Selawat upon Muhammad SAW..

         

          In the name of Allah, the most beneficent, the most merciful..

          Today is the day that again marks the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad SAW the person known as the last prophet of Islam, the supreme example of all people, a mercy to all mankind..
           In school when this day came it was a heavenly practice to do the selawat with all the pupils in every class I entered. I would begin with some stories about Muhammad SAW. The part they love most was how he looked like..
          Because it was a yearly activity it was like repeating the same facts but the stories never fail to attract them to know more about this last prophet..
          " He was a handsome man, fair skin, broad shoulders, neither tall nor short, very white sparkling teeth, very deep black eyes, long eyelashes, hair reached his shoulders, a bit huskiness in his voice.." 
          " Teacher nabi handsome kan? "
          "Yes very.. "

          " Why we have to selawat upon him? "
          " Because even Allah and His angels selawat upon Muhammad SAW..apa lagi kita? and for every selawat recited, 10 sins are forgiven, 10 good deeds are entered into our book of deeds.."

          "Bestnya teacher .."

          " Bukan tu saja. we will receive help of the prophet on the day of Judgement"..

          " Nabi dah wafat, macamana nak berhubung dengan dia? "

          " Senang saja, we send greetings of peace and say blessings and selawat upon Him.."
          Those are likely the questions asked by my pupils, sekolah rendah, begitu lah taraf soalannya..cikgunya pun tak berapa pandai...

           The best time is the selawat part, we will recite the selawat together, alangkah bahagianya berselawat bersama- sama ahli2 syurga..kanak-kanak yang belum dikira dosanya..what more can I ask?
           Many2 years been doing this, today I really miss this..alone in my room..berselawat la sorang2..Allah is great, maha mendengar dan maha mengetahui....

           I am only presenting my statement of thanks, appreciation and gratitude from a creature to my Creator.....
