Islamic Stories - Learn from this man, he is the best

When Mu'aawiyah ibn al-Hakam al-Salami cameto Madeenah from the
desert, he did not know that it was forbidden to speak during the
salaah. He relates: "Whilst I was praying behind the Messenger of
Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), a man sneezed, so
I said 'Yarhamuk Allaah (may Allaah have mercy on you).' The people
glared at me, so I said, 'May my mother lose me! What is wrong with
you that youare looking at me?' They began to slap their thighs with
their hands, and when I saw that they were indicating that I should be
quiet, I stopped talking (i.e., I nearly wanted to answerthem back,
but I controlled myself and kept quiet).
When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) had finished praying - may my father and mother be sacrificedfor
him, I have never seen a better teacher than him before or since- he
did not scold me or hit me or put me to shame. He just said, 'This
prayer should contain nothing of the speech ofmen; it is only tasbeeh
and takbeer and recitation of the Qur'aan.'" Source: Saheeh Muslim,
'Abd al-Baaqi edn., no. 537.
May Allah give us the beautiful qualities of Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
