• Ibn al-Qayyim said that in Surah al-Ahzāb, Allah offered Al-Amānah (trust, moral responsibility, honesty, and all duties ordained by Allah) to the heavens, earth, and mountains, but they declined out of fear, while man bore it, being unjust and ignorant; (33:72).
• Human beings are created with Jahl (ignorance) and Zulm (oppression), which were very common before the Prophet came.
• The bare minimum needed from Taleem is certainty, and from Tazkiyā is patience.
• Allah promises leadership to those who meet the bare minimum He asks, as stated in the 'Ayah: "And We made from among them (Children of Israel), leaders, giving guidance under Our Command, when they were patient and used to believe with certainty in Our 'Ayāt (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)." (32:24)
• To educate them the Prophet used al Wahi - the revelation given to Prophet Muhammad

• The Prophet said: "You are not a true believer Until IBecomeMoreBeloved For YouThan Your Children Parents andallOfThePeople".

Prophet's role in Ummah

• As narrated in Sahīh from Abū Hurayrah, the Prophet expressed his wish to see those from his Ummah who would sacrifice their children, women, and entire wealth just to see him once.
• Just to see the commentaR they are the Prophet one time, all his family and wealth will perish. He will not be a companion and won't spend any time in with The Prophet. These people are the ones that love the Prophet the most
