Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah.

As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu.

Praise be to Allaah, we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allaah from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allaah guides will never be led astray, and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray, no one can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allaah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

How the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) Behaved in his Home.

Since childhood we men see our mothers and sisters working in the kitchen , doing the daily routine household chores of our home.

So what did Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) do when he would spend time in his home. ?

Order everyone to clean the house ?? NO !

Lie down on the bed and leave as it is ?? NO !

Order nicest dishes to be prepared ?? NO !

Eat and Sleep ?? NO !

The Apostle of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)

occupied himself at his home like a common man.

As Aishah ( (Radiallahu Ta’ala Anhu)) relates,

he used to clean his clothes,

milk the sheep and himself do his odd jobs.

She also says that he would mend his clothes,

repair his shoes and do similar other works.

When asked how the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) occupied himself at home, she replied,

"He used to keep himself busy in household chores and went out when the time for prayer came."

In another report related on her authority, she is reported to have said:-

"The Prophet of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used to repair his shoes, mend his clothes and occupied himself at home even as any of you occupy yourself."

Aishah (Radiallahu Ta’ala Anhu) relates, "Allahs Messenger (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was very softhearted, the kindliest of all. He laughed often and smiled much."

Anas (Radiallahu Ta’ala Anhu) says that "he had not seen a man who was more clement and nice to his household members than the Apostle of Allah."

It is related on the authority of Aishah that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said:-

"The best of you is one who is most nice to his wife and children and I am the nicest among you."

Abu Huraira said that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) never expressed disapproval of any food, if he desired he ate it, and if he disliked he left it alone."
