This seminar about the life of prophet Muhammad.
Last we last time, we were talking about,
you know, the
the Arab Peninsula
before

how it was looked like,
and how a lot a lot of darkness
was in in Arab Peninsula before Islam,
and everybody was waiting
for the light of Islam.
And today,
we will just,
briefly,
we will look at,
the man of our Peninsula

people or their villages
in in Arab Peninsula
and what around it. I choose this man.
Reads it's,
summarize,
you know, all the religions
and the prophets, messengers that the most,
had sent
to mankind
in this area. If you look at
you know, I'm not sure. Is it, big
enough to to see?
Or we need to
When we look at this is the Arabi
Nazimat. This is the Surah Adiriyya,
a man, a jazeera, a man, a jazeera,
a man.
This is the this one.
This is the this one.
The red? Yeah. This one? There. Yeah. There
you go. It's good.
This is the our peninsula.
You know, the the
that the green the green color or
the this this color here.
And from from
up north, there is Iraq,
and there is Bereshan
here,
and there is Egypt here,
and this is Yemen down there,
and this is, you know, Oman and,
Imarat, and, you know, this is
this is the the the Red Sea.
This is the the sea that prophet Musa

from Egypt, to go to Bilal al Sha'a
here.
And,
when we look at the map,
our our lecture tonight
about the role and the government
of,
the Arabs
before it's there.
To see, when
we look at, we have
4
4 major,
places
has
had
the the the government
before Islam.
This one
related
to
Al Arab, which is,
related to Faris.
You know, we have the biggest,
countries
in that time,
are are
Roman, Wafers,
Roman
and
what?
Persia. Persia
related to Bilal Fers because if you move
here, you will find Bilal Fares in this
area. Bilal Nawara in Nahri.
In Nahri
means, you know, Nah Naw, a digital fraud.
What behind that, they call Bilal Fares.
And this is Iraq,
and this is Bilad
Aruma, Bilad Shem.
You know,
Bilad Isham,
the major religion for them, which is Christianity,
means we we blessed around Al Masjid Al
Aqsa because the the most prophets,
Allah sent them in this area. And when
we look here,
these are
the the the the prophets and the messenger
that
Allah sent them to mankind.
This is Mecca here.
We're gonna start with Mecca. You know, our
forefather,
Adam, and the prophet Isma'il,
and prophet Muhammad
This is Makkaneer.
And if you go
here, Bilal, Bilal Islam,
and you will find
we have a lot a lot of them
because,
the the,
Palestine Mosque
here.
We have
in in,
this is Jordan.
There's prophet Lut.
Beloved prophet Lut.
And this is prophet Ishaq, the other son
of the prophet Ibrahim.
Prophet
Ibrahim, you know, was
in
Iraq, and he moved
to,
Bilal Bilal Isham, Palestine.
And he visit Egypt, and he visit Mecca,
and
in Iraq here.
Prophet Nuh-huh.
Prophet Idris
was in Iraq too,
And this is Ben Ali Shah. There is,
a prophet Ayub,
prophet Dhunkhif,
prophet Iyasan,
and we have
Yeah. We have prophet Elias
and prophet Elias,
and we have, you know, prophet Yahu.
Jacob,
Yahu,
the the father of prophet Yusuf Alaihi Salam,
prophet Dawood,
Prophet Yusuf Alaihi Salam, Prophet Dawood, Sulaiman, Zakariya,
Yahya, Reysa, peace be upon them. All of
them,
were in,
and and and and and puts
puts, which is, you know, that that Masjid
al Aqsa in Palestine.
We have prophet,
Yusuf.
He moved from
to
go to Egypt when his brother put him
into the well, and they sold.
And the the the
the the caravan found him, and they sold
him as a slave
in into into,
the person in Egypt, and he become
the the the ministry of of of Egypt.
Egypt. And he lives in Egypt, and he
died in Egypt. Even he called his family,
to go to Egypt, to live with him.
And there is prophet Musa, Musa's peace be
upon him, and with his brother, prophet Arun.
They were,
in Egypt also.
And there is prophet Khud,
Al Akhaf.
Al Akhaf. It was in Yemen down there.
And
the rest of Arab Peninsula,
you know,
has
no mention,
for for the messengers and the prophets of
Allah.
