Hence, (I noticed that) Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) would show me special attention and speak to me in a special way, until I began to think that I was the best of people (and most beloved to him). I therefore once asked, \u201cO Rasul of Allah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam)! Am I greater, or is Hazrat Abu Bakr (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) greater (in position)?\u201d Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) replied, \u201cHazrat Abu Bakr (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) is greater than you.\u201d I then enquired, \u201cO Rasul of Allah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam)! Am I greater, or is Hazrat Umar (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) greater?\u201d Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) answered, \u201cHazrat Umar (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) is greater than you.\u201d Thereafter, I asked, \u201cO Rasul of Allah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam)! Am I greater, or is Hazrat Uthmaan (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) greater?\u201d Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) responded, \u201cHazrat Uthmaan (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) is greater than you.\u201d Upon asking Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) these questions, I found that he was honest to me (i.e. in explaining to me that I was lower in position than these great Sahaabah), then I (felt sad for asking such questions and) wished that I had not asked him these questions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Commentary<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) would deal with each and every person in a special way, showing him love and attention. However, it was the general habit of Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) to give preference to those Sahaabah who held a higher position in deen without making others feel inferior. Nevertheless, at times, Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) showed deeper love and attention those who were lower in status in order to please their hearts and draw them closer to deen. He even showed special attention to the non-believers and the munaafiqeen (hypocrites) with the aim of showing them the beauty of Islam and drawing them towards Islam.<\/p>\n<p>In the beginning, due to Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) showing special attention to this Sahaabi, he began to feel that he was the best among the Sahaabah. However, to confirm his impression, he once came to Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) and enquired regarding his position in comparison to Hazrat Abu Bakr (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu), Hazrat Umar (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) and Hazrat Uthmaan (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu). Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) was honest to him and explained to him that his position was lower than the position of these Sahaabah.<\/p>\n<p>From this, we learn that just as Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) was a personification of love and kindness, he was also an embodiment of honesty and truthfulness, and hence he did not falsely flatter this Sahaabi, but was honest to him and explained his true position to him.<\/p>\n<p>After Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) explained to the Sahaabi that he was lower than these great Sahaabah in position, he regretted asking the question, as he realized that it was not correct for him to compare himself to these great Sahaabah.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for the Sahaabi posing the question in this sequence was that in the time of Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam), the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu \u2018anhum) regarded Hazrat Abu Bakr (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) as the best amongst them, followed by Hazrat Umar (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu) and then Hazrat Uthmaan (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu).<\/p>\n<p>In essence, from this Hadith, we understand that Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) made every person feel comfortable and happy in his mubaarak presence. It was on account of this sublime conduct and extraordinary love which he displayed to one and all that every person loved him the most and felt that he was special in his sight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) Dealing with Each Person in a Special Way \u0639\u0646 \u0639\u0645\u0631\u0648 \u0628\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0627\u0635 \u0642\u0627\u0644: \u0643\u0627\u0646 \u0631\u0633\u0648\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648\u0633\u0644\u0645 \u064a\u0642\u0628\u0644 \u0628\u0648\u062c\u0647\u0647 \u0648\u062d\u062f\u064a\u062b\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0623\u0634\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0642\u0648\u0645 \u064a\u062a\u0623\u0644\u0641\u0647\u0645 \u0628\u0630\u0644\u0643 \u0641\u0643\u0627\u0646 \u064a\u0642\u0628\u0644 \u0628\u0648\u062c\u0647\u0647 \u0648\u062d\u062f\u064a\u062b\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a \u062d\u062a\u0649 \u0638\u0646\u0646\u062a \u0623\u0646\u064a \u062e\u064a\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0642\u0648\u0645 \u0641\u0642\u0644\u062a: \u064a\u0627 \u0631\u0633\u0648\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0623\u0646\u0627 \u062e\u064a\u0631 \u0623\u0648 \u0623\u0628\u0648 \u0628\u0643\u0631 \u0641\u0642\u0627\u0644: \u0623\u0628\u0648 \u0628\u0643\u0631 \u0641\u0642\u0644\u062a: &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14262,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[395],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14261","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-shamaail"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14261","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14261"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14261\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14266,"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14261\/revisions\/14266"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/14262"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14261"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14261"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ihyaauddeen.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14261"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
