Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa salatu salam ala CD mursaleen Allah Allah Muhammad wa ala early he was hi behave woman severe hombre Hassan Illa Yomi Deen woebot salam aleikum wa rahmatullah.
Alhamdulillah. We have in the previous lesson we finished
the hijra of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, I just want to point out a couple of things regarding a job. The first thing is that the hedger everything in the hegira. pinned upon Abu Bakr, Siddiq rhodiola. The entire organization from the beginning to the end, pin was pinned upon Abu Bakar, Speaker of the month to organizing the mounts to the food to having the tracker, it was himself. It was his daughter, his son is freed slaves. Everything depended upon arrival because of the color of the land. So the greatness we know the greatness of an angel.
All of it depended on Abu Bakr Siddiq.
The other thing is regarding Egypt and the importance of Egypt, the Sahaba or the Allah left their homes for the sake of Allah, Pamela.
And for us who live in the West as a minority, can you imagine a day if the day ever came that you would have to leave your homes, to go and live somewhere else where you were born, where you grew up, which was really the only kind of culture that you really knew? This is what the Sahaba the Allah and him did. This is the sacrifice that the Sahaba the Allah and whom
undertook for the sake of the deen. And this is why this is the virtue of hijab. So anybody even until today, maybe the sinner Syrians, the Rohingya, whoever the Palestinians, whoever it may be, when they leave their homes for the sake of Allah, Pamela Bella, they are fulfilling the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam now abubaker on the Allahu and the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, they reach Koba. So when they reach Baba, the prophet SAW Allah and he was alone is with a robot or the Allah I know the Sahaba would come out every single day and answer every single day waiting for the message of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, when the sun would go
up and it would be unbearable for them to remain then they will go back to their homes. The first person who noticed that the message of Allah Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah had come was a Jew. So he shouted, he informed the Muslims that the individual that you are waiting for has come. So the Sahaba of the Allah Adam came they welcome the Prophet Allah slumped in a place called khumba. Initially, actually, they weren't even sure which one was the prophets, Allah Allah until they saw Abu Bakar on the alarm who begin to shade the Messenger of Allah Allah Allah is and then they realized that this is Abubakar and this is the Messenger of Allah Subhan Allah Allah Himself. So the
Prophet is unless alum came and he stayed initially for a number of days in a place called Koba. Now Koba is just on the outskirts or what we know as mainstream Medina now it's a part of Medina but at that time, it was just on the outskirts of Medina. What did the first thing that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi Salaam do? He stayed approximately two weeks in Koba, what did you do? So Pamela, the first thing that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam do when he reached Koba would build a Masjid.
Why? Because the masjid is the hub of any community.
those communities who move to a certain place in USA Today, when they move to a certain place that the first thing that they do is create a machine one of the first thing that they do is create a machine when there's a community. This is the son of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam. The virtue of the machinery of Cobra is what the virtue of machine Cobra is that Allah mentions in his Quran. It says the masjid assists Allah taqwa, men on with a Yeoman, that that Masjid whose foundations were created from the first day upon duck walk. For the first day that it was created. It was created on taqwa, hopko and taco Murphy. It is more befitting that you stand in it. How did
the province of Muslim create machine, a machine jacoba the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam what he did, he took a break and he laid a foundation. The second person to lay that foundation was no other than Abubakar Sadiq or the Allah Anu. The third person to lay a brick was almost rhodiola
So, this shows you know often you see that people when they build a machine, they get a pious person and he places the first break. This comes from the summer of machinery. Koba, son of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam and Allah Subhana Allah said the machine assists Allah taqwa. This was a machine where the foundations were placed upon the Aqua who placed the foundations, the profit and loss of walking around without the alarm and home.
After staying there approximately two weeks, probably someone who lives now moves to Central Medina was the first thing that messenger of Allah does when he moves to Central Medina. He builds a Nether Masjid, the Sahaba before the Prophet salaallah alayhi wa sallam built a Masjid in central Medina mushy Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam they would pray in a stable is a place where they would keep keep the open field but the the goats etc, will be kept there. This is where the Sahaba the Allah at home, would pray. So when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam came, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam saw a piece of land and he asked him who this land belongs to, and they said they belong
to to your teams. And they said obviously you will not we will give it to you the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, No, we don't want it, we will pay for it. We will pay for it. Now the answer? Obviously they were known for their generosity, such as the generosity the Sahaba the Allah and them say that we have never ever seen a group of people who are more generous than the unsolved You are the very famous generation of money but overall the Allahu the prophets Allah Allah made brotherhood between Ansari and the Maharaja.
