So Uthman Abdi Affan
the hero that we are speaking about today.
He was a man who spent so much
of his wealth,
that nobody
could compete with him
quantity wise.
We spoke about percentage wise. Percentage wise, number
1 was Abu Bakr. As Siddiq
He gave 100% of what he had. But
quantity wise, rich man is Uthman ibn Affan.
Let's look at what happened during the battle
of Tabuk, just prior to the battle of
Tabuk. The Prophet
sent a message to Makkah, and he got
up on the mimber in Madinah Munawara, and
he asked for donations towards the battle of
Tabuk.
And the sahabah
started coming with their various donations.
And here comes, Uthman Abi Affan
It is interesting how mention has been made
of this in so many narrations.
Some of them take the figure,
bringing it as highest to a 1000 animals
that Uthman Abni Affan
brought. 9
50 camels all at once.
Subhanallah!
9 50 camels and 50 horses.
They say,
1 third of the entire expense of that
entire army
was provided by 1 man. And his name
was Uthman Abni Affan
As humble as he was, he did not
speak unnecessarily.
He was a quiet person. He was not
one of the big lecturers. He had few
words, but he was a humble man. So
generous he was. On top of that, he
brought one
1,000 gold coins, and placed them in the
laps of Muhammad
Uthmanab Ni Affan. Muhammad
This was his son-in-law,
his son-in-law. And he was so happy that
he said,
Nothing will harm Uthman, from whatever he does
after today. He will still have paradise.
Subhanallah.
