volodymyr rahim hamdu lillah wa salatu
was-salam ala rasulillah wada Ali he was
like me he woman Walla Hama bad so last
Wednesday we had done the issue of the
story of the Muslims in Abyssinia and we
had concluded that the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa seldom had told
them the very day that Negus died the
very hour that he died he told them that
he had died in the profitsystem prayed
solitude janazah over the nagashi and
this was the only time in the whole
serie that the profitsystem prayed salat
al janazah idol got it and we said
there's some filter issues than derived
from this what should we do if somebody
dies who's famous should we pray about
the janazah over somewhere else or is it
only the one who has not been prayed
over to somebody else pray over them and
there's the format I have different
opinions just a few last issues of
Abyssinia before move on the Muslims of
Abyssinia remained there for another
roughly 10 or 11 years and this is a
very significant point because the
prophecies and emigrated to Medina in
another two three years right he
emigrated to Medina and yet the Muslims
remained in Abyssinia after Medina and
after baedal and after hoed and after
honda candy the profitsystem is
basically telling them to stay there it
was only after the Battle of a sab and
when the profitsystem had expelled
basically all of the hood from the
surrounding areas the Battle of hybrid
took place and after this the prophets
aresome sent a letter to Jaffa telling
him to bring all the Muslims to Medina
now this is interesting because one
wonders why did the profitsystem
want the Muslims to remain in Abyssinia
when he was in Medina and when he's
already winning battles and he needs
manpower and he needs people there what
is the reason and Allah Adam but the
only reason that makes sense is that the
profitsystem had a back-up plan Plan B
in case Medina does not work there is
Plan B and this shows us the
long-term planning of the profits of the
law party he would send them that he's
not just yeah Neto local ARLA Hollis
everything of course he has to look cool
but he's tying his camel he's planning
and he's thinking what's going to happen
if Medina does not work out right and
only when he is firmly established in
Medina which is basically the Battle of
high bar was the last significant
basically interaction with the hood of
the surrounding areas and then he
expelled all of the immediate threats
around Medina and he is now completely
solidified in Medina
so it seems therefore that Abyssinia
remained the plan be until Medina was
100% secured then he told Jaffa come
back now and after this and of course
there were no Muslims remaining in
Abyssinia now there remains a
controversy which island they will ever
resolved unless we discover some new
books did any of the Abyssinians convert
to Islam when the Muslims were there in
other words did they give that WA to the
locals and the locals convert to Islam
allahu adam there doesn't seem to be any
type of numerous reports but there might
be some indications that a few
Abyssinians embraced islam with their
interaction with the muslims but for
sure and we have to be frank here islam
did not pass down in Abyssinia until
basically uh islam conquered lands in
Abyssinia and this of course happened
after another 50 60 years so islam did
not make a strong presence just by Dawa
in this land of Abyssinia and there
might be many reasons for this but they
did of course convert nagashi did they
convert anybody else a lot and maybe
they did there is some reports that
indicate maybe there were some muslims
in Abyssinia but there wasn't any large
presence of Islam until Islam came back
to Abyssinia and conquered it as a
political power one more incident that
we need to mention about Abyssinia and
that is the fact that obeyed Allah he
been Josh obeyed Allah had been Josh a
cousin of the prophet salallahu alayhi
wa seldom he passed away he died and his
wife was oma Habiba binti soufiane his
wife
the daughter of Abu Sufyan and so Omaha
Bieber then we came a widow and there
was no one to take care of her in
Abyssinia and the profitsystem
sent her a marriage proposal while she
was in Abyssinia and d and of course
this is after her in DES and he sent it
through the Najah she he sent it through
the Najah she and so the Najah she took
charge of the marriage and he was the
one who gifted the matter on behalf of
the process even though the process
didn't ask him to do this right but he
was known who gifted the MA
- oh man habiba and she then went back
to medina Najah she had a delegation
take her back to medina and she became
one of the omaha al-mu'minun
we all returned to the affairs in Mecca
what was happening in Makkah during this
time notice Abyssinia does not involve
the process of directly the process
Amina some never want to have a senior
it doesn't involve him directly however
because it involves the Muslims who are
obviously taking commands from the
process time it is always discussed
within the realm of ceará even though
there's no direct contact between
Abyssinia and the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa seldom what's happening in
Mecca in Makkah - major conversions took
place after the emigration - Abyssinia
after the Muslims had left - Abyssinia
the second emigration remember we said
they came back they stayed there for a
while and then this convinced around 80
or so men to emigrate again another
twenty women so from 14 they went to 110
hundred and twenty right so they went
five times more it that the number
increased fivefold so the Muslims left -
Abyssinia and therefore the number and
quantity of Muslims went down very
little some scholar said it was around
and they have a very precise number 38
or 37 men only the bulk of the Muslims
had left - ever see any more than 100
had gone to Abyssinia right so at this
time there's only one hundred fifty
hundred eighty of all of the Sahaba so
Allah Azza WA JAL then blessed to people
to embrace this lamp that caused a huge
factor of safety for the Muslims the
first of them was hamza the uncle of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam
the story of Hamzah's conversion is one
of the most strange joys of conversions
ever and it is narrated that hamza was a
well-known Archer he was a well-known
hunter he would go and he would go on
long expeditions and he would every time
he would return home the first thing he
would do is that he would go to the
Kaaba do Tawaf and then go back home
this was the Sunnah of most of the
people of Mecca they would respect the
Kaaba
so during one of these trips it so
happened that the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa seldom was in Mecca and Abu
jahil met him close to the mountain of
Safa and Abu jahil was in a foul mood
that day for some reason and he just
began his insults and his cursing and
his him and his rude manners and he
cursed him like he had never cursed him
before verbally didn't touch him he just
kept on cursing him and his ancestors
and the prophesies and remain silent not
saying one word back until Abu jahil
basically got tired and went on his way
and the women of the Banu Hashim got
extremely insulted because they don't
care Muslim or non-muslim this is you're
insulting our tribe Abu jihad is the
bottom assumed remember right and they
are the banu hashim and when he's
insulting his forefathers in him
obviously is the bandwagon
being insulted so the women of the banu
hashim got very insulted but who does
this man think he is to curse our
fathers and to make fun of our member
and there was no man of the banu hashim
close by so when hamza returned some of
the women began to basically
taunt him that what type of uncle are
you what type of leader are you of the
Banu Hashim when your own nephew is
insulted and no one stands up to defend
him basically where's your honor for the
Banu Hashim doesn't matter Islam no
Islam it's a matter of family honour
right that it's do we have no honor left
if
now one of our members can be insulted
so he said what happened
so they said abuja hen stood there for
15-20 minutes however long just
haranguing him just insulting him and
not one person stood up to defend and he
said this and he said that and he
narrated all that he said and Hamza's
blood began to boil and this caused him
to become so angry and he asked did the
other people see was this a public
