ADHIKR

Since Muhammed’s father, Abdullah, had died while his grandfather, Abdul Muthwalib, was still alive, Muhammed did not inherit property. In his childhood, he worked grazing goats. After marrying Khadeeja, a widow from the Quraishi tribe, he became the head of the household and managed her business affairs. Thus, he gained self-sufficiency in livelihood. After prophethood, over twenty-three years of Revelation, Adhikr – the Mercy and Prosperity – was completed, and thus Allah made him prosperous by all means. See explanation 42: 52; 92: 6-7.
