The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ...
was a man of mercy and moral greatness...
even when faced with ridicule, insults, and slander.
Here are 5 remarkable instances from humanity’s most luminous [verlicht,lichtend] life ever:
L E T T H E A N G E L S R E S P O N D
Although the insults of Quraysh tightened his chest with pain...
he ﷺ never stooped to reciprocating in kind.
In fact, he inevitably took the higher road of not responding at all...
hopeful that this would one day penetrate their harsh hearts.
Once...
the Prophet ﷺ silently smiled when Abu Bakr r.a., his most noble Companion, refrained from responding to a person who was insulting him.
When Abu Bakr r.a. eventually spoke up, the Prophet ﷺ became angry and left.
He ﷺ later explained: 'An angel was with you, responding on your behalf. But when you said back to him some of what he said, a devil arrived, and it is not for me to sit with devils.'
