Sayyid wa sanadi Mawlana Mohammad Taqi Usmani (Allah preserve him) wrote:

“What really is important with regard to the Holy Prophet, (Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) is,

first to follow his teachings,

and second to make his pious Seerah available to every Muslim,

to preserve it in the hearts of the Muslims from the very childhood,

to educate the family members to run their lives according to it and

to hold it as the most glorious example of the human conduct the universe has ever witnessed.

To do all this with utmost love and reverence, not manifested by some formal activities only, but also through actual behavior of following the Sunnah.

This cannot be done by merely holding processions and illuminating the walls.

This requires constant and consistent efforts and a meaningful program of education and training.”
