00:00:00 --> 00:00:03 
			Loving the Prophet ﷺ is a very foundational
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04 
			part of our faith.
00:00:05 --> 00:00:09 
			And one cannot really truly excel in their
00:00:09 --> 00:00:14 
			Islam without true love for the Prophet ﷺ.
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16 
			But the question is, how do we go
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17 
			about in developing that?
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19 
			Well, the first thing is that you can't
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22 
			really truly love someone unless you first know
00:00:22 --> 00:00:22 
			them.
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26 
			And so when you learn about them, you
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28 
			get to know them, then you start to
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31 
			respect and admire them, and that admiration and
00:00:31 --> 00:00:34 
			respect further develops into love.
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36 
			That's why it's said about the Prophet ﷺ,
00:00:36 --> 00:00:40 
			مَنْ رَآهُ بَدِيهَةً هَابَهُ that when somebody saw
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43 
			him from a distance, they were very taken
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45 
			aback by him, impressed by him.
00:00:46 --> 00:00:51 
			وَمَنْ خَالَتَهُ مَعْرِفَةً أَحَبَّهُ But once somebody got
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53 
			to know him, they fell in love with
00:00:53 --> 00:00:53 
			him.
00:00:53 --> 00:00:57 
			So let's commit ourselves to learning and getting
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59 
			to know the Prophet ﷺ.
00:01:00 --> 00:01:03 
			Listen to the seerah podcast, read a book
00:01:03 --> 00:01:06 
			on the seerah of the Prophet ﷺ, try
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08 
			to come and attend the seerah intensive, but
00:01:08 --> 00:01:11 
			learn about the Prophet ﷺ wherever it may
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12 
			be, however it may be.
00:01:12 --> 00:01:20 
			Number two is start incorporating some of the
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23 
			sunnah, the prophetic traditions and the Prophet ﷺ's
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25 
			practices into your daily life.
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28 
			Say salam to whoever you meet.
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31 
			Try to break bread with other people and
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33 
			share your food with other people.
00:01:34 --> 00:01:37 
			Start implementing these kinds of prophetic practices and
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40 
			sunnahs, and it'll help you start to appreciate
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42 
			him and love him.
00:01:43 --> 00:01:48 
			And thirdly is that send peace and blessings
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51 
			and salutations upon the Prophet ﷺ.
00:01:51 --> 00:01:54 
			الصلاة على النبي Allah tells us in the
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58 
			Qur'an إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِي
00:01:58 --> 00:02:02 
			يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ أَمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04 
			Indeed Allah and his angels all send peace
00:02:04 --> 00:02:06 
			and blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ.
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09 
			So you who believe, send peace and blessings
00:02:09 --> 00:02:09 
			upon him.
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12 
			Whenever we send peace and blessings upon the
00:02:12 --> 00:02:16 
			Prophet ﷺ, Allah showers us with a multitude
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17 
			of blessings.
00:02:17 --> 00:02:21 
			So incorporate that into your daily life of
00:02:21 --> 00:02:24 
			sending peace and blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ.
00:02:24 --> 00:02:27 
			اللهم صلي على محمد May Allah ﷻ grant
00:02:27 --> 00:02:31 
			us all the love for the Prophet ﷺ.
