Abyssinian slave. The color of the skin is pitch black.
But the outward appearance of man is not the real look. The inside is real. Only a beautiful person whose heart is clear inside.
What if Bilal is black!
His heart was as clear as the moon. Beautiful as Jochna. Bright as the sun. And in his chest was the courage of lightning.
That courage was as vast as the sea. Immovable like a mountain.
The fact that there can be so much form, so much beauty in a black man cannot be understood without seeing Bilal. Bilal is the real secret of this beauty - his faith.
His deep faith and good faith were in the mercy of God. On Allah, on the Prophet (s).
All his confidence was in the mercy of God. On the power of God.
And he loved the Prophet (s) with all his heart. He had no love for her. There was not so much artificiality. So Bilal responded to the call of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) without fearing the bloodshot eyes of his master.
By accepting Islam, he gained absolute contentment and peace.
What will happen if you buy a slave?
The boss can only buy a man with money. He can no longer buy people's hearts.
Bilal's mind could not buy his master. That is why he was independent mentally. And since he was independent, he has given his only heart into the hands of God. In the service of Islam. In love with the Prophet (s).
Not quietly. Absolutely in front of everyone. He publicly announced his conversion to Islam.
He said, "There is no lord but Allah." Islam is the only provision of life. And the Prophet (peace be upon him) is a great man sent by God. Who has come among us with the light of truth. He has come with the message of truth. For the liberation of man.
Abyssinian slave Bilal!
His master heard the strong voice of the black man. The disbelievers also heard. They erupted in rage. Said
Bought slaves - black people have so much courage! The consequences are terrible.
Bilal didn't seem to hear them. Because he knows that the strong always oppress the weak. Persecutes and tortures. What's new again?
The disbelievers said, "Come back from the path of Muhammad." Otherwise you have a lot of misery in your forehead. There is a lot of trouble.
Bilal laughed.
A storm of laughter fell from inside the black man. Said, scaring me? Do you know that the heart that loves only Allah and His Prophet (peace be upon him) is not afraid of anyone else in the world! Don't care! What are you afraid of me? What can you do to me? Kill? You can kill. But you can no longer take away my faith! No, never.
The disbelievers were furious when they heard about this adventure in the face of the slave. Their heretical hearts burned. They started brutally torturing him.
The tyrant Abu Jahl. A huge caravan. Huge his team. Bilal was subjected to constant torture and cruelty by the order of Abu Jahlal.
The disbelievers beat him mercilessly on the sands of the hot desert like Aber Agun.
He was laid on a rock and on a burning fire.
2nd episode
The infidels tied ropes around his neck and handed him over to ignorant children.
Children do not understand. They used to drag Bilal around like a goat in the alleys of Mecca. Bilal's body would have been torn. Fresh blood was dripping from his body.
And Abu Jahl?
He punished Bilal with his own hands. He was laid on his back. Then he would put a big stone mill on Bilal's back.
When fire came out of the sun's eyes in the desert, Abu Jahl used to treat Bilal in this way, which was worse than an animal.
Bilal's chest would burn in the hot sand. He would push the heavy stone on the back and go into the sand. Thirsty chest and throat would dry up. He was fidgeting with thirst and pain.
Abu Bilal used to laugh like a hyena when he saw Bilal's suffering. Used to say
There is still time, Bilal, to return to Muhammad (pbuh) from Allah. You will be released. No more oppression on you.
But how can a person who has accepted his true religion out of love for Allah, be defeated by the fear of human persecution?
Adventurous Bilal!
Whose faith is like a mountain. He did not move a hair from his faith. On the contrary, in the midst of all the oppression of Abu Jahl, he replied with a smile,
God is Ahad. Allahu Ahad.
In response to Bilal, the sinful Abu Jahl would have been even more angry. And with that, the level of his oppression would increase.
Sometimes Bilal was stuffed in raw cow skin, and sometimes he was put in an iron armor and kept in the desert - when the sun was shining like hell. When he died, he was called by the sinner Abu Jahl,
Come back Bilal yet. Come back from the path of Allah and Muhammad (pbuh). We'll let you go.
Bilal as immovable as a mountain.
He did not return from his faith even after hundreds of persecutions. Even then, standing on that tired, dying face, Bilal smiled and said,
Allahu Ahad. Allahu Ahad.
The torture inflicted on Bilal for converting to Islam was so tragic that he jumped at the chance to utter the words of torture.
But the more the oppression of the disbelievers increased, the more Bilal's endurance increased. His patience would have increased. At the same time, Bilal's love and affection for Allah and His Prophet (SAW) would have increased.
People can accept all sacrifices only for love and affection.
Bilal was the burning proof of this character. He was a brilliant lover of truth.
He accepted all the sacrifices out of love for Allah and His Messenger (saw) with a smile.
Bilal's sole purpose was to gain the pleasure of Allah, to establish his religion and to gain the companionship and love of the Prophet (s).
One day Hazrat Abu Bakr saw with his own eyes the painful scene of unspeakable torture on Bilal. He was shocked to see. Hazrat Abu Bakr freed Ghulam Bilal in exchange for a lot of money.
Bilal loved Nabi very much. The Prophet (peace be upon him) loved him very much.
What if it is black?
The bright sun that was in Bilal's heart was very bright. He used to come out through the black skin of Bilal. Just as the sun blows through the clouds and spreads over the earth.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) liked Bilal very much. He said, give Bilal Azan. We will pray.
Bilal gave the Azan on the instructions of the Prophet (s).
Bilal is the first Azandata. That is the first muezzin.
Bilal's loud voice would be heard all around. Rob would fall all around. No Muslim could sit at home after hearing his call to prayer. Men, women, young, old and even children used to leave the house after hearing Bilal's call.
Hazrat Bilal!
One time Abyssinian slave!
That black man was very humble for the truth. And there was a firm mountain against injustice and falsehood.
Bilal: Not just the name of a black man. Rather, it is the name of an impenetrable black mountain illuminated by the light of truth and faith.
Hazrat Bilal!
The mountain of truth, faith and courage would only fall from that mountain.
