00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			Dear brothers and sisters, InshaAllah Ta'ala, as we
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:14
			get into
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			these last few biographies
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			prior to Dhul Hijjah, may Allah allow us
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			to witness it. May Allah give an accepted
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			Hajj to all of those that are going,
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			accept their du'as on behalf of our brothers
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			and sisters in
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:27
			and beyond. May
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			Allah accept everyone's Ibadat,
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			everyone's acts of worship in that month, Allahum
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:33
			Amin.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			I wanted
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:37
			to kind of summarize at this point now,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			the family of the Prophet
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			coming back to him
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			after Fathuh Makkah. Obviously, you had from the
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			family of the Prophet
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			those that are considered from Assaabihun al Awloon,
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			the first Muslims, the first to embrace Islam.
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			And then you have those that held out
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			until the very end
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			and embraced Islam on Fatiha Mecca with some
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			of the most severe enemies of the Prophet
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. Of course, some of
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			them who were enemies to the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:06
			alaihi wa sallam themselves, such as Abu Sufyan
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			ibn Harith, the brother of the Prophet Sallallahu
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			Alaihi Wasallam who we spoke about. You have
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			some that were indifferent,
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			but they eventually came around again at the
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			end, and the Prophet was so happy to
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			have them. Hakim Nuhizam
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			You have some like the mother of the
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:22
			Prophet
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:23
			Halima
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:24
			Sadia
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:28
			who was out in the desert when this
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			entire affair was taking place
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:32
			and Islam came to her at the end
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:33
			of her life and the prophet SallAllahu Alaihi
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			Wasallam was able to find comfort and joy
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:39
			in giving Shahada now to the woman
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			that gave him milk and nursed him when
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			no one else would when he was a
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:46
			child, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. And so the last
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			2 that we're going to cover
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			are the last 2 uncles of the prophet
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam that we haven't spoken
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			about in detail just yet.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			You had Abu Lahab,
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			you had Abu Talib,
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			you had Al Abbas,
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			you had Hamza.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			Right? So Abu Lahab,
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			obviously, is the one that we're going to
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			focus on tonight in terms of his family
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:19
			and what would become of the family that
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			he left behind after
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:24
			his notorious enmity of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:25
			Wasallam.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28
			Abu Talib, who protected the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30
			Wasallam and tried to shield him even as
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:33
			he hadn't embraced his dua in Mecca, still
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			protecting the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and serving
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			a fatherly role. Al Abbas
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			becomes Muslim later on, we'll talk about him
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			in detail next week, who tries to step
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			into the role of Abu Talib and protect
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			the prophet
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:48
			after the death of Abu Talib, though he
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:51
			is not to the seniority of Abu Talib.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:53
			And then finally, Hamza
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56
			who was the brother of the prophet
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			as well as the uncle of the prophet
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:02
			closest to him in age, who embraces Islam,
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:04
			the only uncle to make hijrah with him
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			and then to be killed as a martyr,
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			to be martyred on the day of Uhud
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:11
			So the only uncle
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			that was hostile to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			Wasallam was Abu Lahab.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			And the sad thing about this is that
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:20
			Abu Lahab
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:23
			arguably was the closest to the Prophet
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:28
			in terms of playing that fatherly figure role
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			before Islam. There is a deep relationship
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:34
			between Abu Lahab and between the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:36
			alaihi wa sallam, and so the pain that
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:38
			will be caused by the rejection of Abu
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:39
			Lahab is severe.
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:42
			Now the title for tonight is the Muslim
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:43
			family of Abu Lahab.
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			But before we talk about the Muslim family
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			of Abu Lahab, we're gonna talk about Abu
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:50
			Lahab. We're gonna talk about his wife. We're
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:51
			going to talk about
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			his descendant who doesn't embrace Islam. And that
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			will give us some perspective into the lives
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			of those that did embrace Islam.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:01
			And one thing that I'll tell you, SubhanAllah,
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:04
			is that no one's life in this family
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05
			ends normally.
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			Everybody has a very dramatic exit
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12
			from this dunya into the akhirah. It's stunning,
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			SubhanAllah, when you start to study
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			each and every single one of their exits
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:18
			from this dunya, may Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:21
			give us a good exit and allow our
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			good exit to be a welcoming from the
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam into the next realm,
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:28
			Allama Ameen. So let's talk about Abu Lahab,
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:31
			the uncle of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			He's about 20 years or so older than
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:37
			the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:40
			So he is a fatherly figure as well
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:42
			as an uncle, and we've already established this
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:43
			idea that Al Amr
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:46
			that the paternal uncle is like Al Warl,
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			is like the father as the Prophet SallAllahu
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			Alaihi Wasallam said.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:50
			And when the
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			Prophet was born, of course,
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:54
			he did not have his father
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			Right? His father had passed away
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:00
			while he was still in the womb of
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:00
			Aminah.
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:04
			And this man steps into the picture, and
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			we only know him for the scorn
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:09
			that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			has scorns him with in the Quran
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:15
			in Juzamah read so frequently by all of
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:16
			us. But Abu Lahab
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:18
			doesn't exactly fit
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:21
			the image that's often given to him
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			in the movies. Right? Now, obviously, when there
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:25
			are movies about the Sahaba,
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:26
			the villains
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			always look like villains,
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			and the heroes look like heroes.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			Right? The image of the hero, the image
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:35
			of the villain matches
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:39
			what would bring out the greatest emotion, what
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:39
			would dramatize
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			how we see these figures around the prophet
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:45
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. But Abu Lahab does
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:46
			not fit
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			the image
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:49
			that is given to him in many of
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:50
			these movies and many of these popular
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			references. So who is he?
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			His name is actually
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:58
			So the father of the Prophet
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:00
			was Abdullah
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			ibn Abdul Muttalib. He is Abdul izah
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:06
			ibn Abdul Muttalib. Abdul izah, obviously,
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:10
			in dedication to the idol, Al Uzza, the
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:11
			slave of Al Uzza.
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:13
			He was
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:14
			a stunningly
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:16
			handsome man.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:18
			Immediately,
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:20
			you know, deflates,
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			some of the imagery that you have,
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:26
			of the man. Extremely handsome. In fact, even
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:29
			when he's described in the most unflattering accounts
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			by those who came from Mecca and saw
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			or came into Mecca and saw him doing
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			what he was doing,
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:36
			they were struck by his appearance.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:37
			Very handsome man,
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:39
			very intelligent,
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:42
			wealthy, well put together, well dressed. And just
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:43
			side note here,
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:45
			all of the uncles of the Prophet SAW
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:47
			Allahu Alaihi Wasallam are described with a similar
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:47
			description.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			Right? Of course, the Messenger of Allah SAW
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:51
			Allahu Alaihi Wasallam was the most beautiful
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			creation that you would see. His uncles are
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:55
			all described as being exceedingly handsome.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:59
			Abu Lahab is no exception to that. He
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:00
			was handsome, he commanded
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:04
			a great respect because of his tribe. So
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:05
			he's from Banu Hashim.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:09
			He's also exceedingly wealthy. So he's got the
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11
			lineage. He has the wealth. He he has
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:12
			the appearance,
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:15
			he has everything in society, in that pagan
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			society, in that Qurashi society
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:19
			that would cause him to succeed.
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:21
			He's described
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			as having a glowing
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:25
			face. Now, by the way, when they say
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:27
			not all Nur is the same, not all
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:28
			light is the same,
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:29
			Right?
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			Abu Lahab, which means the father of the
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:34
			flame, was actually his nickname before Islam.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:37
			Why? Because the flame, they said he had
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:40
			reddish cheeks, he had a glow from his
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:40
			face,
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:42
			and of course that's something that was appealing
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:44
			to the Arabs, the reddish face. Right? He
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			had a brightness, a glow,
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:48
			of iman, not the light of faith,
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:50
			but he was handsome.
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:53
			And some people's names were flipped when they
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:56
			rejected the prophet and some people's names simply
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:57
			took on another dimension.
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			So Abu Hakem, the father of wisdom became
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			Abu Jahal, the father of ignorance.
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:05
			Abu Lahab, the father of the flame became
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08
			the father of another flame which is hellfire.
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:11
			Right? So what was a positive nickname becomes
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:14
			a negative nickname for him, but he was
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:16
			described by his appearance, which tells you a
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:18
			little bit about how he was. He used
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			to wear a famous,
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22
			cloak from Adam from from Yemen.
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:25
			He was described as being very generous towards
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:25
			the pilgrims.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:30
			And in his generosity, which was boasting and
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			not from a place of sincerity,
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:34
			Abu Lahab
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:36
			gained a reputation of generosity.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:38
			How does he come into the life of
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam?
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:42
			I take you back to a few weeks
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			ago when we describe
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			that moment where Aminah
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:49
			gave birth to the Messenger of
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:50
			Allah Sallallahu
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:51
			Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:54
			Abu Lahab
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:57
			loved his brother, Abdullah, the father of the
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:02
			And he too was grieving over the untimely
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:04
			death of Abdullah, and there isn't much in
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:06
			terms of years between him and Abdullah.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:08
			Right? The father of the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:10
			Wasallam. They're very close in age.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			They grew up together.
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:15
			And so, of course, Abdullah died without even
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			knowing that his wife Amina was pregnant with
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:18
			the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			And when Amina
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:24
			gave birth to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:25
			Subhaiba
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:29
			becomes Muslim later on,
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:32
			was a servant in that house. She went
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			to Abu Lahab to tell Abu Lahab, the
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:35
			uncle,
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:38
			that your nephew has just been born.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:41
			Abu Lahab out of joy over the birth
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:44
			of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam freed Fawaybah
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			Radiallahu Ta'ala Anha from slavery,
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:50
			Was so joyous, he sacrificed,
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:51
			he celebrated.
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:55
			He saw the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:58
			as an extension of his beloved brother, Abdullah.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:00
			And
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:02
			as time goes on,
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			the closeness between the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:06
			and Abu Lahab
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:10
			is in every single way in terms of
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			business, in terms of caring for the prophet
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13
			sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:16
			He was the neighbor of the prophet sallallahu
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:19
			alaihi wasallam. And when I say the neighbor
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam, I don't
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:23
			just mean that they lived in the same
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:25
			neighborhood and there was any distance. They actually
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:27
			shared a wall.
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:29
			So when you think about the closeness,
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			they shared a wall.
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:34
			So, I mean, if you think about how
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:36
			the exchanges between those two families,
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:39
			they are as tight as they come.
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:42
			2 of the sons of Abu Lahab, who
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:45
			we're gonna speak about, are engaged to 2
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:47
			daughters of the Prophet
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:51
			By all accounts, this is supposed to be
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:53
			a beautiful relationship
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:55
			of 2 families that are coming together, and
		