insult because it's a matter of pride
for him right said the other people see
this humiliation they said the home of
Makkah saw it everybody saw it is a
public insult and so he basically lost
it and he marched to the Cata still with
his still with his bows and arrows and
and and hunting equipment and he marched
straight to Abu jahil
and took his bow and smacked him across
the face with his book caused a huge
blood gush of blood to come out and he
said how dare you curse my own nephew
and then he didn't even realize what he
was saying and he blurted out and I too
am a follower of his religion he didn't
plan this it was just anger that what
are you gonna do now as a matter of look
now I also say that I'm following his
religion and I'm upon in his faith and
this of course shocked shocked him as
much as he shocked everybody else he
didn't even think about saying this they
just came out out of as the Quran says
Hamidah hylia which is basically the the
bigoted feeling of just ancestry this is
a type of pride that has no basis to it
so he just wanted to defend the
profitsystem because he's his nephew and
he's saying he's my nephew and I'm also
one of his religion now what are you
gonna do and Hamza was also known to be
a strong man there were a few men who
were masha'Allah any well known in Mecca
and Hamza was one of them and when he
hit Abuja he'll like this and Abu jahil
was sitting down and he was standing up
the bernam assumed that were around him
stood up to go and defend him but Abu
jahil said leave him be from Allah he
today I cursed his nephew like I never
before meaning I know why he's angry
leave him be I cursed his nephew like I
never cursed him before and then Hamza
returned home confused dazed what am I
gonna do now what am I gonna do now I
didn't plan to accept Islam I don't know
if this is the truth or not and he made
a door out to Allah subhana WA tired and
he said o Allah you know that I am one
of the leaders of the Quraysh and I have
now said something that I don't know I
cannot take it back it's too
embarrassing to take back so if this
matter is true then caused my heart to
be guided to it and if it is not true
then caused me to die right now
I can't I'm in a trap now because I just
said I'm a Muslim but I don't believe in
Islam and so he made this dua to Allah
and he spent the most miserable night of
his life tossing turning thinking what
to do and the next morning he went to
the Prophet SAW some and he said o my
nephew this is what happened yesterday
and he explained what happened not what
should I do
he hadn't intended to convert so the
prophecies of him stood up and began
talking to him admonishing him telling
him about Islam exhorting him convincing
him of la ilaha illallah until finally
after that conversation hamza said i
testify that you are a truthful person
and you're speaking the truth and now i
don't ever want to return to the
paganism of the religion of my
forefathers so Hamza's conversion story
was not one that initially he was
sincere for Islam rather he was sincere
for tribalism and it just came out but
when it came out what is he going to do
now and so he made a dua to Allah if it
is really true Oh a lot and opened my
heart to Islam otherwise cause me to die
well he didn't die and as he thought
about it in the process some convinced
him he said this is indeed the truth and
of course hamza then became the say that
you heard that the leader of the Shahada
in the Battle of work in the Battle of
were heard as you all know he died a
very tragic death and he became the
leader of the Shahada
so when hamza accepted islam this was a
big
boost for the prophecy lolani who said
them because he finally had support from
the elders of the Quraysh he finally had
this Hamzah's conversion was the
senior-most
policy to convert up until this point I
mean he's the son of Abdul Mutallab what
more do you want
right he's the brother of Abu Talib the
chieftain what more do you want
so the senior most person to convert was
hams up until this point and when hams
that converted even has access they had
to tone down their animosity dad to tone
down the irritation of the prophets are
some of the Muslims so the conversion of
hamza was a big boost a few days later
according to one report three days later
allah followed it up with another boost
new Ranade news and that was of course
the conversion of umar IBN al-khattab
the conversion of roma abner hot bob and
the conversion of roma along with the
conversion of hamza it most likely
occurred in the month of the head of the
6th year of the Dawa ie around four or
five years before the Hegira the sixth
year of the Dawa and so both of them
they converted as we said very short
after one another one report says only
three days between them and I already
mentioned to you last week the story of
Lleida bint ABI minty Abby hath man that
when she was packing her bags and going
to Abyssinia already mentioned the story
and she was in a very irritated mood
because they're leaving their homeland
this is for the second digit or not the
first one the second is when they have
to leave again and Omar passes by and he
sees the baggage and he sees the the
camels being loaded and he asks where
are you going and she says that you dare
ask any you you have no manners I mean
you're asking because of you were having
to emigrate and because of your
animosity because you have made this
world so difficult for us we have to
leave our land and leave our belongings
and leave our family in order to go to
worship allah subhana wa ta'ala in the
land of Abyssinia and she was very
irritated at him and hamza and she was
expecting a harsh response back but for
the first time she saw hamza affected
so how much she saw him what affected
and Omar softened at her comments and
almost said has it reached this level
has it reached this level meaning I
didn't realize I was that bad has it
reached this level and he then made dua
for her and he said that may Allah give
you Baraka wherever you go he's actually
got soft for me Allah give you Baraka
wherever you go and so as you as I said
last time owner husband came back she
was so excited he'll never guess what
happened
I would have no hot Bob himself yeah he
said this and IRA said this and then he
he seemed to soften up and you know the
response that her husband said that you
really think he's going to accept Islam
by Allah his father's donkeys will
accept Islam before he does right and
this is of course his perception of what
would happen but he didn't know that the
profitsystem have made a dua to Allah
and this law is narrated in soon and at
enmity that I Bonomo almost no kebab Sun
Eibon Omar says that the Prophet system
had made a dua to allah allah whom is an
islam abhi a happy holiday no Raja rainy
alaik vib javelin I will be Roma liberal
hot top the processer had said oh Allah
bring glory to Islam with one of these
two men who is the more beloved to you
either Abu jahil or Oh madam Nakata and
these two men were the most severe
enemies to Islam and these two men were
also of the physically most powerful and
also in terms of lineage the most
powerful so the profitsystem said one of
these two oh Allah give him to me the
one who is more beloved to you and even
Omar said Omar was the one who was more
beloved than Abu jahil and indeed it
shows us that guidance is from Allah
subhana WA Ta'ala these two people were
beyond hope nobody could ever have
imagined that either could convert to
Islam and Allah subhana WA Ta'ala
caused the heart of rumour to come to
Islam we should never give up hope for
anybody
we should never just pass a stamp on a
verdict that call us no Allah knows best
and Allah knows whose heart has some
good in it and it also shows us as well
that
no denying that people of influence and
people of power have more of an impact
upon the masses than other people and
therefore it is also a sign of
intelligence to talk to them concentrate
upon them of course not to ignore the
others but it's a sign of intelligence
the process is making duaa specifically
for these two people there's a reason
for this right because the mass is by
and large look up to certain people and
if one of them converts if one of the
symbols or leaders of a society converts
it brings about a sense of recognition a
sense of peace a sense of ease I mean
here in America there is nobody who has
