Mr. Lohana Heyman 100 little bit I mean was there was someone that was holding him home Eduardo early. He was so happy here's mine was set up with a steam when cathedral cathedral marble Subhanallah and mana Ilana alimta, in Nikka Antonio Hakeem rubbish chalet Saturday we're silly Emery will have the misogyny of the holy. So
we are continuing with our series. We've had a brief pause in the middle in which was one week I was going for Omaha last week had come back. I was here but on Tuesday night we briefly talked about the Umrah journey and suffer that we had and I had an Hamdulillah. So this week we're we are continuing where we left off from and where we are finishing one part of this series, which is the caretakers of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. We know that one of the people who took care of the Prophet alayhi salam was his own mother Halima, I mean, Amina. Then you had another woman who took care of the Prophet sallallahu. It was send them by the name of Halima Saudi Arabia. You had some
other women who took care of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and now we come to the last person who took care of the Prophet alayhi salam, her name was Baraka. Now, when we talk about Baraka out of all the women who took care of the Prophet sallallahu it was setting them even though Baraka was not considered as the mother of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but yet she took care of the Prophet Allah has some the most out of anyone during his entire life. And so, first of all, we know that in the beginning life of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the problematic Islam was transferred from the care of his mother to the care of Halima Sadia, where he stayed for a
few years. And then he was brought back and he stayed under the supervision of his mother, but now more than two to three years, and when they traveled to Medina, on the way, coming back to Makkah, she felt she felt ill and she passed away in that journey. So we know that a Baraka was the one who took care of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Baraka mentioned that I was not with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam, from the day he was born, but I was actually with the parents. Before the Prophet SAW Allah while he was some even came into this world. And Baraka mentions, you know, several times many instances, that initially when she came to my case, she was honored that
she was in the household of Abdullah, the father of a * Allahu alayhi wa sallam. Likewise, his mother Amnon, it said that two weeks, I mean, two months after, in fact, two weeks after the Prophet sallallahu, it was sounds parents were married, it said that the Muslim came to his son Abdullah, and ordered him that he had to go on a business journey. This was very frustrating for Amina the mother of the Prophet alayhi salam. And she sort of objected to the motto Live, that it has only been two weeks we have been married, the henna on my hand has not even faded away, meaning that not that much time has elapsed since we have been married. And now you are telling your son to
leave me and to go on a journey. And you have to understand that when we talk about the journeys at that time, we're not talking about one week, two weeks, we're talking about few months at a time. So nonetheless, even though I'm in a was frustrated at this, yet she had to fulfill the order and she had to agree with the agree with the decision and the order of Aden Muttalib and therefore, the father of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam ala goes on this journey. It said that during this time, Baraka will she will say that I will sleep at the feet of Amina the mother of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam, and during these times, while her husband was gone away on these
journeys, she would, she would weep, and she would, you know, she would express her grief, time after time, because she would miss her husband. It said that one day, while she was going through this phase of grief and sorrow, and once again, we're not talking about grief and sorrow because her husband has passed away. Her husband is simply only on a journey. But he said that one day she woke up and she informed Baraka that I see I saw a dream and she says that what dream did you see? And she says that I saw a light
coming out from within me, coming out from me, lighting up the mountains and the hills and the valleys of Makkah. And to this Baraka she, she was very happy to hear this. And then she asked the mother of the prophet that Do you are you expecting a child? Are you pregnant? And she says, Yes, I am. But she says that this is a unique type of pregnancy. This is a this child that I'm expecting and I have in my, in my womb, it is very different. Because I know when I see other women carrying their child within themselves, the amount of pain that they experience, I'm not experiencing any type of pain carriers who also Allahu Allah send them within myself. Now, it said that as time went
on, Abdullah, he did come back, but then later on, he went, and they said that one day, this was on another journey, that the the people they came back from the business trip, and everyone who came back, except for Abdullah, except for Abdullah and that is when they went to the house of other Multilib to ask him to inquire about Abdullah both Amina and Baraka. And I'm gonna hopefully inform both of them that as soon as I get some news, I will let you know. It said that later on that evening, when Baraka was at the house of Aden Muttalib. In he said that right now, I mean, as not there on the look, they received the news that his son has passed away. And she says Baraka says
that as soon as I got this message, first of all within myself, I gave out sort of like a likely scream out of anguish, because a bla has passed away. By the same time she says that I could not imagine what would be the feeling and the expression and the emotional roller coaster that Amina will go through once I inform her or when she is informed that Abdullah has passed away. When she was informed, of course, she was devastated. She was extremely devastated. And she did not know how to deal with this. And it said that for so many days, she was just she was attached to the bed, not knowing what to do, because we're here we have a young woman who has lost her husband and they had