From
prophet Ismael,
when
when
Allah told prophet Ibrahim to took his son
to put him into into the land here.
And since that time,
there is no profit between them. When we
look at this area, there is Allah, a
lot of prophets
between prophet,
Isha, Azer,
and tell prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
A lot of them.
But in this area, exactly, there is no
prophets between the prophet
Ishmael and prophet Muhammad
Why?
There is a lot of of prophets and
the messenger in this area,
but this area has no profit
since the prophet Ishmael.
Tell prophet Muhammad
There is a wisdom for that. When the
people
you know, we we're gonna study today inshallah.
We're gonna study today about
You know, the role and the government
in our,
area of our peninsula
before Islam.
We have
yeah.
Means
the Rome and the government
in Arabs.
Just for as a as a as a
reminder, we cannot go through all these details,
but to to take an idea
about
the the Arab Peninsula before Islam
to be able to understand
why Allah
left this area without messengers or prophets
from the prophet Ismael till prophet Muhammad
The the road in Yemen,
Yemen,
like I mentioned, it was
there is Yemen here down there.
This is Yemen.
Far, far south down there.
And this area, they called it Nadiram.
Yemen.
They from an Arab, an Arab,
the Pure Arab.
They called even Yemen the Aztul Arab.
Here,
this that pure Arab was,
were there in in Yemen here.
And we will look at
the the other area of other side of
Red
Sea that is
Ethiopia.
Ethiopia.
The region. The region? Yeah. What is Ethiopia
here? I'm I'm sorry. Down here. Yeah. Ethiopia.
Ethiopia, you remember
when prophet
Muhammad did salat al wahi?
The funeral prayer,
for Al Najashi. You remember Al Najashi?
He was
here in Ethiopia.
In
the
this area,
it was from prophet Musa Alaihi Salam.
You know, Judaism was in this area.
And when
when Jews
somebody destroyed their their hiker,
and they forced them to go everywhere.
And some of them,
they came to Yemen.
And they they he is a Jew. And
he came to Yemen,
and he conquered Yemen,
and he forced
the the Christian at Yemen
to believe in his way of religion.
And it's very famous story in the
Quran, Ashabuqhdud.
When he moved to Yemen
and he
conquered Yemen
and he tried to force
the people of Yemen to believe in his
way
of Judaism,
and they refused.
And he
he made a big trench for them,
and he fired them into the narration said
that almost 20,000
people
get burned in this
trench. And other narration said, it's 40,000
people
get killed.
And it will help us to understand
why Christianity
started after that
by
the sword. And they tried to force people
to accept
Christianity
as a religion
for a life.
The Khalil al Nifab
lay in Nasraniyah
Tawesat
in in the in that time,
you know,
when the Jew person tried to force them
and they refused and he killed them and
he burned them,
now
the Christianity came from this area,
and they tried to
force people again
to believe in Christianity,
and they tried to spread their religion everywhere
in the world after that.
But the when we look at Yemen now,
in in that in that time,
you know,
here in Al Araba,
you know, Al Qawm Sadaq, you know that
Malakid Sadaq,
it's a famous
kingdom that Quran was
mentioned. Saba.
Just I would like to mention the the
last few sentence
because it's,
you know, a lot of details. We don't
need all these details.
Yeah.
The the Jew person, his name, Dunu was
yeah. Hamada,
Fisarath,
you know,
he forced the people to from Najran.
But
they did not listen to him, and he
burned them.
And and this is the story that Omar
mentioned,
Qudira Asghar al Ufdud. And this is was
the big reason for Christianity
to spread everywhere because of this action that
Dunuwas
did against Christianity
in or Christian in that in that time.
After that,
the the
Al Habash means the Ethiopian.
They sent,
you know, 70,000
soldiers from Al Habashah,
and they conquered Yemen again
after
after Dunhu was the Jew person after he
conquered the Yemen and the Christianity
the Christians,
again, they conquered Yemen one more time.
And
the the leader for the army at that
time, his name, Ariad.
Ariad, he was Christian,
and
Abraha Habashim.
Abraha from Ethiopia.
Abraha Habashim.
You know, one day,
you know, they came from from Habashahir,
and they moved to Yemen.
