Hello friends
I hope all are doing well and fine. I am here with the continuation of my previous blog Marriage Life in Islam (part 1).In this blog let me share with you the lifestyle of Prophets and our ancestors in Islam. With no more delay I would like start with the name of my Lord.
In the name of Allah the Beneficent the most Merciful.
Habitual practices of Prophets Peace be upon them :
It has been narrated in the book named Jami al Tirmizi that there are four common habitual practices of all the Prophets peace be upon them
1.Modesty - All the Prophets were modest.
2.Scented - All the Prophets used perfume.
3.Siwaak - All the Prophets used to brush their teeth using a piece of branch made from twigs of Salvadore Persica tree.
4.Marriage - All the Prophets lived their married life.
Allah the Almighty has stated in the Holy Book of Islam (Chapter no. 13; verse no. 38)
"O my beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him), We indeed sent many Messengers before you and We gave them wives and children". ( 13 : 38 )
So from this it is clear that all the Messengers of Allah (peace be upon them) were sent to perform the sacred duty of calling towards the religion of Islam. They used to unite the creatures and people with Allah, but children and wife did not obstruct their way. It was as if it was established that escaping from married life is actually escaping from the payment of social rights.
Five Wills :
The companion Ali may Allah be pleased with him narrated that the Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him advised me to urge in five things.
1.Offer your prayer before the prayer time ends.
2.Make hurry in repenting before you die.
3.If you are indebted to someone pay it as soon as possible.
4.When you find the perfect match for your unmarried son or daughter then don't delay in getting them married.
5.When someone dies don't delay in his funeral.
Due to the state of being distant from Islam nowadays we get to see in many families there are girls who have remained unmarried for more than 10 to 15 years even after attaining to the age of marriage. But their parents say that we won't get them married far away. To be honest, according to Islam, they are actually heading towards hell.
Precautionary measures followed by ancestors in Islam :
Our ancestors used to be very careful in such things. I have read the lifestyle of our ancestors from the books that if there was any unmarried daughter in anyone's home and if she had passed years aften attaining the age of marriage and if her parents are not concerned in getting her married as early as possible then they don't even drink water from their well.
And if someone was indebted and if he doesn't intend to pay back his debts then our ancestors would never accept his feast because they feel that if he had so much money to arrange feast for people then why don't he pay off his debts instead.
I hope from this blog we can understand the importance of fulfilling our rights and duties at its due time without delay is essential one. To be continued in the upcoming blog. Please support me by following me and by liking commenting and sharing with your friends and family.
Until then bye bye…
