The topic

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

of this evening's talk of mine is

00:00:07 --> 00:00:08

prophet Muhammad,

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

peace be upon him, the liberator

00:00:12 --> 00:00:13

of humanity.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

I started my talk with the quotation from

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

the glorious Quran, from Surah Anbiya,

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

chapter number 21, verse number 107.

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

That we have send thee not but as

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

a mercy to all the worlds,

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

as a mercy to all the creatures,

00:00:33 --> 00:00:36

as a mercy to the whole of humanity.

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

Allah

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

says in Surah Saba chapter number 34 verse

00:00:40 --> 00:00:41

number 28.

00:00:50 --> 00:00:53

That we have sent thee not, but as

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

a universal

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

messenger

00:00:55 --> 00:00:59

giving glad tidings and warning men against sin.

00:01:00 --> 00:01:02

But most of them did not understand.

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

Since Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, he

00:01:06 --> 00:01:09

was the last and final messenger.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

He was not sent only for the Muslims

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

or only for the Arabs.

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

But prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, he

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

was sent for the entire humanity.

00:01:20 --> 00:01:21

And I would like to share with you

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

an incident

00:01:22 --> 00:01:26

of Suhail bin Amr. Suhail bin Amr, he

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

was sent by the Quraysh

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

to negotiate with the prophet

00:01:31 --> 00:01:32

before the treaty of Hudaybiyyah.

00:01:33 --> 00:01:36

Now, Sohail bin Amr, he was an international

00:01:37 --> 00:01:37

negotiator.

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

He had been to the Roman Empire.

00:01:40 --> 00:01:42

He had been to the Persian Empire. He

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

had been to Abyssinia,

00:01:44 --> 00:01:45

and

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

he had

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

a firsthand experience

00:01:49 --> 00:01:50

of how the Sahaba

00:01:51 --> 00:01:53

dealt with the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:01:53 --> 00:01:56

Now, Suhail bin Amr, when he returns back

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

to the Quraysh,

00:01:58 --> 00:01:59

he tells them

00:01:59 --> 00:02:02

that I have seen the Roman Empire,

00:02:02 --> 00:02:04

I have seen the Persian Empire,

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

I have seen the Empire of Abyssinia,

00:02:07 --> 00:02:10

but I have not seen any followers

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

love and respect

00:02:12 --> 00:02:15

their leader so much, the way the Sahaba

00:02:16 --> 00:02:16

love

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

and respect the prophet Muhammad peace be upon

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

him.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:22

Suhail bin Amr, being a non Muslim,

00:02:24 --> 00:02:24

he

00:02:25 --> 00:02:26

was shocked

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

and impressed with how the Sahaba

00:02:29 --> 00:02:31

dealt with the prophet Muhammad peace be upon

00:02:31 --> 00:02:32

him.
