The Prophets Biography:The Way outofOrdeals
Khutbah Topic
His Eminence Sheikh SalehibnAbdullahibnHumaid May Allah protect him
delivered this Friday khutbahentitled The Prophets Biography:The Way out ofOrdeals.He talked about the biography of the Prophet May Allahs Salatand Peace be
upon him as a way of life which every Muslim should seek to understand and adhere to. He
also explained that the way out of the ordeals and crises engulfing the Ummah resides in
studying thisredolentbiography and using it as a source of inspiration. The Sheikh also
commended the large Islamic Coalition set up for cementing the ranks of the Ummahin the
face of the perils surrounding it from all directions as well as the terrorist groups, regardlessof their affiliation.
Part One
Praise be to Allah!Praise be to Allah Who has vanquishing power and
splendidwisdom! There is no deity except Him. To Him be praise in the Herein and the
Hereafter! I praise Him May He be extolled and show Him gratitude for His incessantblessings and His countless overt and covert graces! I bear witness that there is no deity
except Allah alone with no partner a testimony in proclamation of truth and certitude
without the least doubt oruncertainty and I bear witness that our Master and Prophet,
Muhammad, is the Servant and Messenger of Allah. He elevated high the torch of religionand united estranged hearts. May Allah send His unceasing Salat (Graces, Honours, and
Mercy), Peace and Blessing upon him, his family, immaculate and chaste progeny,Companions whose radiance is like dazzling stars, the tabieen(the contemporaries of the
Companions of the Prophet [May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him] after his death), and
all those who righteously follow in their footsteps as long as planets remain in orbit!
Now then!
O people! I exhort you, as well as myself, to adhere to taqwavis--vis Allah (i.e. fear
of disobeying His commands). Observe taqwaMay Allah have mercy on you! Surely, that
which you are promised will verily come to pass.1So, make up for your faults before it is
too late, perform a maximum of good deeds, and be in control of your own actions in privacy
before the abrupt advent of death the annihilator of pleasures, the disgracer of
proudpowerful people, and the invader of all avid egos. When deaths sharpdaggersget

tricks will be of any avail. May Allah, then, havemercyonthose who rush to use their time in
performing good deeds:
Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrectionshall you be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed awayfrom the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. Thelife of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceivingthing).[Al Imran: 185]
O Muslims!
A large number of Muslims feel that they have for long been bound to endure an
insupportable burden. Enemies deceitful double-dealing and hegemony have recently
escalated, for they have been trying hard to drive Muslims away from their religion. As aresult, weakness and humiliation have emerged in many areas, and Muslims have been
reduced to a flagrant ignorance of the truths inherent in their faith and Sharia. Accordingly,
they have lost their status and autonomy to feed themselves on the crumbs of other
civilisations. Muslims have ended up subjugated to nations which are no match to them
neither in number nor in any other respect.
O Muslims!
When ordeals multiply and calamities, afflictions, and startling crises follow
insuccession, people tend to grope for a way out. They seek shelter and refuge. If we admitthat this might be an arduous task for certain nations and countries, how can that apply to
Muslims who are shownthe Right Path and given the divine light and guidance? Their
pioneer, leader, and commendable exemplar in such a process is the guide, the bearer of good
tidings, and the radiant lamp of guidance, Muhammad May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon
him and his family. He is the one who is reported to have said: I left amongst you two
things; you will never go astray after my departure as long as you hold fast to them: theBook of Allah and my Sunnah.
In the hadith narrated by al-IrbadhibnSariyah May Allah be pleased with him he
reported that: The Messenger of Allah May Allahs Salat and Peace be upon him gave usa piece of advice which made our hearts palpitate with fear and moved us to tears. Oh,
Messenger of Allah, your advice sounds as though you were bidding us farewell; please
counsel us as to what to do,we said. The following is excerpted from what heMay Allahs
Salat and Peace be upon him said: Those who outlive me will witness great divergence.
