Allah says in the Qur'an that our Prophet (saas) was very attached to the believers: "A Messenger has come to you from among yourselves. Your suffering is distressing to him, he is deeply concerned for you, and he is gentle and merciful to the believers" (Surat al-Tawba: 128). In the hadiths, he made many recommendations about their health, security, and faith, all the while approaching them with mercy and compassion. One result of this love and attachment was that he prayed for many things on their behalf. Allah states in the Qur'an:
… pray for them. Your prayers bring relief to them. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. (Surat al-Tawba: 103)
Thus, his prayers for believers brought them rest and peace of mind. Similarly, the hadiths say that he prayed for long life for his Companions and that these prayers were answered. Some of these Companions are mentioned by name:
Ibn Abi Shaybah related from Abu Nu`aym and Ibn al-Asakir: He caused the Prophet to drink milk. The Prophet prayed to Him: "O Allah, may He make the most of his youth." 36
Other hadiths mention how his prayers made some of the Companions continue to look young even when they were quite old. Those Companions for whom he prayed for long lives lived for 100 years. 37 He stroked the head of another Companion and prayed: "O Allah, make him beautiful and make that beauty long-lasting." That Companion's face remained young and handsome until he died. 38