00:10:55 --> 00:10:57
			we're gonna talk about the full family
		
00:10:57 --> 00:10:59
			of Abu Lahab.
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:00
			His wife,
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:02
			her name is Jamil
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:06
			Arwa Bint Harb. Arwa Bint Harb.
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:09
			Who can tell me who she's the sister
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:09
			of?
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:12
			Abu Sufyan ibn Harb.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			Right? So she's Abu Sufyan's
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:15
			sister.
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			Not the Abu Sufyan, the brother of the
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:20
			Prophet Abu Sufyan ibn Harif because we've distinguished
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:22
			those 2. Abu Sufyan, the chief enemy of
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:25
			the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam to come, right?
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:26
			That's his sister.
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:27
			Okay?
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:28
			Now,
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:31
			the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:33
			comes out on that day
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:35
			to proclaim,
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:39
			to call out to his closest relatives, to
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:41
			call them to Islam.
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:43
			And when the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:46
			Wasallam stands on a Safa, he calls out,
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:46
			You
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			which was a cry of an enemy that
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:51
			was approaching.
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:55
			Something severe is happening. Something severe is happening.
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:58
			The family of the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:11:58 --> 00:11:59
			his relatives, all
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:01
			surround Asafaa
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:04
			to hear what the messenger of Allah SallAllahu
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:07
			is going to say.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:10
			When the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam calls them
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:11
			to Islam,
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:14
			I can't emphasize enough
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:16
			how history could have changed
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:19
			if his uncle responded to him differently.
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			Right? When the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:23
			introduces
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:26
			Islam to these people after they just affirmed,
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:30
			you are the trustworthy one, you are the
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:30
			honest one,
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:33
			When the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam starts
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:34
			with that call, you know, if you ever
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:36
			see the pictures or the videos of entire
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:37
			tribes entering Islam,
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:38
			naturally,
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:42
			those of Banu Hashim look towards
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:43
			their elders.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:47
			So if Abu Lahab, his neighbor,
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:50
			who is to be the father-in-law of his
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:52
			2 precious daughters alaihis salatu wa salam
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:54
			says, You
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:58
			My blood is your blood. My money is
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			your money. I'm going to support you and
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:01
			follow you. We believe in you. Go forth.
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:03
			If Abu Lahab
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:05
			says, we believe in you,
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:07
			the entire
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:09
			episode changes.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:12
			But Abu Lahab
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:14
			calls out to the Prophet
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:17
			and he curses him with the lowest curse
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:18
			in that
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:19
			society,
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:21
			may you perish, O Muhammad.
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:24
			Now, by the way, that is equivalent to
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:25
			the worst curse word that you could think
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:26
			about in the English language.
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			Okay. Tabun Laka You Muhammad.
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:31
			And he says, Alihatha
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			Jama'atana,
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:36
			is this what you gathered us for?
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:38
			You want us to turn all of these
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:40
			gods into 1 God?
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:42
			You want us to turn all of these
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:45
			gods into 1 God? And there are multiple
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:48
			narrations about how this how this conversation then
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:50
			takes place. But when he says that,
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:53
			he takes the air out of the room
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:55
			figuratively, right? Like, woah.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:58
			And everyone else walks away from the Prophet
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:00
			except for Adi
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:02
			and who was a child. He says, I
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:03
			will follow you, You Rasool Allah.
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:06
			But Abu Lahab was the one
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:07
			who started
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:09
			the turning of society
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:11
			against the prophet
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			Abu Lahab is a businessman. He rejected the
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:17
			Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam on the basis of
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:19
			money. He said, we make money off of
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:22
			these gods. We sell these gods. The pilgrims
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:24
			come from all over. Everyone makes money off
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:26
			of these idols. I am a man of
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			commerce. How is it that you're gonna turn
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:30
			it all into one invisible God? It doesn't
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:33
			make sense financially. It's not a good business
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:33
			decision.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:35
			That's what he's saying to the prophet, I
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:38
			can't hear anything else that you're saying because
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:40
			you're taking away our commerce. Right? I always
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:43
			tell people think of Abu Lahab not as,
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:45
			you know, like Captain Hook, if any of
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:45
			you remember
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:47
			imagery. Think of Abu Lahab as like a
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49
			guy from Wall Street.
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:52
			Alright? Suit, tie, really cleaned up.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:55
			Right? No. No. No. No. This this is
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			a bad business decision. I hate this. And
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			he even says to the prophet,
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			you know, in in some of the subsequent
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:02
			conversations,
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			he says, if you can't put it in
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:07
			my hand, it doesn't exist.
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:11
			Right? And there are multiple tafasir of
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:14
			He says, what you're promising me is as
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:16
			empty as these hands, and he
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:19
			blows on his hands, he says,
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:23
			I see nothing of what you're promising us.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			It's as empty as my empty hands right
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:27
			now. And Allah says, you and your hands
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:27
			will perish.
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:30
			You and your hands
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:31
			will perish.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:33
			In one narration, in the Qurtubi, he said
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:35
			to the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:37
			What do I get if I embrace Islam?
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:40
			The Prophet said, You get what every Muslim
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:40
			gets.
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42
			Abu Lahab said,
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:44
			So you're trying to bring a religion to
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46
			your uncle that will put him on the
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			same level as all of them?
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:50
			That's what you're giving me? No, no. I
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:53
			need my leverage. I need my money. I
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:54
			need my profit
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:56
			with an f.
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:58
			Hates the Prophet
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:00
			from that day on and the humiliation and
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:01
			the abuse
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:02
			starts.
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:03
			His wife,
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:06
			Jameel Arwa bint Harb.
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:10
			Imam Ahmad Rahimullah narrates his Musnat from Jundub
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:10
			ibn Abdullah
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:12
			that the Prophet
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:13
			became ill,
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:16
			and he was unable to stand up for
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:18
			prayer for a night or 2. Now imagine,
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20
			they're next to the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:22
			they can hear his qiyam at night with
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:22
			Khadija
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			And so they didn't hear him standing up
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:27
			and praying
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:29
			for a few nights.
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:32
			And Jamil comes to him and says to
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:32
			him,
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:38
			Where is that devil that descends upon you?
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:42
			I see that your demon has abandoned you.
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:45
			And that was the revelation of
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:52
			Allah swears
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:55
			that your lord has not abandoned you. Your
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:57
			lord has not forgotten you. Your lord has
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:00
			not forsaken you. Your Lord has not become
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			repulsed by you. Your Lord is here. Allah
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:04
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala is with you.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:07
			When the initial
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:10
			verbal insult didn't work,
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:13
			they then went to the next level, which
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:14
			was the physical abuse of the Prophet
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:17
			And Jamil,
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:19
			whose nickname
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21
			is Hammaratul Hatab,
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:23
			the one who carries the firewood,
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:24
			she
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:26
			is the person
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:28
			who literally takes it upon herself
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:31
			to harass the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam every
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:34
			time he exits from his home, Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			So what should what would she do? Ashoka
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:42
			She would place actual physical thorns like spikes
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:44
			and stuff outside of the house of the
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:46
			Prophet So imagine the Prophet when he gets
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:48
			out of his door, he has to step
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:49
			over
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:50
			the spikes.
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53
			Right? Like he literally has to avoid
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:56
			the harmful things that she's going out of
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:58
			her way to put in front of the
		
00:17:58 --> 00:17:58
			door of the Prophet
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:01
			On top of that,
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:05
			she and Abu Lahab would take
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			the guts of animals,
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:09
			the waste of animals,
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:12
			and they there are 2 narrations as to
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:13
			what they would do. They put it in
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:14
			front of his door, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			and they put it on top of his
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:17
			door. Why on top of his door? I
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:19
			mean, it gets really nasty, but I want
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:20
			you to have an image.
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:23
			That every time the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			would open his door, what was on top
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:26
			of the door would fall on him Sallallahu
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:27
			Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:30
			And then on top of that, like, think
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:31
			about psychologically,
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:32
			your own uncle,
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:35
			your uncle, who's like a father figure to
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:36
			you, who's doing this to you.
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:39
			And on top of that, like, not only
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:40
			has this filth fallen on top of you,
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:42
			now you gotta step over this the the
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:42
			spikes
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:44
			and the thorns
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:47
			and all of that that's been placed along
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:48
			the way. On top of that,
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:51
			it's also narrated that she used to strangle
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:51
			the Prophet
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:52
			at times.
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:54
			This is like his aunt.
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:57
			So she would take this rope, she'd put
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:59
			it around the neck of the Prophet SAWS-eleven,
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:00
			and she'd chug it this way.
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:03
			Right? And it had some thorns on it,
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:05
			so it would leave marks on the Messenger
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:06
			of Allah,
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:06
			Sallallahu
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:08
			Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11
			I'm giving you a picture of the parents,
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:13
			Abu Lahab and Jamil, because we know that
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:15
			their ending is not good.
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:18
			One of the things that they used to
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:20
			put in front of the door was
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:24
			was like a particular type of filth,
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:25
			and the prophet
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			appealed to the senses of Quraysh, the sensibilities
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:30
			of Quraysh sometimes.
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:31
			So he said,
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:36
			What type of a neighbor is this, O
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:37
			Banu Abdul Muttalib?
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			People who claim to honor your neighbors. Is
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:43
			this how a neighbor is supposed to be
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:45
			treated? Is this how a relative is supposed
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:46
			to be treated?
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:48
			So here's the thing, Abu Talib,
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:50
			Abbas,
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:52
			Hamza, they're not Muslim yet.
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:55
			Right? But they still they're trying to protect
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:56
			their nephew. Like, this is at the end
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:58
			of the day family. We don't treat family
		
00:19:58 --> 00:20:00
			like this, and they're embarrassed because the prophet
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:00
			is
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:04
			talking about the betrayal of their values. This
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:06
			is aib on the family. It's shameful for
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:06
			the family.
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:08
			Right? And we know Hamzah
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			how he is with Abu Jahl, right, when
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			he smacks Abu Jahl,
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:14
			not even as a Muslim because how dare
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:17
			you treat my nephew that way? There's one
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:17
			narration
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:18
			that Hamzah
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:22
			heard the Prophet complaining. He comes out. He's
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:23
			not Muslim yet.
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:24
			And
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:26
			he says, What is it that you're talking
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:28
			about? The Prophet points to all the filth
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:29
			that Abu Lahab is putting on his door.
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:30
			Hamza
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:32
			takes it and he puts it on Abu
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:33
			Lahab.
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:35
			And Abu Lahab says, in akhirajulan
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:37
			majnoon, this brother of mine is a crazy
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:39
			man. He's a madman. Leave Hamza alone. Hamza
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:41
			is like, what are you doing? You're embarrassing
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:41
			us.
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:43
			Abu Lahab
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:44
			says,
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:49
			I've freed myself from you. I've freed myself
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:51
			from him. He's basically denouncing all of his
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:53
			brothers. I denounce Muhammad
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:55
			and I denounce all of those that protect
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:56
			the Prophet
		
00:20:57 --> 00:20:59
			Now he takes it to the next level.
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:01
			He goes to his sons.
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:03
			He says,
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:12
			My head is forbidden from your head. Basically,
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:13
			I'm disowning you.
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:16
			Our lineage is cut if you don't divorce
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:18
			the daughters of Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:20
			Now an important,
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:23
			important distinction to be made here.
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:25
			Rutba,
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:26
			Rutba,
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:28
			who's the oldest son
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:30
			of Abu Lahab and the closest in age
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:31
			to the Prophet
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:33
			extremely close in age to the prophet
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:35
			Utbah
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:38
			seems to have been a little bit hesitant
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:39
			and that's why some of the narrations
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:42
			Abu Lahab is particularly talking to Urutba to
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:44
			say, if you don't divorce
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:45
			Ruqayyah,
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:48
			the daughter of the Prophet then basically I'm
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:49
			disowning you.
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:53
			Right? Either way, Abu Lahab says you both
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:54
			need to divorce
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:56
			the 2 daughters of the Prophet
		
00:21:57 --> 00:21:57
			Ruqaiyah
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:01
			and Qrthun, may Allah be pleased with them.
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:02
			Rutba,
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:06
			again, there is no narration about the way
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:08
			that he actually divorces Ruqayya,
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:09
			Right?
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:12
			Simply that it's devastating to the Prophet I
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:14
			mean, do you imagine, by the way,
		
