relations and conversations with the Prophet
his companions
The Prophet (saas) showed great interest to the Muslims around him. He always kept an eye on faith, behavior, health, happiness and health of each of them. He noticed the gaps and needs of each other and made sure they are quickly filled. In each of his conversations, he seemed affable and knew how to win their love. When they left, his companions set out again full of joy and satisfaction.
Ali, one of his most intimate family, describes his relationship with his companions and atmosphere that characterized their discussions:
His kindly hand was stretched to the limit and was the language that was more truthful. Nobody was more modest than he is in his attitude. The fear and deference invading whoever saw for the first time. Anyone who attended loved it. A man who wanted to praise him said: "I've never seen anyone comparable before and after him. Once someone asked something to the Prophet and he easily got him. "157
He was interested in all the people who sat around him and never gave the impression of treating one of them differently from others. He was always patient with those who were sitting beside him or did stand and never left one person before it was diverted to do lui.158
He was sensitive to the absence of his companions and inquired about their status when it not see them. He always asked how people would, if their business flourished. He described beautiful things beautiful and ugly ones were .159
He appreciated the honest and not suffering from any company other than their own. They came to sit beside her for a moment and when they left they left the heart happy. They took leave of him, became living proof and guides.160

Abu Dhar describes the deep affection for his companions of the Prophet:
I came to see him (the Prophet) and found him sitting on a bed. He got up and kissed me. This shows that the accolade is a good chose.166
Abu Huraira evokes a sense of consideration and humanity:
The Prophet did not withdraw his hand before the other person would have done first. 167
Prophet cared greatly the health of his companions. He recommended to the most wretched of gaining weight and overweight to diet and eat more modérée.168
In the case of certain diseases, he advised his companions to take a drink made of miel.169
It Abu Huraira had seemed unwell one day, then the Prophet raised it, brought him home and gave him milk when he realized he was suffering from faim.170
The Prophet loved to laugh and
joking with his companions
From the testimony of the companions, the Prophet joked frequently with his family and companions, laughed at their jokes, and gave them nicknames and nicknames. But as always, the Prophet acted prudently and in accordance with the rules of good moral when he was joking. Here is a summary of advice that the Prophet gave his companions about the joke:
Just kidding, but I always tell the truth.
It is not permissible for a Muslim to frighten his brother.
Do not argue with your brother, do not mess with him in offensive terms.
Shame on him who lies to entertain the audience.
One can become a true believer As we do not renounce the lie, even in jest, and argumentative, even if it is right.
Do not lie, even for plaisanter.171
Prophet's advice about the fraternity
One of the most important topics addressed by the Prophet was that of brotherhood: the believers should love one another sincerely and without thinking about their personal interests, they should not harbor feelings of hatred, anger or jealousy towards each other. The Prophet was an excellent example of this and gave them further advice on this point. In the Quran, God says about this:
This is the [good news] that God tells those of His servants who believe and do good works! Say: "I do not ask you any wage for this affection is given to [our links] parentage." And whoever performs a good deed, We shall give [an award] more beautiful. Allah is Forgiving,. (Surat ash-Shura: 23)
Here are some hadiths that reflect the qualities of the Prophet 'in terms of affection, friendship and brotherhood: A believer
loves for others what he loves for himself même.172
The Messenger of God had the habit of receiving gifts and to make retour.173
He to whom we offer a basilisk must not reject it because it is light in weight but by its pleasant odeur.174
Do not hate one another, do not envy one another, do not bid on the sale of others, do not argue and do not slander one another. The servants of God are brothers to each autres.175
mores of previous generations, hate and envy you have earned. Hatred is destructive. You will not return to paradise as you will not believe. You will not believe as you do not love. I tell you what will promote brotherly love among yourselves. Spread peace (salaam) from vous.176
interest and affection for the children of the Prophet
compassion and kindness of the Prophet Muhammad against believers also occur through his attitude towards children. The Prophet showed great interest in his children and grandchildren, as well as those of his companions. He made many recommendations about them on birth, the choice of their names, their health, their education, clothing, games: in all these areas he always got involved very actively.
For example, shortly before his daughter Fatimah gave birth to her two grand-son, he said: "When he is born, do nothing to the child without informing me." 177 After birth it shows how to feed them, care for and protect them.