done more positive image for Islam than
Muhammad Ali the boxer nobody in the
last 40 years you know and nobody can do
except a person of that figure right
because this is a person whose beloved a
person who everybody admires and then he
basically publicly converts salmon shows
the people this is what Islam is you can
have a million scholars they're not
going to do what Muhammad Heidi did
right this is just the reality and it is
wise for us to them concentrate on this
and to realize that there are people who
will have a bigger impact on communities
than other people and so Allah is the
widget guided I would have no hope up to
Islam and of course they're almost
conversion and it was a watershed moment
it was a black and white it was a
day-and-night moment even Massoud said
when our local pub was was on his
deathbed ib'n Massoud said we have ever
remained in Asia since Roma has
converted up until now we have ever
remained in is from the time of rumours
conversion up until his basically few
laughs and of course his Halawa was
truly the pinnacle of the Muslim Ummah
without any question in terms of
political strength there is no question
what happened in the time of Rome are
the battles of Yarmouk and Cardassia and
and all of these who had all of these
conquests in Egypt and in Azerbaijan and
Armenia and in Damascus and in Jerusalem
and everything I'm a Roman is just
amazing in his kunafa what happened so
when he was about to pass away with
mister it said we have ever remained in
it is ever since Rome are converted to
Islam we were not even able to pray in
the harem if I Masood never won
sprayed in the harem until on the day
Omar converted that was the day we all
were able to pray in the house eben
Massoud is saying his own eye witness we
were never able to print the album until
Roma converted and it was in his once
one report says even Abbas asked him oh
I'm gonna laptop how did you get the
title al Farooq how did you get this
title because we have Abu Bakr Siddiq or
Omar al Farooq how did you get the title
Alfaro al Farooq means the one who
divides truth from falsehood the one who
divides good from evil this is what al
Faruk means so he said that the Prophet
system gave me this title when I
converted and we march to the Kaaba on
that day for the first time all of the
Muslims publicly marched to the Kaaba
and headed by two rows I was in the
first row and Hamza was in the second
the two people were just converted right
and we marched to the Kaaba and we
basically had a Jamaa of saw for the
first time we prayed in public and that
was when the profitsystem said you are
Umar al Farooq you have now basically
separated you have allowed the truth to
come
public now so the prophets of himself
gave him the title of alpha how did he
accept Islam actually there's more than
one story narrated I know all of you
know the one story there's more than one
story narrated about his conversion and
usually when that is the case then his
conversion then is a combination of all
of these factors this happened this
happened this happened finally his heart
then basically accepted Islam it is
narrated at once
elliptical table went during the evening
and humor was as most of the men were he
loved to drink he loved to drink and he
had drinking companions so he went out
at night having a craving for drinking
he went to the house where all of the
young he was young at this time 25 years
old so where all of the young men would
go and drink and he found that none of
them were there he went to another house
then for some reason they were not there
he went to the wine cellar even the wine
cellar was not there the one that they
get their their wine from so he said let
me just go to the loft now
it's amazing instead of the pup he goes
to the harem he just wants to get out of
his mind basically right let me go to
the laughs now get my mind off of this
craving so he went at night to the Kaaba
and there are no lights there is a dark
place you know and he heard the
prophecies and reciting Quran all alone
in the middle of the night basically
right praying in front of the campus
Panola no fear no nothing no gardener
he's just playing in front of the cabin
and so her mother thought to himself now
is my time to beat him up do something
nobody's here all alone this is my time
to basically get some revenge and you
know do some dastardly deed and nobody's
gonna see me so he quietly crept up
behind the Prophet SAW Selim and
obviously his reciting Quran what's
gonna happen he stopped and he began
listening and I keep on telling myself
in all of you spare Allah we look and we
want to listen to these bodies and we
live were were enthralled by their
voices
we pray that inshallah one day we can
hear the prophecies and recite the Quran
what will his voice be like and how much
it will move us to listen to that right
so Ramana had never actually stood and
listened to the Quran I mean they're all
just busy hating to actually and this is
you know people just want to hate they
don't want to listen and so Omar for the
first time is basically stopped in his
track and now listening to the Prophet
system directly reciting the Quran and
nobody knew he was even the processor
was oblivious he was completely lost in
his recitation and no Marisa is
narrating the story himself it is
narrated in western a Mohammed he's
narrating in the first person and he
said I stood behind him and he began
reciting surah taha and how come how
come Arakawa madaraka Malka consumer
mood wada melodia and he said fad I'd
jump to mint leaf he he I was amazed at
the rhythm the sequence I will lie as
every surah but especially these makan
surah the mock consumers they are just
powerful the media Medina suits are
eloquent in a longer style way but the
mock consumers you don't know the small
verses each one is like a upper right
and upper left one after the other
so almost a jump to mentally fee I was
just amazed at its composition and while
the process him is reciting this is an
amazing story he began to think to
himself where is this coming from
so he said how double la he who shot in
this is what I hid this must be the
statement of a beautiful poet just like
the Quraysh are saying and as soon as he
thought of this so little halqa says
what Roma holy Shah edema to me noon so
that almost says okay it must be a kyon
it must be a sorcerer what is the next
verse
what a bucolic ayan Kalina Matata karoon
right so ever says where is this from
then what's the next verse ten zero
Meeropol I mean what if he's inventing
it 100 200 Lelaina babel akka wheel la
colina who Billy Ameen from Morocco Todd
I mean Hulu 18 basically it's a
conversation that Allah is happening
with romanovna kebab through the
prophets as I'm in the process and
doesn't even know about it doesn't even
know about it because he's just reciting
the Quran and Omar is just thinking
thoughts to himself right what if this
is a poet this cannot be the poet you
have no thinking you're not thinking
through well what if it's a kind it's
not a can don't you see well where is
this from
it's from Allah Azza WA JAL 10-0
Mirabella mean what if he's inventing it
if he were to invent anything and
ascribe it to us we would hold him by
the right hand and cut off his jugular
vein he would never dare ascribe
anything to Allah subhana WA Ta'ala so
basically every doubt on what is
thinking certain haka is responding back
to at that very time until he finished
the whole surah and I'm a little hot Bob
said that was the first time Islam
entered my heart and took over it he
didn't accept yet but that was the first
time that he became little bit
sympathetic to ista and he didn't do
anything to the processor and he went
back home then of course the famous
story happened that all of you are
familiar with that one day the people of
the haurache were sitting around and
Ramona was with them
an Abu jahil once again began his tirade
against the Prophet SAW said him and Abu
jahil I said this man has done more to
insult our fathers and gods than anybody
else
he has cursed our religion he has said
that anybody who worships idols will be
punished and going to hell this means
our forefathers he is making fun of our
forefathers who will finally rid us of
this man and by the way there were
multiple assassination attempts multiple
talks of killing the prophets asanam and
of course towards the end it got more
