Blessed twelve Dirhams of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H&H.P)

Imam Sadiq (A.S) reports: Ali ibn Abi-Talib (A.S) was tasked by the Holy Prophet to go to the market and purchase a shirt. He went to the market and purchased a shirt for twelve dirhams. The Holy Prophet asked, “How much did you pay for it?” “Twelve dirhams”, said Imam Ali (A.S). “I do not like it so much! I would like to have a less expensive one. Is the seller ready to take it back, if so, please return it?” Holy Prophet

The Prophet's First Marriage 

The Prophet's First Marriage

Youth is the period of the blooming of instincts and the emergence of one's sexual potencies. When youngsters, both male and female, are of mature age, they are drawn to the opposite sex, and a fire of passion starts flaming in their hearts that will not be extinguished unless they form a union of marriage. It is only in this way that they will find peace of mind.

Therefore, to make the proper use of such potentials and to

 Marriages of the Holy Prophet

When the Holy Prophet passed away, he left nine wives behind. This has become a main target of the Christian and Jewish writers. They say that plurality of marriage (polygamy) in itself points to avidity and to yielding to lust and desire, and the Prophet was not content with four wives which had been allowed to his Ummah but exceeded even that limit and married nine women.

It is necessary to point out that this is not such a simple matter to

Muhammad al-Amin" (Muhammad the Trustworthy) 

One year, the people of Makkah were rebuilding the holy Kabah. The holy Kabah is the first house of worship ever built on earth. and it was the Holy Prophet Ibrahim and his son Ismail (A.S) who built it. Now all the people of Makkah were working together to rebuild it. The wall of the Kabah reached the special place where the black stone called! al-Hajar al-Aswad' had to be placed. Al-Hajar al-'Aswad is a very respected part of the Kabah

Marriage of The Prophet 

Muhammad (p.b.u.h) grew up in his loving uncle's house, blossoming into a handsome youth of exceptionally good character, which marked him out from rest of the young Makkans. He soon began to assist Abu Talib in trade and commerce and once accompanied his uncle's trading caravan to Syria, ably revealing his talents and integrity. His honesty and reputation preceded him and sometime after his return to Makkah he took up a trading job with one of the wealthiest and

Sending Blessings on the Holy Prophet & his family (Salutation) 

“Allah and His Angels send blessings on the Prophet, O you who believe! Send your blessings on him, and solute him a thorough salutation”. (33:56) one of the best ways to know the personality of great men is to study their literature and listen to their words. As Imam Ali (A.S) states in Nahjul-Balagha: "Man is hidden behind his tongue” meaning by our words we introduce ourselves not with our certificates

From Marriage Up To Prophethood 

The most sensitive period of the life of a person begins when he (or she) comes of age. It is so because at this time the sexual instincts attain perfection the sensual self inspires passions in one's head every moment the storm of lust darkens the atmosphere of human intellect the foundation of the rule of material instincts becomes more firm and as a result of all this the lamp of wisdom becomes dim.

The Prophet's Marriage
The Messenger of Allah (p.b.u.h) married Lady Khadija at the age of twenty-five, while Khadija herself was forty years old. Yet some historians allege that she was twenty-five, and still others claim that she was twenty-eight years old. It is also said that she had two previous marriages before marrying the Prophet (p.b.u.h) some historians dispute this and indicate that she was a virgin when He (p.b.u.h) married her. This last claim is not common.

How Jesus Christ described the Glory of the Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H&H.P) 

We present here some traditions attributed to Prophet Jesus (A.S), in which that great prophet talks about the Chief of all Prophets, Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H&H.P). The traditions are naturally in the form of prophecies, since the Prophet Jesus lived before the time of our Prophet Muhammad. But they have value not merely as prophecies: they also provide one of the most beautiful tributes to the glory of

Lady Khadija On the Way to a Blessed Life 

When Safiya returned home and informed her brothers (the Prophet's uncles) of the authenticity of the news, happiness mixed with amazement and astonishment overtook them. Khadija who refused to marry the princes and lords of the Arabs, because she deemed them unworthy to marry, chose to be the wife of a poor man who owned nothing of the ephemeral things of this world, of even a foot of land!! This was the wonder of wonders!!
