No worldly wealth guaranteed from following him.2. Limited knowledge of the unseen (Ghayb).3. Human nature, not angelic, making him relatable as a role model.Levels of Ghayb (Unseen Knowledge):• Ghayb Nisbi (relative unseen): known to some, not to others (e.g., something behind a person’s back).• Ghayb revealed to the Prophet ﷺ: through revelation or special events (Isra’ wal Mi’raj).• Ultimate Ghayb: known exclusively by Allah.Significance:• Prophet ﷺ never spoke about the unseen without divine guidance, demonstrated by his silence when awaiting revelation (e.g., Surah Al-Kahf incident).Prophetic Lesson on Saying “InshaAllah”:• Prophet ﷺ taught to always use “InshaAllah” sincerely when referring to future plans. It should not be misused as a subtle refusal or insincere promise.
