Anas tells us a gift was given to the Prophet and he said, "Take it to such-and-such a lady's house, she was a friend of Khadijah and loved her."
Lady Ayesha, may Allah be pleased with her, said, "When the Prophet mentioned Khadijah, I felt no woman had a greater advantage than her. When he sacrificed a sheep he would send some to her friends and when her sister asked permission to enter he was happy to see her."
Lady Ayesha also said, "A lady came to him and he welcomed her with kindness and inquired about her at length. When she left the Prophet said, 'She used to come to us when Khadijah was with us. Maintaining promises is part of belief."
The Prophet said, "The tribesmen of the children of so-and-so are not my friends, but there are kindred ties between us, so we will treat them with kindness on account of their kinship."
The Prophet’s daughter, Lady Zaynab, may Allah be pleased with her, had a daughter named Umamah whom the Prophet used to carry on his shoulders. When he prostrated he would put her down, and when he stood up he would pick Umamah up.
'Amr, As-Sa'ibs son said, "One day as the Messenger of Allah was sitting his foster father by suckling came to him. The Prophet spread out part of his garment for him and the man sat down. Thereafter, his suckling mother came and he put the other half of his garment on the opposite side so that she too might sit on it. Then, his suckling brother came and the Prophet got up for him and let his brother sit down in front of him."
After the Archangel Gabriel brought Prophet Muhammad the first Revelation, he was shaken and returned to his wife Lady Khadijah, may Allah be pleased with her. She immediately comforted him and attested to the uprightness of his character saying, "By Allah, be happy. Allah will never cause you to grieve. You preserve the ties of kinship, you help those in need, you are hospitable to guests, and assist people to receive what is due to them" (As reported in Muslim).
The Humility of the Prophet
Although Allah raised the Prophet to the highest rank and position he remained extremely humble; no trace of pride was ever observed in him. The proof of this is when he was offered a choice between being a king-prophet or a worshipper-prophet and he chose the latter.
