Was The Prophet Salla Allahu Alayhi Wassalam Romantic?

Was The Prophet Salla Allahu Alayhi Wassalam Romantic?

We all want to have a fun time every now and then. Being excessive in it isn’t always the best thing to do, but permissible ways of fun is encouraged in Islaam.

U prufeta (A pace sia nantu à ellu) always kept his smile with his wives and he used to laugh and please them to make them laugh as well. With all the troubles around him, he used to take his wife Aisha, to the desert and say, “Aisha, lets race!” And she used to race him and win. Allora, he kept on feeding her meat for a whole week, so she would unassumingly gain weight, until he took her again to the desert and said, “Aisha, let’s race!” At that time, he won and said to her, “This time I won!".
(Recorded in Ahmad & Abu Dawood)
We also know that the Messenger of Allaah (a pace sia nantu à ellu) disse:

Everything other than remembering Allah is (considered) wasteful play except four: a man humoring his wife, a man training his horse, a man walking between targets (learning archery), and man learning swimming,”
[Narrated by An-Nasaa’i and authenticated by Al-Albaani (Sahih Al-Jami’ 4534]

Once during a journey, Safiyyah – the wife of Allaah’s Messenger (may Allaah be pleased with her) was crying because she had be made to ride a slow camel. U prufeta (a pace sia nantu à ellu) didn’t tell her she was being unreasonable. Invece, he wiped her tears, comforted her, and even tried to find her another camel for her.

U prufeta hà dettu: ‘Consult with women. Infatti, you have some rights over your women and they have some rights over you. It is their right on you that you provide for their food and clothing generously, and your right on them is that they do not let anyone whom you dislike in the house, walking upon your floor. (Sunan Ibn Mâjah, Sunan At-Tirmidhî)

Anas ibn Malik narrates, “I saw the Prophet (salla Allahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), making for her (Safiya) a kind of cushion with his cloak behind him (on his camel). He then sat beside his camel and put his knee for Safiya to put her foot on, in order to ride (on the camel).” [Sahih Al-Bukhari]

`Âishah said: “Allah’s Messenger (a pace sia nantu à ellu) never once struck a servant of his nor a woman, nor did he strike anyone with his hand.” [Sahîh Muslim (2328), Sunan Abî Dâwûd (4786), Sunan Ibn Mâjah (1984), as quoted from Sunan Ibn Mâjah]

Hadith – Mishkat, Narrated Aisha [Transmitted by Tirmidhi]

Allah’s Messenger (a pace sia nantu à ellu) used to patch his sandals, sew his garment and conduct himself at home as anyone of you does in his house. He was a human being, searching his garment for lice, milking his sheep, and doing his own chores.

Hadith – Sahih al-Bukhari 8.65, Narrated Al Aswad

I asked ‘Aisha what did the Prophet (a pace sia nantu à ellu) use to do at home. She replied, “He used to keep himself busy serving his family and when it was time for the prayer, he would get up for prayer.”

Sahih Al Bukhari [the Book on Wedlock / Nikah] –

Volume 7, Libru 62, numeru 117:

Narrated ‘Aisha:

Eleven women sat (at a place) and promised and contracted that they would not conceal anything of the news of their husbands. The first one said, “My husband is like the meat of a lean weak camel which is kept on the top of a mountain which is neither easy to climb, nor is the meat fat, so that one might put up with the trouble of fetching it.” The second one said, “I shall not relate my husband’s news, for I fear that I may not be able to finish his story, for if I describe him, I will mention all his defects and bad traits.” The third one said, “My husband is a tall man; if I describe him (and he hears of that) he will divorce me, and if I keep quiet, he will neither divorce me nor treat me as a wife.” The fourth one said, “My husband is a moderate person like the night of Tihama which is neither hot nor cold. I am neither afraid of him, nor am I discontented with him.” The fifth one said, “My husband, when entering (the house) is a leopard, and when going out, is a lion. He does not ask about whatever is in the house.” The sixth one said, “If my husband eats. he eats too much (leaving the dishes empty), and if he drinks he leaves nothing, and if he sleeps he sleeps alone (away from me) covered in garments and does not stretch his hands here and there so as to know how I fare (get along).” The seventh one said, “My husband is a wrong-doer or weak and foolish. All the defects are present in him. He may injure your head or your body or may do both.” The eighth one said, “My husband is soft to touch like a rabbit and smells like a Zarnab (a kind of good smelling grass).” The ninth one said, “My husband is a tall generous man wearing a long strap for carrying his sword. His ashes are abundant and his house is near to the people who would easily consult him.” The tenth one said, “My husband is Malik, and what is Malik? Malik is greater than whatever I say about him. (He is beyond and above all praises which can come to my mind). Most of his camels are kept at home (ready to be slaughtered for the guests) and only a few are taken to the pastures. When the camels hear the sound of the lute (or the tambourine) they realize that they are going to be slaughtered for the guests.”

