A Simple Guide to ISLAM
Muhammad – The Prophet of Islam
~ 44 ~
There should be:
Moments when one should commune with God,
Moments when one should be one’s own assessor,
Moments when one should be reflecting upon the
mysteries of creation,
And also moments for the acquisition of the necessities
of life.
Adopting a high code of ethics means practising what one
preaches; treating the weak with the same courtesy and deference
as one shows to the strong; setting the same standards for oneself
as one sets for others. From this point of view, the Prophet of
Islam stood at the pinnacle of human ethics, never abandoning the
lofty standards that he preached. And no testimony to this superior
moral life he lead is more reliable than that of his closest
companions.
