You can increase your love for Prophet Muhammad by realizing that: 1. Prophet Muhammad was sent by his Lord Who chose him above all of creation to convey the religion of Allah to mankind. 2. Allah has raised Prophet Muhammad to a high status. 3. He suffered trials and difficulties in order to bring Islam to us. 4. You should follow the example of his companions who loved him deeply. 5. You should follow his Sunnah in word and deed, so that his Sunnah is the path you follow in your whole life.

We need prophets to guide us to that which is best for us in this world and in the Hereafter. We cannot follow what is best for us with regard to the Hereafter unless we follow the message. We cannot be guided to what is best for us in this world unless we follow the message.

Prophet Adam, the father of mankind, was a Prophet, so he was the first of the Prophets and Prophet Nuh was the first of the Messengers of Allah.