not been married for a long time. So it said that now that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the Prophet Allah Islam, now before even before this time, as we all know that the Prophet Allah His son was born in the year that the historians they refer to the year as arm will feel the year of the elephant. And the reason they refer to this year as the year of the elephants, is because that was the year that Abraham made an attempt to come and destroy the Kaaba, of course, we all know, in the light of certain field along the Rocky River for Allah rabuka was having failed, he failed in his attempt and in his mission. So he said that that year or during that incident, I've
been Muttalib came to Amina and said to her that I advise you that you leave, and you go somewhere else to live for the next few days, because you have to remember that other Multilib had already come in contact with Abraha, he had already come in contact with, with Abraha. And it was because that Abraha has seized the camels of other motorists, when other motive came to Abraha to retrieve, retrieve his camels, or to get back his camels. He said that I am the owner of the camels, and that's why I am concerned about the camels. However, the one who is the owner of the house, he will be taking care of his own home. So behind Allah, I mean, what an amazing statement that was made by
I'll don't look for him. But he was nonetheless he was aware of his power and the strength that he's coming inside to inside Makkah with and therefore he informed Amina, but I'm gonna Of course she was already upset and she was already expecting a child. She refused to move and she refused to, to go and relocate briefly at the orders of the mother lives simply saying that she had so much trust in the dream that she has seen regarding this son that she's about to give birth to that she said that there is nothing that can harm this child. And at the same time, nothing could come and harm the sacred place which is called the Kaaba and so therefore, she stayed. She remained steadfast in her
place, and she never moved. And now it said that, of course, after all this,
you know, Abraham is defeated and after months, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was born. We all know that what happened at the time when he was born. It said that Baraka was the very first woman to care to pick up the sloths, Allahu alayhi wa sallam, in her hands. And we're talking about a baby at this time. We're talking about a baby right now. Baraka is really young herself, and it said that as the years passed by, Baraka stayed with Amina the mother.
oversaw Allahu alayhi wa sallam, even at the time when the Prophet alayhi salam was not with Amina, later on when the Prophet alayhi salam was returned to Amina, even at that time she was with Amina, and she was with Amina on the journey to Makkah, and she was with Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, when she came back with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Baraka was also the person who buried Amina the mother of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam, and they said that right before they passed away, right before she actually passed away, Amina the mother of the Prophet alayhi salam, she actually called baraka and I informed her that my sickness has increased. And I
don't it doesn't seem to me that I will be able to get through this. And therefore I'm putting my son in your care and remember that he lost his father before he was born. And now he's losing his mother and he has no one to look after him. It becomes your responsibility that you have to look after him. Now we know that after that, a Baraka was the one who buried Amina, and you can imagine what a six year old child like Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the emotional state that he is going through while seeing his mother being buried. You can imagine when we talk about Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam going through sacrifices, without any doubt there is no one who has gone
through more sacrifices than Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam for a six year old child to be to see his own mother being buried is not an easy thing. So she's so he sees this. He understands what's going on. He understands that I don't have any parents I'm now an orphan. And this is why Allah Subhana Allah to Allah in the Quran, and Sunnah Doha he referred to this he says LM LM Yejide que te man for our he referred to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam as a team. Baraka then brings the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam all the way to Makkah. The Prophet alayhi salam is now under the care of Abu Talib. Even during that time, Baraka is with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam during those two years. The Prophet Ellingson was absolutely fine again, two years later, he loses his grandfather and grandfather now of the Muttalib. And now he comes under the care of upon him while his care is being transferred to to Bhutan and his uncle, so is baraka. She goes and she begins to live with Abu Talib and she lives with the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam with Abu Talib, until the day comes, that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is married. When the Prophet Allah is some gets married to Khadija or the Allah Tala and Ha, they move out and so does Baraka, she also moves out. Now it came a time that hadith Allah, the Allah Allah, Allah, Allah and
knowing very well, who this woman is, and what she represents and how much she cared for US law. So Allahu alayhi wa sallam, out of care, she advised Omar, she advised Baraka that if an marriage opportunity comes your way, then you should not turn it down. It said that a marriage opportunity came her way. She was married to a person by the name of obeyed, obeyed. In Baraka, they got married, and they moved from Makkah to yesterday, which is currently in Medina. Over there they had a son by the name of Amon. And thus after that time, this woman Baraka she was always referred as OMA Amon. She was always referred as OMA Awan because she had a son by the name of Amon.