00:22:14 --> 00:22:15
			Rasulullah
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:18
			the father, how much he loves his own
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:20
			children, how much he loves his daughters, the
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:21
			way he treats his daughters,
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:23
			and how the Prophet
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:27
			you know, chose these 2 noble men for
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:28
			his 2 daughters and thought that he was
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:30
			doing them right, and the guilt and the
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:32
			empathy and all that comes with that. Right?
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:34
			I'm the father of these 2 girls. I'm
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:36
			supposed to be the one protecting them, giving
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:37
			them a good future,
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:39
			giving them the best, and this is how
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:40
			you hurt the Prophet
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:43
			Rutba
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:47
			does not do anything except for divorce Ruqayah,
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:49
			and he's very close to the Prophet SallAllahu
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:51
			Alaihi Wasallam in age. Rutaybah
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:53
			is the name
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:55
			that you must remember.
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:58
			Rutaybah is the second son of Abu Lahab.
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:01
			He is engaged to Qursum,
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:03
			the daughter of the Prophet
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:06
			Rutayba makes a scene
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:08
			of this divorce.
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:11
			And again, put yourself in Mecca.
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:13
			You know what Abu Lahab does to the
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:15
			prophet You know what Umjameed does to the
		
00:23:15 --> 00:23:17
			prophet What does Retayba do?
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:19
			Retayba walks up to the prophet
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:21
			in public, his father-in-law,
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:23
			and he says,
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:33
			Oh, Muhammad, I have
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:35
			disbelieved in your religion.
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:38
			And he starts mocking the Quran, right? The
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:39
			star that you talk about. I disbelieve in
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:41
			all of it. He starts humiliating the prophet
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:43
			SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam, all this nonsense that you're
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:45
			talking about, and he makes poetry
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:47
			about that. And he says,
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:50
			and I'm divorcing
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:53
			your daughter. I'm separating myself from your daughter.
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:55
			I don't love you. You don't love me.
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:57
			I don't love her. She doesn't love me.
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:00
			She's done.
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:01
			And he takes a step further.
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:04
			Now, can you imagine someone talking to the
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:06
			prophet this way, your father-in-law? Like, again, just
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:08
			Arab morals at the time, like, what are
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:10
			you doing? But on top of that, he
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:11
			physically attacks the Prophet
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:14
			He tears his shirt,
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:16
			alayhis salatu waslam, and then he spits out
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:17
			the Prophet
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:28
			for you to treat him this way to
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:30
			manifest the ugliest,
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:32
			the ugliest behavior
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:33
			of your parents?
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:35
			The prophet
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:38
			did what he rarely did
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:41
			to people, but every time he did it,
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:42
			it was very impactful.
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:44
			When he did this to the Prophet
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:46
			the Prophet SallAllahu
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:46
			Alaihi
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:47
			Wasallam
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:49
			says,
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:52
			Oh Allah, set one of your dogs on
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:52
			him.
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:55
			O Allah, set one of your dogs on
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:56
			him. So the Prophet
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			made dua against Ir Tayba
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:00
			ibn Abillahab,
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:03
			the only child of Abu Lahab who gets
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:05
			a dua made against him by the Prophet
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:07
			But again, the way he treated the Prophet
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:12
			was very, very, very different, very ugly,
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:14
			right, in this divorce. Like, you could have
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:17
			went and, you know, maybe apologized and said,
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:18
			you know, my father is forcing me to
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:19
			do this, but to do it in this
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:22
			way is just further humiliation, physical abuse, again,
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:24
			taking away from the Prophet sallAllahu alaihi wa
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:25
			sallam in society.
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:28
			Now, SubhanAllah, there's a wisdom here as well.
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:30
			So we're gonna talk about Utaybah later on
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:32
			this Dua of the Prophet
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:34
			Ruqaiyah and Unkursum,
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:37
			who did they end up marrying?
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:40
			Uthman ibn Affan
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:44
			who was more handsome than the children of
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:44
			Abu Lahab,
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:47
			who was better, who had the most noble
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:48
			of character,
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:51
			who was more generous than Abu Lahab and
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:54
			his family. He manifested everything you would want
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:57
			in Jahiliyyah and everything you'd want in Islam
		
00:25:57 --> 00:25:58
			together. And the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:01
			married Ruqayya to Uthman radiAllahu ta'ala Anhu. Uthman
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:04
			made Hijrah to Abyssinia with Ruqayya, and then,
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:05
			of course, when Ruqayya died,
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:07
			he married Qrthoom
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:08
			to Ithman
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:11
			So what, you know,
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:16
			Those 2 women get to show up in
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:16
			Jannah
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:18
			as spouses of Ithman
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:21
			rather than having been buried down. And this
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:22
			is one of those Asa and Taqra who
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:23
			say, well, you
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:26
			might want something and
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:28
			or hate something and it's good for you
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:31
			or vice versa. Like, it obviously is devastating
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:34
			that this is happening, but instead of being
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:36
			married to Uthba and Uthayba, the children of
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:38
			Abu Lahab, you ended up being married to
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:39
			Ismail ibn Affam
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:43
			So these are 2 sons.
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:46
			Chance, would you mind putting up the chart
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:47
			really quick, Insha'Allah?
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:49
			I want to just give you a quick
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:51
			look at the rest of the children
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:53
			of Abu Lahab. Okay, great.
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:56
			Then you have Durwa
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:57
			bint Abi Lahab.
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:00
			Durwa bint Abi Lahab.
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:01
			Durwa
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:02
			was also
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:04
			engaged
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:07
			to Zayd ibn al Haritha
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:11
			And what was Zayd's name at the time?
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:14
			Zayd ibn Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. He's the
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:16
			son of He's the adopted son of the
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:18
			prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam. Remember, Hakim Al Khazam,
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:20
			who we spoke about last week, purchased Zayd
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:25
			gave him to Khadija. Khadija gave him
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:27
			to the prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam. The prophet
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:28
			SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam freed him and made him
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:29
			a son.
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:32
			So Zayd is also engaged to the daughter
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:34
			of Abu Lahab Dura bint Abi Lahab, and
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:36
			he breaks that off too. So it's it's
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:38
			3 broken engagements actually if you think about
		
00:27:38 --> 00:27:40
			it. Right? Not just 2. The 2 sons
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:43
			from the 2 daughters and the son of
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:45
			the prophet who at that time is the
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:46
			full son of the Prophet
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:49
			in terms of Jahiliya, Zayd ibn Muhammad,
		
00:27:50 --> 00:27:53
			divorced from Dura bint Abilahab. And then you
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:54
			have
		
00:27:57 --> 00:28:00
			Ibn Abilahab, who we're gonna come to as
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:00
			well.
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:02
			He's a younger one.
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:04
			And this young son
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:07
			is the one who, when the Prophet
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:08
			was
		
00:28:08 --> 00:28:10
			expelled from Makar when Hijrah happened,
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:13
			He is the one who confiscated the house
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:14
			of the Prophet and Khadeel
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:16
			So he moves in next door
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:17
			to his father
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:19
			and to his mother
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:22
			and becomes the neighbor of Abu Lahab, lives
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:24
			in the House of Revelation, the house of
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:26
			the Prophet and Khadija, of course, stole it
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:27
			at the time.
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:29
			And he marries
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:33
			Aatika Bint Abu Sufyan ibn al Harif.
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:35
			I'm mentioning this for a very particular reason
		
00:28:35 --> 00:28:36
			for those who follow this series.
		
00:28:37 --> 00:28:40
			He marries Aatika bint Abu Sufyan ibn al
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:41
			Harith ibn Abdul Muttalib.
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:44
			The reason why this is important is because
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:46
			it kind of gives you another dimension to
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:48
			Abu Safiyyah ibn Haraf being a brother to
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:50
			the Prophet and how he kind of steps
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:52
			into some of the positions that the Prophet
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:54
			would have had. Right?
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:57
			Had he not
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:00
			declared prophethood. This is his brother in full
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:02
			effect. Now his daughter is Maryann, the son
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:03
			of Abu
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:04
			Lahab,
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:07
			and his daughter is moving into that house
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:08
			right next door
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:09
			to Abu Lahab.
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:11
			Alright.
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:13
			We'll talk about these kids once again as
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:14
			time goes on. So this kind of gives
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:16
			you the scene in Mecca as to what's
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:17
			happening.
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:20
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala reveals,
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:35
			Perish the 2 hands of Abu Lahab and
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:36
			perish he.
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:39
			His wealth will do him no good nor
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:40
			that which he earns.
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:43
			He will enter into a fire that is
		
00:29:43 --> 00:29:45
			with a blazing flame. So again, the name
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:46
			means something else.
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:48
			And his wife
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:51
			will be the carrier of firewood
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			in place of the firewood that she used
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:55
			to place in front of the house of
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:56
			the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam,
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:59
			and she will be pouring
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:02
			SubhanAllah, just imagine that. She'll be pouring the
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:04
			flames on her husband in hellfire
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:06
			As she used to try to pour the
		
00:30:06 --> 00:30:09
			adha, the filth on the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:09
			Wasallam.
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:14
			And she has around her neck
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:16
			a rope of twisted thorns.
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:19
			Right? So it gives you a scene.
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:21
			So much to talk about here.
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:23
			Number 1,
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:26
			Allah has named so many or Allah has
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:28
			referred to so many opponents of the Prophet
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:29
			in the Quran.
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:33
			Why is this the only man who is
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:34
			named in the Quran?
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:36
			Why as an enemy of the Prophet
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:40
			Number 1, the scholars mention
		
00:30:41 --> 00:30:43
			the consequence of his rejection was unlike the
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:44
			consequence of anyone else.
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:47
			Right? This is your own family. If you're
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:48
			You know, it's almost to say if your
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:49
			own uncle
		
00:30:49 --> 00:30:51
			doesn't believe in you, then who are we
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:53
			on the outside in tribalistic society to believe
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:55
			in you? The consequence.
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:56
			But also,
		
00:30:57 --> 00:30:59
			he left I mean, just the visual, he
		
00:30:59 --> 00:31:00
			left the Prophet
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:02
			humiliated and alone on the day of his
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:05
			initial call. Think about the scene of everyone
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:07
			turning away from the Prophet and the Prophet
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:08
			standing on safa
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:10
			completely,
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:11
			completely
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:14
			bewildered as to what just happened here.
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:17
			How did I go from being this beloved
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:19
			person to my people, to everyone turning their
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:21
			back on me except for an 8 year
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:22
			old boy? What happened here?
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:25
			So just as he left the prophet SallAllahu
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:27
			Alaihi Wasallam alone in an effort to humiliate
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:28
			him, Allah
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:32
			left him alone to be humiliated in the
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:33
			Quran in a way that no one else
		
00:31:33 --> 00:31:34
			is humiliated
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:35
			by name.
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:37
			Right? That it is Ibadah, it is an
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:40
			act of worship to read His name
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:42
			in this way.
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:44
			And so that is one of the wisdoms
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:45
			that the scholars mentioned
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:46
			in this regard.
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:49
			Now, why does Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala mention
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:51
			that his money and what he has earned
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:53
			will not benefit him? Because Abu Lahab, when
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:55
			he eventually kind of you know, when people
		
00:31:55 --> 00:31:57
			told him within Ben Muhashem, like, you know
		
00:31:57 --> 00:31:58
			that your nephew
		
00:31:59 --> 00:32:01
			is speaking the truth, he said, look,
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:03
			if he's right, on the day of judgment,
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:05
			I'll pay myself out of *.
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:08
			I've got the money for it.
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:11
			The man is so addicted to his money,
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:12
			he thinks, I mean, at the end of
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:14
			the day, I know how to buy myself.
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:16
			I'll post the bill
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:18
			out of Jahannam on the day of judgment
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:19
			if I have to. Right? If this is
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:20
			all real.
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:25
			And
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:28
			So Allah revealed his punishment and
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:31
			punishment
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:33
			as well. The story gets a little bit
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:34
			richer here now.
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:37
			If they were abusive to the Prophet
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:39
			before, how abusive are they going to be
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:41
			when Quran comes down naming them?
		
