Welcome
Dear friends,
Today, we are going to discuss an interesting and beautiful example of the relationship with grandparents. It is the relationship between Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the seal of the prophets with his beloved grandfather Abdul Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him). Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) did not meet his father, Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), as he was still a foetus in the womb of his beloved mother Amnah bint Wahab (may Allah be pleased with her) when he passed away. He was raised by Halima Al-Saadia (may Allah be pleased with her) who resided in Bani Saad tribe and cared for him. His beloved mother; Amnah (may Allah be pleased with her) wanted to visit Madinah to see the graves of several loved ones: her husband Abdullah and other relatives (may Allah have mercy upon them all). On her way back, she felt unwell passed away in Abwa. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) became lonely and an orphan at the age of six according to most narrations. After the death of his mother, he lived under the care of his grandfather, Abdul Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him). Abdul Muttalib also lost his father Hashim at a very young age so, there was a further sentiment in their relationship besides losing his son, Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) too. This great man looked after the Prophet (peace be upon him) with the best of care and did not eat unless he attended. He did not let anyone enter him whilst he was asleep; he did not leave the house except with him, he let him sit in a place no one else sat and many other examples. This presents the close relationship between them and shows how Abdul Mutallib (may Allah be pleased with him) was very fond and loved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Also, he saw the characteristics of Prophethood in his grandson. Abdul Muttallib (may Allah be pleased with him) used to take Prophet (peace be upon him) seven times around the Kaaba. He was afraid of the enemies and anyone who would cause him harm. Prophet (peace be upon him) was very upset when he passed away and was left under the care of his uncle, Abu Talib (may Allah be pleased with him). This presents the love grandparents give to their grandchildren, their tenderness and how they guide them to the right path. Next week, we will discuss the rights of grandparents and a summary of our project: Chemical bonding of different types of relationships discussed.
