What You Will Learn

Muhammad is only a messenger — Ali ‘Imran 3:144, the verse Abu Bakr recited on the day he died.
Cupping and his names — “the best remedy is cupping” (ash-Shama’il 359), modern research, and the names Muhammad, Ahmad, al-Mahi, al-Hashir and al-‘Aqib (ash-Shama’il 365).
A simple livelihood — a month without a cooking fire (ash-Shama’il 371), “made to fear for the sake of Allah” (ash-Shama’il 376) and hunger shared with Abu Bakr and ‘Umar.
His age and passing — sixty-three years (ash-Shama’il 379), a face like a page of the Mushaf (ash-Shama’il 386), on ‘A’ishah’s chest, the agonies of death and his final counsels.
His inheritance — “we are not inherited from; what we leave is charity” (ash-Shama’il 403) and neither dinar nor dirham (ash-Shama’il 406): his legacy is knowledge.
Seeing him in a dream — “Satan cannot take my likeness” (ash-Shama’il 407), the dream of Yazid al-Farisi, “this knowledge is religion”, sending blessings, and a summary of all six books.

وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ إِلَّا رَسُولࣱ قَدۡ خَلَتۡ مِن قَبۡلِهِ ٱلرُّسُلُۚ أَفَإِيْن مَّاتَ أَوۡ قُتِلَ ٱنقَلَبۡتُمۡ عَلَىٰٓ أَعۡقَٰبِكُمۡۚ وَمَن يَنقَلِبۡ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيۡهِ فَلَن يَضُرَّ ٱللَّهَ شَيۡـࣰٔاۚ وَسَيَجۡزِي ٱللَّهُ ٱلشَّٰكِرِينَ

“Muhammad is not but a messenger. [Other] messengers have passed on before him. So if he was to die or be killed, would you turn back on your heels [to unbelief]? And he who turns back on his heels will never harm Allah at all; but Allah will reward the grateful.”

Surah Ali ‘Imran (3): 144 — Sahih International

🌿 Reflection The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has died, but his teaching lives on. His inheritance was not dinars and dirhams but knowledge — and every time we learn and practise the Sunnah, we take a share of it.