So, do stick to my tradition and the tradition of the righteous and rightly-guided Caliphs
after me. Clingstubbornlytothem. Beware of innovations(in religion).
Yes indeed, dear brothers andsisters!

Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
Anyvirtuous life requires a pioneer and any successful journeyneeds a leader. Who on
earth, except the Messenger of Allah May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him can be a
pioneer of life and a leader of all humans, bearing in mind that he is the trustworthy pioneer
and the trustworthy messenger who conveyed theMessage? May Allahs noblest and most
perfect Salatand Peace be upon him! Notice how the resonance of the noble name of the
Prophet May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him in the air during the call to prayer fivetimes a day (including night time) is essentially meant to make minds and souls live in close
communion with him without any interruption, neither for one day or even a part of a day.
O servants of Allah!
Because of all the above-stated considerations, his Sunnahand biography have been
preserved. For, the lifeof this noble Prophet May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him
thisdistinguished biography of ourProphet Muhammad May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon
him which is characterised by perfection and comprehensiveness,is the ever-living source
and the fountain flowing with the values of Islamic lifestyle and the straight Islamic approachto life. In a nutshell, it is the way out (from current ordeals); it is the unmistakable straight
path.
It is the most authentic biography ever recorded in the history of the sent prophets andmessengers. The biography of Muhammad May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him is
therefore not sheer narrated history, a recounted story, or a chronicled event. It is rather a
precise record of the life of a man who was specially selected by Allah to convey His
Message. Allah did take special care of him and endowed him with inborn traits not shared
by anybody else:
...Allh knows best with whom to place His Message...[Al-Anam:124]
For further clarificationdear brothers andsisters consider the big difference betweenthe course of history, on the one hand, and the course of the Prophets biography, on the
other. Whereas history is founded on human reason, habits, conditions, and the nature of
populousness, the biography of Prophet Muhammad May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon
himis not governed by habits, nor is it subject to abstract reasoning. Rather, the Select
Prophet May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him is a human receiving divine revelation:
Nor does he speak of (his own) desire.It is only an Inspiration thatis inspired.[Al-Najm: 3-4]
Hence, many orientalists and occidentalists along with those (amongst us) who are
following theirapproach have committed an error whilestudyingthebiography and lifestyleof Muhammad May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him because they see it as
7/25/2019 64922-en
4/12
Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
sheerhuman history writing. They have failed to understand that sheer history is restricted to
the study of human nature and social life and that conversely the Prophets biography has its
own divine standards and prophethood features.For its source is divine revelation, its mystery
is Allahs selection, and its ultimate purpose is to improve human conditions.
...Allh knows best with whom to place His Message...[Al-Anam:124]
Or is it that they did not recognize their Messenger (MuhammadSAW) so they deny him?[Al-Muminoon: 69]
Allh chose Adam, Nh (Noah), the family of Ibrhim (Abraham)and the family of 'Imrn above the 'Alamn(mankind and jinns) (oftheir times).[Al Imran: 33]
Prophets are infallible. They are guiding and guided reformers. They teach people
peculiarities about religion and give themsome knowledgeabout the invisible world. They
have their miracles and special Allah-given aptitudes which are not shared with anybody else.
For this reason, any study of hisbiography which ignores or neglects its propheticcharacteristics and consequently approaches it as sheer chronicling of human history will
necessarily commiterrors in methodology, interpretation and results. Worse still, such studies
might fall into confusion, contradiction, ignorance, and misguidance.
As to those who intentionally adopt deviant approaches in order to foster scepticism,
twist truth, or spread falsehood, their deeds shall eventually be thwarted by Allah and theirplotting will be reversed against them. This is thank Allah noticeable nowadays:
Allh will protect you from mankind.[Al-Maedah: 67]
Truly! We will suffice you against the scoffers.[Al-Hijr: 95]
...they were plotting and Allh too was planning, and Allh is theBest of the planners... [Al-Anfal: 30]
O Muslims!
