✨The Beautiful Biography Before Prophethood:::
The existence of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was a composite of all the virtues and perfections that were found in different classes of people. He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was a tower of insight, foresight and truthfulness. He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was blessed with good insight, maturity of thought and accuracy of means and purpose. He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to seek help in continuous contemplation, constant reflection and belief in the truth from his long silence.
With his fresh intellect and bright nature, he studied the truth of life, the affairs of people and the conditions of groups and felt a strong disgust for the superstitions in which all these were involved.
Therefore, he (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) remained close to all of them and traveled the journey of life among people with full insight, that is, he would participate in the good work of people, otherwise he would return to his appointed solitude.
Therefore, he (peace be upon him) did not drink alcohol, did not eat the sacrificial animals of the shrines, and never participated in the festivals and fairs celebrated for idols.
From the very beginning, he (peace be upon him) hated these false gods so much that nothing was more hateful to him than them. He (peace be upon him) did not even like to swear by Lat and Uzza.
