Sahih Muslim 286b (Book 2, Hadith 129) #7833
Kindness and Compassion of the Prophet Muhammad

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) showed kindness and compassion to a baby by pouring water over it after it urinated in his lap.

A'isha reported: A suckling babe was brought to the Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him) and he urinated in his tap. He (the Holy Prophet) sent for water and poured it over.
وَحَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِصَبِيٍّ يَرْضَعُ فَبَالَ فِي حِجْرِهِ فَدَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَصَبَّهُ عَلَيْهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by A'isha speaks of the mercy, compassion, and kindness of the Prophet Muhammad. It is said that a baby was brought to him and urinated on his lap. Instead of getting angry or scolding the child, he showed immense love and care for it by sending for water to pour over himself. This hadith teaches us that even in difficult situations we should remain patient, kind, and compassionate towards others. We should not let our anger get the best of us but instead show mercy towards those who are weaker than us such as children or animals.
