True Muslims whose soul is filled with generosity will naturally be hospitable, welcoming their guest warmly and cheerfully hastening to honor him, acting upon the Islamic attitude which is deeply rooted in his heart and which is based on belief in Allah (SWT) and the last Day. The Prophet (SAW) said: “Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him honor his guest.” (Bukhari and Muslim)

The Prophet’s journey began when Jibril (AS) came to him, split open his chest, and washed it with zam-zam water. Jibril (AS) then took a basin that was filled with wisdom and faith, and poured it into the Prophet’s chest; and then, finally, Jibril (AS) closed his chest, held him by his hand, and took him on his night journey.

The Prophet (SAW) began his mission by secretly preaching to those he trusted the most; it was during this stage of his mission that the most eminent of Muslims – those known as “As-Sabiqunal Awwalun (the ones that preceded others to the faith, the ones who were first to embrace Islam) – embraced Islam. The first person to embrace Islam was Khadijah (RA). The members of the Prophet’s household had become Muslims, the next to accept the Prophet’s invitation to Islam was Abu Bakr (RA). Then people entered into the Faith, one after another until Islam spread throughout Makkah; even every member that became Muslim.
