Islam's growth is inextricably related to the Prophet Muhammad, who Muslims consider to be the last of several prophets, including Jesus and Moses. Muslims everywhere aspire to emulate Muhammad because he was the chosen one to receive and convey the word of God through the divine revelations. The most important scriptures in Islam, after the holy Qur'an, are the accounts of the Prophet's life and sayings (hadith) and sunna. Early Life: In 570 A.D., Muhammad was born into the Quraish, the most influential clan in Mecca. Every person looks up to the Prophet Muhammad, who is credited with bringing Islam to every corner of the globe.

We can recognize the speciality in life of Prophet Muhammad by a short life history…

One day a poor man brought a bunch of grapes to the 
Holy Prophet Muhammad as a gift. He was very excited 
to be able to bring a gift for the Prophet (s). He placed the 
grapes beside the Prophet (s) and said, ‘O Prophet of 
Allah, please accept this small gift from me’. He was a 
poor man who could not afford more. His face beamed 
with happiness as he offered his small gift. It was evident 
that he loved the Prophet a lot.
The Prophet thanked him graciously. As the man looked at him expectantly, the Prophet ate one 
grape. Then he ate another one. Slowly the Prophet finished the whole bunch of grapes by 
himself. He did not offer grapes to anyone present. The poor man who brought those grapes was 
very pleased and left. 
The companions of the Prophet (s) who were around him were surprised. Usually the Prophet (s) 
shared whatever he got with them. He would offer them whatever he was given and they would 
eat it together. Usually he would start first, out of respect to the person who had given him the 
gift. But he would always offer it to others. This time had been different. Without offering it to 
anyone, the Prophet (s) finished the bunch of grapes by himself.
One of the companions asked respectfully, "O Prophet of Allah! How come you ate all the 
grapes by yourself and did not offer to any one of us 
present?” 
The holy Prophet (s) smiled and said, "I ate all the 
grapes by myself because the grapes were sour. If I 
would have offered you, you might have made funny 
faces and shown your distaste of the grapes. That 
would have hurt the feelings of that poor man. I 
thought to myself that it's better that I eat all of them 
cheerfully and please the poor man. I did not want to 
hurt the feelings of that poor man."
