alhamdulillah My dear brothers and
sisters and guests we begin as always by
thanking and
praising the one who created the heavens
and the
earth And we ask Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala also to send his peace and
blessings upon the messenger Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi
wasallam Tonight we have a lecture by
our dear brother Bil
Assad and he will be addressing the
topic of Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wasallam and his compassion to the world
to
mankind Here we'll be talking about the
greatest man who walked upon this earth
The man that you and I need to take as
an example We need to know about him and
we need to follow in his footsteps the
man whom Allah said about
him and we did not send you oh Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam except as a
mercy means all of Allah's creation not
just Muslims
non-Muslims animals plants he is a mercy
to all of creation so we ask our dear
brother B to come forward and present
the compassion of Muhammad to the world
which is
[Music]
Alhamdulillah
My brothers and sisters in
Islam I ask Allahh to benefit us with
what we are about to listen to today and
to make us a guide for those who come
after us to our friends to our family
and to all of
those whether they ask or don't ask
about Islam to make us at all in
spreading this wonderful wonderful
message Tonight my dear brothers and
sisters I will
attempt to share with you a night of
peace and tranquility
together And I intend to
talk about the compassion and mercy of
our beloved Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wasallam not only to
mankind As the topic
suggested mankind the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam did not only come
as a compassion and mercy to only
mankind He came as a compassion and
mercy to the whole
world to everyone and to everything
And the way that I intend to present
this is by going back and showing you
some stories or examples of the prophet
sallall alaihi wasallam and the way that
how he was
compassionate towards the different
beings in his life
How he showed his compassion towards all
creatures human beings even the gins the
Muslims and the non-Muslims the women
and children his wives his sons and
daughters and the sons and daughters of
all the other believers the poor and the
old the sick and the sad the animals and
the insects even how he showed his
compassion
even towards enemies of Islam how he
treated
them and how he treated women in
general And finally I will conclude
inshallah with the question why do we
love Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam
so much Why That's towards the end
inshallah
My brothers and sisters in Islam the
reason why I chose this topic is
basically
because this miraculous man Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi
wasallam of whom many historians and
orientalists Muslims and
non-Muslims have praised him so much
past and present and ranked him as the
highest most influential successful ful
man ever to walk on the face of the
earth Such a man how can I go How can
any of us go without defending
him and speaking the truth about him and
about his examples and his
parables How can one pass by such a
great man and not mention his qualities
and
characteristics If
anybody knows this man Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi
wasallam and does not inform about him
in the correct way any authentic manner
then such a person is an evil human
being because the prophet sallallaihi
wasallam came to share the mercy with
all the human
beings and all the creatures and you
will be restricting
that We are not a selfish people
the author
of a book called the 100 a ranking of
the most influential persons in history
This author's name is Michael Hart I
think you may have heard of him He says
"My choice of Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wasallam to lead the list of the world's
most influential persons may surprise
some readers and may be questioned by
others but he was the only man in
history who was supremely successful on
both the religious and secular level."
This is a non-Muslim man talking about
Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam this
way My dear brothers and sisters from
here I would like to mention that the
prophet sallallah.aii wasallam peace of
Allah and his blessings be upon him said
to his
companions inform about me even if you
only know one parable So if we know
about the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam something that is correct and
authentic we should inform all the
people of the world because one parable
wah he can change
people and from here Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala says in the Quran which everyone
can read about the messenger sallallahu
alaihi wasallam
And we have not sent you oh messenger of
Allah for any other
reason except to be a mercy to the whole
world Except to be a mercy to the whole
world everyone
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala also tells us
about the qualities of this great
messenger by
[Music]
saying which means there has certainly
ly come to you a messenger from among
yourselves Grievious and hurtful to
him it is when you suffer When we suffer
prophetam gets
hurt and he feels pain for our suffering
Eagerly concerned over us in guidance
compassionate and merciful to the
believers
This is the type of messenger and
prophet that we are talking about My
brothers and sisters in Islam every
prophet that came to their people we do
not neglect their compassion which
Allahh brought them with too We do not
neglect the compassion of Isaam Jesus
Christ the son of Mary Nor do we neglect
the compassion of Mus or Abraham or all
the other prophets Daw known as David or
Alisam and the rest of the other
prophets for all the prophets of Allah
they are a mercy to the people and they
are a compassion to all the people for
it is Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and we
heard yesterday's talk by our brother
dear brother Abu Hamza how he was
talking about the mercy of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala there is no one more
merc mer mer mer mer mer mer mer mer mer
mer mer mer mer mer mer mer mer mer mer merciful than Allah So how can he send
someone who is not also merciful and
compassionate How So we are talking
about people who are sent from Allah the
most merciful with a message and a
guidance for all of mankind and all of
the gins all the people of the
world The prophet sallallah.aii alaihi
wasallam used to address his companions
first of all in the most beloved
fashion and the most honorable
way In fact he used to treat every
individual as if he or she were the most
favorable in his eyes So every single
companion used to think that they are
the most
beloved most favored by this messenger
sallallahu alaihi wasallam If you met
him you will think that Muhammad sallall
alaihi wasallam loves you the most
because of the way he used to treat
every person individually with
sensitivity and you used to analyze what
is sensitive to
you and avoid it until you would think
that he loves you the most
Every single companion thought they were
the most beloved and this way the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam kept the
unity of his
companions and abomish abolished the
jealousy and hatred and the envy that
could exist between them So each one of
them was a special character for him And
this is the way the prophet wasallam
teaches us to deal towards one another
ourselves and towards our children not
to try and show the favorism of one to
another
So he used to say to them
all I am to you like a person who is
trying to keep away
butterflies from burning in a blazing
flame So he tries to keep away the
butterflies from burning in the blazing
flame and they just keep wanting to come
and throw themselves in the blazing
flame because it looks attractive to
them
This is how the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam used to teach us and his
companions how he is to us He said I am
like one who is guarding you from the
flame I am the one who is guarding you
from the fire because it's too
attractive and I'm leading you away from
it because it can harm you and directing
you to the great
salvation Nothing different to what the
other prophets came before him said for
he they are all the messengers of Allah
and the messenger of Allah is one Allah
means God By the
way the companions used to say to the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam "Oh
messenger of Allah when we are with you
when we are with you we feel as if there
are angels surrounding us and we are
about to be literally risen from the
earth and placed into Jenna in paradise
We're about to flutter above the earth
and go right to the heavens
But when we depart from your company oh
messenger of God we feel
empty We feel
