Short answer

This category illustrates the Prophet's humility (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) through 7 hadiths. He presents himself as a noble slave and not an obstinate tyrant, lets a slave girl take him by the hand and accepts every invitation, even to a sheep's trotter. He performed Hajj on an old worn saddle, saying: «O Allah, grant me a Hajj in which no showing off is intended nor reputation sought», visits people on foot and dislikes that they stand up upon his arrival.
