The year is 581… I am nine years old. I wake up and wash my face. I get dressed and have breakfast. Then, my family and I talk about the future. My dad says there will be flying cars in 2024. Everyone agrees with him. After that, I put on my shoes and play with my friends at the playground. I have a really good friend named Muhammad. We love each other and play lots of games together.

A few years later... The year is 610. My friend Muhammad becomes a prophet. I tell my mom, and she believes me. After a couple of weeks, I asked Muhammad, "Why did you pray until your feet ached?"

He said:
"Actually, I don't have to do this, but I want to pray to Allah."

My family and I become Muslim in the year 632. It’s Friday, and we pray to Allah, but we don’t know that Muhammad has passed away.

Suddenly, I woke up. It was just a dream. But in this dream, I learned how we can feel closer to Prophet Muhammad. We can feel closer to him by doing the things he did.
