (radi Allahu anhu), said that the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) used to go to the house of Hazrat Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha) to make Qailula (rest after lunch). Hazrat Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha) used to lay for him a bedspread made from skin. He used to lie on that skin and he perspired very much. Hazrat Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha) used to collect the blessed perspiration of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) and mix it in perfume. The Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) asked, "O Umme Salim! What is this?" She said, "Ya Rasoolallah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)! It is your blessed perspiration. I mix it in my perfume because your blessed perspiration is the best perfume amongst all perfumes." (Mishkaat Shareef; Bukhari Shareef)

The blessed blood of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is Paak (pure). During the Battle of Uhud, the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) was wounded. Hazrat Malik bin Sunaan (radi Allahu anhu), the father of Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (radi Allahu anhu), began to suck out the blood from the wound of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) and it began to look white. The Sahaba asked him to spit it out. He refused to do so and said, "I swear by Allah that I will never spit this blood out of my mouth." He then drank the blessed blood of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said, "Whichever one of you wishes to see a Jannati man, you should look at him (Hadrat Malik bin Sunaan)". (Shifa Shareef; Madarijun Nabuiwat)

Hazrat Allama Ahmad Qistilaani (radi Allahu anhu), the commentator of Bukhari Shareef, states: "Make yourself aware that the physical body of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) was created in such a way that no one was created similar to him before and nor will their be any one similar who will be born after him." (Muwahibul Ladaniyah)

After examining the authentic narrations from distinguished books, we see that the Aqeeda of the Sahaba-e-Ikram and of the great Scholars was that the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is a unique human being and there is no one that is like him, equal or similar to him. He is the most unique amongst the creation of Allah Ta'ala.
