The Prophet Muhammad is seen as the most excellent role model for Muslims. His moral character was so wonderful that anyone who met him once would long to be with him again. His radiant face was lit with a broad smile and he was softly-spoken and eloquent. His company created a warm and loving atmosphere that pleased everyone. The Qur’an says: By God’s mercy, you were gentle with them. If you had been harsh and hardhearted they would have left you. (Al ‘Imran 3:159)