The Prophet also prayed for newborns to children, grandchildren and those of his companions. When he took over his knee or when he watched them play, he implored God to grant them a long life full of prosperity and wisdom and faith. On each occasion, he prayed for his grandchildren and son Hassan Hussein, adding that the prayer he used was the same as that used for Abraham and Isaac Ismaël.178
Ibn Abbas, one of the companions says that when he was a child, the Prophet said: "God, teach him wisdom." When Anas bin Malik, another companion, was young, he asked God to give him a fortune abundant offspring and a large long life, hoping that this would bring the bonheur.179
The Prophet attached great importance to children's games and he would even join them. He recommended parents to participate by saying: "He who has a child or a child with him." 180 He suggested to engage children games such as swimming, running and wrestling, and encouraged his own grandchildren and children around him to do so.
Many comrades have said how much the Prophet loved children and he used to play with them. Examples:
Anas bin Malik: The Prophet
was always among the first when he was playing and joking with enfants.181
Al-Bara 'ibn Azib (ra): I saw
Hassan on the shoulders of the Messenger of Dieu.182
Anas bin Malik said: The Prophet
sniffed and kissed his son Abu Huraira Ibrahim.183
described the Prophet's affection for children and how he played with them
I walked with the Messenger of God at any time of day but he did not talk to me and I do not speak up until it had reached the bazaar Banu Qounaiqa. He returned to the tent of Fatima and said: "Does the kitten (ie Hassan) is there?" We felt that his mother had chosen to bathe and dress and the hair of a pretty crown. Shortly passed before he (Hassan) might return in power and they kiss, what the Messenger of God said: "O God, I love him, love him and loves him who loves him (Hassan). .. "184
According to Anas bin Malik, the Prophet called him often to his grandsons Hassan and Hussein's son, and pressed against lui.185
Harith Ibn Rabi'a Ibni said
My father sent me and al-Fadl the son of Abbas from the Prophet. When we were in his presence, he made us sit at his right and left and we embraced more strongly than we had ever kissed. "186 The Prophet stroked often
children's heads and prayed for them. For example, Yusuf Ibn Abdullah Ibn Salam said that the Prophet often called by his name and he patted her head. Amr Ibn Houraye says his mother put him in the presence of the Prophet, and that he patted her head and prayed that he would always their daily subsistence. When Abdullah Ibn Utbah had five or six years, the Prophet patted his head and prayed as he had many descendants and live in ease Abu Huraira .187
relates several anecdotes showing the interest and affection of the Prophet mohammad for children: When people were harvesting
the first fruits of the season, they brought to the Messenger of God. When he received them he said: "O God, bless us and bless the fruits our city, our blessed her's [a unit of measure] and our mudd [another unit of measure]." He then called the youngest child and gave him the fruits.188
Each time he returned from a journey, had children out of his household to come and greet him. He pressed hard against him, as reported by 'Abd ibn Jafar God:
Whenever the Prophet returned from traveling, we were taken to meet him. One day we met, Hassan, Hussein and me. He took one of us in front and another on his back and carried us until we reached Médine.189
Once the Prophet went out during the day ... then he sat down in the paddock Fatima's house and asked to see the little boy (his grandson, son Hassan). After a moment the boy came running and the Prophet embraced him and kissed him tendrement.190
Jaabir bin Samurah said about it:
I performed the prayer with the Messenger of God. He then went to his family and I went with him, then he met children on the road. He began to tap their cheek. He also patted my cheek and I felt a freshness, a perfume that emanated from his hand and said we would come out of a bag of incense parfumeur.191
The Prophet Muhammad was sent to a time when we killing girls at birth, although he also stressed that one should not discriminate against girls in favor of boys, and it was a sin to kill them. By showing equal affection for both, he set a great example for the rest of society. Here is a hadith that shows the way:
A girl is a wonderful child, affectionate helpful, full of sweetness and already inhabited by the maternal instinct sacré.192
The Prophet expressed this condition in its words but in deeds. He often said to children how much he aimait.193
The Prophet never did favoritism toward one child over another. He showed the same affection to the children of believers as his own children and grandchildren. When Halid bin Said visited the Prophet, he had a daughter by his side, and the Prophet expressed his special affection because she was born in Abyssinia. One day while the Prophet took a room embroidered fabric in his hands, he called the girl and made him present, which fills with joy.
Jamra was a young child at that time. His father sometimes brought to the Prophet and asked him to pray for her. The Prophet took Jamra on his knees, placed his hand on his head, and prayed for her.
