The Prophet (SAW) has taught us the best of deeds are those that done consistently, even if they are small.
Throughout one’s life, different forms of love are experienced at varying degrees, but one type of love that is a constant for the sincere believer is the love of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
How can you not love the Prophet of Allah ﷺ when he supplicated for you in every prayer? The Prophet ﷺ cared more for us than we care for ourselves; he loved us more than we love ourselves. The proof of that is that he constantly prayed for his Ummah and struggled for 23 years in order to convey the message of Allah, and yet oftentimes we fall short with regards to our own spiritual well-being.
We may claim to love Prophet Muhammad, to ourselves and others, but let us examine some surefire signs that prove the authenticity of our love.
1- Imitating and emulating him
2- Studying his Seerah
3- Studying what he conveyed
4- Sending salutations upon him
5-Loving what/whom he loved
6-Remembering him and wishing to be with him
7-Encouraging others to learn about and emulate him
Allah! Send your peace and blessings upon your Messenger, his family, and those who follow him until the Day of Resurrection.
O Allah! Grant us true and complete love for your Messenger and his Sunnah and allow us to be upon his path until the day we return to You.
O Allah! Grant us companionship with your Messenger in the highest levels of Paradise!