His his name, Aryat,
with the 70,000
soldier,
and they conquered Yemen,
and they
forced people to believe in Christianity
in Yemen in that time. It was
523
years after birth of prophet Jesus, peace be
upon him. Makes sense? And the leader of
his army is named Abraham El Habashin,
the one
who went to Mecca to destroy Mecca with
the elephants.
You remember his story? Asha Befib,
he's named Abraha.
And Abraha, one day,
he found himself
has more right
than. And both of them, they they were
fighting.
And the people in Habasha,
they were divided.
Some of them supporting
and some of them supporting.
And
the soldiers will go with him. And Ariad,
he liked the idea and they
they,
were fighting
2 of them.
And Ariad has one slave
behind his back.
Ariat
tried to hit
Abraham,
and he hit his face with his
eyebrow with his eye, and this is and
he he made a big wound in his
face. And this is the reason why he
his name, Abraham
Ashram,
because of this
wound having into his face.
And he killed Ariad.
After that,
you know,
al Najashi al Najashi means
the the the leader. It's not name of
al Najashi. The leader, Bayek Phayru, for Egypt,
al Najashi
for Ethiopia,
you know, kaiser for Rum,
You know?
For room. You know? This is the the
the position of the person who who, who's
ruling the the kanji. And Najashi, at that
time, he was angry with Abraha.
And he did swear, I will go to
Abraha.
How come that he killed the person that
I assigned
and he did not respect me?
He did all of I will go to
Yemen
to put his neck under my foot and
I will kill I I I will I
will shave his head off a lot of
people. And Abraham was very smart,
you know. And this is the
they said, you know,
politics.
You have to know how to deal with
others.
And he shaved his hair, Abraham.
And he put his hair into the bag,
and he took back off the dust of
Yemen, and he sent his messenger to a
Najjar Shihir.
And he wrote a letter.
Oh, my my,
my master.
You know, I'm so sorry for for what
happened.
Ariad is your slave, and I am your
slave too. But I have no right to
rule Yemen under your your occupation,
And you did also come to Yemen
to put your foot on the desk of
Yemen and to shave my hair. I sent
my hair for you in the bag. I
sent the bag of dust for you to
put your foot and to put you my
hair on it to
fulfill your promise.
And he the Najashi writes the idea and
he said, you are smart. And he kept
him as a leader for Yemen.
And Najashi Najashi,
when he agree with Abraham to stay here,
and Abraha to show
a
a
a great fort for him. And he built
a big
church
and he called it Kulites.
We were talking last time about about it.
When he built the Kulayes,
he
took a lot of of, gold and,
silver
from
the the the building of the piece
from Abdullah Al Salah. And he put a
lot of crosses
from gold and silver, and and he he
built a very amazing building
for the church.
And he said to Najah Najashi, I will
force Arabs
to come to make pilgrimage
into Kulay's
Reza than
Al Kaaba in Mecca.
And Al Nadershi was having with him in
that time. This is the reason why he
has the army, and he went
to Mecca to destroy Qatar.
Just to understand how the story started.
Why this man, Abraham
al Havershi
or Abraham Ashraf?
Why he took his army to destroy the
Kaaba here? Because he found all Arabs.
The religious one or non religious one, they
they do pilgrimage every year to the Kaaba.
And he tried to force them to come
to this area, you know,
to do pilgrimage
to the Qur'anites.
Anyway, when he when he went to Kaaba
you know the story of Asha Abdul Thid.
And this has happened
in the same year that prophet Muhammad
was born. It's Abi al Thim.
Yeah. This is
an idea about a ruling in in Yemen
or a short film.
We gonna go up to,
Bilad Fares.
Bilad Fares means
they call alhira.
Almulku bhira.
This is also was a
a kingdom,
for
beloved hero.
It belongs to
beloved
Yeah.
When we look at the the map, I
think it would be a good idea
just to take
a look.
This is a here.
This is Bilad in Iraq
near to,
Bilad,
Faris, Iran, and Bilad Nawa al Rahman. And
in Iraq here a here in this area
near to Abufah, where
in this area near to Al Goufat or
Basra
in Iraq today,
this is
the area
has the the authority of Persia
in this area.
