The Invitation of Bahira

The Invitation of Bahira

How did Bahira know that Muhammad (PBUH) will be the Prophet of the nation?! Bahira had read the Bible & the Torah, and Allah the Almighty mentioned the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in these two books, so Bahira knew the Prophet’s description and appearance.

Bahira called all the men of the caravan to have some food with him, what he never did before.

Bahira said, “Oh merchants of Quraish, I made you food and like to invite you all to it; your little boys and elderly, your slaves and masters.” One of the tribe commented, “There must be a matter with you today Bahira, you never did this before, although we were passing by a lot in the past.”

Bahira replied, “You are right, but I’d like to host you today; all of you, and don’t leave anyone behind.”