He said I will split my entire business in half and I will give you half my business not only that I have two wives you choose which of the two that you want look at so Pamela
and observe money over the allotment? No decline the orphanages exactly Hey, show me with a marketplaces. So the Sahaba the Allah annum say that we had never seen a group of people who are more generous than the unsolved. They were ready to give us everything that they had. And they went to the province and lost a limb and they in a matter they complained what was the complaint that they had? They said O Messenger of Allah, even their complaints as a harmless complaints were even the complaints were Dini they were dunya.
Now, upon another occasion, a group of Sahaba came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and they said, O Messenger of Allah, you know, the rich Sahaba they spend in the path of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And they spend and they spend, and we don't have the same means as they have. So we fear that they will take all the reward. Now these are group of poor, so how about they don't come to complain to the professor about the poverty, they complain about the fact that they will be left behind in rewards.
So the power is Allah, Allah, Allah says to this group of Sahaba, if after every Salah you read 33 times upon Allah 33 times Alhamdulillah 33 times Allah work, but you will get the same reward as those who give in the path of Allah.
So they go in, they start doing this after the two while the rich Sahaba find this out. So not only are they spending in the path of Allah, they also doing the discovery. So the Sahaba come again. And they complain to the Messenger of Allah is a messenger of Allah, you know, they've started doing it as well and they're giving you the path of Allah. The Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam said, The Liga for Allah UT he may Yasha that's the grace of Allah, Allah gives some people more riches Allah give some people less riches. So these are how but they come to the prophets Allah Salaam and they complain, they say, O Messenger of Allah, the ansata spend so much upon us, that we fear that they
will take all the rewards and we will be left with nothing. Listen, subpanel I listen the beauty, the beautiful response of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam said, the prophets Allah Some said make dua for them, you will get the same reward. Look how powerful dwis make the world for them, and you will receive the same reward. So the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam insists that they will pay for the machine. He says to Abubakar atiku Abubakar go and give them 10 dinars for the place, the given terms of dinar for the land.
Now imagine this like Lola, so they they get the land and they build Masjid Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Imagine how many people just to date have prayed in the masjid the bristle Allah says,
Just today, imagine the millions were prayed. Millions were prayed over the year. Imagine the most
multi millions the greatest scholars were ever walked on the face of this earth, from every corner of this world for 1400 years have prayed mucha Nabi sallallahu, alayhi wa sallam, every single award goes to Abu Bakar study karate.
You know, that's what you call investing in your ARCA. That's what you call doing a business transaction, which will be of benefit so when you do business
there's no guarantee that you're gonna have profits, isn't it? You could lose out. The only time you are guaranteed that you will get profits is when you do business with Allah. Allah. Allah says in the Quran yeah you alladhina amanu How do lucam Allah teacher rotten to G komen urban Aleem Are you believe Shall I know indicate towards a business? Your life is a business. Your life is a business. What you sow in this dunya remember, is what you will reap in the hereafter. This moment, every moment, every moment that you spend in the worship of Allah subhanho wa Taala you will see the benefits of the end hereafter. Can you imagine so Pamela every single day how much reward Abubakar
Abdullah gets for spending those 10 dinars.
10 dinar now that's what you call an investment.
What also happened was that when they reached Medina, some of the Sahaba of the alarm became very ill because environment didn't suit them, to the degree that Abu Bakar and Bella roseola and the home actually felt that they were going to die that's how unwell they became. I shattered the alarm fell well as well. To the degree that hair started falling out. So I shattered the alarm I went to the profit someone or it was a woman she told him about the plight of the Sahaba and, and then the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam made a was special duar for Medina, said Allah Habib Elena Medina, who been amaka said, so Allah make our love for Medina like a love for McKenna. What
was the love of the Sahaba the Allah are known for Makkah. If you remember, when the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam left Makkah, what did he say? He said, America, you are the most beloved place to me on the face of this earth. And if it was not for the fact that your people had driven me out, I would never leave you. So this is how much the profits and loss of them What did he say? He said Allah
give us the love for Medina has been
like a local motto even more than our love for Mecca. imams UT Rahim Allah says that Allah accepted this duar of the Prophet sama lives. This is why even after the conquest of mcra the profit and loss of them came back to Medina, the vast majority of Sahaba the olana came back to Medina because the duar of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam was accepted. Now remember this. This does not mean that Medina is more virtuous than Makkah. The harem of Makkah Salah in the harem is obviously far greater reward. But this is to do with love. Allah subhanaw taala instill the love of Medina into the hearts of the prophets of Allah, Allah Islam, the Sahaba the alarm to the degree that mentioned when the
prophets Allah would come back from a journey, he would see Medina he would start riding his mouth quicker. And the narrations mentioned either our Medina men who, when he would see Medina because of his love for Medina, he would start writing his mouth quicker. So Allah subhanaw taala created this love for Medina in the heart of the Sahaba of the Allah.
