Dear brothers and sisters, Assalamu alaykum Warahmatullahi
wa barakatuh.
And we'll come back to our series,
the shadows,
talking about
the unfamous
companions
of our beloved prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
Our hero tonight,
it's amazing
story that we will learn
about one companion.
He only left with prophet Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam
few hours.
But
when we look at
how he
in Philippines,
the people around him
from his tribe
and from the people that they went with
him to Yathrib, to Medina,
It's amazing.
You will be amazed
when you hear about our
story or our hero tonight.
Our hero tonight is
Sayyid
Al Khayr.
Khayr, which is the name that the prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam named him.
His name, he used to be known
before Islam
by
Zaydul Hailey,
the zayd of the horses,
because he used to own a lot a
lot of horses
before Islam.
When he become a Muslim, prophet Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam named him
Zaid of the goodness,
Zaydul Khayr.
Just we would love to have a brief,
introduction
about his life before Islam,
how he used to be very generous and
very
kind,
one day
that,
a Shay Bani,
and he's a scholar, he narrated,
that one old man from Bani i'mir
told
him, one day we become
very we we become
very
starving.
We
he said,
You know, the crabs and the others
were destroyed,
and we had nothing to eat.
And
one man
from our tribe,
he did oath,
and he took his family. He went to
Alhira,
which is a a place in Iraq.
And he told his family,
wait here
until
I will go out
to
find some way to bring some money for
you, or I will die.
I will not come back without money. And
he went. He arrived his horse, and he
went.
He walked,
almost 7 days
until he reached out
the the tribe of Tai'i. Tribe of Tai'i,
which is the same tribe
of Hatim Ata'i,
the most generous person in Arab,
Peninsula.
And the same tribe for Sayeduna
Zaid
Al Khayr,
that our hero tonight.
And when he
reached out of this
land,
and he found a lot of
camels,
she camels,
and he found a small tent,
and he thought, you know, this is really
he talked to himself. This is very rich
place, and the people here, they are rich.
I will do something to take these camels
and go back to my family
in Alhira in Iraq.
And he hide himself
in in the tent, and there is an
old man was in the middle of the
tent,
and he hide himself behind him.
And before sunset,
there is a rider of the horse. The
he came
with
the hundreds of camels,
she camels,
and he has his servant
serving the camel. And
when they arrive
and he told his servant, you know, milk
the camel, the she camel, and go inside
the tent,
gave to
a shayikh
a shayikh, which is the old man, his
dad.
And the servant, he took the milk and
went inside the tent.
And the the old man, he
he took 1 or 2 sip of the
milk,
and he left the rest of the milk.
And the man, the robber or the thief,
he is behind the old man, and he
he drank all the rest of the milk.
And the servant come come back. The slave
came back came back after a while, and
he found, you know, the the the milk
is empty.
And he went outside
so happy, and he said, sir,
the your dad, he he finished the whole
milk.
And the
the the dryer, he told him, you know,
milk the other other camel for him.
And, subhanallah, it was so happy because his
dad, he finished the whole milk.
And he slaughter,
you know, the the sheep, and he he
cooked
the the lamb for his dad.
And he didn't know that somebody behind his
dad, because it was dark, and he did
not notice somebody behind
his dad hide himself.
And
that that man, he said, after they ate
and they get very deep sleep,
and I took all camels and go back
to my family in Alhira.
And he said, I was
walking for the whole night, and nobody follow
me.
And when, the following day, I saw something
like.
I I thought it's a big bird, but
after a while, I figured out that
he is the rider, the fighter
that I saw yesterday
when he was,
telling his servant or his slave
to serve his dad.
When he came near to me,
I took my arrow and I stopped between
the camels and between him. And he told
me, return back the camels for me. He
said, no. I will die
to defend the camels because
we have in we my family,
is starving
back home, and I will not go back
with nothing. I will
I'm ready to die or to take the
camels.
And the man that we were talking about
him,
the rider or the
the the pharise, he was Sayeduna
Zayed Al Hayil.
And he told him the rope in the
head of the camel,
he told him has 3 nets.
You know, which net you would like to
hit by my arrow?
And he said the middle one. And he
throw his arrow and he touch
the middle net like when he put it
by his hand.
