A glimpse into Hazrat Muhammad's (saw) character [Mawlid al-Nabi, Mawlid an Nabi]

Just as Hazrat Muhammad's (saw) birth and the events that followed his
blessed birthwere extraordinary and suggestive of his majesty and
supreme character, so his behaviour and manner of speaking in
childhood also made him different from other children. Hazrat Abd
Al-Muttalib, the chief of the Quraish tribe, did not treat his
grandson like other children, but held him in great respect and
reverence.
Hazrat Abu Talib ibn Abd Al-Muttalib, Hazrat Muhammad's (saw)
uncle,used to say, 'We have never heard any lies fromMuhammad, nor
have weseen him misconduct himself or make mischief.He never laughs
unduly nor speaks idly and he is mostly alone'.
Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was seven years old when the Jews remarked,'In
our Books we have read that the Prophet of Islam refrains from eating
any food which is religiously prohibited or doubtful. Let's try him'.
So they stole a hen and sent it to Hazrat Abu Talibibn Abd
Al-Muttalib. Not knowing that the hen had been stolen, all ate from
the cooked hen but Hazrat Muhammad (saw),who avoided even tasting it.
When they asked the reason for this avoidance of the food, he(saw)
answered, 'this food is forbidden by Allah (SWT), and Allah (SWT)
protects me against anything that He has forbidden.'
Then the Jews took a henfrom a neighbour, intending to pay for it
later on, and sent it to Hazrat Abu Talib ibn Abd Al-Muttalib's house.
Againhe (saw) avoided eating the hen, saying, 'this food is doubtful
and ...'
Then the Jews said, 'This child has an extraordinary character and a
supreme position'.

Hazrat Muhammad (saw) as Wonderful Baby (Eid-E-Milad un Nabi, Birth celebration)

Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was born and his blessed birth gave rise to
numerous wonderful incidents in the sky and on the earth, especially
inthe East, the cradle of civilization.
News of these events spread quickly and informed the people of an
imminent, very significant incident. Sincethis newborn child was
predestined to destroy the people's old superstitious beliefs and
customs and to lay new foundations for human progress and prosperity,
from the very beginning he sounded the reveille.
It is narrated that on the day which our Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was
born, the following incidents happened:
*. All the idols fell down.
*. The "Kasra Veranda" (a part of the palace of Iran's King) shook and
fourteen of its notches were damaged.
*. The "Saweh Lake" that people worshiped for years, dried up.
*. Water flowed in"Samaweh Desert", where no one had seenwater for many years.
*. The fire in the fire-temple of Persia was extinguished, which had
been flaming for several years.
*. On that night, a light came out from "Hijaz" and spread to the east.
So the humiliated worshippers of that false,destructive object of
worship, whose minds had been blocked by the obstacles of prejudice
and false imitation and who thus could not reflect upon nature took
notice of the truth and were attracted toward a totally different
direction.
Hazrat Muhammad (saw) in the Storm of events
Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was just six years old when his mother, Hazrat
Aminah bint Wahab, left Makkah for Medina to visit her relatives and
probably to pay a respectful visit to her husband's grave. He (saw)
accompanied his mother on that trip. But after visiting her
relativesand expressing love and loyalty to her husband at Hazrat
Abdullah ibn Abd Al-Muttalib's graveside, on her way back to Makkah,
Hazrat Aminah bint Wahab passed away at a place named Abwa. Thus,
Hazrat Muhammad (saw) had lost both his mother and father by that
tender age when every child needs a father's affections and a mother's
loving embrace.

Hazrat Muhammad's (saw) Birth and Childhood (Hafta-E-Wahdat, Week of Unity)

Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was born in the year 570 CE (fifty-three years
before the Hijrah) in the town of Makkah, a mountain town in the high
desert plateau of western Arabia. His namederives from the Arabic verb
Hamada, meaning"to praise, to glorify." He was the first and only
sonof Hazrat Abdullah ibn Abd Al-Muttalib and Hazrat Aminah bint
Wahab. Hazrat Abdullah ibn Abd Al-Muttalib died before Hazrat
Muhammad's (saw) birth.The precise date of his birth is disputed among
the historians, but Ayatullah Ruhullah Musawi al-Khomeini (ra), the
founder of the Islamic revolution had declared the week between 12th
and 17th Rabi al-Awwal as "Hafta-E-Wahdat" meaning "the week of unity
amongst Muslims." Muslims all overthe world are urged to get together
and celebrate (Eid-E-Milad un Nabi) the birth of Hazrat Muhammad (saw)
for the whole week.
The year in which our Hazrat Muhammad (saw) was born is called as the
Year of Elephant (Aam ul-Feel); it is because of that famous incidence
in which the ruler of Yemen, Abraha tried to destroy Kaaba using his
army of Elephants and a vast flock of small birds like swallows,
carrying pebbles in their beaks darkened the sky and pelted them down
upon the heads of Abraha's army causing deep puncture like wounds
killing many. It is also said that at the same time for the first time
in Arabia, the diseases of typhoid and smallpox appeared, affecting
the whole army. Abraha himself suffered from smallpox, and remained
alive only until he reached Yemen and died there. This is the theme
mentioned in Noble Qur'an, Chapter 105 'Feel' (Elephant).
The tribe that Hazrat Muhammad (saw) came from was named"Quraish".
This tribe was one of the most influential tribes that governed
Muslims centuries after Islam.

Why the Tawaf is performed anti clockwise?

Worshipping Allah in onedirection. Praising Allah in one direction.
When we revolve aroundthe Ka'aba we are orbiting in the same direction
as the whole universe and all the creations of Allah from the tiniest
particles, to the largest galaxies, along with the human race unite in
praise of Allah.
When we go around the Ka'aba, we are travelling in the land travelled
by all the prophets of Allah, from the prophet Adam (alaihis salaam)
to the Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
The Ka'aba in Makkah is never free from circumbulators.
The Blood inside the human body begins its circulation"Anticlockwise"
The electrons of an atom revolve around its nucleus in the same manner
as making Tawaf, in an anti-clockwise direction.
the moon revolves around the earth anti-clockwise.
The earth rotates around its own axis in an anti-clockwise direction
The planets of the Solar system revolve around the sun in an
anti-clockwise direction
The Sun along with its whole Solar system orbit in the galaxy in an
anti-clockwise direction.
All the galaxies orbit in the space in an anti-clockwise direction
Tawaf around the Ka'abais "Anticlockwise"
Truly Islam is from Allah
