The name “Muhammad” is first and foremost concerned with describing the Prophet (Sal Allahu alayhi wa Salam) in his reality.

The name “Muhammad” is linked with praise (al-Hamd), which is derived from the Divine Name “Al-Hamīd” (The Praised One).

 

The root of Muhammad is H-M-D, which means:

to praise, to thank,

to celebrate the perfections of something or someone.

 

Muhammad is the passive participle of the second derived verbal form, which means: “to produce praise” and “to make praiseworthy”.

The name Muhammad therefore means: “He who has been made praiseworthy” or “he in whom praise is produced”.

 

In Arabic, the form corresponding to the name “Muhammad” qualifies nouns of place and time. Grammarians call these nouns “names of vase” or “of countenance”.

 

So the name “Muhammad”, which is at once a passive participle and a noun of time and of place, then takes on the meaning:

 

“He who is the place – or support – in whom praise is manifested during a given time or cycle”.

With these explanation and illustration, may I ask,

 

Who is not celebrating Mawlid an-Nabi?? 😱😱

Hence when you hear the Almighty saying MUHAMMAD; dont n just take it as a name but a golden secret, signifying that Muhammad is to be praised and celebrated at all time and places

But

It has to appear here…… head, that is to recognise his lofty and exclusive position

It has to appeal here…… heart, that is to love him more than yourself