empty as if all goodness has abandoned
us as well The prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam said to them "My companions it
is because you are with the messenger of
God whom God Allahh has sent him with
great mercy to all of the people Why
will you not feel such a thing when you
are around me Learn from
it My dear brothers and sisters the
prophet sallallah.aii alaihi wasallam He
sacrificed his blood and his wealth and
his
time for our sake in order to save
us In a time where kufur like disbelief
took them pro prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam and his followers as the
greatest enemies and wanted to persecute
them and drive them out of their homes
and torture them and punish them and
strip them from all wealth and all
possessions and disunite between them
only because they said we worship one
god and they called to it Those people
of the kufur at that
time the enemies who hated this call
they didn't want this to spread So they
began disuniting between every person
who says God is only
one The prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam never lifted a sword at anybody
or forced them to enter into Islam
He never forced anyone to embrace this
religion because a person who was to
become a Muslim must become a sincere
Muslim from the heart otherwise they are
not accepted by Allah as Muslims You
have to be sincere and accept it
fullheartedly For 14 whole years the
prophet sallallah.aii wasallam only
invited the people never lifted a finger
or a sword to fight
anyone Yet they persecuted him and his
people and his followers He had to keep
it a secret in the beginning sallallahu
alaihi wasallam and he began his message
brothers and sisters The first people
whom he be began with were his family So
he called his uncles and he called his
his uh first cousins and his tribe and
he stood before them after 40 years of
knowing him to be a truthful prophet and
said to them "Oh my people if I were to
tell you that an army is about to
approach you and attack you from behind
those mountains
now will you believe me
They all said with one voice "We have
never known you to be a liar Oh
messenger oh Muhammad you are a noble
man who has always been truthful and
honest We believe you." He said "Well
then I have come to you to warn you from
falling into hellfire and that God has
sent me as a messenger for you to
abandon the worship of idols which you
carve with your hands and to worship the
creator of
everything."
Sayahill Say there is only one God and
you will be successful
As soon as he said that word the first
one was his uncle Abuahab He stood up
and he
said it's like he swore at at
him Is this what you what you came and
gathered us for If you asked us for a
thousand words other than that we will
respond But this word never you're
asking us to leave and abandon the our
ancestral
belief Muhammad sallallahu alaihi
wasallam replied I am but a warner to
you Another person then replied and said
"Go away O person You've gone crazy it
seems." And the people began one after
the other insulting the messenger
sallallahu alaihi wasallam Except for
one person he accepted And that even
made the matter worse because that one
person that accepted was a young boy at
the age of only seven between seven or
10 years old His name was Ali He said "I
believe what you said Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam." So the
people began to laugh Look a young only
a young boy accepted what he
said So the prophet sallallaihi wasallam
then said "I say one final word to
you I am but like a warner warning
messenger who has come to warn you of a
coming army that is about to attack you
and kill you and I'm trying to save you
from that." And then he walked away
sallallahu alaihi wasallam But he didn't
give up for 14 whole years after that As
I said continued trying to save these
people from hellfire trying to save them
from a fabricated religion which their
ancestors brought them with based on
culture And this culture my dear
brothers and sisters
was full of oppression
injustice The prophet sallallah.aii
alaihi wasallam was so kind and
compassionate to all the people that met
him that the people of Quraysh who
didn't want anyone to become a
Muslim they were so afraid that anybody
would even lay eyes on the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam or even hear
a single word that they used to say to
to them do not approach this man for
he has words of sorcery if you listen to
him you'll become magnetized and
hypnotized
But as soon as one person sat with him
one word made these people these
companions say to the messenger a common
motto Do you know what that was They
used to say as soon as they sat with him
for a few
minutes oh messenger of God I am ready
to sacrifice everything I have in your
cause before even my father and mother
That was their common mot Who can say
that to someone Who can now here sit
here and say to some beloved person of
yours Say to them I am ready to
sacrifice everything I have my blood my
wealth my honor everything in your cause
even before my mother and father Who can
say that to anyone else Who There is no
one there is no one more valuable than
your mother and father except the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala They used to
say to him with only a few minutes
I sacrifice everything in your cause
before my mom and dad Oh messenger of
God Why were they crazy people Were they
insane They were
leaders They were people who understood
very well They were linguisticians who
understood language very well And they
could easily differentiate between words
of the Quran and the words of poetry or
the words of magic or whatever it was
Are the billions of
Muslims
today all crazy and insane There has to
be a
secret The companions of the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam felt the love
of their messenger So much so that the
prophet peace be upon him when he was
forced into battle like in a war
battle The companions used to say
When the war became too intense for us
and we couldn't charge anymore we used
to go and run and hide behind the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam's back and
used to defend us sallallahu alaihi
wasallam In the battle of Hunain another
fierce battle the Muslims were almost
about to lose and they were running away
Then the messenger sallall alaihi
wasallam said "Oh my companion servants
of Allah come come and seek refuge
behind me I will defend you." Who of us
is ready to do that And the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam is ready to die in
defense of his
companions and he said Allah will not
lose
us Nobody can ever ever equal the
messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam and
his compassion towards
us Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam's
compassion to the humans in
general I'm going to give you some
examples of how he was to the humans in
general Muslim non-Muslim
anyone As we said his main aim was to
invite the people and call them from
falling into disaster in this world and
in the hereafter
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala had commanded
him that he must go out and invite the
people and call them to worship one god
and to save them with sincerity from
hellfire because neither god nor his
prophets want anyone to be burnt in
hellfire not one of
them So the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam after he called the people of
Mecca Allah ordered him to go outside of
Mecca and call another people The
following story my brothers and sisters
wall I've read it many times It always
brings tears to my eyes when I remember
my beloved prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam This place which he had gone to
was it's a common place known in Saudi
Arabia today At that time they were full
of people who worshiped idols and were
non-believers It's about 60 km away from
Mecca So he went on that journey with
his freed slave like he had a slave whom
he bought and then freed him That was a
common practice of the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam And he
ordered and advised his companions to do
the same thing Buy slaves and free them
So he freed his slave named Znar
And they went out
to as soon as he arrived to he spoke
with the first man he saw and said with
the most greatest wisdom of words and
the kindest manner The prophet
sallallaihi wasallam used to approach
them and say I am a messenger of God and
God has brought the Quran to you and
used to recite the Quran to them to
prove to them how this is not words of
man And then he would advise them and
tell them the commandments and the
prohibitions and the wisdoms which Allah
brought to him The first man scorned him
and said away from me oh you crazy man
So he went to another man a leader of
theirs and he said to him "Couldn't God
have sent any other messenger than you?"