We have Yemen here,
some time for
Jewish
the Jews and some time for
Christianity
until the time of Islam came,
and the kingdom of Al Yamal,
he accepted Islam, and they,
become Muslims after that. The same idea here,
Bilal al al Hera or multiphil Hera belongs
to, a, a, a, a, a, a, a,
a, a, a,
assisted
for for government.
This area and this area
and this area, the 3
big
kingdoms,
they had assisted
for government.
Yemen
and and Iran
and Bilal al Shem.
Bilal al Shem.
But the rest of Abu Bin Nasirah, they
have the system of the tribes.
There is
no, a kingdom
for them, but they have
tribes. And the leader of the tribe,
he is a king for them.
And if he is mad with somebody,
the rest of the tribe should be mad
like like their their leader.
All of them a lot of them, maybe,
you know, 100 or 1000 of tribes in
this in this area in our peninsula,
there is no,
major,
thing to gather them
in this area or this area,
except Al Qabaliliya
and Al Asobelia.
They
you know, they they are ready to die
to to defend their honors
or their
or or to defend their words.
When when you remember when Muhammad ibn Adi,
when prophet Muhammad
went to Atar
to to to
convey his message. And, the people of Atar
did not accept him. And he tried to
enter into Mecca, and the people of Mecca
refused.
And
when when when they refused
to enter
into Mecca, there is a man, he was
a Muslim. He wasn't Muslim.
Yeah. What his name
that I mentioned right now.
And will take after.
He was a mushrik,
but he
he accepted
prophet Muhammad
to enter into Mecca
under his authority.
And he took his children
into the Kaaba, and he said, if anyone,
you know, stop Muhammad
or
if, he he is under my my work
or under my protection.
And this is, you know, something good for
Arabs.
When they said a word, they they will
die. They will be ready to die to
defend their world. And this is also as
a preparation
from Allah for
this area to receive
the last final messenger, which is prophet Mohammed
you know, belongs to a Roman
Roman Roman, you know, the Christianity.
This is,
Diana Hirkad
in in Majusiyah
in Lejoma,
the worshipper of fire
in in Majusiyah.
In. You know? Here, it was,
Judaism
and the Christianity
after that
until this time. This is it it was
Christianity
and also had some Judaism,
until Alexander
Al Madouni
came to this area, and he forced them
to go away
from this area. But the rest of Arab
Peninsula,
you know, they have only
the the system of the tribes.
And
This is Al Shukunfi
and Hiraq, which is Al Arab, and Alulk,
Bisham.
You know? They're all in in Bilal Isham.
And
it's it's the the the place of,
the
the message of Abbas.
A lot of prophets and the messengers
came to because
of Bayt al Maqdis.
And,
and Imara, the government
in Al Hejaz
Al Hejaz mean the the the whole area
different than
Yemen, and Yemen Najran, and different than Al
Huron in Iraq, and different than,
Bilad al Shej. The rest of our peninsula,
they they called it Al Al Hejaz. Bilad
al Hejaz
include
all this area,
and Bilad al Hejaz,
they did
not have a a kingdom. Why what happened
in this area, in in Yemen, or in
this area in Iraq,
or in this area in Bilal al Shirk.
But this area has
only
the the the tribe
tribe system.
And in in area of of Mecca,
the Quraysh,
they have very unique system
like what we have today
in our in your government.
They have they divided themselves because a lot
of,
the the the when prophet Muhammad
mentioned about
his tribes,
how Allah
choose him
for among the best of the best of
the best until
the his
family,
you know, from the tribe of Quraysh, and
Allah choose,
Bani Hashim
from the Quraysh,
and they choose
the house of prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam from Bani Hashim.
You know? This is the the hadith that
prophet Muhammad
mentioned
that Allah
choose him
from the best tribe among among
among his all the tribes.
And
Mecca
is, for for for,
a specific
purpose because of the pilgrimage,
and they,
were taking care of the house of Allah
and all Arabs, they they did pilgrimage every
And this the reason why
Allah honored this place and this specific tribe.
You know? They they used to have to
tread every year.
1 tread to Yemen, another tread to
to Yemen
because it's warmer down there.
Up to north because it's it's
colder over there. Up up north.
Every year, they have 2 trips. 1 go
to Daya'am,
and
one go to,
Bilad Shem,
And no one is able to stop
the caravan of Mecca.
