When it came to women, it is reported in the hadith that the Prophet never touched a woman over whom he did not have rights.
Ali described the Prophet saying, "He was the most truthful of people."
Prophet Muhammad told the people, "May Allah have mercy on you, who will be just if I am not just? If I am not just I will fail and lose."
Lady Ayesha, Mother of Believers, may Allah be pleased with her, confirms whenever the Prophet was given the choice between two matters he always chose the easier of the two as long as it was not sinful. If it was sinful then he was the furthest of people from it."
Imam Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, said he heard the Prophet say, "There were only two occasions when I was close to the improper practices practiced by the people during the 'Time of Ignorance' and on both occasions Allah prevented me. I have never considered doing anything like them ever since Allah honored me with His Message. One of the two occasions occurred one night when I asked a boy who was my fellow herdsman, to watch the sheep for me while I went to Mecca to spend the night. As I approached, I heard the playing of flutes and drums coming from one of the houses in Mecca as they celebrated someone’s marriage. I had just sat to watch when suddenly, my sense of hearing ceased and I was overcome by sleep, and nothing but the warmth of the sun woke me and I returned without having participated. The same thing happened another time, and since then I have never considered doing anything improper."
The Dignified Refinement and Disposition of the Prophet
The Companion Abu Sayeid Al Khudri observed the posture of the Prophet during meetings. He tells us that on most occasions he would sit with his hands clasped around his legs which he had pulled up to his stomach. Jabir, Samura's son said that the Prophet sat cross-legged.
As for the way in which the Prophet walked, he inclined forward, similar to the way in which one walks when is going down a slope. It has also been reported that as he walked he concentrated, his pace was moderate and he neither walked hastily nor did he tarry.
Abdullah, Masood's son said, "The best guidance is that of Muhammad ."
Jabir, Abdullah's son informs that, "The words of the Messenger of Allah elegant in their phrasing and flowed easily."