And then another man said to him he said
"If you truly are a prophet then I am
not worthy of listening to you And if
you are not a prophet then you're a liar
Get away from you insignificant man
Scorns after scorns until finally he
stayed there for more than seven nights
10 days more than 10 days calling the
people and trying to address them Wallah
with his full heart trying to save them
So they got sick of him Not one of them
responded Not one They got so sick of
him that they wanted to exile him and
throw him out He was an un unwelcome
guest So they brought the children young
boys and girls And they brought the
women behind the boys and girls And then
the men the slaves and the servants
behind the women And then their leaders
stood even behind them watching and
laughing as they subjected the prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam to a narrow
path Imagine now a line on this side and
a line on this side Boys and girls women
at the back servants and peasants on the
other side and they're all throwing
rocks at you spitting at you throwing
dirty material filthy impure things at
your face at your at your legs and and
swearing at you in a land which is so
strange to you and you don't know anyone
there and you've come to them with a
true message All you're doing is just
inviting and saying pure words of
kindness and you haven't harmed anyone
and this is the way you've been treated
The prophet sallallaihi wasallam was z
walking between these two lines They
threw the filth at him sallallahu alaihi
wasallam until his legs began to bleed
on both sides and zed tried to protect
him and he was injured in his head and
the blood was seeping from him
subjecting him to a few kilometers down
almost about 2
km all on his side children spitting at
him cursing him abusing him laughing at
him pointing at
him sallallahu alaihi wasallam almost a
42 or 43 year old
man until finally at that time very
tired and exhausted he sought refuge in
one of the numerous
gardens He sat tired beneath one of the
trees of the gardens and the people left
him But Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sent
two sons of
Rab and they felt a bit of remorse for
this man So they said to their servant
they had a slave a Christian slave and
his name was Adas said him go and take
this tray of grapes to that man We feel
sorry for him So Adas the Christian
slave went to the prophet sallallahu
alaihi
wasallam and he gave him the
grapes Then the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam said some words which shocked
Adas He
said because when we eat we say
bismillah in the name of
God The manas looked at him peculiarly
and said where did you learn these words
These words are not common to the people
of this land I've never heard them
before
The prophet sallallaihi wasallam looked
at him with a smile because that's his
character Even though he was treated so
badly by all the people of the
city Listen to this carefully brothers
and sisters I have a very important
message
here He never ever
generalized Every single individual was
a potential Muslim and a potential good
person He looked at Hadas and smiled And
he asked him "Oh oh
person where are you from?" And Adas
said to him "I am from a place called
Nino." The prophet sallallaihi wasallam
said "Noah the place where Yuna is from
Jonah." Abdas looked at him and said
asked "How do you know How do you know
Yunas Jonah tell me about Jonah." It was
mentioned in the Bible The prophet peace
be upon him then said Jonah is my
brother meaning his brother in
prophethood and he is a prophet of God
and I am also a prophet of God As soon
as he said that Adas began to kiss his
forehead and his hands and his legs and
he began to cry the his leaders who were
looking at him they raced raced after
him and said to him "Dash come back here
What are you doing?" They brought him
back and they said to him "Don't follow
him Your religion is better than his
religion Don't get stung by him." And
Adas looked at him at them with crying
face and he said to
them wallah by God because that's what
they used to
say no man knows what this man knows
about Jonah except for another
prophet At that moment my dear brothers
and sisters the prophet sallallah.aii
wasallam said his famous dua which is so
emotional and preserved till
today An encounter of how the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam expressed his
distressed soul to us He lifted his arms
up to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala And
that's what every Muslim does brothers
and sisters When you are in stress we
are in despair when you are in loss of
hope say "Ya Allah turn to Allah." And
he said "Ya Allah oh
Allah sorry." He said
"Allah to you alone I complain of my
weakness my insufficient ability and my
insignificance in the eyes of the people
You are the most merciful of all
mercifuls You are the Lord of the
helpless and the weak Oh my Lord into
whose hands would you abandon me to into
the hands of an unsympathetic distant
relative who will angrily frown at me or
to the enemy to have control over my
life Oh my Lord but if you are not angry
with me then all of this does no longer
matters to me All of it doesn't concern
me Your pardon is ample enough for me I
seek the protection in the light of your
face which illuminates the darkness May
it never be that I should ever earn your
anger or that you should ever become
angry at me And there is no no power or
resource except with you Oh
Allah when all else fails my brothers
and sisters your companion is Allah
subhanahu wa
ta'ala The prophet sallallaihi wasallam
complained to him and do you know what
happened On his
way the angel Gabriel came down He said
I I felt like a cloud was above me I
looked above was Jirel He had come down
and he said to me I have with me the
angel of the
mountains if you
want you can talk to him Then the angel
of the mountain said "Oh messenger of
God we know your distress state and we
know how these people have treated you
If you want me I will crush them between
the two
mountains that were
surrounding I will crush them and
destroy them." Just say the
word Now what would one of us do
brothers and sisters in this situation
At least we want some
revenge Do you know what the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam said You see it's
in his nature to be compassionate He
said
no for maybe Allah will bring out from
their pro from their progeny from their
loins from their children later on in
the future sometime Maybe in the future
they will have
children who will believe in the one
true God subhanahu wa
ta'ala Do not destroy them If they
cannot be saved then maybe their
children will be
saved What is the prophet sallallahu
alaihi wasallam going to get out of it
when he is dead For those people who say
this man who
came there is something that he wanted
out of it He wanted fortune or fame
But after his death why would he want
fortune or
fame To worship one god So
what Because the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam is a mercy to
mankind When we speak about the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam's generosity wall
we cannot go beyond his generosity and
