So many followers today would still be saying that old women do not enter paradise, if it wasn’t spelled out for them that it was a joke!

Assalamu alaikum Sidi Saifuddin,

JazakAllah khayran for this post, it truly shows you the humanity of Nabi ‘Adham (salla Allah ‘alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam), as Sr. Baraka said.

I had a good laugh when I read this in “The Ideal Muslim” with regards to the sense of humor of Rasulullah (salla Allah ‘alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam) and his Sahaba (radi Allahu ‘anhum) from Imam Ahmad through Umm Salama (radi Allahu ‘anha):

“Abu Bakr [radi Allahu 'anhu] went to do business in Busra, and with him were Nu’ayman and Suwaybit ibn Harmalah [radi Allahu 'anhum], both of whom were present at Badr. Suwaybit was in charge of the food on the journey, and Nu’ayman said to him, “Feed me!” Suwaybit said, “Not until Abu Bakr comes.” Nu’ayman was a fun-loving man with a sense of humour, so he went to some people who had brought livestock with them, and said, “Will you buy a sturdy Arab slave from me?” They said, “Yes.” He said, “He has a big mouth, and he may tell you that he is a free man. If that means that you do not want to take him, then forget the matter, and do not cause trouble for me with him.” They said, “No problem, we will buy him.” So they bought him for ten young she-camels. Nu’ayman brought the animals back, and told the people: “There he is!” Suwaybit said: “I am a free man!” They said, “He has already told us about you,” and put a rope around his neck and led him away. Then Abu Bakr came, and was told what happened. He and his companions went and returned the animals and took Suwaybit back. They told the Prophet [salla Allahu 'alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam] what had happened, and he and his Sahabah would laugh about the story for a year afterwards.”‘

Ma’salama!

wa ‘alaikum as-salaam. Alhamdulillah brnaeem. I think its important to remember our Prophet (may Peace and Blessing be upon him) in this and better ways, inshaAllah. You know as well as I do the benefits of supplicating Allah to praise and send peace and blessings upon His most Beloved. It uplifts the heart and wakes us up irrespective of our religion.

This is something that should be shared for the benefit of everyone. I have seen with my own eyes, tears welling up, in the eyes of Christians and agnostics at the sight and sound of dhikrAllah and salawat (Holy Chanting in Remembrance of our Lord and His Messenger).

Thank you for this very nice post. I have always loved the story about the Prophet (saw) and the man who broke his fast. It so powerfully reflects the humanity and mercy of this most amazing man.

wa ‘alaikum as-salaam. Baraka! Alhamdulillah, its been such a long time, thank you for commenting.

“May we all learn to balance our seriousness with an appropriate laugh and smile to share with others, ameen.”

Amin.

I second Baraka. Also, some of these stories I had never heard/seen before, so they are very special. May we all learn to balance our seriousness with an appropriate laugh and smile to share with others, ameen.
