00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			To my brothers, my sisters in Islam.
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			Another episode of Roaming Ramadan,
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			lessons on the road here in the beautiful
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			city of the prophet
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:18
			in Madinah,
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			specifically
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			at the mountain
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:22
			of Uhud
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:24
			and the archers hill.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			And as I'm standing here, I'm
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			recalling the battle of Uhud and how it
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			was in the favor of the Muslims
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33
			initially
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			until
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			the people who were guarding
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			the Muslims, basically the archers who the prophet
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			told him to hold your positions
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			even if we were winning the battle. Even
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			if you saw us celebrating the victory,
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:51
			do not move from your position.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			Because they have seen the Muslims were
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			overpowering the disbelievers
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			during the battle of Uhud,
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			they thought that that's it. The battle is
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			over. But they did not get any instruction
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			from the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, the
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:07
			leader, to leave their positions. And as a
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			result, what happened is, as you can see,
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			this is part of the mount of, mountain
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			of Uhud.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:15
			So people came the enemies came from behind
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			the mountain seeing the Muslims left have left
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			their positions,
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:21
			and the Muslims were ambushed in the middle
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:21
			between
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:23
			the archers
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:26
			and between the Mount of Uhud. The lesson
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			is, my brothers and sisters in Islam, when
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:28
			you
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:32
			believe in your leaders, those who are
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			instructing you towards goodness,
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:37
			so long as they are preaching Allah's words
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			and the messages of Allah's words and teachings,
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:41
			stick to their
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:42
			leadership.
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			Try to do your job to the best
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			of your ability. You may disagree with them.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:50
			They may annoy you. You may not like
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			their characters. Whatever the case may be, so
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			long as you all work for the same
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:57
			cause, don't ever go against them unnecessarily. Otherwise,
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:57
			a disaster
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			like the disaster of Uhud may happen because
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			what happened is initially we were we were
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:05
			winning the battle. We were overpowering our enemies.
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:05
			But,
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:08
			after disobeying the leader,
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:08
			the,
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			70 of the companions of the prophet sallallahu
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			alaihi wasallam were killed. 70 of the most
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:14
			popular, most,
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			important companions were killed, and one of them
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			is the uncle of the prophet Hamza
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			ibn Abdul Muqtalid. May Allah be pleased with
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			him. Later, we'll come closer
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			and show you a
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:30
			scene of the graveyard of the shohada of
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			Uhud, which all of them were buried behind
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			me. I will we'll go and and see
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:36
			them inshallah. But, the beauty of this mountain
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			I want you, Ibrahim, to go all the
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39
			way to just show the mountain on the
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			top over there. One of the beautiful
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			one of the best
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			side that you can look at.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			We were talking earlier with my family and,
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:50
			as we have seen so many mountains in
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			Madinah, but this is the only mountain during
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54
			the day you feel like it's a little
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:55
			bit of reddish
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			in color, unlike other mountains that are a
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:00
			bit darker when you look at them closely.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:03
			And, subhanallah, the prophet Muhammad said that this
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:04
			mountain, the mountain of Uhud,
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:06
			it loves us
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			and we love it. The prophet
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:10
			attributed
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:11
			an emotion
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:12
			to an inanimate
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:14
			object like the mountain.
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			Now you may wonder how a mountain, an
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:18
			inanimate
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:19
			object,
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:22
			you know, collection of rocks, how could it
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:25
			love or have that ability to love? Now
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			we may not understand this at all because
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:28
			the prophet
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30
			also in his seerah,
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			there is a trunk tree that cried
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:34
			when, he left its side,
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			when the Muslims built a pulpit in the
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:38
			Masjid of Madinah.
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:40
			They heard the cry of a tree. How
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			could a a tree cry? We don't know.
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			These are some of the miracles that Allah
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			gave to the believers to
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:50
			reassure their faith, to give them comfort that
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:53
			you are upon the truth. The mountain of
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:55
			Uhud was talked to by the prophet, prophet,
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:58
			One day, the prophet was on the top
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			of the mountain. During the battle of Uhud,
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			he, Omar Ibn Khattab
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05
			may Allah be pleased with him as well
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:06
			as,
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:08
			Abu Bakr Sadiq And
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:12
			the mountain shook, and some of the scholars
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			say the mountain shook a little bit because
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			it was very happy that
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:17
			these personalities
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			are upon it. And the prophet said
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:24
			Be still,
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			oh, for upon you is a prophet referring
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:30
			to himself and a siddiq, an honest, a
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:31
			truthful person, and that's Abu Bakr
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:35
			was Shahidan and 2 martyrs.
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			And this was a reference to Umar al
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:41
			Khattab who passed away, who was killed
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			while he leading the Fajr prayer in the
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			masjid of the prophet and
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			of man ibn Affan. May Allah be al
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			Qizr alimu was surrendered
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:50
			by hypocrites,
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			and he was murdered. May Allah
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:54
			accept
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			the
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:57
			the effort of the early generation
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			who brought Islam to us and did not
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			leave us in the dark and cared about
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:04
			the personal gains. Rather, they care only about
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:05
			the message of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. And
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:08
			as a result, we come here day after
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			day, week after week, month after month, year
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			after year. People come and visit and see
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:14
			those sites where Islam became victorious.
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:17
			The station which brought Islam into existence,
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:30
			So my brothers, my sisters in Islam,
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			this is the site of the shuhada of
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:36
			Uhud, those martyrs who were killed during the
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			battle of Uhud.
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib is
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			one of the shuhada,
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			and they were all buried here together. And
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			inshallah, on the day of judgment, they would
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:48
			be resurrected together
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:50
			for.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:55
			We greet them as the prophet taught us.
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:01
			Peace be upon you, all inhabitants of the
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			grave among the believers,
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:04
			males and females.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:08
			You
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			have gone ahead of us, and we shall
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:11
			follow
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:15
			We ask Allah
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:17
			for yourselves and ours.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:19
			Mala'afiyah, forgiveness,
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:20
			pardoning,
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			Ameenu Adrani.
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:25
			We have sacrificed their lives to bring Islam
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:27
			to us so appreciate their lives, study their
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			lives, and may Allah
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			gather us together
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:33
			with al Habib Muhammad
