AI: Summary ©

The history of Sayiduna Oughtbaibnu, the son of Sayyiduna's father, is discussed. The plan included sending 300 companions to conquer Al Ubocamp and opening a strong city in Persian. Sayidna Omar, the leader of the Persian army, gave the city of Al Basra to the Persian army and instructed them to stay behind the army and raise the banners and flags. When Sayidna Omar took on the task of conquering Al U benefici, he instructed the city of Al Basra to not return to Al Basra or Al U benefici. The unique tactic of unite Muslims with Islam in Al Basra and to have a temporary life is emphasized as a way to inspire their values.

00:03:00 --> 00:03:03
			on the river of Dijla,
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:04
			which is very
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:05
			beautiful city,
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:09
			and it was a big,
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:10

			Pergian,
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:15

00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			He got the news that,
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:35
			Persian armies,
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			are so difficult for Muslims to,
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			feed them or to
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			win over them. And
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:46
			he was so worry
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:47
			because
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49
			most of the companions, they already
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:50
			outside,
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			defending the religion of Allah, spreading the message
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:55

00:03:56 --> 00:03:56
			everywhere,
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			and only few companions left,
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:01
			behind in Al Madinah.
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:05
			And Sayidna Umar was worried a lot who's
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:07
			the the one he can trust
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:08
			to send,
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12
			for the army, Muslim army to conquer
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:13

00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			which is the city in Al Iraq.
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:20
			And while he was sleeping thinking about
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:21
			the companions,
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			who's in in presence in the Medina,
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			they they able to go to conquer al
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:28
			Ubillah,
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:30
			and the name of Sayyiduna
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:31
			A'utba,
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			ibn Hazwan, came to Sayyiduna
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			Umar ibn Khattab
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			And he said, yeah. This is the one
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			that I was looking for.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:43
			You know? Because,
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:51
			You know, he said to himself,
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:54
			this is the one that I was looking
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			for for
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:57
			him because Badr,
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:01
			knows him and Uhud knows him. Al Khandaq
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			knows him. And
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			all the battles of Rasulullah
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			know, Sayyiduna Utba.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			He was,
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:11
			a scaled
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:12
			archers.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			And Sayyidina Umar, he sent,
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:26
			for him and he came,
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			to Sayyidina Umar and Sayyidina Umar told him,
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:32
			I will assign you as a leader, as
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:34
			a as a commander,
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:35
			as a captain
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:37
			for the army
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			to go to Al Ubula and to conquer
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			Al Ubula, to open it because
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:46
			the the this city has a lot of
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			influence,
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			for the Persian
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:50
			armies.
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			They took a lot of fund and a
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			lot of help from this,
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:55
			city.
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:59
			And Sayidina Omar wants to stop
		
00:05:59 --> 00:05:59
			any,
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:00
			supplies
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			goes to,
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			Persian,
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:04
			armies.
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:06
			And he assigned
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			for for him 300
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			and,
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:11
			few fighters.
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			When you remember the number,
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:18
			it's similar with the number that prophet Muhammad
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			had in the battle of Badj.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			300 companions
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:23
			and,
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:24
			some,
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			few companions.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:28
			And this is exact number
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:31
			or similar with the same number. And Sayyidina
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:35
			Umar told Sayyidina Aoutba, go first, and I
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:35
			will
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:36
			send another,
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:41
			people to support you later on. And Sayiduna,
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:43
			Omar, he told,
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:45
			Sayiduna Utba,
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:46
			Othba,
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:48
			you know,
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:50
			I I I will send you to the
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			people of Al Ubula,
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:53
			and
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:55
			and this is the,
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:58
			a clear fortress
		
00:06:59 --> 00:06:59
			for
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:01
			Perjian armies
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:02
			or for
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:04
			for our enemies.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:07
			And fear Allah, Subhanahu wa ta'ala, call them
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:08
			out,
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:11
			invite them to Islam. If they accept from
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:14
			you, no harm. Live with them
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			as as a brothers and,
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:18
			and fear Allah
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:22
			and don't look at the duniya matters.
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:25
			Look at the word from Allah
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:27
			And
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:28
			his wife
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:32
			went with him, the wife of Sayyidina Ootba,
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:33
			Ibn Ghazwan,
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:35
			and the other sisters,
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:37
			the wives of other fighters
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:39
			within his army.
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:41
			And he did amazing,
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:42
			technique.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			You know? He has only 300
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:47
			fighters,
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:51
			and Sayid Omar sent him to open Al
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:53
			Ubula, which is the very strong
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:54
			city,
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:56
			helping
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:57
			the Persian armies
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			and the the the
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:01
			armies
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:05