Allah May He be glorifiedcommanded mankind to follow His Messenger as an
exemplar, adhere to his Sunnah, and hold fast to his guidance and path. He Blessed be He
and raisedfar above said in a number of Quranic verses:
7/25/2019 64922-en
5/12
Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
Indeed in the Messenger of Allh (Muhammad SAW) you have agood example to follow for him who hopes in (the Meeting with)Allh and the Last Day and remembers Allh much.[Al-Ahzab: 21]
...And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad SAW) gives you,take it, and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it),...[Al-Hashr: 7]
Say (O Muhammad SAW to mankind): "If you (really) love Allhthen follow me (i.e. accept Islmic Monotheism, follow the Qur'nand the Sunnah), Allh will love you and forgive you of your sins.And Allh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."Say (O Muhammad SAW):"Obey Allh and the Messenger (Muhammad SAW)." But if they turnaway, then Allhdoes not like the disbelievers.[Al Imran: 31-32]
There are other similar verses in the Holy Quran.
Allah has preserved the biography of the Prophet May Allahs Salatand Peace be
upon him in an unprecedented way, unlikethat of the biographies of his predecessors andsuccessors. Allah predisposed, from among scholars in Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh), text
editing, and documentation, an elite whose performance dazzles human minds, delights
spirits, and prove (everything)withstrong evidence. Thus, the Prophets biography was
recorded in writing according to the principle of multiple rather than restricted narration
chains. It was doubly documented: both in the Holy Quran and in the Sunnah. It is not onlyrecorded in manuscripts but also engraved in human hearts. Its storage in scripted form has
been associated with feelings of veneration and reverence, combined with sentiments of
sincere love and admiration.
Its recording and documentation are manifest in the efforts exerted by successive
generations of great scholars who undertook the mission of documenting its narration chainsand respective events (namely, actions, speeches, and teachings), observing in all that
maximum precision and exactitude. Perhaps, the preservation of the Prophets biography is
implied in the assertion by Allah Sublime be Hethat His Holy Word will be immune from
corruption:
Verily We: It is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur'n)and surely, We will guard it (from corruption).[Al-Hijr: 9]
It has truly been preserved by trustworthy, scrupulous and meticulous people. ToAllah beour praise and gratitude!
O Muslims!

Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
The biography of our Prophet May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him is not the
sheer narration of hadith and the tracking of his lifeMay Allahs Salatand Peace be upon
him. In its all-embracing definition, hisbiography means his life, path, guidance, features, the
model of his religiosity and his call to Islam, in addition to whatever was authentically
narrated as his hadith in connection with faith, tawheed (monotheism), rulings, and moralstandards involving all walks of life. This is because the life and biography of the Prophet
May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him are the dynamic interpretation of the texts of
religion: the Holy Quran and the Sunnah.
In fact, hisbiography is not restricted only to the explanation of lexical items. It means
tawheedin opposition to shirk(polytheism), paganism and myths;it is unity in opposition to
disunity and dispersal; it is allegiance to the state in opposition to tribalism and kinsfolk
allegiance; it is legal provision and legislation in opposition to customs and traditions; it is a
nation in opposition to zealous partisanship and bigotry; it is reform and reconstruction in
opposition to sabotage and corruption; it is knowledge in opposition to ignorance andilliteracy.
It is asturdybiography of the Prophet which organises all the Muslimscourse of life.
Only through contemplating the Prophets biography and its collateral incidents can onediscern the delicate balance between rights and duties, justice and strength, compassion and
benevolence, consolation and equality,shoorah(i.e. mutual consultation) and administration,
and also between ornamenting the world and inhabiting theearth in such perfection,
beneficence, integration, cooperation, dutifulness, and altruism.
