The Perfection of the Prophet's Speech
There are many reports of the Prophet's mastery of the Arabic tongue together with his eloquence and fluency of speech. When he spoke he was very concise, skilful in debate and expressed things clearly. His speech was well structured, free from all affectation and he used sound meanings.
He was adept in all the different dialects of Arabia and able to converse
with each community using their own classical expressions. When they debated or argued with him he replied using their regular phrasing, and there were several occasions when his Companions were unable to understand what he said and requested him to explain. This is verifiable by anyone who has studied the science of Prophetic Quotations and his biography.
The way in which he spoke to the Koraysh of Mecca and the Ansar of Medina, or the people of the Hijaz or Najd was different from the way in which he spoke to Dhul Mishar Al Hamdhani, Tahfah Al Handi, Katan, Haritha Al Ulaymi's son, Al Ashath, Kays' son, Wail, Hujr Al Kindi's son and other chieftains of the Hadramat and the kings of Yemen.
The adept choice of the Prophet's words
The eloquence of the speech of the Prophet is unequaled and demonstrated in the following sampling:
"The blood of Muslims is the same. The least of them is able to represent them. They are united together against others.
"The blood of Muslims is the same. The least of them is able to offer their protection. They are united together against other people.