no one can ever resemble him or equal
him in that He would never eat better
food until he was sure that his people
have eaten
already And sometimes there will be
three whole months that would pass by
the prophet sallallaihi wasallam's
family household and no
meat will be eaten Three months Because
the prophet wasallam if he wanted he
could be
rich But every time he sought richness
every time he had some wealth he had
some possession there was always someone
in need And he would distribute it In
fact he would do it so much the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam that one time he
was standing up of many times and he was
distributing from his wealth and his
possessions to the needy and the poor He
was calling out "Oh hungry people come
to me Oh poor people come to me Take
from this take from that." Because
prophetam teaches us that from our
wealth and from our
possessions there are some of them that
do not belong to us They belong to the
poor people Because they belong first of
all to Allah And he says part of your
wealth belongs to the poor people The
messenger wasallam the example for us
calling them to him and right at the end
after he depleted everything he had a
better man came along and bowins at
those days were very harsh people and
they were very rude and not very
intelligent
either so he came up to Muhammad
wasallam from behind the people and
grabbed the prophet sallallaihi wasallam
from his collar and he pulled him
vigorously down towards him until he
made the prophet sallallaihi wasallam's
neck have a streak
of blood around his neck That's how hard
he pulled him The prophet wasallam was
in pain So what he did was he didn't
push him off He didn't beat him up He
didn't kick him off He leaned towards
him only to ease the pain on his neck
Sallallahu alaihi
wasallam And the better one said to
him "Give me from your wealth Give
me." The prophet could have said to him
"Why should I give you?" The prophet
sallallaihi wasallam said to him "I
don't have I don't have any more to
give." The man said "By Allah you will
give me from your wealth." He thought he
was lying So the prophet sallallah
wasallam said "Wait for me." After the
people departed he took his hand and he
took him to his own house fed
him sheltered
him comforted him and gave him a place
to sleep for three days and three nights
at his own house and fed him from what
he feeds from his family Whatever he
had At the end of the three days the
badawan stood up and he realized his
mistake He ended up loving this
compassionate prophet sallallaihi
wasallam so much that he called the
people and he said behold
everyone means behold in Arabic when you
want people's
attention Oh Allah have mercy on me and
mercy on Muhammad but don't have mercy
on anyone else This is the only one that
was good to
me The prophet sallallaihi wasallam
didn't stop there He brought him up and
he said to him secretly and quietly not
to sort of insult him said to him no
Allah's mercy is great and encompasses
all people So then the bad one nodded
his head and he got up and he
said "Oh Allah give mercy to me and
Muhammad wasallam and give mercy to all
of the
people." Prophet sallall alaihi wasallam
this is what he taught his people to say
and
do The prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam when we look at the example of
how we treated the old people and the
weak people our minds cannot grasp it
and we just want to see his face and
kiss it night and day night and day
night and day Subhan Allah The prophet
sallallahu alaihi
wasallam once he saw an old woman and
you might know this story he didn't ask
about her religion or what she followed
or where she came from That's what this
this is not important to the Muslims
because when you are sincere it doesn't
matter what color you are what
nationality you are what uh status you
come from what religion you are good
service is good service So the prophet
wasallam saw this old woman She had no
one beside her to help and she was
trying to lift some luggage up onto her
satchel onto her camel and trying to go
home When the prophet sallallaihi
wasallam saw her immediately raced to
help her He carried them on top and
helped her and dragged the camel along
and helped the old woman and kept her
company all the way until she reached to
her Put her luggage down made her
comfortable and made sure that
everything has been given to her So then
she looked at him and said to him "Oh
young man your face is full of light and
your words are full of comfort You bring
softness to my heart and you are one of
the best people I've ever met I thank
you for this company How can I ever
repay you The only thing I have is not
wealth or money or possessions but I
have an advice for you In those days
advices used to be bought for the price
of camels in those days like a price of
car today So he said yes advise me
Prophet used to accept advices from old
women So he said to him she said to him
there is a man his name is Muhammad and
he's a very bad man He has disunited the
people and disunited us from our family
He teaches people sorcery and he leads
them astray from the ancestral belief
Keep away from him I don't want you to
be destroyed You are too too good of a
man So then wah this is a true story
True story And she said then finally she
asked him for his name and the prophetam
is patient and calm What would one of us
do He turned around and smiled and said
my name is Muhammad sallallah.aii
wasallam She said Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wasallam She could not do
anything except sit down on her knees
and
say "I bear witness that there is only
one God and you are his messenger
because only a messenger can be this way
Only a messenger can be this way."
Brothers and sisters our dawa doesn't
have to be given with our tongues all
the time Some of us are not good with
our tongues but maybe in our character
and attitude which we lack so much today
I'm going to talk about that a little
bit more
The prophet sallallaihi wasallam was in
the service of all weak people One time
a man from Qurayshes a non-Muslim he
approached the people and said to them
Abu Jahal he used to call him Abdul
Hakam He was one of the greatest leaders
of the Quraysh Everyone feared him He
was a big and strong man very wealthy a
leader And he was one of the greatest
enemies to the prophet sallallaihi
wasallam He said to the people "Excuse
me I'm not from this land This man Abu
Hakam who was really Abu Jahal the
father of ignorance I've loaned him
money a long time ago and they are due
to be given back to me I'm a poor man
and weak Can anyone help me get my money
back from him So then they looked at
each other and they thought let's have a
bit of a laugh They looked at the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam He
was praying near the cabba and they said
to him see that man over there They said
yes Said go to him ask him to get you
your money He can do something about
it So he went to the prophet sallallaihi
wasallam and said to him "Excuse me I've
been told by these people that you can
get my money back from this man He's
taken my money and my children are going
to die of hunger."