And the the man gets scared,
and he hit the second one and the
third one. And the man, he throw his
sword, and he raise his hands up.
And he told him,
why you why you took my camels
without without
permission? And he said, because I have my
family, they are starving back home, and we
have nothing to eat.
And he,
captured
him. And he told him, you you you
gonna kill me? He said, no.
I will treat you in very nice way.
Right behind me. And he took him back
to his
tribe.
And he told him, if this is my
camel, I will be happy to give to
you. But it's not mine. This is for
my sister. But I promise you, when you
come with me and wait for a few
days,
I will,
fight against,
Bani Numair.
And if I win, I will give you
whatever I will have from,
them. And he won
more than a 100 camels.
And Sayed al Khayr,
he gave the 100 camels to that thief,
to that man, and he sent some
soldiers with him to help him out to
go back to his,
town, which is Alhira
and Alira.
This is how he was generous
before Islam.
And now when we move on to talk
about Sayyiduna Zayed Al Khayil,
after Islam,
the story started
when he heard about Islam,
when he heard about prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam in Yathrib,
and Sayeduna Zayid Al Khayil,
he is from
the the tribe of Taiil.
The tribe of Taiil, they used to worship
the idols called Al Uzza.
You you
hear
which is the sunam in Mecca, and which
is the sunam in
Taiyid.
And they used to worship also the black
camel
because black they they have, subhanAllah,
in their cultures.
They they thought that the camels are
very sacred or very holy
animals,
And they used to worship like we have
today. Some people were shaving,
cows. Some people were shaving,
mawis. Some people subhanallah.
And this is it will
tell us that we have free will
to worship whatever we want. SubhanAllah.
Allah
did not make strict for anyone to worship
him. And if you choose to worship Allah,
it's up to you. If you choose to
worship
anything else or anybody else beside Allah, it
will be your choice.
And the story of Sayyid al
Khayr,
it will
explain for us the hadith of Rasulullah
when he told Sayyidun al Mu'adh ibn Jabal
Be sincere in your religion,
and it will be more than enough if
you do few of good deeds.
And this is what we learned today
about Sayyid al
Muhallal,
Abu,
Munakaf
Al
Nabhani.
It was in 9th year after migration of
prophet Muhammad, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
He did not accept Islam in early
Islam.
Some some people will claim
we we have we have no chance
to serve the religion of Allah or to
convey the mess the message of Islam
and look at Sayedullah Zaid,
Zaid ul Khair.
Just he
stay in Islam for couple days. It's not
couple months or couple years.
And look how how he was very,
optimistic.
May Allah be pleased with him and all
the companions of Rasulillahi
The book of the Sira,
mentioned
that
when he heard about prophet Muhammad
and about a new religion
in Yathrib,
he told his people, his community,
we have to go to Yathrib to figure
out
is is that person
a true prophet or he's a liar?
And he went with a lot of people
from from his tribe. You know, he he
he went with the other
people. You know? First of them, his name,
Zurban ibn Sadood,
ibn Saduz.
Zurban Saduz, we will learn about
what his reaction
when he heard
prophet Muhammad,
deliver in the speech to his companions.
And also the second man, his name Malikob
nujubayir,
and the third one, Aamirub nujwa'in,
and, another
people, they went with his caravan
to Yathrib, to the holy city
of prophet Muhammad
When they arrived,
they tied their camels
on front of the door of the Masjid,
Masjid Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
And,
they enter into the Masjid, and the prophet
Muhammad was
delivering the speech
on the member.
And he recognized
them, subhanAllah.
He was so,
wise, sallallahu alaihi wasallam.
He recognized that those those people,
they are from
the tribe of Tayy.
And prophet Muhammad
right away when he saw them, he said,
you know, I am much better for you
guys
more than
the idols of
that you worship
beside Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. How prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam recognize that those people
came from Thai. Al Muslim
not
SubhanAllah. When when you have
al Farasa
to figure out, you know, the from the
faces or from the skin or from the
languages, SubhanAllah,
you will realize,
you know, who's this,
person
or or which country
that he comes from.
And the Nabi Yusuf Salam call,
Subhanah, he was talking to his companions,
but actually
he's talking to the the his guests now
or the visitors
they enter into the Masjid.
