Rasool is the light of my light. 1st part
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
He was born in Mecca, a desert country in Arabia.
The time was April 20, 570 AD, 12th Rabiul Awal.
Regarding the arrival of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), Allaah says in the Holy Qur'aan,
It is further stated in Surah Al-Azhab:
‘O Prophet! We have sent you as a witness, a bearer of glad tidings and a warner, and a caller to Allah and a shining example. '
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was truly a beacon.
His light shone all around. Then all around is so bright, bright.
The name of the family of Muhammad (peace be upon him) is Quraish. The name of the tribe is Bani Hashim. Family Muttalib. Father's name is Abdullah. Amma's name is Amina. Grandfather's name is Abdul Muttalib. And grandfather's name - Wahab.
Abdul Muttalib's family was very noble and noble among the Quraish. He had a lot of reputation.
Nabiji's uncles were Haris, Abul Uzza (Abu Lahab), Abu Talib, Dirar, Abba respectively. Mukaobim, Jhabhal, Hamza and Jubayer.
And his uncles were ‘Atiqah, Waima, Arwa, Barra, Umm Hakim and Safiyyah.
Muhammad's Prophet (peace be upon him) had two stepmothers, Kaniz Chaobia and Halima Chadia.
The childhood of the Prophet of Mercy was completely different.
Father died before he was born. He was brought up by his stepmother Haliya till the age of five. The next six months to Ammar. My mother died at the age of six. He was brought up by his grandfather for the next two years.
My grandfather died when I was eight years old.
After the death of his grandfather, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was brought up by his uncle Abu Talib.
At the age of twelve, the Prophet (peace be upon him) went to Syria with his uncle Abu Talib.
At the tender age of seventeen, the adventurous young Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) formed the first organization, Hilful Fuzul, for the liberation of oppressed humanity through the joint efforts of a few young men.
There were five oaths of ‘Hilful Fuzul’ organization. Such as:
1. I will serve the poor, helpless, victims.
2. I will resist the oppressor wholeheartedly.
3. I will help the oppressed.
4. I will maintain peace and order in the country.
5. I will try to establish harmony among different tribes.
In fact, these five vows are equally important to all of us today.
Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to meditate in the cave of Hera in the mountain of light at that young age. One day while meditating in this cave of Hera, Allah revealed:
‘Ikra bismi rabbikallaji khalak.’
‘Read in the name of your Lord Who created you. '
As soon as he heard the verse, the Prophet of Mercy was overwhelmed. He came home and lay down with a blanket. Even then he is equally wealthy.
Just then it was revealed:
‘O man covered with a blanket!
Arise, warn the people, and proclaim the greatness of your Lord. '
Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) climbed Mount Shafa and called out to the people of Makkah,
‘Ya sabaha.
The people of Makkah came running when they heard the signal of the Prophet (peace be upon him).
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to them:
“O passengers of the path of destruction! Be careful. There is still time, there is still a way. Worship the One God. Make the heart beautiful. Then you will prosper in this world and in the Hereafter.
Only eight people believed in the first call of the Prophet (peace be upon him). They are: Khatijatul Kubra, wife of the first female Prophet (SAW), Ali (RA), the first teenager, Zayd (RA), Abu Bakr Siddiq (RA), Umm Ayman, Amar bin Ambacha (RA), Belal (RA). Khalid bin Sa'd.
Hazrat Khadijatul Kubra was the first man and woman to convert to Islam.
Then one by one some more women converted to Islam. Such as Abbas's wife Ummul Fazal (ra), Anis's daughter Asma (ra), Abu Bakr's daughter Asma (ra) and Umar's sister Fatima (ra).
Just as Khadija (ra) was the first convert to Islam, so was Hazrat Sumaiya (ra) the first martyr among women. He is also immortalized in the pages of history as the second martyr of Islam.
Hazrat Fatima's brother Umar converted to Islam through his tireless and fearless efforts. This daring Umar (ra) was our second caliph after the death of the Prophet (sa).
The time came for the migration to Abyssinia. This is the first Hijra. Several women were with the first group of the first Hijrah. They are Rokaiya (ra), Salma bint Suhahil (ra), Umm Salma bint Abi Umayya (ra), Layla bint Abi Hashmah (ra).
Responding to the call of the Prophet (peace be upon him), the thoughtful truth-loving people of that time, the deprived and humiliated people, and a number of humiliated women took refuge in the shadow of Islam.
The louder the voice of the Prophet (peace be upon him) became louder, the louder the call to Islam - the more the oppression of the sinners on the brave people of truth increased.
The infidels and polytheists started all kinds of conspiracies and attacks to silence the loud voice of Islam.
From the very beginning of their torture and oppression, they were martyred one by one - Haris Ibn Abihala (RA), Sumaiya (RA), Yasir (RA) and Khobayeb (RA). And Ammar (ra), Khabbab (ra), Jubayer (ra), Bilal (ra), Sohaib (ra), Abu Fakiha (ra), Lubaina (ra), Junaiya (ra) and Nahdia (ra) were tortured to the extreme. .