00:32:43 --> 00:32:43
			Right?
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:47
			How enraged do you think this is going
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:48
			to make them?
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:50
			So when this surah came down
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:52
			and Jamil
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:54
			heard the surah recited,
		
00:32:55 --> 00:32:57
			she grabbed the biggest stone
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:01
			and she came out of her home screaming
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:05
			the name of Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:06
			and saying, where is he?
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:08
			Basically saying, I'm going to kill him.
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:12
			The Prophet was sitting next to the Kaaba,
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:13
			next to Abu Bakr
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:17
			Abu Bakr looks at the Prophet and he
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:18
			says, You Rasool Allah,
		
00:33:19 --> 00:33:21
			she's calling your name, and she's clearly
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:24
			coming with an intention to harm you.
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:26
			And the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam says,
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:30
			Allah is going to take her vision away
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:31
			from me. Don't worry.
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:33
			She won't see me.
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:36
			So she goes to the Kaaba. She sees
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:37
			Abu Bakr,
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:40
			and she says, hey. She didn't even call
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:43
			his name, literally in Arabic language. Hey, You.
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:46
			Where is your friend?
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:49
			And the prophet sitting right next Abu Bakr.
		
00:33:49 --> 00:33:51
			Abu Bakr is looking at the prophet and
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:52
			she's saying, where is your friend? So he
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:54
			realizes that there's a miracle, and the prophet
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:55
			is sitting in full tranquility,
		
00:33:57 --> 00:33:58
			completely unfazed by it.
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:01
			So Abu Bakr
		
00:34:02 --> 00:34:03
			stayed quiet. She said,
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:08
			Oh Hajani,
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:10
			it has come to me that he has
		
00:34:11 --> 00:34:14
			made this poetry about me. Right? Because this
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:16
			was the type of poetry they called, remember
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:18
			this poetry. Right? Hasnat al Nuthabit was the
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:19
			expert in it. So it's come to me
		
00:34:19 --> 00:34:21
			that he's making these lines of poetry.
		
00:34:22 --> 00:34:23
			And she says,
		
00:34:24 --> 00:34:25
			if I find him, I'm going to smash
		
00:34:25 --> 00:34:27
			his face with the stone. So she's telling
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:29
			Abu Bakr that when I find Muhammad sallallahu
		
00:34:29 --> 00:34:31
			alaihi wa sallam, I'm gonna smash his face
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:32
			with the stone.
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:33
			Then she says,
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:37
			You know what? He's a poet
		
00:34:38 --> 00:34:39
			and I'm a poet too.
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:42
			So she goes and she stands on safa,
		
00:34:42 --> 00:34:43
			where the prophet
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:44
			made the initial call.
		
00:34:46 --> 00:34:48
			And she makes these lines. She
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:49
			says,
		
00:34:53 --> 00:34:55
			Starts singing it with a rhythm.
		
00:34:59 --> 00:35:01
			So that people start repeating it after her.
		
00:35:01 --> 00:35:03
			What does it mean? Obviously, turn the name
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:04
			of the Prophet Muhammad
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:05
			the most praiseworthy,
		
00:35:06 --> 00:35:08
			to Muzhammam, someone who is humiliated.
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:11
			Muzhammam and Asaina, we have
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:12
			rejected
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:14
			Muzammam.
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:18
			And we have refused
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:19
			or repudiated
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:22
			his deen, his his affair.
		
00:35:22 --> 00:35:23
			His affair.
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:26
			And we hate his religion.
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:29
			Right? So we reject him, we reject his
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:31
			affair, we reject his religion, and she turned
		
00:35:31 --> 00:35:33
			into poetry. So imagine the prophet is sitting
		
00:35:33 --> 00:35:34
			next to the Kaaba, you see how close
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:35
			Safa is to the Kaaba.
		
00:35:45 --> 00:35:47
			Maybe 1 or 2 of you who have
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:47
			studied.
		
00:35:48 --> 00:35:51
			It's not common. SubhanAllah. But imagine in that
		
00:35:51 --> 00:35:52
			moment,
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:53
			right,
		
00:35:54 --> 00:35:55
			the boastfulness,
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:57
			right, to say those words around the Kaaba
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:59
			about the Prophet Sallallahu
		
00:35:59 --> 00:36:02
			Alaihi Wasallam, and she left still not having
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:04
			noticed the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:36:05 --> 00:36:05
			Afterwards,
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:08
			you have, of course, the boycott of Banu
		
00:36:08 --> 00:36:09
			Hashan.
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:11
			Abu Lahab sinks to a new low. SubhanAllah,
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:13
			I wanted to get to the Muslim family,
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:14
			it's taking me some time.
		
00:36:15 --> 00:36:16
			Abu Lahab sinks to a new low with
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:18
			the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. No one
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:20
			does this in that society.
		
00:36:20 --> 00:36:23
			Abu Lahab says, As for Banu Hashim, I
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:24
			have nothing to do with them anymore. Go
		
00:36:24 --> 00:36:26
			ahead and torture them.
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:29
			They cut themselves off from us when they
		
00:36:29 --> 00:36:31
			adopted this religion of theirs.
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:35
			Torture them, boycott them, starve them. I don't
		
00:36:35 --> 00:36:35
			care.
		
00:36:36 --> 00:36:38
			You wonder how you see the, the token,
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:41
			quote, unquote Palestinian that goes on the news
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:43
			today and preaches the Zionist points? They can
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:44
			only find, like, one of them these days,
		
00:36:45 --> 00:36:46
			right, who keeps showing up on all the
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:48
			shows. Like, he's so angry and hateful, and
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:49
			you can just see him in his face.
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:52
			And you're like, what an evil omen, right,
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:54
			to his people. Right? It's like they got
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:55
			one. They keep on putting on Pierce, and
		
00:36:55 --> 00:36:57
			they keep putting on all of those. Right?
		
00:36:57 --> 00:36:59
			Think of Abu Lahab that way. Talking about
		
00:36:59 --> 00:37:01
			his own family, you know what? Starve them.
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:02
			Torture them.
		
00:37:03 --> 00:37:04
			I'm happy to hear that they're crying at
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:06
			night and for 3 years, they have nothing.
		
00:37:07 --> 00:37:10
			Abu Lahab, wake up. It's not happening. Abu
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:11
			Talib dies
		
00:37:12 --> 00:37:15
			because of the pain of the boycott. Your
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:15
			brother,
		
00:37:16 --> 00:37:18
			a noble man dies because of the pain
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:19
			of the boycott. Doesn't move his heart at
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:22
			all. Khadija Radiallahu Anha dies. I mean, you
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:24
			torture. This used to be your neighbor, Muhammad
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:25
			SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam in Khadija. Can you imagine
		
00:37:25 --> 00:37:28
			being a neighbor of Khadija radiAllahu ta'ala Anha
		
00:37:28 --> 00:37:30
			for all those years, that noble woman and
		
00:37:30 --> 00:37:32
			what type of relationship you would have had
		
00:37:32 --> 00:37:34
			and seen her beautiful and noble characteristics, she
		
00:37:34 --> 00:37:35
			dies because of the starvation.
		
00:37:36 --> 00:37:37
			Nothing.
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:42
			Afterwards, when Abu Talib passes away, not only
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:44
			does Abu Lahab not have any sympathy,
		
00:37:44 --> 00:37:47
			he ramps up his efforts of delegitimizing the
		
00:37:47 --> 00:37:48
			Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50
			after the boycott is over. So what the
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:52
			Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam was doing for the
		
00:37:52 --> 00:37:54
			years prior to the hijrah is that he
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:56
			would go out to the places where the
		
00:37:56 --> 00:37:58
			travelers would come. He kinda The Dawah in
		
00:37:58 --> 00:38:00
			Mecca has reached its its end.
		
00:38:01 --> 00:38:03
			Right? Now he's waiting for those pilgrims coming
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:04
			from abroad,
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:07
			right? And those coming to the marketplaces in
		
00:38:07 --> 00:38:07
			the
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:10
			to Islam.
		
00:38:11 --> 00:38:13
			As this is happening,
		
00:38:13 --> 00:38:14
			Tarkal Muharabi
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:17
			became Muslim later on. He said, I remember
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:18
			coming to Mecca
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:21
			from Yemen, and I saw 2 men walking.
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:23
			I didn't know who they were.
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:26
			1 man was walking and saying,
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:30
			Oh people say, you
		
00:38:30 --> 00:38:31
			will be successful.
		
00:38:33 --> 00:38:34
			And
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:36
			he
		
00:38:37 --> 00:38:37
			said,
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:40
			and a man is walking behind him pelting
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:41
			him with rocks
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:43
			and saying,
		
00:38:45 --> 00:38:47
			Don't believe him. He's a liar.
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:49
			He said, I asked,
		
00:38:50 --> 00:38:51
			what is this?
		
00:38:51 --> 00:38:53
			Think about how confusing the scene is.
		
00:38:54 --> 00:38:56
			And they said, that is Muhammad
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:59
			ibn Abdullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. He claims to
		
00:38:59 --> 00:39:01
			have a new religion that believes in one
		
00:39:01 --> 00:39:01
			God.
		
00:39:03 --> 00:39:04
			That's his uncle,
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:05
			Abu Lahab,
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:08
			that is pelting him with stones and saying,
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:10
			Don't believe him. There are multiple narrations. There's
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:12
			one from Rabi ibn Abad,
		
00:39:12 --> 00:39:14
			in Muslim Ahmed. And he says, I saw
		
00:39:14 --> 00:39:16
			him in Dhul Majaz in the marketplace. And
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:17
			he said, you know,
		
00:39:18 --> 00:39:21
			people would gather around Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:39:21 --> 00:39:22
			and he'd start to have an audience. So
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:24
			it wasn't enough just from Safa. Right? And
		
00:39:24 --> 00:39:24
			Safa,
		
00:39:25 --> 00:39:27
			the first call, Abu Lahab dispersed the audience
		
00:39:27 --> 00:39:28
			by his response.
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:31
			In this narration, Muslim Ahmed, like the prophet
		
00:39:31 --> 00:39:32
			sallallahu alaihi wasallam, would start to have the
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:34
			attention of some people, and then Abu Lahab
		
00:39:34 --> 00:39:36
			would come and start throwing things at him,
		
00:39:36 --> 00:39:37
			saying,
		
00:39:38 --> 00:39:39
			Don't believe him. He's a liar.
		
00:39:41 --> 00:39:41
			Subhan'Allah.
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:44
			Prophet makes hijrah.
		
00:39:45 --> 00:39:47
			Now I want you to remember is that
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:50
			everyone has an extraordinary ending here.
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:52
			Did Abu Lahab fight in the Battle of
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:53
			Badr?
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:55
			Did he fight the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:39:55 --> 00:39:55
			in Badr?
		
00:39:56 --> 00:39:57
			No, he didn't.
		
00:39:58 --> 00:39:59
			He's a good businessman.
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:00
			Smart.
		
00:40:01 --> 00:40:02
			He's like, I know how to get myself
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:03
			out of this.
		
00:40:03 --> 00:40:04
			He calls
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:07
			Abu Jahl's brother. Abu Jahl's name is Amru
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:08
			Nuhisham,
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:10
			and he has a brother named Al Asim
		
00:40:10 --> 00:40:12
			Nuhisham. He calls Al Asim Nuhisham.
		
00:40:13 --> 00:40:14
			He says, you know how you owe me
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:15
			4,000 dirhams?
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:19
			Said, yeah. He said, go fight in Badr
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:20
			for me, and you're free from the dead.
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:24
			So he sends the brother of Abu Jahl
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:26
			in his place, Al Asr ibn Nishan, to
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:27
			go fight and battle in his place in
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:30
			exchange for freeing him from the money
		
00:40:31 --> 00:40:34
			that is due to him. And he's hanging
		
00:40:34 --> 00:40:36
			out in Mecca thinking, piece of cake.
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:37
			We ran the Prophet
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:40
			out. We treated him this way. What's the
		
00:40:40 --> 00:40:42
			worst that could possibly happen?
		