and more and more and that's why he had
to make Hitler so this is one more talk
like this in the 6th year of the age of
not Hitler 6 year of the Dawa abu jahal
says by allah anybody who succeeds in
doing it I promise him 100 camels red
and black the choicest colours and as I
said red camels actually means dusky
Brown that's what they called red camel
not a red like we have red there is no
such thing as a red camel but by red
they mean the camel the color that we
think of when we think of a camel they
called that a red camel and then of
course black camels were also prized
these were the two most expensive camels
so I'll give him a hundred camels red
and black and I'll also add a hundred
rupiah pouches of silver basically I
give my entire wealth whatever goes
kills this man I was a villa so Omar now
got greedy I said let me go do it hallo
this is a good amount of money let me go
do it and so he went back home he took
his sword out and he walked with an
unsheathed sword as you all know the
story he walked with an unsheathed sword
and here that he wanted even his how can
others say that a number of things
stopped him along the way and he heard
voices with poetry with eloquent Arabic
telling him that what are you doing this
is just a man saying that is Allah so
basically there seems to be some
supernatural events happening and he
kept on ignoring and just not thinking
about it until finally he passed by no I
mean Abdullah Nahum and no I mean
Abdullah had just accepted Islam but he
had not told anybody about it and he saw
Omar with this anger with walking with
the sword up and down the streets of
Mecca and he says where are you going
Omar what happened you concede death in
his eyes and where are you going and so
uh Romano kitab said that enough is
enough we have been
course too long and our ancestors have
been ridiculed I'm now going to kill
this man Muhammad so of course no I'm
panicked because this was removed no
Halabi is going to kill the process on
him and so no I am said have you lost
your mind or and what do you really
think that the Benoit up dim enough the
tribe of the process of the Benoit David
of the banu hashim will allow you to
walk on the face of this earth after you
kill one of their own
you're not gonna live any any longer and
if you really want to do something go
back and fix your own family first
what do you mean fix my own family don't
you know no what do you mean your own
sister and your own brother-in-law have
accepted Islam what are you going to the
profitsystem go fix your own family
first now no I am of course he's
thinking let me just get him off the
back of the prophecies home he's not
gonna harm his sister is he so go to
your own family get in and get him off
the way let him calm down when Rama
heard this he became even more enraged
because this is now a slap on his face
is an insulting my family has converted
my sister has converted to the faith no
way and so he marched to his sister's
house in anger and as he came close to
the door he heard the recitation of the
Quran he heard the recitation of the
Quran because the prophet sallallaahu is
and every time somebody converted he
would be assigned a teacher he would be
assigned the teacher and so they had
assigned a Bob eben and a lot we talked
about his story before the slave who had
been burned by his master his slave the
the lady who owned him so how bad had
been assigned to found him AB Intel hot
top that's his sister and her husband
Syed I Bonet
Zaid and that is this is the Zaid that
is a terribly new fate this is the zeta
been a beautiful who remembers they did
not even who failed one of the UNA
fought one of the people who had stopped
worshipping idols right and he had died
five years before the coming of Islam
and the Prophet system said I saw him in
Jannah he was his own man his own a
month he didn't have any OMA because
he's his own he would stop working this
is his son sidedness eight and seven is
eight had married her mother little pop
sister okay
so this is the husband wife
couple and the process of aside them
kebab a lot by the way span Allah this
shows us that even in times of
persecution education of Islam was
paramount even in times of hiding like
this you needed to know your faith and
you need to be assigned the teacher to
learn the faith and subhanAllah this
shows us how important it is to know
your religion to know the Quran without
knowledge you have no snap even in this
persecuted time the process have had an
educational program up and running
somebody converts he's assigned a
teacher and the teacher goes and teaches
him how to pray how to fast how to read
the Quran and subhanAllah this was at
the time of persecution fast forward to
2011 2012 in America somebody converts
we all come and hug him and jazakallah
and then call us never hear from him
again
well lie it's a sad state of affairs
that we don't have any sense of a
community any sense of taking care of
those who convert whereas those in the
time of the process I'm in this
persecution complete secrecy and there
is clearly a educational program clearly
there's must be people in charge telling
off you get this you get that come here
go there spotless just amazing if you
think about it right so how bob was
there teaching them the quran and i was
hearing this as he's walking to the door
and sir omar bar joseph began slamming
on the door and he hears curried sounds
a kebab is being put in in the closet
and fatima took the quran and basically
almost sat on it she put her skirt on
top of it so that she wouldn't see he
wouldn't see the there was a copy of a
parchment or maybe it was written on
stone we don't know what it was written
on but in those days they didn't have
paper as you know so something is
written on it maybe it's most likely it
would be some type of stone or or tablet
so she puts it on the bed and then puts
her skirt on top of it basically as if
she's sitting on it almost right so that
Homer doesn't see come and come in well
what are you doing here at this time of
the day
what was this noise noise I heard this
humming and drumming what was this she
said no no you didn't hear anything she
goes by Allah I know what I heard and
rumor has reached me or I know now that
the both of you have accepted a stuff I
know it has been told it and they began
to deny it and her mother is already
enraged and he took a step forward to
basically
punch said his brother-in-law to punch
Sahib news 8 and when he took this step
forward Fatima stood up to try to stop
him the blow landed on her forehead
instead of his and when he punched her
her lip basically burst open and the
blood began to flow down and when this
happened the both of them became enraged
and they said yes so what do as you
please if I'm a bad luck do as you
please
we can't be - you're sorry do as you
please we have accepted Islam and we
believe in the prophet sallallaahu idea
he was sending now when he saw the blood
and he saw the the sincerity really
that's all it is the courage from both
of them again his heart softened and
again and again we see OMA had a harsh
sight and he had a soft side and this
continued throughout basically his
galava as well from what is known as a
really harsh man but inside he has a
soft heart right he was a very strict
and Stern person but inside he had a
very merciful and tender heart and so
when he saw his sister bleeding again he
calmed down and he said let me see what
you were reading perhaps you remembered
how cut that he had heard before you
know let me see what you were reading
and his sister got worried that what do
you mean we don't want to give because
the Quran needs to be respected we don't
want to give you the Quran it goes no I
swear I am NOT going to do anything
except read the book and Omar was one of
the few who could read and write her mo
was an educated man he could read and
write so she said as you know that you
are a mushrik you are a pagan and you
are not allowed to touch the Quran until
you have purified yourself and this
shows us that even in this early stage
the people knew that the Quran the book
of allah azzawajal
is a special book you need to even have
will go to touch it it's that special
that you need to be physically clean to
touch the Quran and so Omar said let me
quickly take a hole so he went to the
corner of the house where they took it
in he took a whole so then he came back
and he read Taha'a you know and islam
