Muhammad (pbuh) <strong>Uhud expedition<\/strong>When a cat breastfeeding her kittens appeared in front of the army, he set up a guard to prevent the cat from being crushed and led a whole army around that cat.  When he returned from the expedition, he asked the guard for the cat and adopted it and named it after him. <strong>Muezza<\/strong> put it.<\/p>\n<p>M\u00fcezza was a black and white Abyssinian cat.  He had spots inside his mouth and on his upper palate.  It is accepted that these uncommon cats with stains on their palate are descendants of M\u00fcezza.  Muezza was probably a stray cat and came from the hot, scorching desert streets of Mecca.  She was saved with the care of Muhammad (pbuh).<\/p>\n<p>Hz.  Muhammad (pbuh) loved his cat Muezza so much that one day, Muezza fell asleep on the edge of our prophet&#8217;s clothes while sitting on the sofa.  The Prophet, who sleeps like every cat friend, cannot resist this beauty.  Muhammad (pbuh), <strong>Rather than waking up M\u00fcezza, he preferred to get up by gently cutting the end of his clothes.<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Hz.  While Muhammad (pbuh) was going to perform ablution with the water remaining in the bowl after his cat Muezza drank, the Companion of the Prophet, Abu Nuaym, said, &#8220;O Messenger of Allah, the cat drank from that water.&#8221; <strong>\u201cThey have the cleanest mouth.\u201d<\/strong> He said and performed ablution.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"415\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11982\" style=\"width:820px;height:auto\" src=\"https:\/\/kasifiz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/kedilerin-gizemi7.png\" data-lazy- title=\"\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"415\" src=\"https:\/\/kasifiz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/kedilerin-gizemi7.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11982\" style=\"width:820px;height:auto\" title=\"\"><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Later, a lady named Keb\u015fe, the daughter of Kab, from among the companions, explains:<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI poured water into a bowl for my father-in-law Abu Qatadah, one of the Companions, to perform ablution.
