Dear brothers and sisters,
Welcome back to our series,
the shadows.
And today, inshallah,
we will have
amazing
hero for tonight.
Our hero tonight is
Sayyiduna
Majza'atuh
ibn Thawr
As Sadu Sayyid.
You might heard about his name before or
not,
but trust me, this is
amazing,
companion
from,
our beloved prophet Muhammad
and he
spend
the rest of his life,
fighting
to defend the religion of Allah and to
defend,
Muslims army
until he get killed as a martyr
in the last battle that he,
did, which is the battle of,
Tostar,
one
place
of,
Bilad Faris.
Tostar,
when we look at the map,
we will find Tustar
near to Al Ahwaz,
and Al Ahwaz is a a place of,
the region of,
Khorasan,
which is in the,
when you look at the map, you will
find
in the,
northwest
of Iran today,
up north of Iraq.
And this is,
it was important
area
for,
Roman
Empire.
When we look back a little bit, we
we will find there is 2
empires.
It's very,
strong
empires,
for
a long
time, which is
al al Limbratoreia
alpharizia,
the Persian
Empire,
and al Limbratoreia
al Byzantia
or a Romania,
Roman
Empire.
Roman Empire was in the west.
When you look at the map,
it was at the west, which is the
Biladusham,
Syria and
Palestine
and Jordan and Lebanon.
And when we look at the east of
the map a little bit,
up north of Al Medina,
you will find the,
Persian empire,
which is
al Imperatoria
al Farisiyya
or Bilad Faris.
They call today Iran.
And after prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
passed away
and Sayyidun Abu Bakr al Sadiq,
he cleaned up the Arab,
Arab Peninsula
after Khurub I Riddeh,
and he sent Saeed Nakhalid ibn Walid
to Bilad Al Iraq
to fight against
the Roman to, against
Persian Empire.
And
day after day, they conquered
the cities
and they move up
to make
the, Al Khaliya Al Khilaf al Islamiyah
bigger and bigger every single day
until Sayyidina Abu Bakr Sadiq passed away
and Sayyidina Umar,
he become the 2nd Khalifa
for Muslimi.
In that time,
Sayyiduna
Omar,
he choose
another leader for Muslims army in the state
of Sayyiduna Khalid ibn Walid. He choose Sayyiduna,
Abu Musal Ashari
to be a leader for
Muslim,
army.
And Sayyiduna Abu Musal Ash'ari, he was in
Al Kufa, Al Kufa today in Iraq,
and he sent
the letter
or the command
to Sayyidina Abu Musal Ashari
and told him, you know, prepare your your
army, your jayesh, your,
people,
and
join the people in Al Basra,
the army of Muslim in Al Basra,
and go
with the 2 of them go toward,
Bilad Faris
after
the battle of Al Qadisiyyah.
Battle of Al Qadisiyyah, it was 14,
of,
migration of prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi sallam. And
after they went get won in Al Qadisiyah,
you know, the Hormuzan Hormuzan, which is
was the leader of,
of,
Bilad,
the the Faris,
army,
and he ran away
toward Bilad Faris.
And he collected,
you know, he called out,
you know, people to come together
and to prepare a big army
to come back again to fight against Muslimin.
And Sayidna Umar, he got the news,
and he commanded Sayidna Abu Musal Ashari to
go to fight
against
Alhurmazan.
He was a leader
of Perdian,
army.
And he told him,
take,
you know, our hero tonight,
take him
as a leader with you, which is Sayyiduna
Magzsa'a
ibn Thawr
As Sadusi.
And Sayyiduna Abu Musal Ash'ari, he accepted the
command of Sayyiduna Umar and he assigned Sayyiduna
Madzah
on the Maysarah
of the army,
the left
the left side of the army. He was
a leader of the left side
of the army.
And they went to near to Tostar.
Tostar, like I mentioned, it's it's, the south
of Iran
and the north of Iraq.
Near to the river,
you know, they they called
the
hill. This this river this city, it's amazing,
in in in has amazing
instruction.
And,
they belted
as a as a horse,
you know, like, the image of the horse,
and it it was belted on the top
or in the in the top of the
hill.
And
as
the water,
comes into the the city
through the tunnels and through,
the the
the the different
mechanic
way
to raise the water up
for this city, Tustar,
they call Tustar,
and has a very strong,
fortress
for,
Pergian
Empire.
