Shalaby was one of the companions who became Muslim with the
unsought of Medina. His name actually conveys a lot about him.
His name means literally small grown or even deformed. That's the
way that it was, you know he was named. And why because he was
actually quite small in stature, very frail, very thin. And some of
the descriptions say that he was very unattractive as well. And
because of that he was ostracized he was teased a lot. He was also
an orphan, no features no no traits about him that anybody
deemed worthy, except for of course, the best of creation
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he accepted Islam, the prophesy
centum of course saw in him qualities that were beautiful
because he didn't look to the outward. So he saw Julie Biba as
being very special, and someone of immense worth, to the point that
he actually went to a very prominent family of Medina, who
had a daughter who she's not known. We don't know her name. But
this woman, this young girl was very sought after she a lot of the
Sahaba were, she had many suitors. And so the family was a wealthy
family. And she was quite stunningly beautiful. And the
prophesy, Saddam chose to be his representative, his advocate to
this family. And he went up to the father of this family. And he
said, I'm asking for your daughter's hand in marriage. And
so he of course, was so overjoyed, because the he thought it was the
boss isn't asking for himself and who better than the best of
creation to hand his daughter over to so he was like, he was so
happy. And the prophesy said, I'm told him, I'm actually not asking
on my behalf. And as soon as he asked him, then who and he was
told it was July maybe he was shocked, but he didn't want to
have bad weather but the prophets I said, I'm so he said, I need to
ask her mother and she began to scream hysterically. She was like,
Absolutely not. And her daughter, this beautiful girl who everybody
is eyeing and vying for, she hears her mother screaming, comes and
says, what's going on? And they tell her that the bra was was so
dumb has asked for your hand for Julie B, she immediately turned to
her parents who were like, there's no way we're marrying you to him,
don't worry. And she said, How could you go against the
prophesies?
He would never wish anything wrong for me. He would never want
anything but my head for me. I will accept this proposal. But why
did she do it? Because she had that love for the prophesies that
um, they lived peacefully together until was murdered after the
battle, the officers have turned to his companions asking each one
of them if they have found anyone missing, you know, from their
family, from their people from their tribe. Did you find anyone
missing? Is anyone missing amongst you? And they would they said so
and so and so and so he again asked, is there anyone missing
amongst you? And they said so and so he then again, is asking them
like, you know, again, eagerly trying to locate someone right of
importance to him. And now he reveals that and he says after
they've repeatedly said, No, there isn't anybody, he says what, but I
am missing Julia Habib. In other words, he's important to me, you
may have found all these other people who are your family
members, your people, but I'm missing someone very special to me
that his rank was with the prophesy centum. And so the
Companions began to search for him and they found that he had been
martyred. There were seven bodies laying around him and the process
of them came heartbroken to see that he had been martyred that he
had killed the seven and then one of them must have finally killed
him. And then he said, he is from me, and I am from him. Right? We
are the same and other words were the same. And he made sure to
repeat it through two to three times and then because he was so
small and so frail, do they be busy as a person? The problem was
that I picked him up by his own arms, and he placed him in the
ground, he dug his grave, He buried him himself. And that was,
you know, the story that I think that conveys really love in so
many different ways. So many forms of love.
