Home arrow Discover Islam arrow Muhammad, the Man of Permissiveness
The evil propaganda and the false accusations, that don't have even the less degree of any scientific faithfulness, disfigured the reality of Muhammad because it imagined him as a leader who opposes permissiveness and dialogue. Muhammad (may Allah's blessing be upon him) is the caller of permissiveness in all parts of life which is witnessed by all his behaviors. Look at this example: some Jews were praying for his death while they delude him that they were welcoming him. They were telling him (Alsaam alaikom) which means "death be upon you" instead of (Alsalam alaikom) which means "peace be upon you"…Only the letter "L" differs!!!! Although the prophet knew their bad intention, his forgiveness were very surprising for every equitable.  Imagine yourself in this situation, what will be your reaction? Then you will know the reaction of the Prophet… Imagine yourself a leader or a ruler being obeyed hearing a man asking Allah for your death with deceiving words that may be understood as good. May be you forgive him in his praying for your death but you can't forgive his deceit. Now dear reader; be just when you read the reaction made by Prophet Muhammad concerning this rousing scene and be a fair referee. One day the Prophet (PBUH) was sitting with his wife Aisha when some Jews passed by and pretended to say hi to him while they meant to insult him but his beloved wife understood their deceiving way of their words and replied with the same insulting words. Now the question is: did the Prophet get satisfied with this action? The answer is No, on the contrary he blamed his beloved wife and ordered her to be more lenient and gentle and never be violent or harsh. Aisha said: "The Jews were greeting the Prophet (Allah's blessing may be upon him) saying (Alsaam alikom) which means "death be upon you" so she replied: death and curse be upon you. But the Prophet (Allah's blessing may be upon him) said: wait Aisha, Allah loves the kindness in the whole situation".

Muhammad, the Man of Tolerance & Noble Forgiveness

Whoever browses the history of great men and leaders, during a victory after a lost battle, will find one common trait among them all, except for Prophets, which is revenge.

 

Muhammad the Messenger (PBUH) had given a superb example for the nobleness of the victorious. Despite being exiled from Makkah, his possessions being confiscated and being hurt badly by its people at the beginning of his prophecy, upon entering Makkah overwhelmingly victorious, his great personality & generosity would not give room for revenge. He had forgiven all those who have oppressed him while being able to exact severe vengeance on them.

He told them: "You can go for you are free"

 

In such a way Islam had raised Muhammad and his companions on such refined manners, free from the shackles of selfness & selfishness. For the Quran says: "Show forgiveness, enjoin what is good, and turn away from the foolish (i.e. don’t punish them)."
