ability to walk. When he was 6 months old, he started walking fast. At 7 months, he ran with ease. When he was 8 months old, he spoke so clearly that his speech could be understood. At 9 months, he started speaking eloquently. When the Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم reached 10 months, he would surpass other children in archery and say: لِلّٰہِ دَرُّکَ یَا نَفْسُ اَنَا اِبْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ "O soul! May Allah bless you. I am the son of ꜤAbd al-Muṭṭalib." During those days, people asked him, "Who are you?" He صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم replied, "In strength, I am the strongest Arab; in spear-fighting, I am the bravest of all; and in faith, I am the highest, Muhammad b. ꜤAbdullāh b. ꜤAbd al-Muṭṭalib صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم."^[1]
