Our Beloved Master - His Early Life — Page 30
•oUR BELoVED MASTER• 30 Finally, one man gathered some courage and asked, “O honourable chief ! What is this name that you have given to your grandson? You should have given him a good name after some idol. ” The chief of Quraish smiled and said, “It is my greatest desire that this dear son of mine become worthy of the whole world’s admiration and possesses every kind of goodness and excellence in him, and every person praises and glorifies him. For this reason I have named him Muhammad sa and his mother too has had a dream which suggests that he will become a great man when he grows up. ” Such was the birth of our Beloved Master sa. No human being in the world would have ever had his desire and wish fulfilled in such an excellent manner as was the wish of ‘Abdul-Mu tt alib! Thus, you can see for yourself that to this day, no person of any status has ever been praised to the extent of the Holy Prophet sa. In the fourteen hundred years that have passed since him, not a single day has passed that he has not been praised in some part of the world. God on His Throne, angels in the heavens and human beings on the earth praise him on a continuous basis. It is obligatory on every Muslim to recite the Dur u d , in praise of his Master sa in the five daily prayers.