Cleanliness is half of the faith; prayer (salat) is light; charity is proof (in onesfavour); patience is brightness, and seeking knowledge is a (religious) duty. When Allah
ordains that someone shall be accorded good destiny, He will bestow upon him/her thefaculty of comprehending religion. In reality, what is the real meaning of fully understanding
religion but the comprehension of life, the rationale behind it and its ultimate purpose so as toproceed to the performance of righteous deeds?
SoufianeibnOyaynah May Allah bless his soul says: The Messenger of Allah
May Allahs Salat and Peace be upon him is the ultimate balance, indeed. He is the
criterion against whom matters are measured; that is his character, his way of life and his
guidance. If such things prove to be consonant therewith, then they are right, otherwise they
are false.
O Muslim brothers and sisters!

Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
As a role model, the biography of the Select Prophetprovides the human with identity,
rational mind, and spiritual essence. It nurtures within the believer dignity short of vanity,
high aspiration short of arrogance, confidence short of self-conceit and assurance short of
indifference.
It is a biography and a model that stimulates a sense of responsibility, integrity,
rectitude and insightful call to(the Message of) Allah.
Now thenMay Allah have mercy on you!
Imam al-Hafedhibn Al-Qayyim May Allah bless his soul says: The need for the
Messenger of Allah May Allahs Salat and Peace be upon him among people is by far the
most pressing of all needs. Achieving happiness and success in the Herein and the Hereafter,
being able to tell good from evil, and the attainment of Allahs satisfaction may only be
carried out through the messengers. In fact, benevolence in deeds, words and manners makebut part of their teachings and mission where their own words, deeds and manners constitute
the most preponderant balance in this regard. It is through adherence to their ways andmeans that one may tell the righteous from the aberrant. Since mans happiness in the Herein
and the Hereafter is so dependent on the guidance of the Prophet May Allahs Salat andPeace be upon him then it is incumbent upon those who wish deliverance and happiness for
themselves to know his guidance, biography and early life.
We seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan:
And thus We have sent to you (O Muhammad ( Ruh (aRevelation, and a Mercy) of Our Command. You knew not what isthe Book, nor what is Faith? But We have made it (this Qurn) alight wherewith We guide whosoever of Our slaves We will. And
verily, you (O Muhammad
) are indeed guiding(mankind) to the Straight Path (i.e. Allhs Religion of IslmicMonotheism). The Path of Allh to Whom belongs all that is in theheavens and all that is in the earth. Verily, all matters at the end goto Allh (for decision).[Al-Shuraa: 52-53]
May Allah make the Great Quran and the guidance of Prophet Muhammad May
Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him beneficial to me and to you! I say this, and I ask Allah
to forgive me and you, so ask Him for forgiveness as He is the Most Forgiving, the Most
Merciful.

Part Two
Praise be to Allah! Praise be to Allah, through Whose praise reward is attained! I
praise Him for His abundant blessings as He is the All-Generous, the All-Giving. I bear
witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah alone, with no partner; it is on
Him that I rely and it is from Him that I seek forgiveness. I also bear witness that our Master
and Prophet Muhammadis His Servant and Messenger; he came down with wisdom and the
ultimate truth. May Allahs profuseSalat, Peace and Blessing be upon him, his family,
Companions, the tabieen, and those who followed them in righteousness until the Day of
Judgement!
Now then, O Muslims!
It is, indeed, such a blessed Prophetic biography through which the Muslim Ummah
has been able to rise from wretchedness, to achieve glory after humiliation and knowledge
after ignorance. It has envisaged such an unmatched approach both in terms of originality and
elaboration regarding individual and common rights:
Indeed, there has come to you from Allh a light (ProphetMuhammad ) and a plain Book (this Qurn). WherewithAllh guides all those who seek His Good Pleasure to ways of peace,and He brings them out of darkness by His Will unto light andguides them to the Straight Way (Islmic Monotheism).[Al-Maedah:15-16]
The (Muslim) Ummah is the most benevolent among nations as it has followed the
most righteous approach to life. It has carried out jihad in the cause of Allah and has come
out victorious. It has prevailed but has always maintained its spirit of mercy and compassion.