Now they get better the duar of the prophets Allah Salaam is accepted, you know, la messenger of Alameda, Guatemala move this illness to a place called Jehovah and the illness was removed to a place called Jehovah and the Sahaba of the alarm became better. Now soon as Abu Bakar of the new gets better he requests the Messenger of Allah He said the Messenger of Allah, the nica with my daughter Ayesha rhodiola and her has been performed now take her into your wedlock.
So the problem is Allah Solomon says, I can't do that. Abubakar, Allah Allah says Why? said because the dowry which was stipulated with 500 Durham's, and I don't have any money
so buckle up the parentheses, I will pay the dowry,
Allah so Abu Bakar, Ravi Allah and who pay
For the dowry of his own daughter,
this is why a bucket expression
is every step is special. Well life is every breath is special.
He pays the dowry of his daughter.
If it was anybody else's
work, you cannot fulfill the dowry of my daughter. Rebecca says no no message of Allah What good is my wealth is not spent for new. What good is my well being are spent upon you. So he pays.
He pays the dowry
I shall do on her herself great. She says my wedding was simple. What wedding was this? Let me tell you. This is the wedding
of the most beloved wife of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam.
When the Messenger of Allah was asked, Who is the most beloved person to you? He said, Ayesha, when he was asked out to the men, he said her father.
She says my wedding was simple. That wedding which was commanded by Allah, I said that the Allah Allah asked the prophets, Allah cinema upon occasion, he said, O Messenger of Allah, did you marry me out of your own will? Or were you commanded by las panadol? He said, I was commanded by Allah subhanho wa Taala. He says, It was so simple that I was playing with my friends, outside playing with my friends. And my mother called me.
She says, I went to my mother, my mother began to comb my hair.
Then some women from the unsavoury came.
When these women from the ansata came,
let ilaha illa Allah
He says, shortly after this, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam came,
and I went with the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
He says no camel was slaughtered on my wedding.
A wedding? A wedding, which lives on 1400 years. Oh, camel was slaughtered. No major limousines, no big holds.
No wedding gowns, no lingers nothing.
This is why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
that that wedding, which has the greatest Baraka is that which is the simplest
and no wedding well lucky in humanity had a greater Baraka than the wedding of Ayesha with the message of Allah sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
So now, I want to move on to the next topic, which is a robocall the alarm booth participation with the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam in the battles.
The first battle or the first major battle
was the Battle of bada. You could say the greatest battle which ever took place in the history of Islam.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was once asked
by dubray satola who are the best of the Sahaba of the Allah and the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam said, Those who participated in the Battle of
jabra enolase lotta Salaam said similarly, those angels who are the greatest from the angels are those who participated in the Battle of batata.
Let me give you a brief background to the Battle of battle. The battle took place because the Muslims they were driven out of the homes.
They had to leave everything behind. They took nothing with them all their wealth, all their homes, everything that they had they lost. Now the people of Quraysh
every year they would go on to trade caravans at least one would go north, one will go north one would go south to Yemen and one will go to shop. The one that would go to Sham they had to pass Medina
the Muslim boy Medina
so when I was a few I took his trade caravan the province of the Muslim endeavor to intercept it but abuse of yarn managed to outmaneuver the Muslims. So all its returned the province Allah Silva heard that Abu Sofia is now coming back with the trade caravan, and it was manned by 40 people. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam now made this announcement with the Sahaba the Allah in Medina, whoever can get ready quickly get ready. There was no intention to fight.
Remember this, the intention was only to intercept a caravan which only which was only manned by 40 people.
So whoever could quickly get ready they quickly got ready. You know, they they had a couple of Swords that many swords most of them had sticks etc. There are two horses
and they went to intercept this curve and I also
realized that this is the attention to Muslims so he sent a message to the mushrikeen in Makkah
they prepared an army Meanwhile, abuse of Yana managed to outmaneuver the Muslims.