then entered his heart and he knew that
this was true and so he asked Syed where
is the profit system now and society saw
that his eyes had completely calmed down
he wants to can wear the possibilities
in the house of
outcome he's in the house of Allah
Rock'em and nobody knew this is with top
secret he is in the house of it all come
so the Hermit Abner hot Bob then
proceeded to al khums house the sword is
still in his hand because he hasn't let
go of it and he goes to the house of
outcome and he bangs on the door of our
outcomes house one of the Sahaba stand
up to go see who it is and he looks
through the the holes of the door and he
sees Omer with the sword and he comes
back in trembling says you had a suit
Allah cannot have no hobbies outside
with the sword in his hand and Hamza of
course had just accepted the time he's
in the room as well so Hamza says let
him in for if Allah wants good he's
gonna accept it son
and if Allah wants other than this then
the very sword that he's holding will be
the end of him we're gonna use his sword
against him they're very sword that his
holding will be used against him and so
some of the Sahaba went to the door they
opened it up they escorted Omar they
held onto his arms two people holding on
to his arms right is a big guy and they
escorted him to the prophets of the law
party he was seldom and he sat down in
front of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wasallam him in his house says the
prophets awesome held onto his collar
and dragged him closer to himself and
said yep no hot tub what are you doing
here why did you come here the president
has no fear straight what are you doing
here what is your purpose in coming and
and he says therefore by Allah if you
continue in this path Allah will destroy
you with the punishment if you continue
this way you're going to meet your
demise and this was when Omar said Alice
who Allah I came to accept Islam believe
in Allah and believe in you and testify
in the truth hear the prophecies in
himself said allahu akbar so loud that
everybody in a lot comes house knew that
omar had accepted islam and this was
when after the conversion of omar they
for the first time publicly went to the
kaaba and they prayed publicly for the
first time and they said that the device
says they were around forty people they
were
lalla - Hamza and Omar went together
Hamza Omar went together at this time
right so Hamza Omar were basically
leading the way because nobody would
dare harm them these were the two people
they had just fresh converts right as we
said three days apart nobody would dare
harm them and it is many stories are
narrated about his conversion all of
them is that he wanted to personally
personally inform Abu jahil of this -
Annie
rub it in and so he went knocking abu
jahal door and he marched it house of
abu jahal abuja had not heard the news
it and abu jahil opened the door he saw
him Bobby said Allen was silent and he
welcomed what has brought you here so mr
said I have come to personally inform
you that I now believe in Allah and in
His Messenger and I am now upon the
religion of Muhammad sallallaahu alayhi
wasalam so Abu jahil slammed the door in
his face and said may Allah curse you
and what you have come with and the
shows the bravery to march to the house
of abu jahil Andromeda prophet Bob said
who is the one who cannot keep any
secret who is the one who's the most
rumor monger the most tattered tale and
all of Makkah so somebody said oh that
must that is Jimmy Demaret l-jamaa hey
Jimmy damn the mama was the tattletale
the gossiper everybody knows he's the
town gossip ER so he went to Jamil
directly and he said to Jamil do you
know I have a secret do you know I have
just accepted Islam and I'm following
the religion of Muhammad sallallaahu Adi
he was sending Jamil was in his house he
jumped up barely grabbing a garment to
cover his nakedness and rushed outside
because he needs to he wants to be the
tiger till right and he wants to go tell
the people of Makkah he began screaming
in the streets of Makkah before he gets
to the cabin and he's screaming along
the way oh people of Mecca harish rawat
Aloha pub but the Saba Saba as what they
called
accepting Islam because there was a
religion at that time called Sabian ISM
and they would say that anybody who left
the religion of ideology had become a
Sabian
so called a Saba and Homer gently
corrected him no I haven't become a
Samba I have aslam - I have accepted
Islam and it is said that on that day a
number of people came to America Bob
publicly in front of the cabin and tried
to have a number of fights and joseline
shoving with him until finally I just
said that and also been what is the
father of a liberal house the famous
omnomnom and I'll say been what it came
and he said what is the matter with you
let this man be if he's chosen a path
different than yours it is nothing is
none of your business so basically
common sense this is a liberal analysis
father
and so our the palaces father and was
allowed seven Wotton gave him protection
and let him be and of course there are
so many blessings of our madman of kebab
one of the most authentic and simplest
blessings narrated by Behati the
professors Adam said that there were
people before you who were communicated
with that's what it says mahat death
hoon who were communicated with meaning
by the Angels but they were not prophets
there were people before you angels
would communicate to them but they were
not prophets if there's anybody in my
Ummah like this than it is among if my
OMA has this type of person than it is
Roma and rabbinical pubs blessings go on
and on it is enough of a blessing as we
said that you see what happened in his
Hadassah and you see the is of Islam and
how strongest man became Islam
quadrupled in size in the time of
umbrella pop Abu Bakr saved Islam by
preserving the Arabian Peninsula but he
didn't really allow just will we needed
the Abu Bakr to basically solidify or
else it would have fragmented her mother
came and then it literally quadrupled in
his time and Ruth man's first six years
were just a continuation of her mother's
policies so with these two conversions
the Quraysh really felt threatened two
things that happen now that is just
astounding number one the bulk of the
Muslims have fled to a foreign land and
this is humiliating
it is threatening because they don't
know what they're going to do over there
they're out of their power number two
two of the most promising men of their
town have converted and so this caused
them
to really come together and think about
what they would do and it is said that
in the seventh year of the Dawa we don't
know an exact timeline for this in the
seventh year of the Dawa all of the
Karachi tribes came together and
discussed what needed to be done until
they agreed we need to kill Mohammed s
so on only one thing on their minds to
kill kill kill they need to kill
Mohammed and they said how can we do it
the Banu Hashim we're not going to give
him over to us so they said we will
offer whatever blood money open check
blank check whatever blood money they
want we'll offer it and we'll even
concede to them that none of us will
kill him we'll get some other tribesmen
paint him and then do the job right but
they must hand over Mohammed's asanam to
us so for the final time they want to
abou tal him they had done it many years
before they had given up now they're
coming as a delegation again and they
say to him that you do not have any
choice in the matter either you will
hand over Muhammad system and we will
give you whatever blood money and none
of us is going to do the job it's not
going to be a Qureshi or we will have to
cut you off from the Horesh again this
is unprecedented and all of Arabia this
had never happened once before how are
you going to cut us off we're blood
relatives none of us will allow you to
get any food and water
we will boycott you we will cut off our
marriages with you if anybody is married
to one of us our daughters we're going
to cut him up and if it's our sons he's
going to divorce so no marriages and no
money and no business transactions any
of us who owns the business we're going
to tell him that he cannot buy and sell
anything for you food water drink
nothing it was a boycott and when the
Quraysh came to Abu thought of like this
Abu thought it himself became furious