And
How prophet Muhammad
learned
about Al Uzza or about Al Jamali Aswad
or about the culture of,
or the.
And the people when they heard the prophet
Muhammad talking,
you know,
they were divided into 2 groups.
And the other people with him in one
side
and
in the other side.
And
he become very jealous,
and he said very
clear sentence
and he said,
I saw a man,
you know, he will control all the nicks
of Arabs.
And by Allah,
By Allah, I will not let him control
my neck, but that means I will not
follow him.
And he went to Bila De Sham, and
he shaved his head, and he become Christians,
and he died as a Christian.
But the rest of the group, Sayedoon Azayd,
Al Khayel,
and the rest of the caravan with him,
they went to Prophet Muhammad,
and Sayid Al Khayil said to him, oh,
Muhammad,
I bear witness
there is no one has right to be
worshiped,
but Allah and I bear witness that you
are the messenger of Allah. And the prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam told him, who
are you?
And the prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
he knows. Subhanahu alaihi said, no. You are
zaid al khairi.
You are not zaid off the horses.
You are zaid off the goodness
and SubhanAllah.
And Nabi shalallahu alaihi wa sallam changed his
name to optimistic name, Zayed al Khairi.
And Nabi shalallahu alaihi wa sallam,
when he,
received him, when he accepted Islam,
And and Nabiya sallallahu alaihi wa sallam told
him.
All praise be to Allah that he brought
you from your land,
from your
tribe and soften your heart
toward Islam
to become a Muslim.
And prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, you
know, took him and his people and some
companions.
I and he went to his house,
And prophet Muhammad
gave him,
like, the pillow to
to put underneath
his body,
and he told him
means lay down a little bit, and he
was shy. He said,
Few minutes just he accepted Islam, and he
learned
how to be respectful
to Prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam. And he said, it will
not happen at all. I cannot
lay down on front of you. And the
Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam gave him another
glad tiding and he said,
You have 2,
qualities
that Allah and his messenger love them
from
you.
Means,
tolerance.
Which is,
kindness.
You are kind.
And this is subhanallah,
this is his,
character.
This is something
in his character.
He did not
All praise to Allah that he make me
as what Allah and his messengers,
loves.
And he told the prophet Muhammad, gave me
300 fighters
with their horses. I will go to room
and to Bilad, a room, and I will
fight. I will
really harm them. And prophet Muhammad
was very excited with him, and he said,
who who are who you are?
Man and
and he was surprised,
just he accepted Islam few minutes ago, and
he's ready to go to fight to defend
the religion of Islam. What did we do
to defend our religion and to defend
our, beloved prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam?
And and Nabiya sallallahu alaihi wasallam
who's this man?
Subhanallah.
He's amazing. And An Nabi gave him another
glad tidings, and he said,
I forgot to tell you
that Madina in that time has a pandemic
like what we have right now. You know,
Umma Al Madina.
And and
when he came from outside Madina,
he he catch the virus, and he,
received
the the the the virus in that time.
And, subhanallah,
he stay with the prophet Muhammad
few hours, and he excused himself
to go back to his tribe
and to tell to convey the message to
his people
to become
Muslims,
all of them. And he arrived his camel,
and he went back to his place to
Kabila Tay,
and he couldn't reach his
his tribe
because he passed away in the middle of
the the road
before he returned back to his people.
He had a wishes
to go back to his people to convey
the message of Islam, and they will become
a Muslim, and he will earn all the
good deeds for them.
Islam, he, He did not
deal with any sin
because it was very short period of time,
when he accepted Islam
until when he passed away. And
see, you know, if we stay talking about
him until further time, subhanAllah, we will not
end up because he is
amazing companion
and only he spend a few hours with
the prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. How
many years that you live in Islam
practicing Islam every single day? And what did
we do for our religion, for our Islam?
Did we tell people around us about our
amazing religion?
Did we practice our religion in front of
them to make a good,
impact and a good picture and good image
about our religion. And this is, you know,
we will be asked in the day of
judgment what did we do
to convey the message of Islam and to
convey the message of the religion that Allah
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
choose for all mankind.

Zaydul Hayri
after
Islam.
