Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

Indolence

Hadrat Abdullah bin Burnidah told that a man asked Hadrat Fadalah bin ‘Ubaid why it was that he saw him dishevelled and replied that ALLAH’s Messenger (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) had forbidden them to indulge much in luxury. He asked why was it that he saw him unshoed and he replied that ALLAH’s Messenger used to command them to go barefoot at times. [Abu Dawud]

Hadrat ‘Abdullah bin Masud (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated, “At the battle of Badr there was one camel to every three men of us. Abu Lubabab and Ali bin Abu Talib (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu) were the travelling companions of ALLAH’s Messenger (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam), and when his turn to dismount came they would offer to walk instead of him, but he would reply “You are not stronger than I am, and I am not more able dispense with the reward than you are.” [Sharah as – Sunnah]
