you). Surah Baqarah 2:104
*11. Torment on disrespecting the Prophet ﷺ*
_Allah the almighty warns the believers not to equate the calling of his Beloved ﷺ with that of any other person._
(O Muslims!) Do not regard the calling of the Prophet amongst you like your calling of one another. Surah An-Noor 24:63
Note: When calling the Holy Prophet ﷺ is not like how we mutually call our people, then how can the Holy Personality of the Prophet ﷺ be like ours?
*12. Warning on raising voices above the voice of the Prophet ﷺ*
O believers! Do not raise your voice above the voice of the Prophet (ﷺ), and do not speak to him as loud as you are when you speak to one another (lest) all your actions should come to nothing (including your Imaan/faith), and you are not even aware (that your faith and pious deeds have been wrecked). Surah al-Hujuraat 47:02
*13. Allah teaches the protocol of addressing the Prophet ﷺ*
O believers! (While seeking the kind attention of the Holy Prophet ﷺ) do not say: Ra’ina (pay attention to us), rather submit (most humbly): unzurna (bless us with your benevolent gaze), and be all ears (when the Prophet ﷺ talks to you). Surah Baqarah 2:104
*14. Allah teaches the companions how to call the Prophet ﷺ when they visit him*
Verily those who call out to you from outside your house, most of them do not have the understanding (of your exalted status and incomparable status and polite manners of veneration that are due to you). And had they only been patient till you (ﷺ) had come out to them, it would have been better for them. Surah al-Hujuraat 49:4 & 5
*15. Allah the Almighty takes an oath for Prophet Muhammed’s ﷺ protection*
And Allah will (Himself) protect your (life) from the (hostile) people. Surah al-Maidah 5:67
*16. Almighty Allah Himself pleases Prophet Muhammed ﷺ out of love*
(O my beloved!) And soon your Lord shall bestow upon you (so much) that you will be well-pleased. Surah ad-Duha 93:5
*17. Allah changed the Qiblah (direction for prayer) for his beloved ﷺ*
(O beloved!) We have been watching your radiant face turning frequently towards heaven. So We will indeed make you turn towards that Qiblah with which you feel pleased. Surah Baqarah 2:144
*18. Allah the Almighty severely dislikes hurting His Beloved ﷺ even to a smallest extent*
Surely those who offend Allah and His Prophet (ﷺ) Allah curses them in the world and in the Hereafter and He has prepared for them a disgraceful torment. Surah al-Ahzaab 33:57
Note: According to Tafseer Ibn Katheer, Tafseer Mazhari and Tafseer Jalalain, here the meaning of “those who offend Allah” means “those who offend His Prophet ﷺ” itself, as by no means one can offend Allah.
*19. Allah teaches etiquette of dealing with Prophet Muhammed ﷺ personally*
O believers! Do not enter the houses of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) unless permission is granted to you. Nor wait for the cooking of the meal. But when you are invited, then enter (during that specific time). Then, when you have eaten the meal (get up from there and) disperse without delay, and do not linger on in eagerness for a talk. Surely, your (sitting for so long) brings discomfort to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he feels reluctant to (ask) you (to leave), but Allah does not hesitate in (saying) the truth. Surah al-Ahzaab 33:53
become true believers until they make you a judge in every dispute that arises amongst them, and thereafter they do not feel any resentment in their hearts against the judgement that you make, and submit (to your decision) gladly, with total submission. Surah Nisa 4:65
*20. Those who pledge allegiance on the Prophet’s ﷺ hands, Allah calls them His own hands (blessings)*
(O beloved!) Indeed those who pledge allegiance to you in fact pledge allegiance to Allah alone. Allah’s hand (Allah’s pleasure) is over their hand (in the form of your hand). Then whoever breaks his pledge breaks it only to his own harm. But he who fulfils what he has promised to Allah, He will bless him with immense reward. Surah Al Fat’h 48:10
In another verse, Allah says: “(O Beloved!) When you smote (pebbles at them because they attacked you), it was not you who smote them, but it was Allah who did so.” Surah al-Anfaal 8:17
*21. Obedience to Allah and His Beloved ﷺ is equal*
22. There are 38 verses in the Holy Quran which state (Ati ur Rasool) meaning follow the Messenger ﷺ. Out of them, 20 mention the name of both Allah and the Messenger ﷺ. Astonishingly, there is not even a single verse in the entire Quran which only states “obey Allah” without the name of Rasool ﷺ. There’s no escape from the saying that Allah’s obedience alone is sufficient. In fact, the Holy Prophet’s ﷺ obedience is Allah’s obedience. And in the below reference, Allah says so clearly:
23. Whoever obeys the Messenger (ﷺ) obeys Allah indeed. Surah al-Nisa 4:80
*24. Allah the Exalted orders to make the Prophet ﷺ the judge in every dispute*
So (O Beloved), by your Lord, they cannot become true believers until they make you a judge in every dispute that arises amongst them, and thereafter they do not feel any resentment in their hearts against the judgement that you make, and submit (to your decision) gladly, with total submission. Surah Nisa 4:65
*25. Allah’s order to people to come to the Prophet ﷺ if they’ve wronged themselves*
And (O Beloved), had they, having wronged their souls, had come to you to seek the forgiveness of Allah, and the Messenger (ﷺ) had also asked for their forgiveness, then (owing to this mediation of the Prophet ﷺ), they would have certainly found Allah to be the Most Relenting, Ever Merciful. Surah Nisa 4:64
*26. Pleasing Allah and His Messenger ﷺ is mandatory*
O Muslims! They (the hypocrites) swear by Allah in your presence to keep you pleased, whereas Allah along with His Messenger (both) has a greater right that they should be pleased. If they are the believers (they should have known this fact and should have pleased the Messenger ﷺ. Allah is pleased only if the Messenger (ﷺ) is pleased because their pleasure is but the same). Surah Tawbah 9:62
*27. Disobeying both Allah and the Messenger ﷺ leads too hell*
But whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ) and exceeds his limits, He will admit him to Hell wherein he shall dwell forever, and there is a humiliating torment for him. Surah Nisa 4:14
*28. Allah warns about exceeding His Beloved ﷺ in any act*
O believers! Do not step ahead of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ and keep fearing Allah (lest you may commit any discourtesy by displeasing the Messenger of Allah ﷺ). Surely, Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. Surah Hujurat 49:01
*29. Hypocrites are those who rush towards Allah but hesitate to come towards the Prophet ﷺ*
And when they are asked to come to what Allah has revealed (the Quran) and to the Messenger (ﷺ), you will see that the hypocrites turn away from (coming towards) you. Surah Nisa 4:61
*30. When Allah orders you to come, do so towards both Allah and His Messenger ﷺ*
O Believers! When the Messenger (ﷺ) calls you for some assignment that brings you (eternal) life, present yourselves (immediately) responding to (both) Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ) with submissiveness and obedience. Surah Anfaal 8:24
*31. Allah orders Muslims to follow Prophet Muhammed ﷺ to attain Allah’s closeness*
(O Beloved!) Say: “If you love Allah, follow me. Allah will then take you as (His) beloved, and will forgive your sins for you, and Allah is the Most Forgiving, Ever Merciful.” Surah Aal-Imran 3:31
*32. The most perfect personality is Prophet Muhammed’s ﷺ*
In fact, in (the sacred personality of) Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) there is for you a most perfect and beautiful model (of life & character) for every such person that expects and aspires to (meet) Allah and (believes in) the Last Day, and remembers Allah amply. Surah Ahzaab 33:21
*33. Allah’s torment does not come where Prophet Muhammed ﷺ is present*
And, (the reality is that) it is not Allah’s Glory to torment them while you (O Prophet ﷺ) are also (present) among them... Surah Anfaal 8:33
*34. Allah intended to purify the Household (Ahl ul Bayt) of the Noble Prophet ﷺ*
Allah only intends to remove all the impurity of sin from you, O People of the House (of the Prophet ﷺ) and make you absolutely pure and clean by blessing you with (perfect) purity and wholesomeness. Surah Ahzab 33:33
*35. Prophet Muhammed ﷺ is Allah’s Mercy for the whole creation*
And (O Prophet ﷺ) We have not sent you but as a mercy for the whole worlds. Surah Ambiya 21:107
*36. Allah expects us to love Prophet Muhammed ﷺ more than anybody and anything else in this world*
(O esteemed Messenger ﷺ) Say: “If your fathers (and forefathers) and your sons (and daughters) and your brothers (and sisters) and your wives and your kith and kin, and the riches that you have earned, and the trade and business that you fear may decline, and the homes you are fond of are dearer to you than Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ), and the struggle in his cause, then wait until Allah brings His command (of torment). And Allah does not guide the disobedient. Surah Tawbah 9:24