But Sayyidina Abu Musal Ashari,
he arrived over there and he found a
very huge,
fence around this the city
and
also a big trench
around the city. You remember the Battle of
the Trench,
happened,
in in,
5 years after migration
of our our beloved prophet Muhammad, they
have the same
way. They dug the trench around the the
city of Toster,
and they filled it with the water. No
one is able to cross
this trench.
What happened, Sayyidina Abu Musa Al Ash'ari, he
was a leader, and Sayyidina Magzaibnu
Thawr as Sadusi,
He
was the second,
person of the army.
And they were surrounding the the city of
Tostar.
How many months?
SubhanAllah.
18 months,
year and half.
They were waiting. They couldn't
enter into
the city of Tostar.
18 months.
And they
started
80 battles.
Samaneen,
Ma'araka.
SubhanAllah. Every every while, they start the battles,
but they were not able to enter into
the city of Tostar.
And Sayyidun Ahmedzah, by himself,
he killed a 100 fighters,
of Persian army
by himself.
Each time when he had the the the
chance,
of
fencing
by his sword, he killed a 100 fighters.
Can you imagine? He killed a 100 by
himself.
But how many that he killed during the
the the biggest battle when they enter into
the the city of Tustr?
Allah knows best. But we will see how
he was
a very,
smart,
leader.
1 day, Sayeduna Abu
Musal Ashari
was sitting around
the the city of Tostar and looking at
the fans. It's very, very strong fans.
And they said, this is the the the
earliest
and the strongest
fans
was built
on Earth.
Even before the the the China fans, the
fans of China,
the the greatest,
fans in in China, this was before that.
And what happened after that, suddenly,
Sayyidina Abu Musal Ash'ari
found,
somebody from inside
the fortress
sent out
his arrow with the letter,
and he wrote some words in this letter.
And he said to Sayidina Abu Musal Ashari,
you know, I trusted you, all Muslims,
more than Alhur Musan. Alhur Musan, which is
the leader,
of the Persian army.
I trusted you
and I prefer
to join your army. This is after 18
months. Can you imagine?
A year and a half, they were
surrounding the city and there is no hope
for them to enter into
the fortress
that,
Persian
Empire had for the city of Tostar.
And he told Saeed Abu Musa Al Ash'ari,
if you give me your promise,
I will
give you the secret how,
to enter into the fortress
of Toaster.
And Sayed ibn Abu Musa, he wrote that
we will we will give you,
the promise. We will not harm you, and
we you have a a man, and he
sent the the the paper again with the
arrow. And
the the man, he came down
from
very,
unique,
place.
You know, there is a a one exit
only
underneath
the the the the city
as a tunnel
under underneath the water. SubhanAllah.
And he came out and he had the
meeting with the Sayyidina Abu Musal al Shari,
and he told him, I want you to
choose a very smart and very nerd and
a
brief,
man,
and he will come with me. I will
show him the map, how to enter into,
the the the fortress of Toaster.
And Sayyid bin Abu Musa, he called
the first man after him in the army.
Who's the first man after him?
Our hero tonight, Sayyid
And he told him, I want you to
find a good man to go with the
the Persian,
man
to show him the map, how to enter
into the fortress of Tostar.
And Sayyidina Abu Sayyidina told
Sayyidina Abu Musa Al Ash'ari, why you do
not choose me? I will be happy to
do that.
And Sayyidina Abu Musa Al Ash'ari told him,
if you choose to go, I will be
happy to. And
he went with the Persian,
man,
and
they swim underneath
the the the city,
and they went in they arrived
in the middle of the city of Tostar.
And Sayidun Abu Musa told Sayidun Amazza,
don't do anything. Don't make any trouble. Just
discover the area. You you have to know
the map, how to go, and how to
come back, and do not do anything. But
when they arrived inside the city,
the Persian man, he told them, this is
Alhur Musan,
the leader of Persian army. And Sayyidun al
Majza, he was almost to kill him, but
he remember
the wasiyyah,
the well from Sayyiduna
Abu Musa al Ashari. And he said, I
control myself because I do not like to
do anything that I have no permission to
do it. And he returned back again swimming
all the way till he went out to
reach out Sayyiduna Abu Musal Ash'ari.
And after
he discovered the area
and he
asked Sayyiduna Abu Musal Ash'ari to select
300 fighters.
Mean Asjjah
al Muqatilin.