The prophet sallallaihi wasallam said
"Yes I can help you." Subhan Allah Abu
Jah he was the one who wanted to kill
the prophet sallall alaihi wasallam The
leader paying money to assassinate the
messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam He
went and knocked on his door As soon as
Abu Jahal opened the door he gave him
the money and the prophet wasallam went
back and said "This is your money." He
said "Thank you very
much." The people were looking at him
were flabbergasted They said "How did he
do that?" So they went to Abu J Abu Jad
what's going on here Why did you give
him the money This was your opportunity
to kill him He said like this is what we
say in Lebanese like in Arabic keep away
from me Wall when he opened the door I
could see two wild male camels behind
him They're about to attack me and rip
me apart
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala he is the one
who showed that image to Abu Jahal
because Allahh protects those who stand
alongside Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala we stand along his side truly
brothers and
sisters when one sees the way the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam used to
treat the slaves and the captives again
you'll become speechless the prophet
wasallam did not leave anyone outside of
his compassion and mercy here is bil and
I am so proud to be named
an Ethiopian slave who used to exist at
the time of the prophet sallaihi
wasallam insignificant man meaning
towards the tribes and he was a slave
with when he embraced Islam in secret
found out his his lord the one who
bought him the one who had him and owned
him and he said I own your soul I own
your wealth I own everything that you
save you're not allowed to become a
Muslim he said there is only one god so
Umaya brought him in the scorching sand
and placed in the middle of the desert
and placed a stone over his chest
Brothers and sisters the sand over there
in Saudi Arabia in
Mecca the sand is more than 60° C It'll
burn your back easily It'll peel off
your skin And then with a with a a stone
so heavy so large that needs four men to
carry it was placed on his chest And
then he was whipped saying "Say our our
idols are the best." And he would
say "There's only one God There's only
one
God." Suddenly as he was almost about to
kill kill
A man by the name of Abu
Bakr Abu Bakr He arrived and he said
"The messenger has sent me." Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam I will buy
this man off you How much do you want
for him Name the price And um said to
him he said "I'll give him a bit of a
high price." He said "I want 10 golden
dinners." Everyone laughed around him
Suddenly he threw the sack in front of
him 10 golden dinners Mayor looked up
and he said "What a fool you are You
think that you've accomplished something
here I would have asked two dinars for
this worthless person He's worth nothing
You just bought a worthless person for
10 dinars." Abu Bakr said the messenger
sallallahu alaihi wasallam said "Oh Abu
Bakr himself said was being taught by
the
messenger I would have paid 100 dinars
for
him I would have paid 100." And omea was
darkened in his face and thought "Damn I
could have made another 90 golden dinars
Slaves are valuable in Islam and the
first people who followed the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam were the slaves and
servants and the weak Then the leaders
followed such as Abu
Bakr and the
rest The prophet sallallaihi wasallam
used to promise great rewards in
paradise for people who bought slaves
and set them
free or bought women slaves and set them
free and then have the choice of
marrying them or letting them
free The prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam used to say wh meaning a place
in hellfire whale to those who harm
their servants hit them bash them
And he said "Every servant must be fed
from the food that you feed your family
with Must to be given shelter and
comfort must be allowed to do these
things." So much so that one time Abu
Dar Abu Dar made a mistake one time his
servant he had a servant and he did
something wrong So Abu Dar slapped him
across the face Suddenly Abu Dar heard a
voice from behind him A voice saying to
him
do you not fear the hellfire because of
this weak person in front of you Abu Dar
looked back wanting to answer back and
the prophet sallall alaihi wasallam said
to him and he found the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam before him It was
the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam
and he said to him yeah Allah he is for
free for the sake of Allah I I've set
him free The prophet sallallaihi
wasallam said if you did not set him
free Allah would have punished you in
the fire
Subhan
Allah Which religion in the world or
ideology or or system I ask you in the
name of Allah which system in the world
has this mercy and his sensitivity to
even the slaves like that Who which
which religion Not
one Islam honored them and lifted them
until was the caller to the Adam which
we call
today The prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam was even compassionate towards
the animals and the
insects One time they were out towards a
battle Suddenly the prophet wasallam
stopped the whole army and he said there
is a bird above me fluttering Why is the
bird fluttering above youallah He said
she is crying because someone has taken
her babies from its
nest Who took them And a young man came
along and said I did The prophet sallall
alaihi wasallam said why why do you want
to hurt the feelings of this mother by
taking her
children return them
back In fact the prophet sallallaihi
wasallam used to say anyone who h who
kills a bird for no reason on the day of
judgment will come to Allah crying and
saying my lord your servant so and so
killed me and he had no reason for
killing me
Now which the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam forbid the killing of animals
and insects without a reason and he
specialized the
ants and the
bees because they are mentioned in the
Quran He also specialized the woodpecker
because it is also mentioned in the
Quran And the prophet sallallah.aii
wasallam also specialized the frog
because we have a story about the frog
When Ibraim our prophet Ibraimam was
thrown into the fire by his people The
frog what can a frog do If it comes
close to the fire it'll if its skin
dries up it's dead It has to always be
moist So from the pond it tried to hop
as close as it can to a fire that's six
stories high It would get water from the
pond and just spit it out trying to
extinguish the fire Because of that yes
brothers and sisters the frog can't do
that But this is a lesson to us Muslims
that you are to do what what is within
your ability Even if it cannot benefit
do within your ability Allah does not
tell you to do things that are beyond
your ability So here is the frog And
because it did that even though it did
nothing Allah forbid the killing of any
frog for any reason until the end of
time
If I find the frog in my bed in my
pillow in my mouth Allah I wouldn't kill
it
Now I just remembered my sister-in-law I
think she is amongst us And the reason
why I remembered is because she's so
passionate towards animals rights but
she eats a lot of uh beef and lamb as
well So I don't know where that came
from
The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
was so compassionate even to the
non-Muslim
enemies and their
children Here is an important point for
me which I would like to discuss with
you We've already heard some examples
about how the prophet sallallaihi
wasallam dealt with a non-Muslim old
lady That's by
default Well what about every other
non-Muslim enemy friend or foe Allah
says in the Quran
There is no compulsion in religion So
prophet wasallam could not compel anyone
Al Allah also
says you are only but a warner That's
all you can do Oh messenger of God Allah
also says to
him he said remind if the reminders will
benefit those who want to accept those
whose hearts are open they will accept
Allah also says in the
Quran to the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam you are not allowed to force
them or compel them
So where did people get the notion that
Muslims were commanded or Islam was
spread with the sword Wall any person
who be careful any person who says that
and you meet with a historian Muslim or
non-Muslim or somebody who is educated
in this area they will laugh at you They
will laugh at you and mock you but
unfortunately there's too many ignorant
people out there Those who read history
you will never find that Islam was
spread through the sword How could it be
It's it's it makes no sense If you can't
become a Muslim unless you really
sincerely believe it from your heart how
can I force you into Islam You're not a
Muslim In fact you become more dangerous
to me because I will think you're a
Muslim but in fact you're just a
hypocrite hiding and spying on me You
could harm me more than anyone else So
this notion is
pathetic
impossible Having said this the prophet
