The Prophet (saw) said “ If one of you is afflicted with a calamity, then let him remember
his calamity by me (i.e by my death); for indeed, it is the greatest of calamities. ”
It becomes clear to us from this hadeeth that the death of the Prophet (saw) is the greatest
calamity that has occured or will occur to the Muslim nation. The Prophet (saw) requests
that when we remember our calamities or afflictions, we should remember his death, and
his parting as well, a reflective process through which our other disasters will become
insignificant in comparison.