00:40:43 --> 00:40:44
			Abu Rafi,
		
00:40:46 --> 00:40:49
			who was the freed slave of Al Abbas
		
00:40:49 --> 00:40:50
			and Umunubaba
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:54
			Abu Raifah says I was sitting with them
		
00:40:54 --> 00:40:55
			and
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:56
			Abu Lahab
		
00:40:57 --> 00:40:57
			was
		
00:40:58 --> 00:40:58
			pacing
		
00:40:58 --> 00:40:59
			nervously
		
00:41:00 --> 00:41:03
			around the tent waiting for the news from
		
00:41:03 --> 00:41:03
			Badr.
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:06
			And then he'd sit and he'd put his
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:07
			back on my back, like this is the
		
00:41:07 --> 00:41:09
			treatment of a slave. Right? Sit up and
		
00:41:09 --> 00:41:10
			let me rest on your back.
		
00:41:11 --> 00:41:13
			He'd put his back on my back, and
		
00:41:13 --> 00:41:15
			then he'd get up and he'd pace again
		
00:41:15 --> 00:41:17
			nervously waiting for the news.
		
00:41:18 --> 00:41:20
			Then, Abu Sufyan ibn al Harish
		
00:41:21 --> 00:41:22
			comes to the tent.
		
00:41:23 --> 00:41:25
			And Abu Sufyan ibn al Harith, as he
		
00:41:25 --> 00:41:27
			comes to the tent remember, Abu Sufyan ibn
		
00:41:27 --> 00:41:29
			al Harith fought the prophet alaihi wa sallam
		
00:41:29 --> 00:41:29
			al Bayr.
		
00:41:30 --> 00:41:32
			Abu Luhav stands up and says, Mel Khabbar,
		
00:41:32 --> 00:41:34
			what's the news? What happened?
		
00:41:35 --> 00:41:36
			Abu Sufyan Al Harith
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:37
			says,
		
00:41:37 --> 00:41:39
			we found a people
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:42
			who were small in number, but not encouraged.
		
00:41:42 --> 00:41:44
			They were small in number, but not encouraged.
		
00:41:45 --> 00:41:48
			We fought them thinking we could overpower them.
		
00:41:49 --> 00:41:50
			Somehow, they overpowered us.
		
00:41:51 --> 00:41:52
			They killed us
		
00:41:53 --> 00:41:56
			as freely as they wanted to. They captured
		
00:41:56 --> 00:41:58
			us with absolutely no issues,
		
00:41:58 --> 00:42:00
			and they had with them
		
00:42:00 --> 00:42:03
			these humongous men that filled the skies. And
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:06
			they were wearing white robes, white garments that
		
00:42:06 --> 00:42:07
			filled the entire horizon.
		
00:42:08 --> 00:42:10
			And they would strike us, but we couldn't
		
00:42:10 --> 00:42:12
			strike them. And they would pluck us from
		
00:42:12 --> 00:42:13
			the field and throw us around, and we
		
00:42:13 --> 00:42:15
			couldn't do anything to them.
		
00:42:16 --> 00:42:18
			So this is Abu Lahab hearing this from
		
00:42:18 --> 00:42:20
			Abu Sufyan al Hadif.
		
00:42:20 --> 00:42:22
			Abu Raffa was secretly a Muslim.
		
00:42:23 --> 00:42:24
			He's secretly a Muslim,
		
00:42:25 --> 00:42:27
			along with Lubaba who's the mother of Abdullah
		
00:42:27 --> 00:42:28
			ibn Abbas.
		
00:42:28 --> 00:42:29
			So Barathe,
		
00:42:30 --> 00:42:32
			he says, so I stood up out of
		
00:42:32 --> 00:42:32
			joy
		
00:42:36 --> 00:42:37
			and I said, It's the angels. It's the
		
00:42:37 --> 00:42:38
			angels. It's the angels.
		
00:42:39 --> 00:42:40
			And he said, Abu Lahab
		
00:42:41 --> 00:42:42
			punched me, and then he got on top
		
00:42:42 --> 00:42:44
			of me, and he started beating me with
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:46
			both of his fists until he almost beat
		
00:42:46 --> 00:42:47
			me to death.
		
00:42:49 --> 00:42:51
			Then comes the end of Abu Lahab.
		
00:42:52 --> 00:42:52
			Lubaba
		
00:42:55 --> 00:42:56
			takes a tentpole
		
00:42:57 --> 00:42:59
			and she cracks it on Abu Lahab's head,
		
00:43:01 --> 00:43:02
			and it exposes
		
00:43:02 --> 00:43:04
			a huge wound on his skull.
		
00:43:05 --> 00:43:06
			And she says,
		
00:43:11 --> 00:43:14
			Are you showing yourself off on him because
		
00:43:14 --> 00:43:16
			his master is gone? Al Abbas is gone.
		
00:43:16 --> 00:43:17
			Al Abbas is not here. Is that why
		
00:43:17 --> 00:43:19
			you're beating up on him? He's not yours
		
00:43:19 --> 00:43:20
			for you to beat up on him this
		
00:43:20 --> 00:43:22
			way. What do you think you're doing?
		
00:43:22 --> 00:43:24
			So she popped him with the tent pole.
		
00:43:25 --> 00:43:26
			Now, here's the thing.
		
00:43:28 --> 00:43:31
			7 days from that moment where she popped
		
00:43:31 --> 00:43:31
			him,
		
00:43:32 --> 00:43:34
			that wound became infected,
		
00:43:35 --> 00:43:36
			and his whole body
		
00:43:37 --> 00:43:39
			started to rot, Abu Lahab.
		
00:43:41 --> 00:43:41
			And subhanAllah,
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:45
			he became so ill that when you looked
		
00:43:45 --> 00:43:47
			at him, you were terrified by his condition,
		
00:43:47 --> 00:43:49
			by the infection that spread throughout his entire
		
00:43:49 --> 00:43:49
			body,
		
00:43:50 --> 00:43:52
			that his own family
		
00:43:52 --> 00:43:54
			let him die alone in his last days.
		
00:43:54 --> 00:43:57
			They basically quarantined him because they were afraid
		
00:43:57 --> 00:43:58
			that whatever he had might be contagious because
		
00:43:58 --> 00:43:59
			they've never seen
		
00:44:00 --> 00:44:01
			anyone's condition like that.
		
00:44:02 --> 00:44:04
			So the one who forced the prophet salAllahu
		
00:44:04 --> 00:44:06
			alaihi wasalam alone was forced alone.
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:09
			And then on top of that, SubhanAllah,
		
00:44:09 --> 00:44:10
			he dies
		
00:44:11 --> 00:44:12
			a week later,
		
00:44:13 --> 00:44:16
			and his body stunk so badly that none
		
00:44:16 --> 00:44:18
			of his kids wanted to go and retrieve
		
00:44:18 --> 00:44:19
			his body.
		
00:44:19 --> 00:44:21
			The stench from the body of Abu Lahab
		
00:44:21 --> 00:44:22
			was so bad
		
00:44:22 --> 00:44:25
			that they left it for 3 days until
		
00:44:25 --> 00:44:27
			some of the family of Ben El Hashim,
		
00:44:27 --> 00:44:29
			they said, come on, you can't do this
		
00:44:29 --> 00:44:29
			to your father.
		
00:44:30 --> 00:44:32
			Right? Like, this is shameful. Don't do this
		
00:44:32 --> 00:44:35
			to your father. So they had some of
		
00:44:35 --> 00:44:37
			the slaves go and pick up the body
		
00:44:37 --> 00:44:39
			of Abu Lahab, and they put him on
		
00:44:39 --> 00:44:41
			a place in Mecca. And you know how
		
00:44:41 --> 00:44:42
			they buried him?
		
00:44:43 --> 00:44:45
			They pelted him with stones from far away.
		
00:44:47 --> 00:44:49
			SubhanAllah. So the same way he used to
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:50
			follow the prophet, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, and
		
00:44:50 --> 00:44:51
			pelt him with stones,
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:53
			he was pelted
		
00:44:53 --> 00:44:54
			with stones
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:57
			in that way. Alright. The next 10 minutes
		
00:44:57 --> 00:44:59
			are a bit gruesome, but it's just to
		
00:44:59 --> 00:45:01
			show you some how every single person who
		
00:45:01 --> 00:45:03
			hurt the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam was hurt
		
00:45:03 --> 00:45:05
			in the same way. Remember the son of
		
00:45:05 --> 00:45:06
			Abu Lahab who
		
00:45:06 --> 00:45:08
			did what he who tore the Prophet SallAllahu
		
00:45:08 --> 00:45:09
			Alaihi Wasallam's shirt, beat him, spit at him
		
00:45:09 --> 00:45:11
			and all that stuff, and the Prophet made
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:12
			what du'a against him?
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:16
			Oh, Allah, place upon him a dog from
		
00:45:16 --> 00:45:17
			one of your dogs.
		
00:45:18 --> 00:45:19
			This is Ur Tayba.
		
00:45:20 --> 00:45:20
			Ur Tayba
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:23
			went out on a journey to a sham,
		
00:45:23 --> 00:45:25
			one of the trade routes. Abu Lahab told
		
00:45:25 --> 00:45:27
			Ur Tayba, or he called Ur Tayba and
		
00:45:27 --> 00:45:29
			his friends before he left.
		
00:45:29 --> 00:45:30
			He said, listen,
		
00:45:31 --> 00:45:33
			I'm afraid that the Dua of Muhammad SallAllahu
		
00:45:33 --> 00:45:35
			Alaihi Wasallam, the curse of Muhammad SallAllahu Alaihi
		
00:45:35 --> 00:45:37
			Wasallam will come upon him, So protect him
		
00:45:37 --> 00:45:39
			throughout this entire journey. I want you to
		
00:45:39 --> 00:45:41
			surround him the entire time. This shows you
		
00:45:41 --> 00:45:43
			that they knew what they were disbelieving in.
		
00:45:43 --> 00:45:46
			They knew that they were upon kufr. They
		
00:45:46 --> 00:45:48
			knew that the prophet had something
		
00:45:48 --> 00:45:49
			that they were denying out of their own
		
00:45:49 --> 00:45:51
			ego and arrogance. So he said, look, protect
		
00:45:51 --> 00:45:53
			my son when you all travel.
		
00:45:54 --> 00:45:56
			So they got to
		
00:45:56 --> 00:45:57
			a zarkah.
		
00:45:57 --> 00:45:59
			A zarkah in, by the way, Jordan, modern
		
00:45:59 --> 00:46:00
			day Jordan.
		
00:46:01 --> 00:46:01
			Right?
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:03
			And
		
00:46:03 --> 00:46:05
			they go to sleep at night,
		
00:46:06 --> 00:46:08
			and they would place Ur Tayba in the
		
00:46:08 --> 00:46:10
			middle of them. So they'd all sleep around
		
00:46:10 --> 00:46:10
			him.
		
00:46:11 --> 00:46:11
			Okay?
		
00:46:12 --> 00:46:13
			And SubhanAllah,
		
00:46:13 --> 00:46:15
			in the middle of the night, a lion
		
00:46:15 --> 00:46:15
			comes,
		
00:46:17 --> 00:46:19
			and they wake up to the sound of
		
00:46:19 --> 00:46:21
			a roaring lion.
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:24
			And the lion walks past all of the
		
00:46:24 --> 00:46:26
			rest of them, and they're all frozen because,
		
00:46:26 --> 00:46:27
			obviously, they don't wanna
		
00:46:28 --> 00:46:30
			upset the lion. No one's gonna get up
		
00:46:30 --> 00:46:31
			and fight this lion.
		
