The Ideal

Each person has an ideal in life. Each person imitates his ideal in all aspects of his life. The ideal of every Muslim in the way of dressing, eating, drinking and in his behaviour in general, is Nabi (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam). Thus, it is completely logical and normal that every Muslim imitates Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam) in his entire life. And he must not fear the critics of others. On the contrary, he must feel proud to have the honour to follow the greatest Insaan.

This Insaan is not just anyone. He is a Nabi and he is, in actual fact, the greatest of all the Nabis and infact he is dearest to Allah Ta'ala. And he is our beloved Nabi Hazrat Muhammad (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam).
