Islam is more than a religion it is an entire way of
life. It teaches us how to behave from
morning until night and it even tells us the best position to sleep in. To some that might sound like 24 hours a day
of rules and regulations but the truth is that Islam is such a natural way of
life the rules become as easy as breathing.
One thing that is as easy as breathing is smiling. That little curve of the mouth and wrinkling
of the eyes that makes not only you but those around you feel good. A smile lightens the load and frees the
spirit. Try it! See don’t you feel lighter and happier?
Prophet Muhammad smiled, often and with real joy. In fact he smiled so regularly that his smile
and kind demeanour are mentioned time and time again in anecdotes and stories
from his traditions.
Abdullaah ibn Haarith said, “I never came across a person
who smiled as much as Prophet Muhammad.
Prophet Muhammad regarded smiling to a brother as an act of charity.”[1]
Jarir bin Abdullah said, “The Messenger of God never refused
me permission to see him since I embraced Islam and never looked at me except
with a smile (on his face).”[2]
When one of Prophet Muhammad’s companions was asked if he
sat with the Prophet he replied, “Yes, very often. He (the Prophet) used to sit at the place
where he observed the morning or dawn prayer till the sun rose or when it had
risen; he would stand, and they (his Companions) would talk about matters
(pertaining to the days) of ignorance, and they would laugh (on these matters)
while (the Prophet) only smiled.”[3]
One of the companions of Prophet Muhammad talks about his
relationship with the Prophet when he (the companion) was a young boy. Anas said, “The Messenger of God was one of
the best men in character. One day he
sent me to do something, and I said: I swear by God that I will not go. But in my heart I felt that I should go to do
what the Messenger of God had commanded me; so I went out and came upon boys
playing in the street. All of a sudden
the Messenger of God, who had come from behind, caught me by the back of the
neck, and when I looked at him he was laughing.
….”[4]
Prophet Muhammad, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon
him, had a kind and gentle nature. His
beloved wife Aisha described his character as the Quran, meaning that Prophet
Muhammad lived by the teachings of the Quran.
Thus the behaviour and personality of Prophet Muhammad are the best
examples for us to follow in our own lives.
A companion who spent more than 10 years with Prophet Muhammad said,
“Throughout my stay with him I never heard an indecent word from his lips and
never found him rude to anyone. He spoke
very politely. He was kind to everyone”. The Prophet’s natural disposition led him to
smile and laugh along with the people around him.
Consequently if the Prophet smiled, it must innately be
something good for both ourselves and the people around us. Islam was designed by the Creator to be the
perfect way of life for humankind thus sometimes the smallest of things can
have a big impact. A smile is one of
those things. Therefore not surprisingly
smiling has many many positive effects.
Smiling is viewed across cultures as a sign of friendliness
and it is a natural response that shares our happiness with others. Smiling lowers the heart rate and temporarily
reduces blood pressure. It reduces
stress by releasing endorphins that naturally diminish stress hormones
simultaneously putting you in a better mood.
Endorphins also lessen pain.
Smiling and laughter therefore are useful aids in health care. Still in the area of health, smiling boosts
the immune system by relaxing the body and allowing the immune system to react
more quickly and effectively to invaders.