00:46:32 --> 00:46:34
			The lion walks right to the head of
		
00:46:34 --> 00:46:34
			Urtheba,
		
00:46:36 --> 00:46:37
			and Ur Tayba
		
00:46:38 --> 00:46:38
			screams,
		
00:46:39 --> 00:46:40
			he shouts
		
00:46:41 --> 00:46:42
			and he says,
		
00:46:46 --> 00:46:48
			Muhammad has killed me, and he is in
		
00:46:48 --> 00:46:50
			Mecca, and I'm all the way in Hashem.
		
00:46:51 --> 00:46:52
			Not to give you too many of the
		
00:46:52 --> 00:46:55
			graphic details, but the line basically decapitated him.
		
00:46:57 --> 00:46:58
			Literally ate off his head.
		
00:46:59 --> 00:47:01
			That's the dua of the Prophet against this
		
00:47:01 --> 00:47:02
			person, so he tore the clothes of the
		
00:47:02 --> 00:47:05
			Prophet His body was literally torn SubhanAllah, from
		
00:47:05 --> 00:47:07
			the dua of the Messenger of Allah against
		
00:47:08 --> 00:47:09
			him. Jameel, last
		
00:47:10 --> 00:47:12
			graphic ending here, and we can get to
		
00:47:12 --> 00:47:13
			the Muslims.
		
00:47:14 --> 00:47:16
			Jameel Arwa bint Harb,
		
00:47:18 --> 00:47:18
			was
		
00:47:18 --> 00:47:21
			obviously dealing with the sadness of her husband
		
00:47:21 --> 00:47:22
			and her son now,
		
00:47:22 --> 00:47:25
			both killed in very gruesome and nasty ways.
		
00:47:26 --> 00:47:28
			Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala caused it that one
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:30
			day as she was walking, she was carrying
		
00:47:30 --> 00:47:33
			that same rope. She had a habl that
		
00:47:33 --> 00:47:34
			was well known where she had the thorns
		
00:47:34 --> 00:47:36
			on it. She was carrying it, and she
		
00:47:36 --> 00:47:37
			sat on a stone,
		
00:47:37 --> 00:47:40
			and she basically fell forward, and she was
		
00:47:40 --> 00:47:41
			killed by her own hands.
		
00:47:42 --> 00:47:43
			She was found holding
		
00:47:43 --> 00:47:45
			the rope on her own neck.
		
00:47:46 --> 00:47:46
			As,
		
00:47:47 --> 00:47:48
			Al Qurtubi says,
		
00:47:50 --> 00:47:52
			had basically taken her as she used to
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:53
			strangle the Prophet
		
00:47:53 --> 00:47:55
			she too died in the exact same way.
		
00:47:55 --> 00:47:58
			A miserable ending for 3 people from this
		
00:47:58 --> 00:48:00
			family, and it shows you, SubhanAllah,
		
00:48:01 --> 00:48:03
			the humiliation of these people who harmed the
		
00:48:03 --> 00:48:04
			Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:48:05 --> 00:48:06
			as they harmed it, and of course,
		
00:48:07 --> 00:48:08
			fahkhanataha
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:09
			Allah
		
00:48:09 --> 00:48:11
			SWAJal strangled her with how she used to
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:12
			do to the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam, but
		
00:48:12 --> 00:48:14
			what's worse is what comes in hellfire because
		
00:48:14 --> 00:48:15
			that's where the real
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:18
			torture and punishment is. May Allah
		
00:48:18 --> 00:48:20
			protect us. Allahumma Ameen.
		
00:48:20 --> 00:48:22
			Now, if you put that image back on
		
00:48:22 --> 00:48:25
			the screen of the children and the family,
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:28
			everybody else
		
00:48:30 --> 00:48:31
			on this chart becomes Muslim.
		
00:48:33 --> 00:48:35
			Everybody else is going to become Muslim.
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:38
			So let's start to walk through the stories
		
00:48:38 --> 00:48:40
			of how the rest of them embrace Islam.
		
00:48:40 --> 00:48:41
			So 3 people,
		
00:48:42 --> 00:48:42
			Abu Lahab,
		
00:48:43 --> 00:48:46
			Jamil, and Arutayba have a miserable ending
		
00:48:47 --> 00:48:48
			that exactly mirrors the way they used to
		
00:48:48 --> 00:48:50
			torture the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
		
00:48:50 --> 00:48:52
			The first one to become Muslim is the
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:53
			daughter,
		
00:48:56 --> 00:48:56
			And
		
00:48:58 --> 00:49:01
			has a magnificent story because she's actually from
		
00:49:04 --> 00:49:07
			She's from the early Muslims, the Muhajireen.
		
00:49:08 --> 00:49:10
			How does she gain that particular
		
00:49:11 --> 00:49:13
			type of presence? So again, she was divorced
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:14
			from Zayd,
		
00:49:18 --> 00:49:21
			When she was divorced from Zayd, Abu Laha
		
00:49:21 --> 00:49:23
			married her to Al Harith ibnunofal.
		
00:49:25 --> 00:49:26
			Al Harith of Nunufar
		
00:49:26 --> 00:49:28
			fought the Prophet in Badr,
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:30
			and he died
		
00:49:30 --> 00:49:31
			fighting the Prophet
		
00:49:31 --> 00:49:32
			in Badr,
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:34
			and she was left with
		
00:49:34 --> 00:49:36
			2 or 3 children from him.
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:38
			And when the news came back from Badr
		
00:49:38 --> 00:49:42
			while everybody else was steaming in revenge, Durwa
		
00:49:42 --> 00:49:45
			said, I knew he was a prophet. I
		
00:49:45 --> 00:49:47
			knew he was a prophet. She made Hijrah
		
00:49:47 --> 00:49:49
			by herself to the Prophet
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:50
			in Medina.
		
00:49:51 --> 00:49:52
			She escapes Mecca,
		
00:49:53 --> 00:49:54
			and she goes to Medina
		
00:49:54 --> 00:49:57
			with her children. Now imagine the sight
		
00:49:58 --> 00:50:00
			of the daughter of Abu Lahab holding her
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:02
			children and walking into Medina, and you're a
		
00:50:02 --> 00:50:04
			Muslim in Medina. What in the world is
		
00:50:04 --> 00:50:05
			happening here?
		
00:50:06 --> 00:50:08
			So she comes in and there's this mystery
		
00:50:08 --> 00:50:11
			surrounding Durrah bint Abi Lahab. What do we
		
00:50:11 --> 00:50:12
			do with her?
		
00:50:12 --> 00:50:14
			Right? Is she a spy? Is she coming
		
00:50:14 --> 00:50:16
			to plead on behalf of someone? What is
		
00:50:16 --> 00:50:18
			the point of Dura showing up here? And
		
00:50:18 --> 00:50:20
			Dura comes, she comes to the prophet
		
00:50:20 --> 00:50:21
			and she says,
		
00:50:23 --> 00:50:24
			She takes Shahab.
		
00:50:25 --> 00:50:26
			She becomes a Muslim.
		
00:50:27 --> 00:50:29
			So when you talk about how you have
		
00:50:29 --> 00:50:31
			to be nice to new Muslims, how do
		
00:50:31 --> 00:50:32
			you be nice to a new Muslim that's
		
00:50:32 --> 00:50:33
			Abu Lahab's daughter?
		
00:50:34 --> 00:50:36
			So the women in the Masjid,
		
00:50:36 --> 00:50:39
			when Dura walks into the Masjid, what do
		
00:50:39 --> 00:50:41
			they do? Start talking,
		
00:50:41 --> 00:50:44
			and Dura can hear them talking
		
00:50:44 --> 00:50:45
			about her.
		
00:50:46 --> 00:50:47
			And eventually,
		
00:50:48 --> 00:50:50
			some of the women from Banu Zurayk, they
		
00:50:50 --> 00:50:52
			were known to be stronger women from the
		
00:50:52 --> 00:50:52
			Ansar.
		
00:50:53 --> 00:50:54
			They said to her,
		
00:50:59 --> 00:51:01
			Are you the daughter of Abu Lahab,
		
00:51:01 --> 00:51:03
			the one who Allah says perish the 2
		
00:51:03 --> 00:51:04
			hands of Abu Lahab?
		
00:51:05 --> 00:51:06
			And she said, yes.
		
00:51:07 --> 00:51:08
			They said to her,
		
00:51:11 --> 00:51:12
			What good is your Hijra?
		
00:51:12 --> 00:51:13
			Like, go back home.
		
00:51:14 --> 00:51:15
			You're the daughter of Abu Lahab.
		
00:51:16 --> 00:51:18
			What good is your Islam
		
00:51:18 --> 00:51:19
			going to have?
		
00:51:20 --> 00:51:21
			And the Prophet
		
00:51:24 --> 00:51:26
			was sitting in his home.
		
00:51:27 --> 00:51:28
			And
		
00:51:29 --> 00:51:30
			she comes to the Prophet
		
00:51:32 --> 00:51:34
			and she said, You Rasool Allah, Innan Nasayusihu
		
00:51:35 --> 00:51:37
			An Habib, the people are making fun of
		
00:51:37 --> 00:51:39
			me. They are mocking me. They're saying, you
		
00:51:39 --> 00:51:41
			are the daughter of Hatab Anar.
		
00:51:52 --> 00:51:53
			Gets up and the Prophet
		
00:51:54 --> 00:51:54
			was angry.
		
00:51:55 --> 00:51:57
			Yes, the Messenger of Allah SWALL, this is
		
00:51:57 --> 00:51:57
			the type of stuff
		
00:51:58 --> 00:51:59
			that would cause the Prophet
		
00:52:00 --> 00:52:02
			anger. His face was red
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:05
			He went to the Masjid
		
00:52:06 --> 00:52:08
			He prayed with them Dhuhr,
		
00:52:09 --> 00:52:10
			And then the Prophet
		
00:52:10 --> 00:52:12
			told her, Aj Lisi, sit there.
		
00:52:13 --> 00:52:16
			Wait there. So he wants Dura to be
		
00:52:16 --> 00:52:17
			there to witness this and to see what
		
00:52:17 --> 00:52:19
			he's about to do. And the
		
00:52:19 --> 00:52:20
			prophet stands up on the manbar,
		
00:52:21 --> 00:52:23
			on the pulpit, not on Jum'ah after
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:26
			And he
		
00:52:26 --> 00:52:26
			said,
		
00:52:29 --> 00:52:32
			Who what is it that you're hurting my
		
00:52:32 --> 00:52:33
			family? You're hurting me in regards to my
		
00:52:33 --> 00:52:34
			family.
		
00:52:47 --> 00:52:48
			A.
		
00:52:51 --> 00:52:53
			She's from the family of the prophet My
		
00:52:54 --> 00:52:55
			intercession is for dura
		
00:52:57 --> 00:52:59
			What is it with you that you hurt
		
00:52:59 --> 00:53:01
			me in regards to my family? Will you
		
00:53:01 --> 00:53:03
			stop hurting me in regards to my family?
		
00:53:04 --> 00:53:05
			Sets a tone.
		
00:53:06 --> 00:53:07
			Right? And the prophet
		
00:53:09 --> 00:53:09
			he said
		
00:53:12 --> 00:53:13
			that,
		
00:53:14 --> 00:53:16
			No living person should be hurt on the
		
00:53:16 --> 00:53:19
			account of someone who's dead. You don't mock
		
00:53:19 --> 00:53:21
			someone on the basis of someone that's passed
		
00:53:21 --> 00:53:23
			away. A father, a mother, it doesn't matter.
		