Usama, the son of Zaid, the Prophet's servant, keeps the memory of the Prophet:
The Messenger of God had the habit of placing me on one of his thighs and put Al-Hasan bin Ali on the other then we kissed and said: "O God! Be merciful to them, as I am to them. "194
Some people were unable to understand why the Prophet was playing with the children and was such an interest. One day, Akra bin Habis saw the Prophet kissing Hassan, and said
"I have ten children and have never kissed any of them." The Prophet looked at him and said: "To the one who is not merciful, we will be no mercy. "195
The Prophet often visited the nurse of his son Ibrahim, he showed affection for him and stroked his head. Anas bin Malik, the servant of the Prophet, shares another memory:
I never saw anyone more compassionate towards children than the Messenger of God. His son Ibrahim had been entrusted to a nurse who lived on the hills around Madinah. He went there and we accompanied him. He entered the house, took his son, kissed him and then went home lui.196
Our Prophet has strongly advised the believers to treat their children with fairness and said
Fear God and treat your children with équité.197
The Prophet also emphasized the importance of educating children, ensuring that instills good morals. He helped parents in their task by giving many advice in this area, here is a sample:
The best things a man leaves behind after his death are a virtuous child who invokes God in his favor, a perpetual charity, which he continues to collect the reward, and a science benefit continues to be useful after lui.198
One of the duties of a son toward his father is to ensure that his name and his behavior accord .199
Be good to your children and raise them properly for that 'They are well educated ... 200
In all areas, the Prophet Mohammad was an excellent role model for believers, and it was no exception. He summarized the importance of affection for children in this sentence: "There is not one of us who are merciful to the younger ..." 201
The Prophet's wives are Mothers of the Believers
The Prophet's wives are the mothers of the believers are models for all Muslim women because they were inhabited by genuine piety. We have many testimonies of faith and behavior of the wives of the Prophet, the affection they bore him, their great wisdom and morality we described in the Quran, Hadith, and tales of the Prophet's life. A
truths contained in the Quran about the Prophet's wives is that they are the mothers of believers
The Prophet is closer to the believers than they have on themselves, and his wives are their mothers ... (Surat al-Ahzab: 6)
In another verse, God forbids believers to marry the wives of the Prophet after his death
... you should not hurt the Messenger of God, or that ye marry his wives after him would be with God, an enormous sin. (Surat al-Ahzab: 53)
Other verses of the Koran tells us that the Prophet's wives are not like other women and describe how they should behave. We read this:
O wives of the Prophet! You are not like any other woman. If you're religious, do not be soft in speech, lest he in whose heart is sick [the hypocrite] do not covet. And hold a decent language. Stay in your houses and do not display yourselves like the women before Islam (Jahiliyah). Establish worship, pay you the zakat and obey Allah and His Messenger. God does not want to get rid of any stain, O people of the house [the Prophet], and purify you completely. (Surat al-Ahzab: 32-33 )
behavior pious wives of the Prophet, as revealed by these verses, namely, their willingness, their intelligence, their conscience, their modesty, their way of fulfilling their religious obligations, and their obedience to the Prophet, and their knowledge of the Koran and the sayings of the Prophet are models for all Muslim women.
God revealed in the Qur'an that the Prophet's wives will a double reward:
For indecency, the punishment will be doubled twice! And this is easy for God. And one of you is obedient to God and His Apostle and does good, We will give him twice his reward, and We have prepared for her a generous grant. (Surat al-Ahzab: 30-31)
The first wife of the Prophet was Khadija. She was also one of the first believers. When the Prophet received the revelation for the first time he spoke to him immediately. Khadija was renowned for his intelligence, insight and wisdom, and she embraced the faith on the field, providing tremendous support to the Prophet in the days that followed so taxing, providing physical and spiritual needs great efforts to help spread the message of the Koran.
Other wives of the Prophet such as Sauda, Aishah, Hafsah, Umm Habiba and Umm Salama, Safia, Maymunah, Zainab bint Jahsh, Jouwairya are also cited for their dedication, their patience and loyalty to the Prophet, and they were of excellent models for believers.
The Prophet was much interest in their wives and thus contributed to increasing their faith, their health, happiness and knowledge. It is said that the Prophet was playing with his wives and sometimes even made the race with them. His companions described his kindness towards them in these terms: "The Prophet loved to joke with his wives ..." 202
Aisha said:
I've never seen a man more compassionate to his family that Mohammad .203
The Prophet was known for his fairness vis-à-vis their wives. Thus, he divided equally between his visits them.
Anas bin Malik said: The Messenger of God
had nine wives. So when he divided his stays at each, around the first wife only came on the tenth day. They (his wives) were accustomed to meet in one of them where he spent the nuit.204 Many
the Prophet explained that a pious wife is a priceless gift. He has said for example: "The world is a better enjoyment and enjoyment is a godly woman." 205
The Prophet also told how to treat their wives companions: The best
believer's point of view of faith , is one who has the best behavior. The best among you is the one that best addresses its femme.206
The best among you is he who behaves best his wives, and I'm the best to my femmes.207
