The study of his biography (saws) is the study of the biography of the one whom Allah, Exalted be He, made him a model for the servants, as Allah, Exalted be He says (meaning of the verse): “Indeed you have in the Messenger of Allah an excellent model [to follow], for whoever hopes in Allah and the Last Day and calls on Allah frequently.