The eleventh one said, “My husband is Abu Zar and what is Abu Zar (i.e., what should I say about him)? He has given me many ornaments and my ears are heavily loaded with them and my arms have become fat (i.e., I have become fat). And he has pleased me, and I have become so happy that I feel proud of myself. He found me with my family who were mere owners of sheep and living in poverty, and brought me to a respected family having horses and camels and threshing and purifying grain . Whatever I say, he does not rebuke or insult me. When I sleep, I sleep till late in the morning, and when I drink water (or milk), I drink my fill. The mother of Abu Zar and what may one say in praise of the mother of Abu Zar? Her saddle bags were always full of provision and her house was spacious. As for the son of Abu Zar, what may one say of the son of Abu Zar? His bed is as narrow as an unsheathed sword and an arm of a kid (of four months) satisfies his hunger. As for the daughter of Abu Zar, she is obedient to her father and to her mother. She has a fat well-built body and that arouses the jealousy of her husband’s otar? She does not uncover our secrets but keeps them, and does not waste our provisions and does not leave the rubbish scattered everywhere in our house.” The eleventh lady added, “One day it so happened that Abu Zar went out at the time when the milk was being milked from the animals, and he saw a woman who had two sons like two leopards playing with her two breasts. (On seeing her) he divorced me and married her. Thereafter I married a noble man who used to ride a fast tireless horse and keep a spear in his hand. He gave me many things, and also a pair of every kind of livestock and said, ‘Eat (of this), O Um Zar, and give provision to your relatives.” She added, “Eppuru, all those things which my second husband gave me could not fill the smallest utensil of Abu Zar’s.”

‘Aisha then said: Allah’s Apostle said to me, “I am to you as Abu Zar was to his wife Um Zar.”

If you see the etiquette of Allaah’s Messenger, you see that he patiently listened to the whole story without saying anything until Aa’isha finished.

Yet he was the Messenger of God for the whole of humanity, so if anyones doing anything for the sake of Islaam, then know that even the Prophet of Allaah – the greatest man to ever live spent time with his wives. We should take an example from that.

Do you also see how after listening to what she said, he ended it off in a Romantic way? Showing interest to what she said, and then linking it back to her to make her feel cared for, and understood.

That’s exactly the way you want to follow.

It’s reported authentically from Bukhari & musulmani – On the authority of Abdullah Ibn `Umar (ch'Allah sia contentu di ellu) that the Messenger of Allah (a pace sia nantu à ellu) disse:

“Da veru, some eloquence (can be so beautiful); it constitutes sorcery.

There’s some eloquence in talking which is soo beautiful that it has a similar effect to magic on people. Remember that you can talk to your spouse in a way which will attract them, but just don’t do it in public because you might get unwanted attention.

You could call them by a personal nickname you choose for them, we know that the God’s Messenger would call his wife Aa’isha by the nickname ‘Aa’ish’ just to joke with her. Don’t call them something they dislike though, because that will just make the relationship go bad.

Aa’isha (ch'Allah sia piacè cun ella) narrates in Sahih Al Bukhari V2/B 15/no.70]:

It was the day of ‘Id, and the Black people were playing with shields and spears; so either I requested the Prophet (a pace sia nantu à ellu) or he asked me whether I would like to see the display. I replied in the affirmative. Then the Prophet (a pace sia nantu à ellu) made me stand behind him and my cheek was touching his cheek and he was saying, “Carry on! O Bani Arfida,” till I got tired.

U prufeta (a pace sia nantu à ellu) asked me, “Are you satisfied (Is that sufficient for you)?” I replied in the affirmative and he told me to leave.

That’s cute; they showed each other that they weren’t embarrassed to be in love with each other… it shows your acceptance towards each other too.

There are many other narrations which state that Allaah’s Messenger (a pace sia nantu à ellu) would eat with his wives, both would eat from the same and drink from the same glass etc. That’s how it should be – it unites you together physically, aswell as the hearts.

Once the prophet (salla Allahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) was sitting in a room with Aisha and fixing his shoes. It was very warm, and Aisha looked to his blessed forehead and noticed that there were beads of sweat on it. She became overwhelmed by the majesty of that sight was staring at him long enough for him to notice.

Ùn pudete micca fà questu solu, “What’s the matter?” She replied, “If Abu Bukair Al-Huthali, the poet, saw you, he would know that his poem was written for you.”

U prufeta (sallaAllahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) asked, “What did he say?” She replied, “Abu Bukair said that if you looked to the majesty of the moon, it twinkles and lights up the world for everybody to see.”

So the Prophet (salla Allahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) got up, walked to Aisha, kissed her between the eyes, and said, “Wallahi ya Aisha, you are like that to me and more.”

[This was narrated in Dala’el Al-Nubuwa for Imam Abu Nu’aim with isnad including Imam Bukhari and Imam Ibn Khuzaina.]

…Abu Darda’ reported that the Prophet of Allah, upon him be peace, disse, “Nothing is weightier on the Scale of Deeds than one’s good manners.” [Sahih Al Bukhari – Book of Manners #271]

“The Prophet (pace è benedizioni di Allah sia nantu à ellu) and I [Aisha] used to do ghusl [have a bath] together from one vessel between me and him; ci vuleriamu à turnà immersi e mani in u vasu è ellu pigliaria più chè mè finu à dì, 'Lasciate un pocu per mè, leave some for me.’” She said, è eranu tramindui junub (in un statu di janaabah).

Narratu da al-Bukhaari è Muslim.
