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
