Question
What were the physical training exercises of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam)?
Answer
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and the Sahaabah had no regular physical exercise training programme. They were not in need of such programmes. Their simple, frugal and austere lifestyle, their adoption of the Sunnah, their abundance of Nafl Salaat, their focus on the Aakhirat, their horses, spears and arrows provided adequate training for their physical and spiritual health. They were men of the Aakhirat, not men of the dunya.