and he said do as you please I'm not
going to hand my nephew over to you and
most likely voluntary the one report
says they were forced but most likely
voluntarily
I will thought it therefore decided that
if we're not going to be able to buy and
sell in Mecca we cannot have any access
to the shops of Mecca then let us go and
live elsewhere and so they emigrated to
not even immigration is called they
basically in
was a type of exile from the city and
they moved to some of the valleys that
the banu hashim owned and they were
called the valleys of abu talib share
bible column and that's because the banu
hashim had basically claimed some
valleys as their own I mean outside of
Micah's empty land nobody's going to saw
every sub tribe that basically said this
is our camping ground this is our
hunting ground so they owned some Valley
or it was basically claimed by them and
so abu talib then left to live in that
valley and every single person from the
been wash him and the burn will cut it
these are the two twin tribes with the
two cousin tribes basically the benoît
abdomen ave so the great-grandfather of
the process of him all of his sub tribe
so the banu hashim and the Manimal
taught him they voluntarily went into
what is called the famous boycott and
this is the incident of the of the
boycott and in order to solidify this
the whoreish came together and wrote a
pact amongst themselves they wrote a
treaty amongst themselves that everybody
has to uphold this treaty
what is the treaty nobody will buy and
sell to the Banu Hashim nobody will
marry into or from the benoît ship
nobody will basically socialize with the
Banu Hashim so it is a boycott of an
economic a political a social level
everything is going to be cut off from
the Banu Hashim and they wrote a treaty
and they hung it inside the Kaaba and of
course nobody entered the Kaaba so they
lock the door and it was inside the
Kaaba it is said that by evening Alma
was the one who wrote this treaty and
the process I made against him and his
hand became paralyzed until he died so
this complete boycott forced the Banu
Hashim to leave Mecca and they lived
outside of Mecca for how long some say -
and some say three years there doesn't
seem to be one of the interesting points
is also sad for us we don't have too
much information about this period why
not for many reasons firstly who live
from this time until way after Medina -
tell us what happened there were very
few people right Balad has a few reports
even madrid has a few reports otherwise
any who lived secondly as we all know
bad memory
we tend to just gloss over them we don't
narrate them in detail we don't want to
think about these things so those who
went through this time they didn't
narrate that much about what happened it
was a very difficult and traumatic time
for them and so for two or three years
they lived in this abandoned basically
valley eking out an existence getting
rain water eating from the shrubbery and
the leaves Bella says that we used to we
began defecating like goats defecate
droppings our droppings couldn't be told
different from the goats this is how we
had to live and one of their main
sources of food was that every few weeks
somebody felt sympathy for them and
would send in some secret supplies into
the valley it was a somewhat closed
Valley which had one main entrance where
a camel could go through and so they
would go to the the entrance in the
middle of the night the most famous
amongst them was of course motor amoeba
Noddy multi-beam Adi and we mentioned
his name many many many times his son
became a famous Sahaba jebaited in more
time but muhtaram died before the battle
of badr motor him did not see the battle
whether he was alive up until the Hegira
right after the hit about a year he
passed away
mostly benedi was one of the most
sympathetic non-muslims ever and the
process and praised him in many a hadith
we mentioned is of them after the battle
above that he gave the famous phrase he
said if motor maybe Noddy were alive and
he spoke to me about these captives I
have all of the people of other 70
captives I would have handed them back
to him without any question no ransom no
nothing if motor I'm just asked me I'd
hand them all back to him this is multi
I'm the one who every few weeks every
few months he would just go with a large
camel laden with food and supplies and
water and grain and just hit it on the
back and send it into the valley and of
course when they caught it and they
could ride the mead they could keep it
and last for many many weeks the Arabs
knew how to take take care of the camel
in that sense it is also reported that a
few other people hakima minhas am who
was hadiya's nephew and he later became
a vane famous Wahhabi Hakim even Azam
also would do this once in a while he
would send in some food secretly
otherwise they'd eat down in existence
it is said that when they tried to go to
the city even when foreigners came
because foreigners are not heard of the
boycott during hajj season they're
coming with supplies sometimes they try
to sneak in some food sometimes they
were successful other times if they were
caught or they people saw them abu jahal
would come and say do not sell to these
people I will pay you double whatever
they're offering you I'll pay you double
because those people are not barred
right it's only the horatio are barred
from selling to the Muslims so when a
foreign businessman came even then Abu
Lahab would say would you I would say
don't don't pay anything I'm going to
pay you double even during these two
three years the profitsystem continued
to give that wa during the Hajj season
he would go out of the valley and he
would meet with the tribes during the
Hajj season and continue to try to find
converts to the faith when did and how
did the boycott stop as we said the
boycott probably lasted two or three
years and a number of incidents are
happened that brought about its
conclusion the first of these is that
the Prophet SAW some made a dua
against him and said o Allah send upon
them a famine like the famine of use of
that bad send upon them a drought and a
famine like the famine of Yusuf and so
the famine became so bad for the people
of Mecca that they were forced to eat
carcasses and to chew on a dead animal
skin they had nothing else left after
that time and they realized this was
because of the drop of the prophet
salallahu alayhi wa send them and they
sent some messengers to try to bring
about some reconciliation the second
incident and again all of these things
shows that two three four things happen
at the same time the second incident is
that some of the people of Quraysh whose
hearts were softer we already said this
some of their names they decided that
they should do something to break the
pact and so the main one here was Hisham
even amber and Hisham even Amer
was the grandson of Abdul Muttalib
through his mother his mother was Attica
his mother was Attica bint Abdul
Muttalib so his mother is the aunt of
the Prophet SAW sir
so the past
his cousin threw his mother so his
mother's brother is Abdullah so uh um
Shama been Amer Hisham been amber felt
that he needed to do something so he
called his friend zu haben Evy oh mama
and they said what can we do to bring
about an end to this boycott so they
said first thing we need to do is to
bring about all of the people who are
sympathetic get them together
commonsense get some strength together
so they thought who can they invite and
they invited the people whom we
mentioned multiband ID number one under
this multi-body let's bring him in I
will book to the even Hisham other
people three four five people whom they
knew did not like the boycott strengthen
numbers as always brings you that
strength and then they said what can we
do what plan can we do so Zoe said I
have a plan
tomorrow when although the people are in
the gathering of the cauterization the
nadi in the parliament does not this is
what we're going to do so he laid out a
plan the next day they went to the cab
and they all seated where they usually
sit everyone goes to his place in this
corner that corner that corner then so
he stood up and he began asking and so
hey was the one who was the farthest
removed genealogically so the least
doubt will be about his Nia about his
intention Yandy if Hashem has stood up
they're going to say you're his cousin
who are you so so hate is a bit farther
