The Prophet Muhammad: The Best of All Husbands is a beautifully written, hardcover work spanning 96 pages that explores the exemplary character of the Prophet ﷺ in marital life and family relationships. Authored by Dr. Ghazi al-Shammari and translated into English by Najwa Jaffer, this book studies how the Prophet ﷺ interacted with his wives, balancing responsibilities, affection, justice, and kindness.
Through carefully selected hadiths, personal impressions from his wives (may Allah be pleased with them), and relevant Qur’anic guidance — including the command in Qur’an 4:59 to refer disputes to Allah and His Messenger — the author draws out practical lessons that married couples and those preparing for marriage can apply in their daily lives.
The narrative emphasizes Prophet Muhammad’s ﷺ patience, devotion, fairness, and emotional intelligence. He was husband, confidante, comforter, leader — never neglecting his role in the home even as he carried the burden of prophethood. For readers, this book offers not just inspiration but tools: how to improve communication, show respect, express love, manage emotions, resolve conflict, and maintain harmony in marriage.
Ideal for married couples, soon-to-be married individuals, family counselors, and anyone desiring to better their relationships through emulating the Sunnah, The Best of All Husbands serves not just as a biography but as a guide rooted in Ahlus Sunnah to build marriages that thrive on mercy, mutual understanding, and closeness to Allah.
In marriage, it often happens that we come across a situation in which things seem to be going haywire, and we wonder what the ideal stance and the best way to handle this problem are. For Muslims, the best stance and the best way is that of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Allah has taught that this is how we should seek to resolve our conflicts:
{If you differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger if you do believe in Allah and the Last Day: that is best and most suitable for final determination.} (Qur'an 4:59)
Our prophet was a husband with eleven women, each of whom has revealed to us her personal impressions of some or other aspect of his exemplary personality.
This book is a must-read for all married couples-and for any Muslim man or woman who is contemplating marriage-who wishes to achieve satisfaction in their personal lives.
