THE HUMBLE ONE
One
day Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) was going somewhere at noon and it was too
hot in the desert when He (S.A.W) saw an old woman carrying her luggage
on her head. Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) helped her and took the luggage
from the woman and carried it for her..
Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W)
asked the woman that where she was going and why? She said that I am
leaving this town as I have heard that a magician named Muhammad (S.A.W)
is in town.
As Holy Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) was very
patient and kind, He (S.A.W) didn't say a word and kept listening. The
old lady kept complaining that why she was leaving the town.
In
short the basic reason of her to leave the town was her misconception
about Muhammad (S.A.W), who was walking beside her and she didn't knew
it.
While walking with the Holy Prophet (peace be upon
Him), that old women noticed that this young man have a brightness on
his smiling and humble face. And she also noticed that His sweat is
perfumed. She was very impressed.
When they
reached the destination, Muhammad (S.A.W) put down the bag and was
about to leave when the old woman said,"O, kind person! At least tell
me your name!". Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) replied,"I am the person
because of whom you left the town."The old lady was amazed to listen
that and said that such a kind, helping and true person can never be
wrong and therefore she also accepted Islam.
