Musa'ab Ibn Omer

00:00:02 --> 00:00:03

who was a celebrity

00:00:04 --> 00:00:06

amongst the Quraysh when he was non Muslim.

00:00:06 --> 00:00:08

He was a celebrity. He had a new

00:00:08 --> 00:00:09

faux bond every day. He was a very

00:00:09 --> 00:00:11

young man, very beautiful man. Right? He would

00:00:11 --> 00:00:12

he was a trendsetter.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

You know, like celebrities, they make trends for

00:00:15 --> 00:00:17

people. If a celebrity is doing something with

00:00:17 --> 00:00:18

their hair, we wanna do that as well.

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

Well, not us, inshAllah. Inshallah. And then he

00:00:19 --> 00:00:20

became Muslim,

00:00:21 --> 00:00:23

and his parents cut him off financially. So,

00:00:23 --> 00:00:24

now He was in his teens at the

00:00:24 --> 00:00:26

time, 18, 19 years old. The prophet sallallahu

00:00:26 --> 00:00:28

alaihi wasallam sent him to Al Habasha, to

00:00:28 --> 00:00:29

Abyssinia.

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

He comes back a few years later. He

00:00:31 --> 00:00:33

walks into the Haram. He's wearing a tattered

00:00:33 --> 00:00:34

robe with with patches,

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

and his skin was rough. It was barely

00:00:37 --> 00:00:37

recognizable.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

And the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam looked at

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

him, and he started crying. Buqa'an shadeen. He

00:00:43 --> 00:00:44

started crying profusely.

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

He said, verily, I saw this person in

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

Mecca, and no one was more blessed by

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

his parents than he was. And then he

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

left all of that

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

for the intention of good and out of

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

love for Allah and his messenger salallahu alayhi

00:00:57 --> 00:00:57

wasallam.
