“Muhammad the prophet of the Muslims, was called the trustworthy right from his early life. That was by all his honored people of his town, and that was for his good behavior and ethics. Whatsoever, Muhammad is higher than anyone could talk about him. If you don’t know him and read about his history, you cant know him. That history made Muhammad in the front row of prophets and thinkers of the world. Some of his merits that should be highlighted are respect and tenderness by which he would treat his followers, even the modest ones of them. Modesty, humanity, mercy, self-denial and tolerance are cherished in his spirit to gain the love of everybody around him.”
