Hamzah Wald Maqbul – Hayat alSahabah The Least of Them in Desire of This World.mp4

Sayidna Umar sent him to Kufa,

which is the the kind of most populous

metropolis of of of of Islam So it's

the reign of

who had the most people, and it it

produced the most,

revenue for the state. And so it became

kind of a center for population. It was

a city that was established by the Sahaba

across the banks of the river from,

which, in Arabic was called Mada'in, was the

imperial capital of Persia.

So they set a a a a a

encampment across the river from it. This was

the policy of Said no Umar that

no conquering Muslim army should enter into an

established metropolis out of fear that they would

loot or abuse,

the loot from or abuse the residents,

because of the unchecked nature of a,

an army entering into, into a land. And

so he would force them to encamp in

a certain place and then have the, the

elders and the commanders and the seniors of

the sahaba enter into the city for whatever

business they had, if the city had surrendered,

or been taken in a an amicable way.

So Kufa was after Madinah Munawara,

the first city that was established by the

Sahaba radiAllahu ta'ala anhu and in that sense

is very important in the history of Islam.

So Saydah Abdullah bin Mas'ud radiAllahu anhu was

sent by Saydna Umar

to teach the people their deen.

So he said to the people one day,

you fast more,

and you read more salat,

and you put in more effort, into your

deen than the companions of the Messenger of

Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. However, they're still

better than you.

For the at that time, at least they

could say that they fasted more and prayed

more and they put more effort into the

deen and the messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi

wa sallam. Despite that, they're still better.

We can't even say that much for ourselves

anymore.

So they said, oh, Abu Abdul Rahman, which

is the.

Oh, Abu Abdul Rahman, why is that true?

Why is it true?

He said, radiAllahu anhu,

because they were people who,

had turned their backs on the dunya.

They were more ashadiq, meaning they took less

from the dunya and they had less hope

in the dunya

than you do. We have more hope than

them in the dunya. And they had more.

They had more hope in the akhirah than

you do.

And this was,

the quality of them.

It's also mirrored in the by Abu Abu

Wa'il Rahimullah

that he said I heard Abdullah bin Masudu

Sorry, Abdullah bin Masudu

heard a man say, where are the people

who are the people who've turned away from

the dunya and where are the people who

have,

turned toward the. So So Abdullah bin Mas'ud

radiallahu anhu he,

mentioned a group of the companions of the

messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam that

took play took part in it, a battle,

in

the battle of Jabiya Al Jabiya, which is

a battle that took place, some some time

sorry, somewhere south of Damascus in in the

Biladusham

when during the reign of Sayna Amr radiallahu

ta'ala anhu. So he mentioned the companions of

the messenger of Allah salallahu alaihi wa sallam

in the battle of Jabi'ah that they came

together, 500 of them, and they took an

oath that none of them will return until

they give their life for the sake of

Allah ta'ala. And as they,

mark of that valve to solemnize that valve,

they all shaved their heads.

And, they then met the enemy, and, all

of them were killed except for a small

number because of which we know about what

happened. If it wasn't for them, we wouldn't

have even known about

this. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala put the

raghbah of the akhla in our hearts and

decrease the raghbah for the dunya in our

hearts, make us as
