The Light of the Prophet ﷺand His Special Distinction

Abu Darda’ said: “When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) left us, there was not a bird that flies in the sky but that he had given us some knowledge about it.” Recorded by Tabarani in his Mu’jam al-Kabir (2:155 #1647), Imam Ahmad (#20399),

This indicates his extensive knowledge of the Unseen given to him by Allah (Most High). He also said, “Truly, I do not know anything except what my Lord told me.” See: Ibn Hajar’s Fath al-Bari (13:364)

Qadi ‘Iyad wrote a chapter in his Shifa’ called “The Prophet’s knowledge of the Unseen and future events.” In the beginning of it he wrote: “The hadiths on this subject are like a vast ocean whose depths cannot be plumbed and which does not cease to overflow. This is one aspect of his miracles that is definitely known. We have many hadiths which have reached us by multiple paths of transmission (tawatur) regarding his familiarity with the Unseen.”

Allah says about the Prophet ﷺ, “And he is not stingy of (his knowledge of) the Unseen” (Q81/24).

“O people! I am your Imam. Do not precede me in ruku’ and sujud because in addition to seeing what is before me, I also see what is behind me.” Recorded by Bukhari (#700), Muslim (#644-45),

“My knowledge after my passing is (the same) as my knowledge during my life.”

Ibn Mandah in his Fawa’id (p. 82 #56), Daylami (see Kanz al-‘Ummal #2242). Suyuti in his Khasa’is (2:490)

“Truly I see that which you do not see and hear that which you do not hear…indeed, there is not a space, four fingers wide, except that there is an angel in it bowing its head in prostration to Allah.” Recorded by Tirmidhi (Kitab az-Zuhd, #2234), Ibn Majah (#4180)

“Truly my eyes sleep but my heart does not sleep.” Bukhari (#1079, 1874), Muslim (#1219),

 “O people! Verily I am not like you. Indeed, I spend the night in the (Divine) Presence of my Lord, and it is He Who feeds me and gives me drink.” Bukhari (#1827-28), Muslim (#1844, 1850), Imam Malik (#590-91)

While the Prophet ﷺ and some of his companions were on an expedition, a Beduin came and asked for a miracle. The Prophet ﷺ pointed at a certain tree and said to the Beduin, “Tell that tree that Allah’s Messenger summons you.” The tree swayed and brought itself out, and came to the presence of the Prophet ﷺ, saying (in an audible voice), “Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah!” The Beduin said, “Now, let it return to its place.” The Prophet ﷺ ordered it to return and it did so. Then the Beduin said, “Let me prostrate to you,” and he ﷺ replied, “No one is allowed to do that.” The Beduin said, “Then I will kiss your hands and feet,” and the Prophet ﷺ allowed him to do so. Abu Ya’la (10:34 #5662), Ibn Hibban (14:434 Sahih), Bazzar (Zawa’id, 3:133-34), Tabarani (M. Awsat, #5068).