00:53:23 --> 00:53:24
			Don't hurt someone on the basis of a
		
00:53:24 --> 00:53:25
			dead relative.
		
00:53:26 --> 00:53:27
			Don't do that.
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:28
			And Durrah
		
00:53:30 --> 00:53:32
			becomes a member of the community of the
		
00:53:32 --> 00:53:34
			Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam in Madinah, on top
		
00:53:34 --> 00:53:35
			of that. When Prophet
		
00:53:36 --> 00:53:38
			chooses well for people, who does the Prophet
		
00:53:38 --> 00:53:39
			marry her to?
		
00:53:40 --> 00:53:42
			He marries her to Dihyah
		
00:53:44 --> 00:53:45
			Who is Dhihyah?
		
00:53:45 --> 00:53:48
			The one who Jibreel Alaihi Salam
		
00:53:48 --> 00:53:50
			used to look like in human form because
		
00:53:50 --> 00:53:52
			he was the most handsome
		
00:53:52 --> 00:53:54
			of the companions of the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi
		
00:53:54 --> 00:53:55
			Wasallam. The most beautiful
		
00:53:56 --> 00:53:57
			of the companions of the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi
		
00:53:57 --> 00:53:59
			Wasallam. The ambassador of the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:01
			Wasallam to the Romans and beyond. The Prophet
		
00:54:01 --> 00:54:03
			SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam marries Dihyah
		
00:54:03 --> 00:54:05
			to the daughter of Abu Lahab. You know
		
00:54:05 --> 00:54:07
			what I think of the irony here? Her
		
00:54:07 --> 00:54:09
			mom used to tell the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi
		
00:54:09 --> 00:54:10
			Wasallam, where is your Shaytan?
		
00:54:12 --> 00:54:13
			It looks like he stopped descending on you.
		
00:54:13 --> 00:54:16
			And she was talking about Jibreel alayhis salam.
		
00:54:16 --> 00:54:19
			The daughter of that woman married the man
		
00:54:19 --> 00:54:19
			that Jibreel
		
00:54:20 --> 00:54:21
			would look like when he would come down
		
00:54:21 --> 00:54:22
			to this earth.
		
00:54:23 --> 00:54:24
			Subhanallah, the way that it flipped.
		
00:54:25 --> 00:54:26
			So Dura
		
00:54:27 --> 00:54:29
			is considered one of the best
		
00:54:29 --> 00:54:31
			because she's one of the early ones and
		
00:54:31 --> 00:54:33
			think of the sacrifice that she made to
		
00:54:33 --> 00:54:34
			come to
		
00:54:34 --> 00:54:35
			Al Madinah.
		
00:54:35 --> 00:54:36
			Now who's left?
		
00:54:37 --> 00:54:38
			Let's start with Utbah
		
00:54:39 --> 00:54:40
			and Mu'attab.
		
00:54:41 --> 00:54:43
			The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:54:44 --> 00:54:46
			comes back in Fathih Makkah.
		
00:54:48 --> 00:54:49
			And Al Aba
		
00:54:51 --> 00:54:52
			who's obviously
		
00:54:52 --> 00:54:54
			and we're gonna talk about him next week
		
00:54:54 --> 00:54:55
			in sort of his own detail
		
00:54:56 --> 00:54:57
			because he keeps showing up in every one
		
00:54:57 --> 00:54:59
			of these stories. He's the one that the
		
00:54:59 --> 00:55:02
			Prophet is communicating to everyone through,
		
00:55:02 --> 00:55:03
			right?
		
00:55:04 --> 00:55:05
			Al Abbas says
		
00:55:06 --> 00:55:08
			that the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam called me
		
00:55:08 --> 00:55:09
			and he said,
		
00:55:16 --> 00:55:16
			Where
		
00:55:17 --> 00:55:20
			are your 2 nephews, Ruthba and Mu'atib? I
		
00:55:20 --> 00:55:21
			don't see them here.
		
00:55:21 --> 00:55:22
			Prophet
		
00:55:22 --> 00:55:24
			is looking around the scene of Fathih Makk,
		
00:55:24 --> 00:55:25
			and he's looking for his old relatives.
		
00:55:27 --> 00:55:29
			And Al Abbas is thinking, you know, he's
		
00:55:29 --> 00:55:30
			probably not excited
		
00:55:31 --> 00:55:32
			about seeing the children of Abu Lahab,
		
00:55:33 --> 00:55:35
			all the harm that came from those parents.
		
00:55:37 --> 00:55:38
			But he says to the prophet,
		
00:55:44 --> 00:55:46
			that they have fled to the edges of
		
00:55:46 --> 00:55:48
			Mecca the way that some of the leaders
		
00:55:48 --> 00:55:50
			of Quraysh have fled because some people ran
		
00:55:50 --> 00:55:52
			away from the prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam thinking
		
00:55:52 --> 00:55:54
			that he would carry out retribution.
		
00:55:55 --> 00:55:57
			The prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam said,
		
00:55:59 --> 00:55:59
			go to them.
		
00:56:01 --> 00:56:02
			And bring them to me.
		
00:56:03 --> 00:56:04
			Go talk to Utbah and Mu'attab
		
00:56:06 --> 00:56:08
			and tell them that I want to see
		
00:56:08 --> 00:56:10
			them. You can imagine, we're the kids of
		
00:56:10 --> 00:56:11
			Abu Lahab.
		
00:56:12 --> 00:56:14
			We don't think this is gonna end well.
		
00:56:14 --> 00:56:16
			Utbah divorced the oldest daughter of the prophet
		
00:56:17 --> 00:56:18
			He divorced Ruqayya.
		
00:56:19 --> 00:56:19
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:56:20 --> 00:56:22
			Usman is there amongst those
		
00:56:23 --> 00:56:24
			that have come.
		
00:56:24 --> 00:56:26
			There's a lot of pain here, right?
		
00:56:27 --> 00:56:27
			So the Abbas
		
00:56:28 --> 00:56:30
			says, So I went to them
		
00:56:30 --> 00:56:32
			in the area that I knew them to
		
00:56:32 --> 00:56:33
			be.
		
00:56:38 --> 00:56:41
			I said to them, guess what? The prophet
		
00:56:41 --> 00:56:43
			is calling for you. He wants to see
		
00:56:43 --> 00:56:43
			you.
		
00:56:48 --> 00:56:49
			And so they came rushing.
		
00:56:50 --> 00:56:52
			Now they're excited, like, woah, he called for
		
00:56:52 --> 00:56:54
			us? Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam wants to see
		
00:56:54 --> 00:56:55
			us?
		
00:56:55 --> 00:56:57
			So they came riding very quickly with an
		
00:56:57 --> 00:57:00
			Abbas the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
		
00:57:02 --> 00:57:05
			until they came to the Prophet sallallahu alaihi
		
00:57:05 --> 00:57:05
			wasallam,
		
00:57:07 --> 00:57:09
			the prophet called them.
		
00:57:09 --> 00:57:11
			This is one of my favorite scenes because
		
00:57:11 --> 00:57:13
			it's just so beautiful and it's in the
		
00:57:13 --> 00:57:13
			details.
		
00:57:23 --> 00:57:24
			Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam went between them, he
		
00:57:24 --> 00:57:26
			grabbed both of their hands and he said,
		
00:57:26 --> 00:57:27
			Let's take a walk.
		
00:57:29 --> 00:57:30
			And he walked with both of them,
		
00:57:31 --> 00:57:33
			talking to both of them for a long
		
00:57:33 --> 00:57:35
			time, Sallallahu Alaihi
		
00:57:36 --> 00:57:38
			Wasallam. Can you imagine the scene? Sallallahu
		
00:57:38 --> 00:57:41
			Alaihi Wasallam. What a Rahma. What a mercy.
		
00:57:42 --> 00:57:43
			As if he's putting them at ease and
		
00:57:43 --> 00:57:44
			saying, listen,
		
00:57:45 --> 00:57:47
			I know it was your father, it wasn't
		
00:57:47 --> 00:57:49
			you. It was your mother, it wasn't you.
		
00:57:49 --> 00:57:50
			Because we don't actually see any of the
		
00:57:50 --> 00:57:53
			particular aggression from Utbah or Mu'atib. Prophet SallAllahu
		
00:57:53 --> 00:57:55
			Alaihi Wasallam putting them at ease,
		
00:57:56 --> 00:57:57
			walking with them SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:57:58 --> 00:58:00
			until he reached to the Mu'tazam
		
00:58:01 --> 00:58:04
			of the Ka'aba, right at the Kaaba, sallallahu
		
00:58:04 --> 00:58:04
			alaihi wasallam.
		
00:58:06 --> 00:58:07
			And then the prophet
		
00:58:07 --> 00:58:09
			after talking to them, holding their hands, walking
		
00:58:09 --> 00:58:11
			between them for that long, he lets them
		
00:58:11 --> 00:58:12
			go.
		
00:58:14 --> 00:58:16
			And Al Abbas says that he came back,
		
00:58:18 --> 00:58:19
			and the prophet
		
00:58:19 --> 00:58:21
			face was full of joy. He was so
		
00:58:21 --> 00:58:21
			happy.
		
00:58:23 --> 00:58:23
			So,
		
00:58:24 --> 00:58:26
			I said to the prophet sallAllahu alaihi
		
00:58:27 --> 00:58:27
			wasalam,
		
00:58:29 --> 00:58:31
			may Allah keep you happy, O Messenger of
		
00:58:31 --> 00:58:31
			Allah.
		
00:58:33 --> 00:58:35
			I can see joy in your face like
		
00:58:35 --> 00:58:36
			this is
		
00:58:36 --> 00:58:38
			so much happiness in your face.
		
00:58:48 --> 00:58:51
			That I asked my Lord to give me
		
00:58:51 --> 00:58:54
			my 2 cousins, and Allah gifted me with
		
00:58:54 --> 00:58:54
			my 2 cousins.
		
00:58:55 --> 00:58:56
			So the prophet
		
00:58:56 --> 00:58:58
			had a soft spot. He loved
		
00:58:58 --> 00:58:59
			still
		
00:58:59 --> 00:59:01
			who was supposed to be his first son-in-law,
		
00:59:01 --> 00:59:02
			Utba, his cousin,
		
00:59:03 --> 00:59:05
			Mu'athib, who's a young man, he loved them.
		
00:59:05 --> 00:59:06
			Even though Mu'athib
		
00:59:07 --> 00:59:09
			confiscated his house, Mu'athib lives in the house
		
00:59:09 --> 00:59:11
			of the prophet, khadid radiAllahu anha. What does
		
00:59:11 --> 00:59:12
			the prophet do?
		
00:59:13 --> 00:59:14
			He lets him keep the
		
00:59:15 --> 00:59:17
			house. You can still live in that house.
		
00:59:18 --> 00:59:19
			So the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam doesn't take
		
00:59:19 --> 00:59:21
			back. You know, I remember when I when
		
00:59:21 --> 00:59:22
			I did the Sirat of Khadija
		
00:59:23 --> 00:59:25
			there was a question. Why did the Prophet
		
00:59:25 --> 00:59:26
			SAWH-seven put his tent
		
00:59:26 --> 00:59:27
			close to
		
00:59:27 --> 00:59:28
			Al Mu'allah
		
00:59:28 --> 00:59:30
			where the grave of the Khadeed
		
00:59:30 --> 00:59:32
			was? Why didn't the Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:59:32 --> 00:59:34
			just go back home? Like to his old
		
00:59:34 --> 00:59:36
			house in Fathah Makkah.
		
