Asked what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was like, ʿĀʾishah, Mother of the Faithful, answered that his character was the Qur'an.

The forty Hadiths in this volume show what that answer looked like across an ordinary day. He dipped his hand into every vessel the servants of Madinah carried to him after the dawn prayer. He asked after any man he had not seen for three days, and prayed for him if he was absent. He held a man's hand in parting and let the other withdraw first. He turned his face and his speech towards the least regarded person in a gathering in order to win him over. He hemmed his own garment, mended his own sandals, milked the sheep, sat on the ground to eat, and accepted a slave's invitation to barley bread. He corrected a fault without naming the one who had committed it. He was optimistic, loved good names, visited the sick, and patted the heads of the children of the Anṣār.

Every narration is referenced, the Arabic vocalised, and the English rendered in clear and readable prose.

Descriptions of his character were transmitted so that they might be imitated.