00:08:05 --> 00:08:07
			lot a lot of 1,000,
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:09
			but he was so smart.
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:10
			Then this is when Allah
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:13
			granted you with
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:15
			a good way of life.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:17
			You have to increase
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:19
			the knowledge Allah
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:21
			gave you and use it
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:24
			in good way to benefit yourself and to
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			benefit your society,
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:29
			to benefit the people around you. And Sayeduna
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:31
			Othba, he was very smart.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:34
			He told his wife and the other ladies
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:35
			with her,
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:39
			you know, stay behind us. And he gave
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:41
			them, you know, a lot of banners,
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			you like like the flags.
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:48
			And they they they he told them, stay
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:49
			behind the army,
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			Muslim's army,
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54
			and try to take the dust and throw
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			it up,
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			to make, like,
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:59
			smoke or, like, some,
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:02
			dust behind the army
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:03
			to
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:04
			to,
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:07
			deceive the enemies that the the army of
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:09
			Muslim means it's a huge
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:10
			army
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:14
			or a big number. And, actually, they only
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			300 fighters and some some,
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:19
			extra.
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:21
			It's not even 400
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:22
			people.
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:25
			And this is what the the plan that
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:28
			he had, and he told his wife and
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			the ladies with her just to stay behind
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:32
			our army
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:36
			and raise the banners and raise the flags
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:39
			that I handed to you. And through the
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:43
			the the dust up, look like there's a
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:44
			lot of horses running
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			and make a lot of dust behind the
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:48
			the army.
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:52
			And he arrived first with the army with
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:53
			with the army,
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:55
			Muslims' army.
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			And when the people of,
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58
			Persia
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:01
			look at the the army and they said,
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:05
			there is a lot of horses back there,
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:07
			and they get scared.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:08
			And they look
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:10
			for any
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:11
			light,
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:12
			expensive,
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:16
			stuff, and they collected their stuffs, and they
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:19
			took their ships, and they ran away
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:21
			through the river of Disla.
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			And
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:25
			entered into the city
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:27
			without a single,
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:29
			blood or a single,
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:33
			drop of blood. And this is was
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:36
			a very unique tactic from Sayyiduna
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:38
			Utba ibn Ghazwan.
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:39
			And after
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			he,
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:44
			conquered the the city, Al Ubillah, and he
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:48
			stay over 6 months over months over there,
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:51
			and he felt that the people really
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:54
			changed their mind and just they
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:57
			they took the easy life, and they used
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:01
			to to work hard in Madinah, and and
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:02
			there is, there is,
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:03
			no a lot
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:07
			of easiness in Madinah. It's very tough
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			place comparing with the
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:11
			in Iraq,
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:14
			near to the river, near to the water.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			A lot of guardians, a lot of
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			fruits, a lot of,
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			a lot of
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:21
			from Allah
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:23
			a lot of bounties.
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:26
			And he didn't find and he didn't feel
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:30
			comfortable to stay longer in this environment, and
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			he choose to go back to Madinah,
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:33
			and he assigned
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:36
			a leader for the army. And by the
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:37
			way, he
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:41
			designed the city of al Basra. If you
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:44
			search the city of al Basra today in
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:48
			Al Iraq, Sayyir Na'utba ibn Ghazwan, he he
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:49
			is the engineer
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:52
			that designed the al Basra by himself,
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			and he did the instruction
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:57
			for the whole city of al Basra
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:00
			instead of the city of al Ubula.
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:03
			Because al Basra, it's far away from al
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:07
			Ubula, few miles, and he just to to,
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:08
			raise
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:11
			the the the city of Al Ubulla and
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:14
			to create the new city belongs to Muslims,
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:17
			which is the city of Al Basra, and
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:17
			Al Basra
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:20
			today is the the 3rd biggest
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			city in Al Iraq.
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25
			And after that, he returned back to Al
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:25
			Madina,
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:29
			and he asked Sayeduna Omar to execute
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:31
			him from the responsibility
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:33
			to be a leader, to be a commander.
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:36
			But when we look at ourselves today, if
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:37
			anyone has a chance
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:39
			to be a leader or to be in
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:43
			charge, people will jump just to take the
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:44
			to take the responsibility
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:47
			to show off on front of people. If
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:50
			they are looking for the rewards from Allah,
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:53
			it doesn't matter if you work in
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:56
			ahead of the people or in the in
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:58
			the in the back of the army. It
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:00
			doesn't matter because we only have one intention
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:03
			to be pleased with Allah.
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:05
			And this is what we need to learn
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:06
			from.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:12
			He, conquered
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:16
			in the same year that he passed away,
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:20
			which is 17 years after the hijrah of
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:20
			Rasulillahi
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:25
			and when he came back to Al Madina
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:28
			and he asked Sayidna Umar, could you excuse
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:32
			me from the responsibility that you gave me?
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			And Sayidna Umar refused. He said no.
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:36
			I cannot trust anyone
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:40
			to have the position that I gave you.
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:44
			And he commanded Sayyidina Uthba to go back
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:45
			again to
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			or to Al Iraq,
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:48
			and he did supplication.
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:50
			He asked
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:52
			Allah and he said,
