With His Family and Children

With His Family and Children

Aisha, the wife of Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Allah's Messenger (pbuh) 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." (Narrated by al-Tirmathi). She also said "He would patch his garments and sole his sandals" She was once asked: "How was he with his family?", she responded: "He was in the service of his family until it was time for prayer, at which time he would go and pray" Anas narrated "I never saw anyone more merciful with children than the Messenger of Allah (pbuh)" (Narrated by Muslim) Abu Hurairah narrated that "The Messenger of Allah never denigrated any type of food; if he liked it he ate it, and if he disliked it he left it alone" (Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim)
