Huzoor salallahu alayhi wa sallam had many wives - is anyone going to dare say he is not ascetic? He would be with his wives but as soon as the azan was sounded Hazrat Aisha (ra) says, "Marra ka alam ya'rifuna", - he went as if he did not know us. This was the perfect level of zuhd, asceticism, that he had.

The issue here is the heart. As long as the heart is not bound to the worldly things you're good. This is why shaikh e kaamil is necessary.

dear Shaykh,

I see your excellent point. Indeed, it’s impossible that anyone could be more of an ascetic than our Habib SAW and none of us should believe that for a second. I personally believe the Prophet SAW could have easily out-performed all their physical and spiritual feats but it was his consideration for us and our weakness that stopped him from doing so. Wallahu a’lam.