Even in the time of Ghazul Beq, when
prophet
Mohammed tried to stop the caravan of Abu
Sufyan,
you know, it was it was big issue
for Arabs
in that time.
Even our sufyan, he ran away, and he
saved the the tribe.
He saved the caravan,
but this is it was
unusual
for any
he tried to stop the people of Mecca
and to attack them.
This is how Allah
prepared for them, you know, the good condition
and very high respect
from the rest of the tribes of Arab,
beef
even before Islam
to to,
get into their intention.
You know, this area really
has something
unique than any other places around around it.
You know, there is a lot of tribes,
but the the most important
tribe that we need to,
focus on it,
you know, the the the tribe of,
Mubarak.
Mubarak,
which is the the the the the the
biggest tribe
that, Prophet Muhammad,
came from.
And
this this tribe
Yeah. For
Quraysh,
they have very unique system.
Even we agree they did not have a
a a a system
like
like the government,
for Yemen or for kingdom
of,
Najran or or for kingdom of, Najaram or
Yemen or the here in Hara,
but they have,
they divided
all the responsibility
of Mecca
between
be between their tribes
to make all of them happy and to
to benefit themselves
from all the benefits,
you know, because after a while, when the
items and the stashes was brought abroad from
other area, and they put it into into
Kaaba or around Kaaba. And the people stuffed
it or ship were shipping
these items.
And make the that they gave for gave,
gifts to the the idols. Actually, to
the the the
the guidance called the the protectors
of idols,
and they have this,
this benefit for themselves.
Just
yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. The ruling in second,
Arabs.
You know?
Arab were divided.
FEMA can bin Hadid Qabal bin Khorbu and
Alhira.
Some part
some some of the tribes
were
near to Alhira, which is Bilal Bilal and
Iraq,
and they enrolled
themselves with the with their system.
And some of them were close to,
and they also
enrolled themselves under the kingdom of.
And
some of them were close to Yemen.
And, also, because when we have a kingdom
and we have a a strong king, you
know, everybody would like to to serve this
king to have
protection from from that king.
But
the rest of the Arab peninsula in that
time,
the like I mentioned, it was, you know,
the the the system of the tribes. And
the leader of the tribe,
his word
you know, no one can reject his word.
If he's happy with somebody,
the rest of the tribe should be happy.
If he's mad with somebody, the rest of
the tribe should be mad, and they they
they will not argue
with him. If he said, we're gonna start
the war, everybody should start the war. This
is how they respect,
you know, their leaders of of their tribes.
Yep. And the leaders of the tribes, they
have,
they have some
high status
among,
their tribes.
They used to take a benefit from Alvalima,
which is the the
the war war war,
what they call it for alvanima,
which is the money that they they they
collected after after the war.
The the this is alvanima. They used to
take a quarter of this that money for
themselves only.
And and, a a
when
the leader looked at any any item of
of this money,
he will take it. No one can reject
that. And and Nasheeda,
and Nasheeda,
of the money also
that
he choose,
before divide before distribute
the money between fighters. And
al faa al faaol,
whatever left after they divide it
and they cannot divide it, it will go
to the the leader of of the tribe.
If they have maybe 1 camel or if
they have a horse or something, they cannot
divide the camel. Half they will divide, they
will give to the leader of of the
tribes.
And this is the reason why they the
the why why they,
were fighting
to to,
achieve the the position of leader because it's
a lot of benefits
for the leaders of the Trump.
And the,
politic,
condition,
you know,
are also
before before Islam,
you know, there is
may 2 major,
things.
The first one,
there is,
you know, the high class
people,
and the rest of of of them
like like slaves.
Only
few people in the tribe, they they have
very, very high position, you you know, and
they they live, you know, their life
in in very nice way. And the rest
of,
like dictators
system,
and the rest of the tribe, they are
very poor,
but they have no opinion for anything.
They are serving,
you know, the leaders and their families. Understand?
Yeah.
Confirm
all the benefits will go to
the high class people,
and
all the the the the the rules will
go to, you know, the rest of of
the tribe.
And there is no,
there is no justice,
for for for them in in in that
time. Only
few people, they control everything,
and the rest of the people, they just
serving
the leaders
and their families.
You know, even,
some of them, they they he said the
poetry, you know,