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:02
			Oh, Allah, do not return me back
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:04
			to Al Basra or to Al Ubillah,
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:06
			and Allah accepted
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:07
			his supplication.
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:10
			Before he came to Al Madinah,
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:13
			he did a very good speech
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:15
			for the people for Muslims
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:17
			who stay in
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:21
			or in Al Basra, and he told them,
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:27
			indeed, our temporary life almost to end
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:30
			and to move away from us.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:37
			And you will go to another,
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:38
			place,
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:40
			permanent place,
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:43
			which is the the the the paradise
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:44
			in hereafter.
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:50
			And you are able to move to the
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:52
			other life, which is hereafter
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:54
			with the goodness that you
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56
			have done in your life.
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:02
			He's talking about himself now. You know, if
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:05
			you look at me, I was the number
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:08
			7 that who accept he accepted Islam
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10
			and he explained,
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:18
			And we did not have a food in
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:19
			that time
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:22
			except the leaves of the trees.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:26
			And he tried to remind people, don't get
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:29
			into the worldly life deep like this. Don't
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:31
			forget the hereafter and just, you know, when
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:34
			you look at people today and you you
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:36
			give them a a chance
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:37
			to choose between,
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:41
			temporary life or the eternal life,
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:44
			most of them, they will choose the temporary
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46
			life. They will say, just give me a
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:48
			chance to live a good life here, and
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:51
			when we die, you know, we will figure
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:52
			out how it will work out.
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:55
			No. We have to to understand
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:59
			that our life today is temporary life. It's
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:03
			not eternal life. Our real life, it will
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:03
			be there
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:05
			in paradise
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			when we return back to our
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:11
			home, own home, which is the paradise
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:12
			that,
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:15
			our forefather Adam was there. And may Allah
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:19
			gathered all of us with our beloved prophet
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20
			Muhammad in
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:23
			hereafter in highest level in paradise.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			Now when he did supplication to Allah, oh,
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:28
			Allah, I don't like to go back again
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:32
			because it's only, you know, people working for
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:35
			the worldly life. I would love to work
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:36
			for hereafter,
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:39
			And Allah accepted his supplication
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:40
			and his camel,
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			you know, just,
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:45
			fell down and he
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:49
			dropped from his camel and he passed away.
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:52
			Few miles away from Madinah.
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:55
			Just he left the Madinah and he wasn't
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:58
			agreed to go back to, Al Ubillah again
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:00
			or to Al Basra and to have very
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:04
			luxury life, and he he doesn't like that.
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:05
			And he asked Allah,
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:08
			oh, Allah, do not take me
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:11
			back. And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala took his
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:13
			soul out of his body and,
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:15
			17 years
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			after the migration of prophet Muhammad
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:22
			in the time of Sayyidina Umar ibn Khattab
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:23
			when he was Khalifa,
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:27
			and this is what we learn about our
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:28
			hero tonight,
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:31
			Sayyidina Othba Ibnu Ghazwan
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:33
			And
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:35
			our
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:37
			our question for tonight,
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:42
			just I would like for my brothers and
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:43
			sister, especially
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:45
			the young men and women, please,
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:46
			you know,
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:49
			take care of this knowledge,
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:50
			you know,
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:52
			to to help yourself out,
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:55
			to imitate the companions of Rasulullah
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:57
			and
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:00
			to to be in the safe side when
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:03
			you when you have a good intention and
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:05
			a good work, you will be in the
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:06
			safe side.
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:08
			Our question tonight
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:09
			is
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:10
			what
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:12
			the unique tactic that
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:17
			did to conquer
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:18
			or
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:20
			to conquer the city,
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:21
			for,
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:23
			Persia, the city
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:25
			for,
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:26
			Pergian
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:27
			armies,
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:28
			which is
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:30
			near to
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:32
			the river of Digila.
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:33
			He did
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:34
			a wonderful
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:36
			plan
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:37
			to
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:38
			deceive
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:42
			the enemies that his army it's a huge
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:44
			army. It's very big army.
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:48
			Actually, it wasn't big. It was only 300
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:49
			or 400
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:50
			fighters,
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:53
			And the people of Persia,
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:55
			they left their,
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:58
			lands and their houses, and they left everything,
		
00:18:58 --> 00:18:59
			and they run away.
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			They they arrived their ships,
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:04
			from the river of Dijla, and they run
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:08
			away. And they enter into the city without
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:09
			fighting, without
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:13
			a single drop of blood. And this is,
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:15
			to tell
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:16
			that Muslims
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:19
			are smart. And if they have a chance
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:22
			to serve their society and their community,
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:25
			no one can compete with them. And this
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:26
			is what we,
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:28
			need to be proud of
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:31
			our our brothers and sisters
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:34
			in Islam. May Allah
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:36
			help all of us out
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:38
			to to do good and to stay firm
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:41
			in our religion, to imitate our beloved prophet
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:42
			Muhammad
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:44
			and his companions,
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:58
			brother
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:00
			Ahmed Al Jamel.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			He is the winner for,
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:04
			last episode.
