Loving Every Aspect of the Mubaarak Life of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam)

Hazrat Shaikh Moulana Muhammad Zakariyya (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) once mentioned the following:

With regard to our character, conduct and mannerisms, we should make an effort to emulate the mubaarak sunnah of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) to the best of our ability. We should bear in mind that every aspect in the mubaarak life of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) is beautiful and beloved in the sight of Allah Ta‘ala. However, if we are unable to emulate any aspect of the mubaarak life of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) (e.g. his abstinence from the world and his exertion in ibaadah) due to our weakness, then we must still regard it as highly desirable and beloved. Apart from this, one should have the feeling of remorse within one’s heart of not being able to emulate that aspect of the mubaarak life of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam).