And then he sent another message to the people of McCulloch who have managed to outmaneuver him there's no need for you to send an army but they have already prepared an army so Abuja helping Abuja house No, no, no, no, no, no.
We will go and we will travel to bother
and in bother we will stay for three days. And but there was known for two main things he had a well and it was also a marketplace which was held it is a we will do that, and we will wine Dine and our women will dance and people will know after this that do not mess with Quraysh because they are a power level Sophia. So that with the Buddha, Allah Buddha was so this is what happened. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam now had a predicament they had already left they were hadn't prepared for battle is approximately 300 to 330. So how about the war on home? So what do they do? So the warrior is Allah Allah Allah wants to gauge the atmosphere amongst the Sahaba
he wants to know if they're ready, in this is the first battle. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam now ask them Are you ready to fight?
The first person to stand up and I'm gonna keep repeating this word
ganesa backup Abubakar Sadiq Mattila, first person this message of Allah we are ready to fight. ganas are back. So we are ready to fight the first person to stand up when
they decided that they are going to fight that side of them. Oh, hi June they all agreed.
They say who is gone they made this kind of a shade for the province some sort of a kind of a small Ted dish thing where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam and they said who is now one or protect the province in less than an hour this was the most difficult duty you know, the responsibility of guarding the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam if anything goes wrong is on your shoulders. Say people hesitated. The first person to jump up was Abu Bakr Siddiq Latella
you know Ali Ali was known as a warrior. And inshallah when we do the live for a little deal on you will see this. Ali was known as a warrior. One day it is time as the * if he asked who was the bravest out of the Sahaba of the Allah.
So you know how normally the guys who around you to say oh, you ameerul momineen nobody compared with you? You're the man.
He said no.
is the bravest out of the Sahaba was Abubakar Sudhi Katya.
On the day of butter, nobody wanted to take the responsibility of looking after the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the man who stood up the man who was so thin that his trousers will not remain around his waist, the man who was so thin that his cheekbones had protruding his eyes at sunking that was the man who stood up and he said, I will protect the message of Allah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. So, to clear the alarm of the bravest out of the Sahaba of the land was no other than Abu Bakar de la at the Sahaba say Abu Bakar was the weakest in body
but the strongest in a man, the bravest from amongst them.
So now the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Now he retreats to this tent.
And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam turns one last panel at Allah and he begins to make a dwarf. And he says, Oh Allah, fulfill your promise to us. Allah fulfill your promise to us, meaning of Allah, you know, you promises victory to fulfill our promise to us. And then the problem isn't lost. I began to cry began to weep. And he said, Oh Allah, if this small group died today.
There will be nobody on the face of this earth to worship you. And he cried and he cried, and he wept and he wept. He had a shawl over his a sheet over his shoulders, the sheet fell down. Abubakar rhodiola came and he placed the sheet back over his shoulders, and then he grabbed the province and lost a limb and he began
consoled him.
And he said Allah will fulfill the promise Allah will fulfill the promise. And an MA in the other be al Maliki Rahim Allah the famous Spanish scholar says, He says that the problem is a Muslim was in a state of health fair, because he said that if this group of people died, then there will be nobody to worship there will be no body to protect the dean. He says Abubakar, although he would never agree to have the lender Professor Muslim, he was in a state of hope. And for a man you need fair and hope. He said because he believed that as long as the province Allah Allah was amongst them, Allah would never forsake them.
So Allah Badal Whoa, what a jar is between faith and hope. And then the narrations mentioned that the Prophet salaallah alayhi Salaam became unconscious. When the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam became unconscious and he gained consciousness. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam woke up and he recited the verse, say your visible jungle, where you will lose a double.
He says the great army will be defeated
and they will take a flight they will turn on the heels reciting a verse of the Quran. And then he turned to ibaka rejoice for ICG brer II with the reins in his hands and the horse is a teeth are full of dust, meaning that the horse is running with so much vigor the horse of the bridle is not so much that it the teeth of obika full of dust La ilaha illAllah.
So, you have three initial you have the first three initial deals, which the Muslims win and one after Muslim passes away but all three the Muslims win. And then Abu Bakar son of Dora man who is not a Muslim, who is on the side of the disbelievers. aboubaker is on this side and is upside of this believe he stands up to dual
who is the first person who jumps up to duel his old man no other than Abu Bakar city karate Allah.
