Humble

Preaching had made Prophet Muhammad SAW travelled to faraway
places with his companions. One day, when he was traveling, it was
getting late and darkness surrounded the prophet. He decided to take

some rest and spent the night.

Approaching dinner time Rasulullah SAW and his companions started
to feel hungry. Then, prepare a lamb to be cooked as their dinner.

One man said, “Very well I’ll slaughter the lamb.”

“Then, I will skin it.” Said the other.

Another companion added, “I will cook it.”

Unexpected, Prophet Muhammad SAW said, “I’ll go to find some fire
woods to cook it.”

All at once, all companions turned their face to Prophet Muhammad

SAW. They were also so surprised. They looked at each other until one
of them said to Prophet, “Dear Rasulullah, let us do the work and
prepare for dinner. You just take some rest and wait until the food is
ready.”

Prophet Muhammad SAW shook his head and smiled. Then, he said,

“For the sake of Allah, I know that you all mind good by not allowing
me to find the fire wood but I can’t just sit while you all do the working.
Allah doesn’t like those who think of them self as more special than the
others. You don’t have to worry, it’s alright for me to find some fire
woods.”