It has ruled and maintained justice, it has governed with a disposition to openness. It has
blown up the springs of true knowledge after they had been depleted.
O Muslims!
This Ummahshall always remain one of benevolence until the Day of Judgement and
Allah willing Islam shall ever prevail despiteall thisgloom and all these tenebrouscalamities.
The commendable efforts of this blessed country and the outstanding initiatives it has
been able to set forth with the grace of Allah carry with them signs of benevolence and
felicity. Throughout its history, the blessed government of Saudi Arabia has always given
precedence to action over words. The records and achievements in this respect highlight the
7/25/2019 64922-en
9/12
Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
kingdoms importance and leading role in the shaping of Islamic reality as well as its active
participation in keeping up with the global changes and needs.
It is this blessed country which hosts the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the
Muslim World League, the Islamic Development Bank, and the Gulf Cooperation Council, in
addition to its efforts and long-time established and outstanding role in the field of relief and
development across the Muslim world. This comes as an extension to its leading role in theservice and sponsorship of the Two Holy Mosques as well as the safeguarding of Islamic
sanctities, with Allahs grace and help.
Praise be to Allah! It is this country which, for nearly two decades, has been able to
achieve remarkable success in its struggle and fight against terrorism through the
implementation of such exceptional pre-emptive measures that are set to wipe out potential
terroristic threats. It is for this reason that the call and endeavours it has just launched in this
regard have been widely endorsed by the Muslim world leaders.
O Muslims!
In this auspiciousSalmanian2reign, areign featuring Decisive Storms and banners of
hope, there comes yet another such storm, though of a different type. The current exemplary
and successful coalition is followed by a blessed one and at a large scale. This coalitionembodies an initiative that is the first of its kind in modern history and that rallies such a
large number of our blessed Muslim countries.
It is a blessed Islamic coalition that marks a turning point in the history of Muslim
countries, from their (customary) stance of mere reaction to one of generating and initiating
action as well as carrying out pre-emptive moves when deemed necessary. It is firmness,hope and a break away from the fetters of subordination. It is a coalition that has come to
enhance Islamic unity and to lay bare the ill intentions of those malevolent opportunisticpowers that seek to harm the supreme interests of the Muslim Ummah in order to carry out
their own selfish ends. It is a coalition that shall Allah willing put an end to those evilmachinations against the region and Muslim nations. It is a coalition for the glory of Allahs
religion, the Ummahs dignity, good living, stability, reform, and development.
This coalition reflects the ability and determination of Muslims to implement their
truthful Islamic approach in order to remedy their own problems and to defend their faith and
countries themselves. This blessed coalition is what all Muslims are looking forward to. It hastaken over the heart and soul of every one of them as they witness their Ummah, with all its
leaders and politicians, trying to act together towards ensuring its unity, achieving its ultimategoal, establishing its own path and proceeding forward with certainty.
2This is an eponymy referring to the current king: King Salman.
7/25/2019 64922-en
10/12
Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
With this coalition, the true and mighty outlook of Islam has just come into view
Allah willing. Along with this, the Muslim Ummahrises as a nation aspiring to live in peace
and harmony with itself and withthe other nations in the world.
It is a blessed coalition that is making its way towards achieving the long-awaited
Islamic unity while observing, at the same time and within the bounds of reason, mutualrespect for thedifferent Islamic denominations, and keeping away from interfering into the
affairs of other countries or stirring sedition and feuds.
It is a noble gathering geared towards achieving unity, ensuring decent living and
security, bringing under control the terroristsextremists and fanatics and towards
respectinginternational and bilateral conventions and agreements. All of this is motivated by
the drive to rally the Muslim Ummah in the face of all that would pose a threat to it and
imperil its interests.
O Muslims!