sallallah.aii wasallam used to have a
Jewish neighbor You know how you know
Muslims are about you know culturally we
hate Jews and we mock Jews and things
like that Well this is wrong from these
are comes from only ignorant people
Christians or Muslims or whoever they
are Prophet wasallam did not generalize
and he treated every individual alone He
had a Jewish neighbor and the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam used to experience
some harm from him So he used to place
his rubbish in front of the prophetam's
house very frequently and the prophet
peace be upon him used to clean it up
One day or a few days passed one time
there was no rubbish in front of the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam's house So
the prophet peace be upon him understood
that something's wrong with his neighbor
and jabam had told him to be dutiful to
the neighbor to the point where the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam thought
that jabir is about to tell him and when
you die your neighbor has to take
everything you have The prophet sallall
alaihi wasallam went and visited the
Jewish man and he found him sick The
Jewish man asked how did you know I was
harmed How did you know I was sick The
prophet sallallaihi wasallam said to him
"Well the only way I knew is because of
your
rubbish." That Jewish neighbor became a
Muslim And he be witness that he is the
messenger of God Our
character the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam when he went into a battle like
fighting when he was forced into
fighting he had to fight after 14 years
of persecution
They forced him to fight them in a
battle because if he didn't fight them
back they were going to kill him and the
people with him And I would like to make
a little term understandable here A lot
of pe people think when they read verses
in the Quran about fighting and battles
and war they think they read it wrong
When Allah says for
example fight them they interpret it as
saying kill them massacre them attack
them Means to fight back When someone
fights you you engage in fighting back
This is
called mutual fighting When someone
because Allah says do not attack Allah
does not like the people who attack But
meaning if they start you then fight
them back Don't sit there and let them
massacre you because then Islam will be
stopped from spiriting and the weak
people will be oppressed by these
villains these terrorists
Now so the prophet when he went out to a
battle he used to stop his companions
and give them a valuable lesson And the
battle was never ever practiced No wars
were practiced for 14 years Does anyone
know why I would like to ask that
question from anybody here in the
audience Does anyone know why The major
reason why 14
years battle was not commanded
That's number one Allah did not allow it
But I'm asking the reason why Allah did
not allow it yet Does anyone sorry
Okay that's number one to implemented
but still they had from the word go
There was something a little bit more
than that within that comes
withhed I'll give you a
clue Wars have conditions in Islam don't
they
And when you're in a battle and people
are charging and you see your brother
and your sister your brother and your
sister and your father and your uncle
bleeding to death would you be in the
right state of mind Would you be able to
respect the conditions of war
No So now does anyone still know why
Increase the number of people Sorry The
companion so that they are not all
relatives They're not all brothers
Good try brother But I don't think
that's the answer Inshallah
That's it To fight only for the sake of
Allah In other words to instill the
etiquets of manners and patience in
their hearts Because when you're out in
battle you have to respect the
conditions of
fighting One companion he was out
fighting The man he was about to kill
another man And then the man struck him
with his sword that hurt him And I think
that was Im So then the companion lifted
his sword up and this time he wanted to
kill him with more aggression Suddenly
he stopped and walked away He left him
and he went away The companions asked
him "Why did you leave him?" He said
"Because before I was fighting in the
cause of Allah and Allah only commands
us in justice But when he hit me and
hurt me I wanted to kill him out of
revenge."
But the prophet sallallaihi wasallam
taught us for 14 years with practice so
we may have manners of
war Which religion which which society
has that as well So he used to say to
them behold we have been sent a people
to take the people from the worship of
created things to the worship of the
creator of all things and to save the
people from injustice into the openness
and mercy of Islam and to bring justice
to the earth Do not kill an old man of
your amongst your enemies if he is not
fighting you Do not kill a woman who is
not fighting you Wah even if she is in
the ranks of the enemies Do not kill a
child Do not cut off the branches of
trees Do not kill an animal and do not
ruin soil and do not be excessive in
killing Do not mutilate the
bodies and look after the affairs and
the conditions of war And if you hold
captives out of this war then feed them
from what you feed from your f your
family and treat them well as you would
treat a guest For they are your captives
and you have power over them And Allah
does not like people who have oppression
over the weak ones when they have power
over
them They caught captives from the wars
non-Muslims Wall not one captive was
tortured in Islam in those days and in
the later years to come And one
particular forgotten his name prophetam
brought him and tied him to the pillar
of the mosque of the masjid
mjinai And that's what he used to do
with the captives Tie them up give them
food All the Muslims come past smile to
him treat him well ask him if he needs
anything If he wants to bathe he can
bathe even wall They give him
clothes just so that he can look and see
how the Muslims live their life Allah
says in the Quran and if a enemy
non-believer comes to you to seek refuge
meaning says listen you know I've come
to you without any harm Allah says then
grant him security until he hears the
words of Allah that's all we want to do
we just want you to hear the words of
Allah and then you can go your own way
so he tied him up and they let him hear
the words of Allah and he would reject
day by day reject on the third day the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam said to
them let him free and let him go back to
his land so the man went free and he
left They gave him a horse and he left A
few kilometers down the man came back He
got off his horse and he said to him "I
bear witness that that there is only one
God and you are his messenger." The
prophet sallallaihi wasallam asked him
"Why didn't you embrace beforehand?" He
said "Do you know what he said?" He said
"So that people will not think that I
embraced Islam out of force because you
held me captive I wanted to embrace
Islam to show the world that Islam is
just and I became a Muslim out of my own
will
Now prophet sallallaihi wasallam was
merciful at the day when he came back to
Mecca The ped people who initiated the
violence towards them and persecuted and
threw them out of their homes and exiled
them The prophet sallallaihi wasallam
came back with a huge army and the Mecca
people started looking at themselves and
saying what is Muhammad going to do with
us sallallahu alaihi wasallam Some of
them would say he is going to kill our
men and take our women He is going to
capture our children He is going to take
our homes and torture us What's he going
to do with us Prophet sallallaihi
wasallam entered and he said to all of
his people his companions all of you
lower your swords And then he called out
he gathered them and he said to
them "What do you think that I'm going
to do with
you?" Amongst them was Hind the one who
killed the prophetam's uncle
Hamz when she killed him the prophet she
opened his chest up and cut off his ears
and his eyes and his ear and and and
tried to eat his liver The prophet
sallallaihi wasallam when he saw him he
held tightly onto his back teeth and and
he got
tearary and when she became a Muslim
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
didn't even look at her or the other
man but he didn't even hug he said what
do you think I'm going to do with you
they said we are at your mercy the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam
said go for you are free
people and whoever enters their home
they are
Whoever enters the house of Abu
Sufyan because he had a leadership there
He liked being a leader Then he is
safe That day he won over all of the
Meccans All of them And today we see how
much Islam there is over there The
prophet wasallam was merciful towards
the sinners and the ignorant Not like us
As soon as a person says uh something
wrong in Islam we call him
aid we call him
names an apostate a rejector of faith
Kill him he ought to be
killed Islam says "And I bring you all
the mashallah." But what they lack is
understanding what the
