00:00:01.360 --> 00:00:04.360
Pause.

00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:12.140
Get to know the Companions, the scholars, and the prominent figures.

00:00:12.140 --> 00:00:16.140
A new challenge: Who am I?

00:00:16.140 --> 00:00:22.609
I am one of the Companions of the Prophet, peace be upon him.

00:00:22.609 --> 00:00:25.609
I was among the first to embrace Islam in Makkah.

00:00:25.609 --> 00:00:27.699
I migrated to Abyssinia.

00:00:27.699 --> 00:00:29.699
Then I returned to Makkah.

00:00:29.699 --> 00:00:31.699
I was confined there.

00:00:31.699 --> 00:00:34.700
I was unable to migrate to Madinah.

00:00:34.700 --> 00:00:38.700
Until the Prophet, peace be upon him, migrated there.

00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:40.770
I remained in Makkah.

00:00:40.770 --> 00:00:43.770
Until the Prophet, peace be upon him, sent out.

00:00:43.770 --> 00:00:45.770
A military detachment of Muslims.

00:00:45.770 --> 00:00:49.770
Led by 'Ubaydah Ibn al-Harith, may Allah be pleased with him.

00:00:49.770 --> 00:00:51.770
They encountered a group from Quraysh.

00:00:51.770 --> 00:00:54.770
Led by 'Ikrimah Ibn Abi Jahl.

00:00:54.770 --> 00:00:57.770
I had set out with the polytheists.

00:00:57.770 --> 00:01:01.770
When the two parties met and no fighting occurred.

00:01:01.770 --> 00:01:03.770
I separated from the polytheists.

00:01:03.770 --> 00:01:06.769
And joined the Muslim detachment.

00:01:06.769 --> 00:01:12.659
I witnessed all the battles with the Prophet, peace be upon him.

00:01:12.659 --> 00:01:17.659
I was the first to gallop my horse in the cause of Allah.

00:01:17.659 --> 00:01:20.659
I was quick to respond to the call for jihad.

00:01:20.659 --> 00:01:23.659
I was a brave man, equal to a thousand knights.

00:01:23.659 --> 00:01:27.010
During the Battle of Badr.

00:01:27.010 --> 00:01:30.010
I went out with my horse alongside the Muslims.

00:01:30.010 --> 00:01:33.010
When the caravan escaped us.

00:01:33.010 --> 00:01:35.010
And the battle became imminent.

00:01:35.010 --> 00:01:39.010
The Prophet, peace be upon him, consulted his Companions.

00:01:39.010 --> 00:01:43.010
He said, "Advise me, O people."

00:01:43.010 --> 00:01:46.010
Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, stood up.

00:01:46.010 --> 00:01:48.010
He spoke and spoke well.

00:01:48.010 --> 00:01:51.010
Then 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, stood up.

00:01:51.010 --> 00:01:53.010
And said the same.

00:01:53.010 --> 00:01:55.010
Then I stood up and said.

00:01:55.010 --> 00:01:57.010
"O Messenger of Allah.

00:01:57.010 --> 00:01:59.010
Lead us wherever Allah commands.

00:01:59.010 --> 00:02:01.010
We are with you.

00:02:01.010 --> 00:02:03.010
By Allah, we will not say to you.

00:02:03.010 --> 00:02:06.010
What the Children of Israel said to Musa.

00:02:06.010 --> 00:02:09.009
“They said: O Moses! We will never enter (the land) while they are in it. So go thou and thy Lord and fight! We will sit here.” (5:24)

00:02:09.009 --> 00:02:12.009
'Go, you and your Lord, and fight; we are sitting right here.'

00:02:12.009 --> 00:02:13.009
But rather.

00:02:13.009 --> 00:02:16.009
“They said: O Moses! We will never enter (the land) while they are in it. So go thou and thy Lord and fight! We will sit here.” (5:24)

00:02:16.009 --> 00:02:19.009
We are fighting alongside you both.

