The Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) was a sign from the signs of Allah in morals and manners. He was unique to all of the prophets and human beings by his unequalled moralities. By his morals he could attract the hearts of his followers and even of his opponents. His morals enabled him to unite the Arabs and lead them in the purification of the earth from idolatry and ignorance. Therefore, Allah praised him in the holy Qur'an when saying: (And most surely you are with sublime morality). (1) The Prophet (SAWA) said about himself: "Surely, I have been sent to accomplish the nobilities of character." (2) The Prophet's high morals were from the essence of his nature. They were neither affected nor acquired. Historians say that the Prophet (SAWA) hated pretence and artificiality. He often prayed Allah saying: Allah, as You have bettered my creation, better my manners!"
