			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had promised his companions Radi Allahu Anhu that they would
go for Umrah. And then he saw in a dream it salat wa salam that they went for Umrah, and he informed
his companions that they were going to go for Umrah and all of them became very happy. Finally
they're going to go back to the base of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tala, it was customary that Quraysh being
the caretakers of the Kaaba, that they would let anyone who wants to come for a Motorhead, they
would let them come in, but due to the fact that they had been at war, and there have been problems
between the two, the prophets of Allahu alayhi wa sallam in the Companions, they came prepared, they
		
00:00:39 --> 00:01:14
			had their weapons with them. And sure enough, Quraysh when they heard that the Prophet alayhi
salaatu wa salaam was coming with his companions, they prepared soldiers under the command of
connoted mobileread who was not a Muslim at that time to stop them from entering into Mecca, the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he asked his companions for their advice he asked about Booker
and others, our book called The Allahu Allah and he said, that we go for our Ummah and if anyone
tries to stop them, that we fight them, because it's their right to go for Umrah just like anyone
else. Eventually the prophets of Allahu Allah he was sending. After having a dialogue with Quraysh
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:53
			they decided to reach an agreement and to sign a treaty, a treaty known as the treaty and who Davia
but some of the conditions that the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam agreed to many of the
companions found them very difficult to accept from them is that there will be no Omar for this year
and they would come back and make it up next year. And that anyone who left Islam and wanted to
return to Mecca he was allowed to do so. But anyone who accepted Islam in Mecca was not allowed to
move to Medina finding this difficult to accept some of the companions even from them, I'm going to
help them came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and asked him, aren't we the ones who are
		
00:01:53 --> 00:02:27
			upon the truth and they are the ones who are informed falsehood. The Prophet alayhi salatu salam, he
said, of course, Omar said then why should we accept something lower in our religion? Why should we
be the weak ones after speaking to the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam he went and he said the
same thing to Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Anhu remind him, this is the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
who was telling us this, if he says it, then we say we hear and we obey. After this, the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam ordered that they offer the sacrifice, they slaughter the animals they
brought with them, and that they shaved their heads and they returned to Medina. But the Sahaba were
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:58
			reluctant to do this, because they still had hope that perhaps that there was something would change
and they would still be able to go for Umrah, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam being
frustrated with this because they didn't follow the command immediately. And always if he tells them
to do something, they will immediately do it. He went into his tent and when his wife home, Selena
Radi Allahu anha saw that he was frustrated, she asked him what happened. He explained to her, she
advised him she told him, go outside, shave your hair in front of everyone else and offer your
sacrifice, and they will immediately follow you.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:38
			And sure enough, he went outside and did it at a salon to a salon, and the companion store to run
and race to implement the command. So much so that they almost harm one another. Each one was trying
to quickly shave his hair and to offer and to offer his sacrifice. After this when they were
returning from Mecca, Allah subhanho wa Taala sent down the verses in the beginning of Surah 10 foot
in Fontana, like I've heard him Albina that indeed we have given you O Muhammad a clear victory even
though it looked like a clear defeat to many of the sahaba. Or to many of the people were to look
from outside. But this was the sixth year of Hinduism. And what happened during this time that the
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:56
			Muslims conquered a favor and only two years later they came back to conquer Mecca. And this reminds
us that even at the times of difficulty, when we can't see the good in things that the victory of
Allah is coming as long as we play our parts by obeying Allah and obeying His Messenger SallAllahu
Allah he was sending him