away so so he stood up and he said for
how long are we going to starve our own
kith and kin to death this is a evil
thing that we have sir it's brave is
basically speaking the truth right Abu
jahil became furious who do you think
you are we all agreed to this treaty so
when he said this
Hisham stood up no I didn't agree you
agreed this is your idea what do you
mean is my idea we all we had a meeting
here motorhome stood up no we didn't
this was something you forced on us
right
I didn't force it on you we all agreed
then the the fourth noble birth till he
stood up right so one by one every
single person planted strategically
around the the Nadi is basically
publicly challenging Abuja and Abu jahil
did not have anybody to support him to
that level because he was the one who
was the
most antagonist ik right and so I would
yeah I realize something is wrong people
are just standing up one after the other
and he said well lie this is a plan that
all of you have hatched this is a plan
that all and that was true right it was
a plan they at all that this is a plan
that all of you have hatched but of
course they didn't confess to this and
it seemed as if the public support had
now shifted away and then the final
thing happened that of course completely
turned the tide
one day the profitsystem went to abu
talib in the sharp in the valley and he
said that oh my uncle allah has informed
me that the treaty that they wrote has
been eaten up by termites or ants except
for the phrase bhisma column just in the
name of allah the whole treaty now the
kaaba is locked up nobody goes in and if
the termites are on the paper they
should also be on the cap i mean you
wouldn't expect the trauma just to go
there and and how would anybody know
this and of course it is in a sealed
pouch you know they have a parchment
they seal it up it's in a cloth and
everything so the process of him said
Allah has told me a lot informed me that
the whole contract has been eaten up
except for bhisma kalo abu thought have
said your lord has told you this he said
yes he has told me this I will thought
have said I will stake my whole case on
this he said yes take it on this so I
will taught him then for the first time
since the enactment of the treaty
marched back with the group of basically
non-muslims of the banu hashim and the
shows us to pan Allah how strong are the
ties of jahaly kinship then even though
they're not Muslims still it's a matter
of pride how could you have done this
there was only one coward I forgot to
mention one coward who refused to be
deprived of the luxury of living in the
city and that is Abu lap Abu Lahab was
the one person who basically publicly
denounced like I have nothing to do with
these guys anymore I am now on your side
and he basically defected away if you
like from the de banu hashim so abu
jahal did not
live in the boycott he went he was in
the city of Makkah so the Prophet SAW
said I'm told I will taught it I will
thought it went back into the the Haram
for the first time and he said all my
people let's forget about everything
let's just bring out this treaty and
let's see if we can reach a negotiation
and deal so they became happy that maybe
you're going to agree to hand over the
processor so they took out the treaty
from the it's still in the instead still
in the the capsular still in the the
cloth right and they put it here now I
will thought have said my nephew has
informed me that his Lord has told him
that the treaty is no longer in
existence everything has been eaten
except bhisma Kalam
so my challenge to you is abu talib
stakes at all on his iman in the Prophet
saws I'm telling the truth
my challenge to you is if that is the
case then let us be and we'll return to
Mecca and we'll ignore the whole
incident basically and if it's not then
I'll hand over him to you
instantaneously do with him as you
please
he staked everything on what the process
of told him right so they said well of
course I mean it seems obvious to them
why would that possibly harm them and so
they opened up the bag they opened up
the cloth and lo and behold there was no
treaty except for the phrase bhisma
cologne and they were fury ated they
said this is of the sahara magic that
he's done but they couldn't do anything
because the promise had been given and
therefore this allowed them to return
back to Mecca and this was what caused
the treaty to be to be annulled and
during this time there's a incidence
that we cannot narrate because there's
too advanced Arabic one of the things
that's the most interesting of this time
I will father wrote what is considered
to be the most eloquent poem of the
Arabic language during this time and it
is called the Lamia it is called the
Lamia of Abu Talib because every single
verse ends with the letter Lam every
single verse ends with that letter damn
so it's called the Lamia the the poem of
lamb and it is around a hundred lines of
poetry and it is you know
firstly acknowledged to be the pinnacle
really of a it was not quite pre-islamic
poetry but the poetry of that era even
kathira says this poem beats all of the
seven Moloch artists of are the seven
hanging Oats beats all of them not just
in style but in content because the
seven hanging O's they talk about women
and love and romance and wine whereas
this one is talking about the the
quraysh's treatment of them and how evil
the Quraysh were and what they did and
the fact that the harem has not even
protected the Polish from doing this to
their own kith and kin and so the
content is absolutely powerful
unfortunately because we're giving the
talk in English and we'll like even if
we were doing it in Arabic I challenge
any Arab to read this lamby and
understand it you understand what your
poetry is like right and it's very
advanced and very beautiful nonetheless
abu talib composed during this time and
it is recorded all even Hisham and
others record all of this poem some of
the benefits we gain from this and
inshallah open the floor for Q&A some of
the benefits we gain it's amazing to see
the ties of kinship amongst the banu
hashim the mud double abdomen of even
those who are not Muslim they're going
to suffer along with the Muslims nearly
out of a nationalistic pride an anger
that they could be treated this way Abu
thought it was not a Muslim and he
stayed there in his tent he stayed there
for two or three years it is all a part
of the wisdom in Dawa therefore to
utilize those who have a soft spot to
take advantage of those who want to
stand up for truth and justice here we
see that three four five six people from
the Quraysh they wanted to help the
Muslims they wanted to help the Muslims
and the profitsystem took advantage of
that help every single nation and
society has some people that are mean
and some people that are nice every
religion has some good and some bad and
we take the good from the people when
they offer it and we use it against
their own bad which is what the process
of did right these were Quraysh not all
of them were evil and mean-spirited even
if they're all pagans and idol
worshippers some of them wanted to break
the boycott and so the profitsystem took
advantage of that and we too in this
land we're going to find people who they
have nothing but hatred of Islam they
don't want to hear anything and there
are others who want to stand up for
truth for freedom they want to be
open-minded and tolerant and just like
the prophets ISM we need to take
advantage and reach out to those who are
open-minded reach out to those who want
to support freedom and use it against
their own bigotry like the prophet
sallallahu alayhi wasallam
did and therefore from this story we
learned that the Prophet SAW summoned
and the Sahaba they returned back to
Mecca probably two and a half years
because somebody wise they say to some
say three probably around the tenth year
of the Dawa when the Prophet system was
around 49 years old they finally
returned to Mecca but unfortunately as
we'll discover soon inshallah as we
continue allah subhanho wa taala tested
them with some of the most traumatic and
troubling tests and trials at this time
the death of Abel thought of the death
of Khadijah and then the incident of
thought if one low after the other this
was the lowest period of the serie of
the prophet's asylum and this will all
be a precursor to the emigration to
medina and inshallah that is something