This blessed coalition comes to endorse the common stand of the Muslim countriesconcerning the denunciation, fight and containment of terrorism as well as the drainage of its
resources. This in itself confirms that Islam has nothing to do with terrorists and theiractions. The so-called daesh (or ISIS), which is the mother and the most modern form of
terrorism, is by no means a state. It is rather a group of gangs that have come together from
different parts of the world and that are sponsored by those who fund, arm and support them.
O brothers and sisters!
Though practiced by some individuals who belongto the Sunni community, this
terrorism is not strictly limited to them, for there are over thirty terrorist organizations fromother factions and denominations that are set to kill on the basis of identity, displace people,
tear apart countries, separate families and serve the evil purposes of what is known as thecreative chaos theory.
By the grace and will of Allah, this blessed coalition is set to provide protection from
the evil of these terrorist groups and organizations whatever their denominations, affiliations
and names. These terrorists seek to wreak havoc on earth, tear apart the Muslim Ummahand
distortthe imageofIslam.
This coalition will also reveal the truth about those who support, endorse and nurtureterrorism ideologically, politically and financially.
Now thenMay Allah protect you and sustain your glory!
7/25/2019 64922-en
11/12
Sheikh Dr SalehibnHumaid 07/03/1437 (18/12/2015)
May Allah bless these efforts, grant success to those initiating them, and unite
Muslims on the grounds of truth, guidance and the Sunnah!
It may be beneficial to seek through this blessed coalition the foundation of a supreme
commission of the UmmahsUlema (religious scholars), politicians and media people to serve
as a consultative body for all the Muslim countries and their institutions. The ultimatepurpose would be to firmly establish the provisions, fundamentals, precepts, moderation and
openness of Islam in the media, educational curricula and platforms in order to deal with
ideological, educational and informational issues. This ought to be implemented bearing inmind the effort, time, funds, planning, dedication, and patience required in this respect. It is
Allahs help we seek, and it is on Him we rely.And there is no strength or power except with
the support of Allah!
Therefore, do observe taqwaMay Allah have mercy on you and bear in mind that
Islam is there to stay thanks to the protection of Allah Almighty; it is there to stay thanks to
its might, charisma, and endurance; it is there to stay thanks to the efforts of people ofintegrity among Muslims, and notwithstanding all the wars, machinations, allegations, and
falsifications targeting it.
This is said, you are called upon to seek closeness to Allah Almighty and to yourProphet Muhammad May Allahs Salatand Peace be upon him by asking Allah Almighty
to send His Salat and Peace upon this chosen and beloved Prophet. By so doing, you will
have complied with the command of Allah. Allah Almighty and His angels will send their
Salat upon you; hence, your status will be raised, your bad deeds erased, your good ones
recorded, your supplications answered and you shall be rewarded for whatever has caused
you to suffer.
Sending yoursalaton the Chosen Prophet is an act of self-purification and a means toget you to paradise; it is an enlightening torch while on the Siraat3and a way to keep your
balance while crossing it. It is a means to receive praise from the dwellers of heaven andearth and to earn the mercy of Allah and the love of His Prophet.
O Allah! Send Your Salat, Peace and Blessing on Your Servant and Messenger, our
Prophet, Muhammad, the beloved and the Chosen One, on his virtuous and immaculate
family and on his wives, Mothers of the Believers! O Allah! Bepleasedwiththe four
CaliphsAbu Bakr, Omar, Othman, and Ali the Prophets Companions, the tabiinand thosewho followed them in righteousness until the Day of Judgement! O Allah! Bepleased withus,
along withthem, by YourClemency, Munificence, and Beneficence, O You, the MostGenerous!

TheSiraat
(an Arabic word
) is, in Islam, a narrow bridge over Hellfire which every person has to cross on theDay of Judgement to enter Paradise. Depending on ones beliefs and deeds, some cross it swiftly, others
slowly. Still others do not make it, and they end falling down into Hellfire.