00:59:37 --> 00:59:39
			He let Mu'athab keep the house
		
00:59:39 --> 00:59:41
			that he stole from the Prophet Khadija
		
00:59:42 --> 00:59:43
			And the Prophet
		
00:59:43 --> 00:59:45
			was overjoyed to have his 2 cousins with
		
00:59:45 --> 00:59:46
			him, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, and that is from
		
00:59:54 --> 00:59:54
			Now, what
		
00:59:55 --> 00:59:56
			Now, what happens in every one of these
		
00:59:56 --> 00:59:59
			stories, Hunayn and Ta'if are where it shows.
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:01
			In Hunayn,
		
01:00:02 --> 01:00:05
			Utbah and Mu'attab were amongst those who did
		
01:00:05 --> 01:00:06
			not flee from the side of the prophet,
		
01:00:06 --> 01:00:07
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
		
01:00:08 --> 01:00:08
			Mu'attab
		
01:00:09 --> 01:00:11
			lost an eye fighting alongside the prophet, sallallahu
		
01:00:11 --> 01:00:12
			alaihi wa sallam
		
01:00:13 --> 01:00:15
			in the Battle of Hunayn by which he
		
01:00:15 --> 01:00:17
			always wore an eye patch after that.
		
01:00:18 --> 01:00:20
			And this solidified the bonds of the Prophet
		
01:00:21 --> 01:00:23
			in Utbah and Mu'attab. So Utba
		
01:00:24 --> 01:00:25
			ibn Abi Lahab
		
01:00:28 --> 01:00:28
			Strange
		
01:00:29 --> 01:00:31
			when you read that he's the one that
		
01:00:31 --> 01:00:32
			divorced the Prophet's
		
01:00:32 --> 01:00:33
			daughter.
		
01:00:33 --> 01:00:34
			Utbah
		
01:00:37 --> 01:00:39
			They fought alongside the Prophet in her name,
		
01:00:39 --> 01:00:41
			They continued, and they fought alongside the Prophet
		
01:00:42 --> 01:00:43
			in Ta'if as well.
		
01:00:44 --> 01:00:46
			Kharida and Izzam,
		
01:00:46 --> 01:00:48
			may Allah be pleased with them. The other
		
01:00:48 --> 01:00:50
			2 daughters also embraced Islam, but we don't
		
01:00:50 --> 01:00:52
			know anything about them. So all of the
		
01:00:52 --> 01:00:52
			children,
		
01:00:53 --> 01:00:55
			except for Uttaiba
		
01:00:55 --> 01:00:56
			became Muslim.
		
01:00:57 --> 01:00:58
			On top of that,
		
01:00:59 --> 01:01:00
			Al Mu'attab
		
01:01:01 --> 01:01:02
			had many children.
		
01:01:03 --> 01:01:05
			And what did he name his children?
		
01:01:06 --> 01:01:07
			Abdullah,
		
01:01:07 --> 01:01:08
			Mohammed,
		
01:01:08 --> 01:01:09
			Abu Sufyan,
		
01:01:10 --> 01:01:10
			Musa,
		
01:01:11 --> 01:01:11
			Rabaydullah,
		
01:01:12 --> 01:01:12
			Saeed,
		
01:01:13 --> 01:01:14
			Khaleda.
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:17
			So he's Abba Abdillah and he has a
		
01:01:17 --> 01:01:19
			son that he names Muhammad,
		
01:01:19 --> 01:01:22
			and he names his children Musa and Ubaidullah.
		
01:01:22 --> 01:01:24
			I mean, it's so beautiful and profound
		
01:01:24 --> 01:01:27
			when you think about this. And here's the
		
01:01:27 --> 01:01:27
			thing,
		
01:01:28 --> 01:01:30
			from the descendants of the children of Abu
		
01:01:30 --> 01:01:30
			Lahab
		
01:01:31 --> 01:01:34
			are many, many Muslims. So you can find
		
01:01:34 --> 01:01:35
			hadith narrators
		
01:01:37 --> 01:01:37
			whose grandfather
		
01:01:38 --> 01:01:39
			and great grandfather
		
01:01:39 --> 01:01:41
			is Abu Lahab. I want you to think
		
01:01:41 --> 01:01:43
			about this name. I was looking at this
		
01:01:43 --> 01:01:45
			name from the from the book of the,
		
01:01:45 --> 01:01:45
			the
		
01:01:46 --> 01:01:49
			Al Qasem ibn al Abbas ibn Muhammad ibn
		
01:01:49 --> 01:01:50
			Mu'attab ibn Abilahab.
		
01:01:51 --> 01:01:52
			It just blew my mind.
		
01:01:53 --> 01:01:54
			That's a hadith narrator.
		
01:01:54 --> 01:01:56
			Al Qasem was the oldest son of the
		
01:01:56 --> 01:01:57
			prophet
		
01:01:57 --> 01:01:58
			ibn al Abbas,
		
01:01:59 --> 01:02:01
			who was the uncle of the prophet ibn
		
01:02:01 --> 01:02:02
			Muhammad, of course, is Muhammad
		
01:02:03 --> 01:02:04
			ibn
		
01:02:04 --> 01:02:05
			Abilahab.
		
01:02:05 --> 01:02:07
			Every single one of them is a half
		
01:02:07 --> 01:02:08
			of the Quran.
		
01:02:10 --> 01:02:11
			And so they all read
		
01:02:14 --> 01:02:15
			His children, his grandchildren,
		
01:02:16 --> 01:02:18
			and by the way, his descendants surely exist
		
01:02:18 --> 01:02:21
			in the Muslim world Muslim world today. So
		
01:02:21 --> 01:02:22
			the descendants of Abu Lahab,
		
01:02:23 --> 01:02:26
			Muslim descendants exist in the Muslim world today.
		
01:02:26 --> 01:02:26
			SubhanAllah.
		
01:02:27 --> 01:02:28
			And this is the way that Allah
		
01:02:29 --> 01:02:31
			changes the fate of people. I wanna also
		
01:02:31 --> 01:02:33
			share with you something else in this regards,
		
01:02:39 --> 01:02:40
			His money did not
		
01:02:41 --> 01:02:43
			benefit him nor what he earned. Ibn Abbas,
		
01:02:43 --> 01:02:44
			one
		
01:02:44 --> 01:02:45
			time, 2 children
		
01:02:46 --> 01:02:48
			Abu Lahab, got into an argument.
		
01:02:48 --> 01:02:51
			Ibn Abbas tried to break them up, and
		
01:02:51 --> 01:02:52
			then he left them, and he said, you
		
01:02:52 --> 01:02:53
			are maqasab.
		
01:02:55 --> 01:02:56
			You're what he earned.
		
01:02:57 --> 01:02:58
			And they asked him, I said, what do
		
01:02:58 --> 01:02:59
			you mean by that?
		
01:03:01 --> 01:03:03
			And he said, when Allah said, he
		
01:03:03 --> 01:03:04
			meant his kids.
		
01:03:05 --> 01:03:07
			He didn't benefit from his children.
		
01:03:08 --> 01:03:10
			He didn't benefit from his children. SubhanAllah.
		
01:03:11 --> 01:03:12
			He took pride in his money. His money
		
01:03:12 --> 01:03:13
			did him nothing. He took pride in his
		
01:03:13 --> 01:03:15
			children. His children became Muslim.
		
01:03:16 --> 01:03:19
			And read his humiliation and taught his humiliation
		
01:03:19 --> 01:03:21
			to their kids and their grandkids and became
		
01:03:21 --> 01:03:23
			a father of the Quran who all
		
01:03:24 --> 01:03:26
			taught that Surah. So when you read,
		
01:03:28 --> 01:03:29
			is
		
01:03:29 --> 01:03:30
			and
		
01:03:33 --> 01:03:34
			and and and their descendants.
		
01:03:35 --> 01:03:37
			Now when you read that Surah, think of
		
01:03:37 --> 01:03:38
			all of them and think, somehow, what a
		
01:03:38 --> 01:03:39
			failure.
		
01:03:39 --> 01:03:41
			If he would have become Muslim, they would
		
01:03:41 --> 01:03:42
			have all been his
		
01:03:43 --> 01:03:45
			They would have all been a continuation of
		
01:03:45 --> 01:03:47
			his legacy. He would have benefited from the
		
01:03:47 --> 01:03:47
			intercession
		
01:03:48 --> 01:03:48
			of the Prophet
		
01:03:51 --> 01:03:53
			I leave you with one narration
		
01:03:54 --> 01:03:55
			in this regard,
		
01:03:55 --> 01:03:57
			and it's the narration of Al Abbas
		
01:03:58 --> 01:04:00
			who we will speak about in detail, inshaAllah,
		
01:04:00 --> 01:04:02
			next week. Even though we've spoken about Lubaba
		
01:04:03 --> 01:04:05
			his wife, and we will speak about Abdulla
		
01:04:05 --> 01:04:06
			Abba
		
01:04:07 --> 01:04:08
			in detail
		
01:04:08 --> 01:04:10
			one day soon, inshallah ta'ala.
		
01:04:11 --> 01:04:13
			But it's the dream of Al Abbas.
		
01:04:14 --> 01:04:14
			Al Abbas
		
01:04:16 --> 01:04:16
			sees
		
01:04:19 --> 01:04:20
			in his dream
		
01:04:21 --> 01:04:22
			his brother Abu Lahab,
		
01:04:24 --> 01:04:26
			And he said
		
01:04:26 --> 01:04:29
			that he was in a terrible situation.
		
01:04:30 --> 01:04:30
			Right?
		
01:04:32 --> 01:04:33
			And he said, I asked my brother as
		
01:04:33 --> 01:04:35
			I saw him in this terrible situation,
		
01:04:35 --> 01:04:37
			Abu Lahab in this terrible situation,
		
01:04:40 --> 01:04:41
			I asked him, what did you find?
		
01:04:41 --> 01:04:42
			What's
		
01:04:42 --> 01:04:44
			what's the hereafter like for you?
		
01:04:45 --> 01:04:46
			And Abu Lahab says,
		
01:04:55 --> 01:04:57
			He said that I have not found
		
01:04:58 --> 01:04:58
			any
		
01:04:59 --> 01:04:59
			relief
		
01:04:59 --> 01:05:01
			since I left you in that world,
		
01:05:02 --> 01:05:03
			except for this amount
		
01:05:04 --> 01:05:05
			of water,
		
01:05:06 --> 01:05:08
			for the time that I freed thawaybah,
		
01:05:08 --> 01:05:10
			radiallahu anha when the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
		
01:05:10 --> 01:05:11
			was born.
		
01:05:12 --> 01:05:14
			SubhanAllah, his eternal humiliation
		
01:05:15 --> 01:05:17
			is when he humiliated the Prophet
		
01:05:18 --> 01:05:20
			The one form of relief and respite that
		
01:05:20 --> 01:05:21
			he has on the day of judgment
		
01:05:22 --> 01:05:24
			or, you know, in his punishment is for
		
01:05:24 --> 01:05:26
			the one moment that he honored the prophet
		
01:05:26 --> 01:05:28
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. A little bit of
		
01:05:28 --> 01:05:29
			relief for that time
		
01:05:29 --> 01:05:30
			that I honored Muhammad
		
01:05:31 --> 01:05:35
			Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
		
01:05:35 --> 01:05:37
			make us amongst those who honor the way
		
01:05:37 --> 01:05:38
			of the Prophet
		
01:05:39 --> 01:05:41
			and who are honored with the companionship of
		
01:05:41 --> 01:05:42
			the Prophet
		
01:05:43 --> 01:05:44
			May
		
01:05:45 --> 01:05:46
			Allah be pleased with his family and his
		
01:05:46 --> 01:05:47
			companions and may Allah
		
01:05:48 --> 01:05:51
			sallallahu alaihi wa sallam fit for the dose
		
01:05:51 --> 01:05:52
			of