mean We got a lot of scholars here these
days Not
here all over the world Unfortunately
the prophet sallall alaihi wasallam used
to treat the sinners and the ignorant
people with too much kindness because he
understood when a person doesn't know
that they ought to be
taught A person a major sinner came to
the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
saying I committed a major major
sin What should I do The prophet
wasallam said to him do you have a
mother He said my mother is dead Do you
have a father He said my father is dead
He said to him do you have an auntie
meaning the mother's
sister that's who comes after the mother
he said yes he said go and be beautiful
and kind to her and Allah will forgive
your major sin look how much mercy the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam has he
didn't tell him you ought to be stoned
no or that woman who came to prophet
wasallam and said yeah I am pregnant
from zena stone
me subhan allah he turned away from her
the first time maybe she's drunk maybe
she's ignorant giving her a chance to go
away and repent to Allah another way So
she returned back to him Allah I'm a
pregnant woman from Z Purify me Stone me
to death The prophet sallallaihi
wasallam turned again away from her
trying to ignore her the third time And
then a fourth time when she be witness
four times against herself and insisted
he said to her go back until you give
birth to the baby that's in your stomach
What has he done Why should he die with
you So she returned and in the hope
prophet is hoping that she will not
return and ask Allah to pardon and
forgive her because Allah is merciful
and to hide it Nine months later she
returned and she said to him here's my
child now purify me The prophet
sallallaihi wasallam looked and said go
back until the child has been until the
child no longer needs your breast milk
He needs your breast
milk So she left and after 2 years
talking about 2 years and 9 months she
returned back to the prophet sallallahu
alaihi wasallam When prophet wasallam
saw that she was insistive on it and she
wanted the forgiveness of Allahhala they
took her and she was stoned and then the
people they thought like they they felt
like she's a bad woman When the prophet
sallall alaihi wasallam saw this
attitude he stood up before everybody
and made a legacy for her which lasts
till today until the last hour He said
wall this woman has repented such a
repentance that if all the people of
Medina were to commit the same zena and
you were to place on the scale her
repentance would have overcome them all
Not one of them will equal her
The prophet sallallaihi wasallam was
merciful to all the what about the
better man who entered the masjid one
time when the prophet wasallam was
sitting the companions were around him
he felt like going to the toilet to the
bed when a rude man and doesn't
understand went to one of the corners of
the masjid started to urinate just went
to the corner and began urinating in the
middle of the in the masjid well the
companions who were still not ready for
that they took out their
swords the prophet sallall alaihi
wasallam
said no no no let him
finish Allah he said let him finish
sallallahu alaihi wasallam When the man
finished he said bring some water and
clean it up and he called the man aside
and he addressed him with such a kind
manner that this bad has never heard it
from even his mother ever How
compassionate is the mother He never
even heard it from his mother Finally
the prophet sallallam said to him and I
can't describe the way he said it He
said it is normal for a human being to
need to urinate but this place has not
been set for such an
act The bad one looked up to him and
cried Ban doesn't cry hardly cries and
said to
him I sacrifice everything I have for
you before my mother and father and
messenger of
God Subhan
Allah Once questioned the prophet
wasallam She said to him "Yeahool Allah
does Allah know all the secrets?" Even
no matter even if we we spoke in secret
she actually didn't believe that Allah
knows all the
secrets This is a true hadith And the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam didn't say
"You're an apostate How dare you say
that Allah knows all the secrets."
No he said to her "Yes he's educating
her." The prophet sallallaihi wasallam
was so kind to the children I'm sorry if
I'm taking a bit of time but I like to
shorten the question answer time because
I don't really like them too much Sorry
to say that I'd like to talk more about
this a little bit more Inshallah The
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam he
was so kind to the children to his wives
and to the women in
general First I begin with the
children Maybe you haven't heard this
particular incident before Wallah he
really pleases
me A young boy only about probably 11 or
12 years old at the time of the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam he used to have a
pet
bird What did he
have A pet
bird and used to love this bird and he
called it a name I think I'm not sure I
forgot the name If someone can correct
me I think its name was
what was it
[Applause]
The bird's name
was prophetam knew how the boy liked and
prophet wasallam used to you know share
his his joy with him One day died the
bird died and the boy was very sad The
prophet sallallaihi wasallam pack put
his clothes on got up and headed towards
the young boy Where are you going out He
said "I am going to to pass my
condolences on to the boy and make him
feel comfortable and happy because he
lost a beloved of
his." I just remembered my culture the
you know Lebanese culture If a boy was
crying for his bird they say "Get out of
me and it's just a bird Kick it aside
Put in rubbish Burn
it You suck." That's what they would say
Okay we have to wrap it up inshallah But
I really would like to say this last
thing because of
Mahib Can I say this last thing
brother The prophet sallallah.aii
wasallam One of the first things that he
did and this is a message out to the
people who
say that Muslims mistreat their
women and look at the women and females
as a lower class than the
men I am talking about John
Howard Mashallah he went to the extent
of writing a book that
Muslim I have to agree with him with one
little tiny bit and I'm not trying to be
save myself from anything here
Some Muslims not because of their
Islamic nature It is because of their
cultural nature Wherever they're from
wherever you're from cultural nature My
Arabic nature for example Yes Some of
them are very very wicked to their wives
and very wicked to their daughters and
they mistreat the daughters and they
favor the boy and they wish that the
daughters were dead Now this is true So
in a way I don't blame John Howard but I
wish that he would have just
asked for crying out you're the prime
minister of the country you can enter
any masjid you want no one will kill you
don't worry just
ask Muslims are not known to do these
things so one of the first things the
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
did was that he abolished the favorism
of boys above girls
The Arabs in those days they used to
bury their daughters alive They used to
practice female
infanticide It's a criminal act of
killing your baby
daughter And don't think that this act
is not practiced today in some countries
I do not want to mention which countries
as to not offend some people of that
country who are who may be sitting
here But this is actually practiced The
killing of young
females whether they are in the fetus or
whether they
are one year old or two years old they
kill them They kill
them because they have a culture and the
culture
is that the boy carries on the name of
the family and when a when a when a
woman gets married she has to be a part
of the husband's family Whereas in Islam
the woman must keep her father's surname
Did you know that When she gets married
like I'm
Assad My wife
is she still maintains her surname her
father's name Allah says in the
Quran call them by their father's names
This is most just in the eyes of God
Which religion has that Which Come on
Which system has that Not one to make
her independent of her own
name The first thing he abolished was
the burying of them alive I will tell
you this story A man that existed
amongst the companions who used to like
could see him talking normal and smiling
or laughing and then suddenly at
occasions he would start to cry and cry
so much until he went
unconscious The companions told the
prophetam about this man to try and read
on him for healing So the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam called this man and
wanted to help him and took him aside
and he said what what what happens to
you my brother The man said to him
"Yahool Allah I was never going to tell
anyone this but now that you've asked me
I must tell you Before I embraced
Islam I used to have a
daughter When she was born I wanted to
bury
her because the
cultural ideology came into my
mind And I started to think that when
she grows older she will bring shame to
my family."
