The Prophet (saas) was a compassionate man, full of love and under-
standing. He took an interest in the physical and spiritual problems of his
friends, relatives and all those around him, and took all appropriate mea-
sures to ensure their health, security and happiness. He took them under
his wing, and always bore in mind their lot in the hereafter by encouraging
them to remain godly. These features of the Prophet (saas), that are an ex-
ample for all of humanity, are revealed in verses:

Since the companions of the Prophet (saas) took him as a model, they
made the appropriate sacrrifices as mentioned in the Qur'an, behaving with
emphaty and compassion. One verse speaks of the sacrifices the faithful
made for the sake of one another:
