Knowledge Of The Unseen A caravan once traveling on desert plains suddenly found itself without water, and its passengers, young and old, male and female, all began to panic in this desperate state. Fortunately, they saw the Helper of Both Worlds, Muhammad Mustapha (sallAllahu alaihi wasallam), approaching them and immediately asked for his assistance. The Prophet consoled them by saying, “Behind that hill is an Abyssinian slave traveling by camel who has some water with him. Ask him to come here.” When the slave was later standing in front of Rasulullah (sallAllahu alaihi wasallam), the Prophet asked him for his water-bag, turned it upside-down and opened its mouth, saying, “Come. You may take as much as you wish.” Through this, the passengers were able to quench their thirst (and even fill their water-bags) from the endless merciful stream that continued to flow in front of them! After witnessing this extraordinary scene, the Abyssinian kissed the hand of the Prophet , accepted Islam, and noticed that his skin was now beaming (as if it was made of camphor)! When the servant returned home, he was asked by his owner, “Who are you?” The slave replied, “I’m your servant.” “You can’t be. My servant was not as bright as you.” The Abyssinian then said, “True, but I’ve come after having embraced Islam on the hands of the one who illuminated the entire universe!” He then explained the entire incident to him, and the slave’s master then too became a Muslim! – Mathnawi Sharif Lesson The Holy Prophet (sallAllahu alaihi wasallam) knew about the whereabouts of a certain person who was behind a certain mountain. Also knowing that he had a water bag. SubhanAllah! Also the Holy Prophet was the solver of all problems and Mercy-Personified. How mistaken then are those who say that he was nothing more than an ordinary man? #Inspiring Stories #Daily Islamic Stories #Daily emails #dailyislamicstories