And Sayyiduna Madza ibn Thawris Sadusi, he was
a leader
of this mission.
The mission, they they will swim
underneath the fortress
of Tostar, the city of Tostar,
almost 2 hours
swimming.
And
the 300,
they start Sayyidina Majdza'a told them, you you
you need to choose very light clothes.
This is first because they will swim. If
they have heavy clothes, they might drown.
You just
you have to just cover your body with
the very light clothes. This is the first.
2nd, put your sword underneath the clothes because
we gonna use the our swords when when
we when we reach the out the the
the fortress from inside.
And
the tunnel underneath the fortress, it was so
difficult even to swim.
And after Sayedun Hamidzeh,
arrived to another the the the the shore
in the other side,
he lost
240
fighters.
They're drowning.
Only
80 fighters left for him. Can you imagine?
It was so difficult. It was impossible mission
for him,
and the the the the other people with
him.
240
of them, they get killed.
You know, the the tunnel swallow them up.
Only 80 of them, they were saved in
the other in the other side. Anyway,
now they started
swimming in the last 3rd of the night
to arrive over there,
by fajr time
and to surprise,
you know, the Persian army. And this is
was the plan.
To surprise them, they will not be able
to prepare themselves to fight.
And this is why he he had amazing
plan. When they arrived, it was almost fajr
time,
and they killed the the the guards in
the in in the beginning. You know, they
they used to to take care of the
fortress from outside,
and they killed and they enter into the
city.
Eighty fighters.
They have Sayidun Hamidza,
ibn Nawzsa'u al Saudusayi.
He was a leader. He was a leader
for the 300
fighters, but
240,
they get killed in the tunnel. The tunnel
swallow them up. They
drowned. Now he has only 80.
And when they arrived,
they start fight and they have a sign,
a signal for the Muslim army outside. They
said, when we say when when we magnify
Allah subhanahu ta'ala, this is our signal.
Just come the come to to the the
the gate and we will open the gate
for you. And they start takbir. Allahu Akbar.
Allahu Akbar
and the Muslim army outside,
they recognized
the the signal from Sayyidun al Majza'a,
and they
went toward the gate of the fortress.
And they opened the gate for them, and
Muslims enter into the the city of Tostar,
and they started,
fighting,
against,
Persian
army. And
Sayidun Ahmedzza'a,
he has a mission
in his mind
to kill Alhurmuzan.
Alhurmuzan,
you know, he was he he was a
a a a leader in Ma'arqid al Qadisiyyah.
If you remember,
you know,
al Qadisiyyah
was
in 14 years after migration of prophet Mohammed,
it was in Iraq. Al Qadisiyyah, it was
between Muslims army
and Persian army, but was a little little
bit down
for to to Saudis. It was in Iraq.
They did not move up toward Bilad
Faris, toward Iran yet.
When when they won in Al Qadisiyyah,
Al Khormuzad
Hadha,
he moved up to Bilad,
Faris, to Iran.
And he,
was,
hiding himself inside
the city of Tostar, the force the forcher
forchers of Tostar.
And until Sayyidina Abu Musal Asharay
reached out for him, and they started
the the battle of Tostar.
It was
17 years after Hijratul Nabiyi sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
3 years after
the battle of Al Qadhi Sayyid.
And Sayyidu Namadzai'a,
he was looking for Alhurmuzan.
He wants to kill Alhurmuzan,
and he saw him, and he almost go
to fight
him against him,
and his people hide him. SubhanAllah, he disappeared.
And say,
he was waiting
for Alhurmuzan
to see him
one more time. When he saw him another
time, he ran toward him and he has
his sword.
And they
start
fencing to to against each other.
Mubarazah, Be Safe.
And each one of them has a chance
to hit the other person.
And Sayyidun Majza'a,
he hit Alhurmazan,
but wasn't
enough to kill him. But Alhurmazan,
he hit Sayyidun Majza'a ibn Thawr
al Sidusayi
by his sword, and he killed Sayid al
Najza.
He passed away in this,
battle, the Battle of Tostar.
They capture Alhur Musan and they took him
to Sayyiduna Umar ibn Khattab in Madinah
as a presence, as a
I ask Allah
to help all of us out
to imitate
the companions or of our beloved prophet Muhammad
salallahu alaihi wa sallam. Especially,
the one
who,
gave him his
soul for the sake of Allah subhanahu ta'ala
and he defended the religion of Allah and