And Abu Bakar Yolanda stands to do live in the province Allah Salam pulled him down as a messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said abubaker let us benefit from your existence.
Let us benefit from your existence. And this is a very interesting car either here very interesting assorted principle here that sometimes
one's own benefit. So once own benefit will be
will be pushed aside for the benefit of the wider community. So welcome to the olahraga wanted Shahada. We know the virtue of Shahada but the problem is Allah Salaam said no no no you Abubakar, your benefit we need your benefit, your existence is beneficial for us.
Then we have
the battle the battle takes place 70
machete cool are killed, policies are killed and 70 are taken as prisoners.
So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam now, the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam does Mashallah with the Sahaba of the Allah Allah watch the widow. So Abubakar, Allah gives his Mashallah he says oh message of Allah what we should do is that these are family members at the end of the day there are family members. Let's take ransom firstly it will make us financially stronger.
And secondly, maybe one day these people will come on Eman. This is Abubakar Viola Mashallah Omar combs Omar. Omar Omar Abdullah is a messenger of Allah. No, no, I disagree with Abu Bakar what we need to do
is that we need to kill them. No only just kill him. A family member kills his family member. So they realize that there is no kinship amongst us anymore. No family members.
Then one of the Ansari gives his opinion Abdullah bin raha rhodiola. These are missing of Allah. I think the best thing is just to take him to a place a pit and just burn them all.
So the problems are lost in them. I listen to the mother of all of them. And he says
we take the Matura Abubakar Sadek problem, and this was the much one of the vast majority the Sahaba of the land. And then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, he said ibaka your example is like Ibrahim alayhi salatu salam who says firmen sabbioni for inhumanly woman Asami for in Nicaragua.
He says please
Mi. t 's from me and whoever this obeys Oh Allah you are the fudo Rahim you know you are merciful. You see, you know you are merciful. And then he said your your example is Obamacare is also the example of East LA salatu salam what was this East la salud swamps it into the boom
for in the home a buck
will interfere law home for a nickel until Aziza hacky? He said Oh Allah if you punish them, then they are you serpents. And if you forgive them,
the newer Aziz still powerful tacky, you're wise, you know your power stays the same. And then he says to Omar, Omar, you like you are like, new la slotta salaam. Now this is really interesting. I'll tell you why it's interesting. Even the ambia alayhi salatu salam had different characteristics. A Jeep some ambia was soft some ambia were harsh, some was firm from what you know comparatively softer. So he says to Omar Omar you are like no who said Robbie Lata lol abdominal katherina de the year. Willa, don't leave a house from the Catherine you know wipe them totally out. Don't leave them at all.
Oh you are like Moosa
who say Robert Miss Ella and while him wash dude, either Colombian follow me No. Allah, destroy the wells and make the heart so harsh. For Allah you may know that they don't even believe
until they see the tormenting punishment. So he said he gives a comparison of
of the mbls letter Omar you are harsh aboubaker you are you know soft comparatively. What happened a little while later is the amount of the alarm who comes in he sees the Prophet Salah Salem and Abu Bakr radi Allahu anhu crying
so he asked why are you crying for
tell me why you crying for so I can cry with you. And if I can't cry, at least I will pretend I'm crying to you. People are crying. I want to cry.
So they'll probably someone says, Omar, Allah loved your Matura more than he loved us.
Allah loved your Matura more than ours and Allah reverses regarding your Mashallah. And Allah was about to send a verb upon us.
What was the hikma of the marsh Bromo kebab and Abu Bakr Siddiq inshallah Allah willing, I will deal with that in the life of
Allah.
You know, many, many, many years later,
I will work out the alarm whose son of the man became a Muslim, and we will speak about him later inshallah.
He said tobacco the alarm. So he said, Oh, my father, I saw you in the battlefield.
And I had the opportunity to kill you, but because you were my father, I did not kill
Abubakar rhodiola. And I said, Oh, my son, let it be known. If I had ever seen you in the battlefield, and you will fight in the Muslims, I would have killed you.
Why, before aboubaker there was only one relationship. And that was a lot and
that was a lot and digital soul. led salatu salam
ala madalas pantalla elevate the status obovata speaker of the Allah and on our behalf. May Allah Allah make his life a source of inspiration for us. salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah zamyla heydon for watching, and please do not forget to watch the next episode, and inshallah when you're GWAS they will be plenty more history series coming very soon Baraka Luffy comme salaam aleikum, wa rahmatullah.
