The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is "Rahmat-ul-lil-Alameen". He is the only creation of Allah Ta'ala who has been given this title & no other creation can be given this title. Allah Ta'ala says in the Holy Quran: "& I have not sent you but as Mercy unto the Worlds". (Part 17 Ruku 7) the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) has stated: "Every Nabi only comes towards his people & I have been sent unto all nations. I have been sent as a Messenger unto the entire creation." (Mishkaat Shareef & Sahih Muslim Shareef)
In the Holy Quran it has been stated that the women who married the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) are the most unique women amongst all the women. If just by marrying the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) they are considered to be so great, then who can compare or be more unique than the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)?
The Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: "I am not like any one of you". (Tirmidhi & Sahih Bukhari)
Sayyiduna Ali (radi Allahu anhu) said: "I have not seen anybody similar to the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) either before of after." (Tarikh-e-Kabeer & Tirmidhi Shareef)
The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) stopped his Sahaba from keeping continuous fasting without partaking in Sehri & Iftaar. When the Sahaba-e-Ikram insisted that they also fast in the manner as Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) kept his fasts, he told them: "I am not like (similar to) you. I am given food & water." (Sahih Bukhari & Sahih Muslim)
None of the Sahaba-e-Ikram (radi Allahu anhum) ever told Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) that he is a human being like them, that he has two hands & feet like them, that he eats & drinks like them & that he has wives & children like them.
Concerning the blessed face of the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam), Sayyiduna Aisha Siddiqua (radi Allahu anha) states: "I was sewing something at the time of Sehri & the needle fell down. I searched very much for it, but it could not be found. Just then the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) entered & through the brightness of his face, I found the needle." (Khasaais Kubra & Al-Qaul-ul-Badi'lisaqawi)
The saliva of the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is not unclean nor does it cause any illness, but it is the cure for illnesses. On the day of Khaibar, the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) put his blessed saliva into Sayyiduna Ali's (radi Allahu anhu) eyes & he was completely cured. (Mishkaat Shareef; Masnad-e-Imam Ahmed) The well at Sayyiduna Ali's house (radi Allahu anhu) was very bitter. When the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) put his saliva into the well, the water became so sweet that no water in the entire of Madinah Munawwarah tasted sweeter than that. (Madarij-un-Nubuiwat; Anwaar-ul-Muhammadiyah)
The blessed perspiration of Sayyiduna Muhammad Mustafa (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) possessed a sweet smelling fragrance. Sayyiduna Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha), the mother of Sayyiduna Anas (radi Allahu anhu), said that the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) used to go to the house of Sayyiduna Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha) to make Qailula (rest after lunch). Sayyiduna Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha) used to lay for him a bedspread made from skin. He used to lie on that skin & he perspired very much. Sayyiduna Umme Salim (radi Allahu anha) used to collect the blessed perspiration of the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) & mix it in perfume. The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) asked, "O Umme Salim! What is this?" She said, "Ya Rasoolullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)! It is your blessed perspiration. I mix it in my perfume because your blessed perspiration is the best perfume amongst all perfumes." (Mishkaat Shareef & Bukhari Shareef)
The blessed blood of the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is Paak (pure). During the Battle of Uhud, the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) was wounded. Sayyiduna Malik bin Sunaan (radi Allahu anhu), the father of Sayyiduna Abu Saeed Khudri (radi Allahu anhu), began to suck out the blood from the wound of the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) & it began to look white. The Sahaba asked him to spit it out. He refused to do so & said, "I swear by Allah that I will never spit this blood out of my mouth." He then drank the blessed blood of the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam). The Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, "Whichever one of you wishes to see a Jannati man, you should look at him (Hazrat Malik bin Sunaan)". (Shifa Shareef & Madarij-un-Nabuiwat)
Sayyiduna Allama Ahmad Qistilaani (alaihir rahmah), the commentator of Bukhari Shareef, states: "Make yourself aware that the physical body of the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) was created in such a way that no one was created similar to him before & nor will their be any one similar who will be born after him." (Muwahib-ul-Ladaniyah)
After examining the authentic narrations from distinguished books, we see that the Aqeeda of the Sahaba-e-Ikram & of the great Scholars was that the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is a unique human being & there is no one that is like him, equal or similar to him. He is the most unique amongst the creation of Allah Ta'ala.
