PUNCTUALITY AND DAILY SCHEDULE:
He (PBUH) was punctual, active and energetic, and led an orderly life in the strict sense of the word. He was so devout and pious that not even for a single moment was he enchanted by any luxury or pleasure of this mortal world. In short, the Holy Prophet of Islam was a perfect model of all excellent virtues and sublime human qualities.
His day was divided into four periods:
1. A time for worship.
2. A time for his household (Ahlul-Bait) and wives, during which he behaved like any ordinary family man giving the finest example of social behavior.
3. A time for rest and contemplation.
4. A time for public affairs such as receiving Muslims, looking into their needs and requirements, answering their questions, teaching them the tenets of Islam and expounding to them the glorious verses of the Holy Qur’an.
SOME OF HIS WISE SAYINGS ON “TIME”:
1. Blessed be my people for their early rising up.
2. Too much sleep does away with both religion and the world.
3. O People, you have certain (special) characteristics, so get to (emphasize) them and you have an end, so get to (be prepared for) it..., a servant of Almighty God should take (make provisions) for himself from his self: from his world (life) for his hereafter, during his youth before his old age, and in life before death. By the One in whose hand is Muhammad’s soul after death there will be no blaming, and after this world there is nothing except Paradise or Hell.
All praise belongs to Almighty God, and may salutations and benedictions be upon the Messenger of Almighty.
