Hosai Mojaddidi – The Beautiful Story of Julaybib (RA)

I wanted to share one of the most powerful stories of love that

we're describing, because I'm describing this amazing love, or

one of the great stories from the Sierra, that I think really

conveys. This is the story of one of the companions of the prophesy

son named Julie beep. If you don't know the story, I really hope that

you'll read into it more, but I'm going to share it with you here.

Today B was one of the companions who took who became Muslim with

the unsought of Medina. And he, 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, he actually looked, you know, just not not very appealing.

And because of that, he was ostracized, he was teased a lot.

He was also an orphan. So he had no lineage, no support, no family

backing. And this was, you know, a time and a place where that those

things mattered. If you had at least family and lineage, you

could be protected. So he had nothing. He had no money, no

wealth, no features no no traits about him, that anybody deemed

worthy, except for, of course, the best of creation sallallahu alayhi

wa sallam. In fact, he was in this was, you know, prior to Islam, but

he was bullied so often that he actually was ostracized from the

men of Medina. And he would take refuge and comfort with a women

because they were actually compassionate towards him. That's

how he was mistreated so poorly. So the, when he accepted Islam,

the prophet sly said, um, of course, saw in him qualities that

were beautiful, because he didn't look to the outward, right, this

is the difference between having the proper, you know, sight,

because we can see, for example, right, we see things but if you

don't have, you know, the discernment to know what's truly a

value and what's not, then you're not going to see things according

to their true value. So the prophesy sort of saw people not

for their outward appearance, he didn't judge people based on the

way that they were dressed, or their, you know, status or their

names. He looked at character, and he looked at, he could penetrate

between, you know, from all of that and see into the, to their

soul. And so he saw Julie Bebo 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 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 centum imagine, here's a

man who everybody looks at as being worthless as nothing. 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 process of 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 you

know, assuming that it must be another companion, like aboubaker

is a novel about God or Satan Ahmad are one of the other great

companions. And he was told it was July maybe

he was shocked, but he didn't want to have bad either. But the

prophets I said, I'm so he said, I need to ask her mother. Let me

consult with her. And he immediately went to her and he

conveyed that this proposal had come and she had the same initial

reaction, the prophesy centum is asking for our daughter how

amazing and he had to tell her no, no, he's not asking for himself.

He's asking for someone else who, Julie VB and she began to scream

hysterically. She was like absolutely not no way no way and

all the blah she made some very egregious statements that were

what she said was was inappropriate, swearing by Allah

that she would never ever ever marry her daughter to Julie be

because he was seen as so low and beneath her. Now, I want you to

imagine the scene unfolding. You know, she's screaming, 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 Bravo setup has asked for your hand for

Julie B. And this girl mashallah again, we don't know her name

Subhan Allah what a demonstration of love for the prophesy set um,

and trust in the prophesy. Salam

This is true love. 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 favorite for me, I will accept this proposal.

Shocked, right everybody's I mean, this is like, a huge shock to to

everyone that hears this girl everybody's vying for, and she's

gonna married you a beep. But why did she do it? Because she had

that love for the prophesies that, um, that she didn't question him.

She didn't question that he really wanted her cat even if the, you

know, the, the optics didn't look like something that was good or

favorable to other people. She knew in her heart of hearts, that

because it came from the prophesize that, um, it was worthy

Subhanallah they were married. And they lived peacefully together

until July, he was one of the companions in a battle. Again,

it's not mentioned which one but he was martyred. Now this is where

Subhanallah we see the story. I mean, just again, trying to

imagine this scene unfolding because here's a man orphaned and

we've described how people perceived him, but to the

prophesies that him clearly he was of great importance to the point

that during the battle, or 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 write 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 Julie

beam. In other words, you know, 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's who

this man, 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 murdered.

But of course, you know, he conveyed that what had happened,

he said that he had been murdered these that he had killed the seven

and then one of them must have finally killed him. And then he

said, and he said this beautifully, two to three times

it's reported in the Hadith. He said, have a mini while an admin

who had a mini what an admin who, repeating this so that every

single person there, saw what the process is, and was conveying that

you all all of you at some point, thought this man is nothing, but

he is from me, and I am from him, right? We are the same, in 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 as a person, the problem was that I picked him up by his own

arms. He didn't need anybody else. And if you've ever been been

around a funeral procession or anything like that, you know, it's

not actually very, it's not easy to pick up someone but that's how

small he was that he was able to lift him. And he placed him in the

ground, he dug his grave, He buried him himself. And and that

was, you know, the story that I think, to me anyway, I'm one of

many that conveys really love in so many different ways, so many

forms of love, right? Because, again, if you look at this

beautiful girl, sister, we don't know again, her name, who is

demonstrating to all of us that when you truly love and understand

who the prophesy centum is, then you don't question his guidance