we will continue talking about later on
if there any questions now much although
we can take them and then break for
salat Elisha
we person was that also because of the
issue of Miraj we will talk about each
other as well later on there are so many
opinions when Minaj took place some say
5th year of the Daiwa
some say 70 of the Dawa some say 10th
year of the Iowa some say the last year
of the Dawa
there's even opinion that they were
multiple mirage there's even a pin that
there were multiple mirage one of the
biggest problems that the researcher of
the serie has there was no calendar at
that time there was no dates
nobody said in the fifth year of the
Dawa and the seventh year of The Hitcher
nobody said that we all know the
calendar was initiated by Omar in the
seventeenth year of the agent correct
right so nobody is telling us dates
they're just telling us things that
happened and every single book of ceará
that you read in our times is a
reconstruction of many many small
tidbits narrated that the author of the
Serie book has to reconstruct and even
Hashem himself is no exception
exception but even even Hashem has to
reconstruct events because he doesn't
know when exactly it took place so even
Hisham is one opinion you might find
another opinion inside you might find
another opinion in other books and it is
difficult to say for certain when the
asturian maharaj took place most
scholars say that it took place after
the death of abroad and the death of
Khadijah and the incident of life and if
this is the case then it makes a lot of
logical sense but the fact of the matter
is at an academic level I have to tell
you we don't have anything definitive
about when it took place in terms of
linking it to a year we don't I will
feel
we don't have a definitive Easter I'm
talking about no there's nothing
narrated about the way that the Arabs
would have calendars is the way that
many pagan societies had calendars and
that is that they would reference a year
by something major that happened in it
this was the year that of the motive
died this was the year that the the
elephant attack this was the year this
is how jaggedy so you know as you grow
older you are witnessing the years so
you remember this was the year the
tsunami struck this was the hurricane
came this was the year so they would
mention a one event of the year and the
year would then be known by that
incident right but we don't have records
of what these years were called when on
what Institute in the calendar call us
and yeah and even that the records that
we have are incidents not years and
dates this happened that happened this
then we need to reconstruct and this is
the biggest problem of the Sira not just
for this issue for any and every issue
Yanni I've done a lot of research into
the Battle of wood and one of the most
confusing things about the Battle of
ofit is you have maybe 150 smaller
hadith well how do you know what's the
order of these are hadith and not just
the order but in fact there are
simultaneous things happening right it's
the three dimensional battle right
there's one front here another front
there another front there it's almost
impossible really to stay definitively
you just have to have a little bit of
guesswork a little bit of telecoil know
when you when you say this and it's a
very difficult thing at an academic
level of course at a simple level you
read a book of Sirach I'm not good but
at a more advanced level it's very
difficult to try to piece this together
and I feel that it's not fair to not
tell you this so I think it is
appropriate that you should know
academically is stolen Miraj of course
we believe it happened it was mentioned
in the Quran javi there are so many a
hadith but when did it happen we really
don't know if somebody were to say the
5th year of the Dawa there would be
evidence for that and if somebody would
say the 10th 11th year of the Dawa
there's evidence for that law out of you
Vidia custodial and these gates there
with some world wars acceptor how do we
decide how we go how do we get that kind
of a jet Miller watch the time you stop
because that's not
so the question is and how do we know
when to stop and want to continue
there's no doubt that we have a limited
life and limited resources and we need
to prioritize you know basically plant
seeds where they're fertile earth is
fertile soil there's no doubt about that
you know we are active where there is a
room for being active and when we find
the stubbornness a wall being put
between us and the person we feel
disinclined to engage notice that the
profitsystem in the early phase of the
Dawa ie when it was a private that WA he
only went to those whom he thought would
be open-minded and he didn't even go to
a Buddha that's why tabatha de vida came
down he didn't go to Abuja you know so
we need to have the sense of well who do
we think is going to be more productive
to go to when I said we don't lose hope
I mean we don't pass a verdict on
somebody and say fellas there's never
any hope for him there's no doubt our
resources are limited we will have to
choose the people that we feel are more
conducive more open-minded and that will
be a judgement call
even if we're wrong our HT had will not
be punished by Allah you know we're
doing our best and if somebody comes to
us like Oh what came to the processor
the process never approached erma
because he didn't think it was wise to
do so he didn't approach abu jahil but
he did approach many other people who
didn't accept islam al walid a minute
later we mentioned him right
he went to Al Waleed multiple times many
of the other seniors of Quraysh so we
need to use our better judgment and also
of course there's a common sense point
whoever you have access to your circle
of interaction is unique to you in the
whole world nobody has your degrees of
influence right nobody has your circle
of interaction so you need to see what
is the best way the best time the best
methodology and inshallah whatever HT
had you do you're going to be you know
rewarded for this inshallah sisters any
quick
in private or with a group because I
don't remember in private ever maybe
there isn't but online what I remember
what I recall reading close it down
certain somebody's going to come to my
door and ask for something I would give
it to him at the console it will say
that in fact that he not
I would have given it but I'm not going
to accept that
before the studio I'll have to look this
one up and from what I recall he never
approached I wish I had one on one
it was always in a gathering but if this
is true then because these were the two
most powerful most influential people so
he's saying oh Allah gift me one of
these two people give me one of these
two people and he knew that Allah could
do whatever he wins right so from this
we derived like I said it is a part of
our wisdom to concentrate and to give
extra attention to those who are people
of respect and power and knowledge and
then what there's no question about that
sisters any questions with the sisters
then let's go ahead
the inertia although then they would get
the vertical was absolutely against
Muslims but they weren't with them for
the work they see how far that Muslims
reciprocate
how far can the Muslims reciprocate
there is no clear cut a line about this
and is something we need to leave to the
scholars of every era to discuss how
much reciprocation is allowed you know
as long as the shard of Islam are not
compromised as long as we don't have to
worship false gods or do Haram right to
defend with life limb and property this
is something the scholars will decide
that to what level can we go to is a
very deep question and it's a very
pertinent question in our times looking
at the circumstances we're in and it is
a question that varies from time to time
and place to place and it varies from
conflict to conflict as well but what
might be permitted in one conflict might
not be permitted to another so we leave
it to the scholars of that Iiro and I
know it's a cop-out answer but it is the
truth it's not we cannot have a precise
answer for this at times we will defend
them to the death and we accept well
expect a lot to reward us right and at
times it's not something that is worth
our our lives and we'll just define
financially and verbally and it depends
as we said time to time place to place
with this I'm afraid