00:02:19.009 --> 00:02:21.009
By the One who sent you with the truth.

00:02:21.009 --> 00:02:24.009
If you were to lead us to Bark al-Ghimad.

00:02:24.009 --> 00:02:27.009
We would fight alongside you to reach it.

00:02:27.009 --> 00:02:29.009
Until you attain it."

00:02:29.009 --> 00:02:31.009
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to me.

00:02:31.009 --> 00:02:33.009
[peace be upon him].

00:02:33.009 --> 00:02:36.650
Good words, and he prayed for me.

00:02:36.650 --> 00:02:39.650
Long after the death of the Prophet, peace be upon him.

00:02:39.650 --> 00:02:40.650
A while later.

00:02:40.650 --> 00:02:42.650
A man passed by me.

00:02:42.650 --> 00:02:43.650
And said.

00:02:43.650 --> 00:02:45.650
"Blessed are these two eyes.

00:02:45.650 --> 00:02:48.650
That saw the Messenger of Allah.

00:02:48.650 --> 00:02:50.650
peace be upon him.

00:02:50.650 --> 00:02:52.650
By Allah, we wish.

00:02:52.650 --> 00:02:54.650
That we had seen what you saw."

00:02:54.650 --> 00:02:56.650
I listened to what he said.

00:02:56.650 --> 00:02:58.650
And I began to wonder.

00:02:58.650 --> 00:03:00.650
Then I turned to him.

00:03:00.650 --> 00:03:01.650
And said.

00:03:01.650 --> 00:03:03.650
"What makes one of you.

00:03:03.650 --> 00:03:05.650
Wish for a scene.

00:03:05.650 --> 00:03:07.650
That Allah kept hidden from him?

00:03:07.650 --> 00:03:09.650
He does not know if he had witnessed it.

00:03:09.650 --> 00:03:11.650
How he would have fared in it.

00:03:11.650 --> 00:03:13.840
By Allah, there were present.

00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:15.840
With the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him.

00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:18.840
People whom Allah will cast.

00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:21.840
On their faces into Hell.

00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.939
They did not respond to him nor did they believe him.

00:03:24.939 --> 00:03:26.939
Should you not praise Allah.

00:03:26.939 --> 00:03:29.939
That He brought you out of your mothers' wombs.

00:03:29.939 --> 00:03:32.939
Knowing nothing but your Lord.

00:03:32.939 --> 00:03:35.939
Believing in what your Prophet brought.

00:03:35.939 --> 00:03:38.939
And you have been spared the trials that others faced."

00:03:38.939 --> 00:03:42.830
I had a large belly.

00:03:42.830 --> 00:03:44.830
And I had a Roman slave.

00:03:44.830 --> 00:03:46.830
He said to me.

00:03:46.830 --> 00:03:48.830
"Let me cut open your belly.

00:03:48.830 --> 00:03:51.830
To remove some of the fat so that you may become slender.

00:03:51.830 --> 00:03:53.830
And your body may become light.

00:03:53.830 --> 00:03:55.860
For I am an expert in that."

00:03:55.860 --> 00:03:57.860
So he cut open my belly.

00:03:57.860 --> 00:03:59.860
And removed some fat and tissue.

00:03:59.860 --> 00:04:01.860
Then he stitched it up.

00:04:01.860 --> 00:04:03.860
But the wound became inflamed.

00:04:03.860 --> 00:04:05.860
And the slave fled.

00:04:05.860 --> 00:04:08.060
And I died because of that.

00:04:08.060 --> 00:04:14.280
So, who am I?

00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:18.540
Share your answers with us in the comments below the video.

00:04:18.540 --> 00:04:22.540
We will pin the correct answer in the comments.

00:04:22.540 --> 00:04:25.540
When the next episode is released.

00:04:25.540 --> 00:04:27.540
If Allah wills.
