The B.O.P. s.a.w. No. 6.

 My Dear Quran Lovers,
 Let us continue to look into the Biography of the Prophet s.a.w. :
  The Prophet named Muhammad .s.a.w/peace be upon him, was care for by his wet-nurse, Halimatus-Saadiah for 4 years, then by his mother, Aminah for 2 years. When his mother passed away when he s.a.w. was 6, his grandfather, Abd Muttalib took care of him, but, 2 years later, the grandfather passed away. Then, he s.a.w. was under his uncle, Abi Tolib's care. 
 Abi Tolib was not a well to do person. He had many children. Then, our Fourth Caliph, Ali ibni Abi Tolib k.a.w /Allah honoured his face (because he had never worshipped idol) was not being born yet. Each time Abi Tolib had his food, he was still hungry because he had not have enough food to feed his family. But, when BoyMuhammad s.a.w. was with him or with his children eating the "little" food that they had, all felt filled up. So, each time they  fed, they would call BoyMuhammad to eat with them.
 Wherever Abi Tolib went to the out-station, he would bring BoyMuhammad s.a.w. along. One time, they went to Syria on a business trip and had brought along BoyMuhammad who was about Eleven. On their way to Syria, the caravan came accross a Christian clergyman named Bahira who was on his search for the "last and final Prophet" mentioned in the Torah and in the Gospel. The attributes of the Prophet and the signs of a prophet are also mentioned in the Holy Books. Clergyman Bahira invited Abi Tolib and his people to his house and entertained them with food and drink with the intention of, to observe and find out the one who was among the group with the signs and the attributes of a Prophet. But failed, because there was none. He then asked Abi Tolib whether those were all of his, Abi Tolib's group members. Abi Tolib replied that there was one person who was not present because was on watch over their merchandise at their resting house. But he was just a child.
 Bahira asked Abi Tolib to bring the person over, even though he was a child.  When BoyMuhammad s.a.w. came and met the Clergyman, Bahira watched closely at BoyMuhammad s.a.w, all of his movements and other signs in him s.a.w. and found that BoyMuhammad was the person he was searching for. Then he, Bahira praised BoyMuhammad s.a.w. and advised Abi Tolib to take good care of BoyMuhammad s.a.w. because,  one day in the future Muhammad s.a.w would be a great leader of his people. And if the Jews were to know that this BoyMuhammad s.a.w. would be the promised Final and the Last of the Prophets, they would surely had him s.a.w. killed because they did/do not want a non-Children of Israel, especially an Arab, to be the Promised Prophet. (to be continued).
 Until we meet again in the next session, Insya Allah, see all of You Quran Lovers later.
 Wassalamu alaikum w. w.
