When did Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) cried

Tears of Prophet Mohammad (Peace be upon him).

His tears (ﷺ):

As for his crying, it was similar to his laughter. He (ﷺ) did not breathe hard while crying. His eyes would tear up and there would be some sounds in his chest. 

Sometimes he (ﷺ) would cry because someone had died, sometimes out of fear for his nation, sometimes out of fear from Allah, and sometimes when listening to the Qur'aan. He (ﷺ) cried out of love and glorification to Allah, as well as out of fear of Him.

When his son Ibraheem died, the Prophet of Allah (ﷺ) cried out of mercy. 

And he (ﷺ) cried when seeing one of his daughters on her deathbed. 

[See Musnad of Ahmad (21272)]

He (ﷺ) cried while listening to 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ood (may Allah be pleased with him) reciting Chapter an-Nisaa` of the Qur'aan.

[al-Bukhari (4582) and Muslim (800)]

He (ﷺ) also cried when 'Uthmaan ibn Math'oon (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away, and while praying the eclipse prayer. 

He (ﷺ) cried while sitting near the grave of one of his daughters and he used to cry while praying the night prayer.

[Zaad al-Ma'aad (1/183)]