But I stopped myself My heart for my
daughter was overpowering
me Years and years went by as I watched
her
grow And then one day when she reached
close to a blossoming age she was about
to become a
lady He said "I began to have
nightmares and
desperation and distress
The pain of my culturalism came into me
thinking of the shame that my daughter
is going to bring with me if she walked
off with another fellow and brought
shame to my all my
ancestors Day by day I wanted to do
something but then my heart my love
stopped me until one day he said I could
not handle it anymore
yet I said to her
mother dress her up with a with neat
clothes and comb her hair nicely and
decorate her face and tell her your
father today is taking you out to a
party a celebration so that she can play
with the other friends of
hers The mother knew that the father was
up to a plot and a plan So she dressed
her daughter up She combed her hair
while she was crying The mother was
crying and she pouted her face and made
her nice While the mother was crying the
daughter's asking "What's wrong mother?"
And the mother would say "Nothing
daughter She's not allowed otherwise the
husband will beat her or probably even
kill her." The daughter said "Daddy's
taking me out for a celebration I love
my
dad." After c after decorating her the
father came along in the evening and he
took his daughter The wife grabbed the
prophet grabbed her husband's hand and
said to him and whispered to him but his
daughter could hear and she said some
words that made his heart shiver and the
word and the daughter to
remember Oh man do not lose the trust
Your daughter is your
trust The man took his daughter away And
on his way he's thinking to himself what
am I going to do and a daughter is
playing around her father thinking that
her father loves her He said "I
approached a very deep well which was
steep and deep and it had rocks sharp
rocks at the bottom." He said "Suddenly
the pains and agonism my culturism came
and burnt me and I began to think should
I throw her Should I not throw her?" So
I would come close Then my heart would
not let me Suddenly the culturalism
would come in He said "I wrestled and
wrestled Suddenly when I came close to
the well I grabbed my daughter and I
threw her into the well And my daughter
held with her open horrific eyes looking
at me and saying to me
"Daddy oh dad don't lose the trust Don't
lose the trust daddy." And the prophet
and the man then threw her into the well
He said she kept falling
saying until her tiny voice went away I
couldn't hear her anymore She died The
prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam
looked up at him and his beard was
soaked with tears Sallallahu alaihi
wasallam
And the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wasallam's beard was soaked with tears
And he said to
him if Allahh was to
allow me to punish anyone for the
killing and murder of anyone before
Islam I would have started with you I
would have started with you Prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam was the most
compassionate even to the women And he
used to say to
them take care of your precious pearls
your daughters and your wives
Have kindness towards your wives and be
patient with them Be patient with them
for they make a lot of mistakes and you
are not
infallible The prophet wasallam said if
you see a bad habit of hers then
remember the good things that she does
and overcome that with that and forgive
her for her illcomings He also used to
help his wives clean and sew and
sometimes even cook and look after the
children when they were tired except
when prayer came said it's as if the
prophet sallallaihi wasallam didn't know
us He had to remember his lord The
prophet sallallaihi wasallam used to his
first love
was and he never got married to another
woman
until died But in her time he loved her
the most and after her he loved her the
most until one time saw the prophet
wasallam sitting with an old woman old
woman probably in her 70s and he was
talking and laughing like enjoying some
stories just stories and Aisha got
jealous subhan Allah she was very young
got jealous of this old woman so she
came to the prophetam and said to
him you know woman who's that old woman
you know old and she's young that's what
she's trying to say the prophet
sallallaihi wasallam laughed and he said
so she was one
of she was one of the friends of which
brought even heavier a burden on what he
still remembers is his wife and she's
dead He said she said to him a friend of
khadas said but didn't Allahha give you
someone better she means
herself the prophetam put a straight
face on immediately and he said to
her by Allah Allah did
not
replace with anyone better than her
which means
you for she is the
who gave victory to me when everyone
else left me She is the one who believed
me when everyone else said I'm a liar
She is the one who clothed me and put
the blanket on top of me when I was
shivering and thinking that I have
been hypnotized by some devil And she
said to me "You are a truthful man and
honest man who gives the poor and looks
after the needy Allah will not never let
you down." So she supported me when
everyone else left me And to top the
cake he said "And Allah gave me from her
daughters and
sons." Couldn't have any
children Understood her mistake and said
"Yahool Allah forgive me and ask Allah
to forgive
me." My brothers and sisters in Islam I
have run out of time If you give me time
in the questions and answers I can
answer why we love the messenger
sallallahu alaihi wasallam the most As
for now I will leave you inshallah with
that Come back inshallah to hear the the
the answer to that question
