Comprehension

What is meant by simplicity and humility?

Simplicity means to lead a simple life without any greed or lust for worldly pleasures and comforts. It must be reflected in all the aspects of an individual’s lifestyle from clothing to bedding, diet, and manners, etc. On the other hand, humility means to show a humble and down-to-earth attitude towards other people. Humility also stands for modest behaviour neither too low nor too proud.

Describe in a few sentences, the lifestyle of Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H) in the light of the text that you have read.

Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H) led a simple, humble life. He (P.B.U.H) used to do his work by himself rather than asking other family members. He (P.B.U.H) used to share his responsibilities with his companions. He (P.B.U.H) never liked to sit at the upper or special place while He (P.B.U.H) liked to sit among his fellows at the same level.

He (P.B.U.H) used to wear a simple dress. He (P.B.U.H) always gives respect to others irrespective of his caste, creed, or colour. He (P.B.U.H) always eats a simple diet and sleeps on a leather mattress made of date fibre. He (P.B.U.H) always showed respectful behaviour towards women. In totality, He (P.B.U.H) set an excellent example of simplicity and humility and showed the perfect way to His followers how they can adopt them and live a simple, genuine life.

How can simplicity and humility do away with the culture of extravagance and waste?

By adopting simplicity and humility in our lives, we would be able to shun the lust from our minds for spending our hard-earned money in buying unwanted luxurious items. We most of the time like to buy worldly items to satisfy our sense of pride and superiority. In this way, we waste our money to buy extra or expensive stuff. If we adopt simplicity and humility then our social behaviour would be considerate and genuine, our happiness would be original and we would bow our heads in humility and affection.

The main idea that we get after reading the last paragraph of the lesson “Simplicity and Humility of Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H)” is that we should follow the footsteps of our last Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) to have a balanced and satisfying lifestyle. By adopting the ways of simplicity and humility in our lives, we would be able to live our lives by the teachings of Islam and Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H).

If we adopt simplicity and humility, we would be in a better position to reject the worldly pleasures that we like to have just for pride and superiority. We would be able to spend our money on charity rather than waste it on buying the world’s foolish, luxurious items.

Q.A) Write a unified paragraph on the topic sentence, ‘pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real’ by using specific words, vivid verbs, modifier, and adequate supporting details to develop the main idea.

Answer:
‘Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real’ means that due to the feature of pride in one’s personality, that person starts thinking himself superior to others. He starts making artificial gestures and behaves superficially just to pose him at the upper level among his companions or fellow beings.

On the other hand, if a person is humble or follows the path of humility then he does not have to adopt artificial means to prove him a good human being. He represents himself as he is without boasting about his personality or positives. In reality, pride can be treated either in a positive way or in a negative. If a person feels pride in his achievements or success then it is positive but when a person feels pride as being a rich man, well-educated person, privileged human, etc and boasts them all considering others inferior to him then it is the negative aspect of pride.
