14 o LITTLE BRAVE oNE! PEACE T he Holy Prophet sa was being raised in his nurse H al i mah’s house. When he was five years old, he began going out to graze livestock (goats) with some other children of the village. He would leave in the morning and come back with the goats in the evening. This would be the daily routine. One day the children were grazing goats as usual in the woods when, suddenly, bandits attacked them. The children were frightened by their terrifying faces and flashing swords and ran towards the village much afraid. There was only one child who was not at all frightened, did not try to run away and stood in his place quietly. This very child was named Muhammad sa.