Nonetheless, her husband passed away. And she goes, she comes back to Makkah to live with Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam along with her son, Amon. Now, he said that, during the years in Makkah, we all know that the Quraysh they were, you know, they were trying to stop Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, they were standing as the key opposition in the way of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, in spreading his mission. And he said that one night, they had closed off the area, in order to avoid or refrain anyone from coming to the zoo so long while he was sending him. Khadija of your waterline had needed to get a message to us was Allahu alayhi wa sallam. So what she
did was that she sent OMA Amon or baraka to get his message to those who also Allahu Allah, He will send them only a man or Baraka, knowing her way around Makkah, she was able to get to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and when she came to the Prophet of Allah, Allah he's salaam, the Prophet alayhi salam said that if any of you wishes to marry a woman of Jannah, then they should marry this woman. And he pointed at a man and he said that after that zayde or the allotter line, the adopted son was also Allahu alayhi wa sallam, he married a man and they had a child by the name of Osama bin
unseated they had a child with Osama bin Zayed now this child was on bin Zayed. We will talk about him later on in sha Allah. When we talk about this, the Sahaba was in sha Allah, but he was extremely Dear to those who also Allah who it was sent him for two reasons. Number one because of her because of his father Zaid ze was the adopted son of Rasulullah salAllahu alayhi wasallam, and he chose to stay with Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, despite his father and his uncle coming to Makkah and trying to take him back. He chose Rasulullah sallallahu ala he was in our family. This was extremely dear to the salsa, Allahu alayhi wa sallam and that is why the Prophet
Allah Islam he adopted him as his son. The second reason was because of Baraka because of OMEGAMON are Baraka, a woman who took care of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam so much. That is why he said that, after their marriage, when the property is on migrated to Medina is said that he left behind Zaidan a man in Makkah to make their way to Medina Subhan Allah when they came into Medina and the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he saw
a man he did not refer to her as Omen, amen. But he referred to her yet as Yeah Oh, me Oh, my mother, because she was a woman who took care of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam so much. So he said that over a month, she stayed with Rasul Allah, so Allah I mean, she was of course, very close Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, her and Zaid had a son but unable to sub in Zaid, extremely beloved adhere to those who also Allahu alayhi wa sallam. It said that
her son, OMA Amen. He was of course he was part of the Muslims. She he passed away in the eighth year after hitting it off. It said that she has OMA Amon herself. She contributed to the welfare of Islam. He said that in the Battle of hide when the Muslims were under severe attack, it said that she would bring water to all the the wounded Sahaba Rhodiola. Delano and to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So once again, it was not just a woman, but a woman who gave her services for the sake of Islam and she was always there for us Allah sallahu alayhi wa sallam, it said that Zeto the Ultra and her husband passed away later on in the one and the expedition called the expedition of
Muda. And later on the she passed away, and you know, she, as a Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that she is a woman of Paradise because she took care of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So Subhanallah we see that, you know, just to summarize all this, and just, you know, a few concluding remarks is that a woman like baraka and or OMA, a man took so much care of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam, that this was her contribution to Islam, for someone to take care of the Prophet sallallahu it was set up to help the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to grow up into a mature man, and a man of dignity a man of honor. There's, as they say, in English, that there's
always a woman behind every single man. And this was the woman who was behind Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Yes, there was there was a woman by the name of Amina, there was another woman by the name of Halima Assadi, but the woman who gave her life for us, Lhasa, La Jolla. So and think about this once again, she was a very first woman to carry on as well. So Allah while he was in her hand, and she also survived, beyond the death of Ursula Salah Hardy was, so she was someone who witnessed the entire life of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Not only that, but she gave her services to Islam. So in sha Allah, may Allah subhanaw taala give us the ability to take lessons and
take, take heed from these great individuals who who helped our dean who helped our cause who helped us to Lhasa Allahu alayhi wa sallam, we pray to Allah subhanaw taala that he gives us the ability to give. He gives us the ability to provide our services to our deen in sha Allah. And we now conclude this series, which is called the caretakers of the Sol Sol Allahu alayhi wa sallam. Inshallah, starting next week, we will start with the Sahaba of Yolanda line whom we will not start exactly with the qualifier regime, because the qualified Rashid in their lives are in great detail, but we'll start with some other Sahabas who are first of all be considered as the Mahajan rune, then
we'll get to some of the unsalted companions. And sometimes in the middle here and there, we will talk about some of the Sahaba yet the women's Sahaba, who existed during the time of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Once again, the purpose of all these stories is to first of all give us an inspiration that how much these people helped Islam, and hopefully this will create an awareness within us and hopefully a zeal.
within us, that as me individually each one of us how these people gave to Islam. And now comes my turn that I need to now give for the sake of Islam may Allah subhanaw taala give all of us ability to act upon who has been sending her does that Kim Allah Subhan Allah we humbly Subhana Allah who will be hunting nationally we're learning to in Santa Ana Staffie Luca wanted to be exactly on the height Assam Are you going to live
