In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Mawaddah Association is pleased
To present to you pictures from the lives of the Companions
By Abd al-Rahman Rafat al-Basha
May God have mercy on him
Al-Miqdad bin Omar, may God be pleased with him
Omar bin Tha'labah caused bloodshed among his people
It was necessary for him to leave his tribe's native Bhara
Or expose himself to revenge
He preferred the first over the second
He fled to Hadramawt
He took a position for himself there
Then he soon married a man from Hadhramout
He received a boy whom he called Al-Miqdad
Al-Miqdad inherited most of his moral and moral qualities from his father
It was very long
Very tan
It is even correct for him to be called black
A particle that fills the eyes of its beholder with awe and magnificence
He was also very stubborn and strong-willed
Full on diet and horrific loneliness
And one day
Al-Miqdad bin Omar had a dispute with one of the leaders of the people in Hadhramout
He is Abu Shimr bin Hajar
Sheikh Al-Hadrami uttered a harsh word
She wounded the boy's pride and angered him
So Houssam became angry and fell in love with Sheikh Al-Hadrami
He amputated his leg
Then Al-Miqdad found that he had to evacuate Hadhramout
Just as his father fled before him from the homes of his tribe in Hira
He turned his face towards Mecca
Al-Miqdad bin Omar recognized the moment he set foot in Mecca
No one can live in this Qurayshi society in safety and security
Unless he has a tribe to protect him or a clan that prevents him
As for strangers like him, they only have to choose between two
Either they ally themselves with one of the people's masters
They will live under his protection and be safe in Hama
As for exposing themselves to humiliation and humiliation
He made an alliance with one of the leaders of Quraish
He is Al-Aswad bin Abd Yaghuth Al-Zuhri
But Al-Aswad bin Abd Yaghouth
He soon saw in the Hadrami boy the traits of manhood and the virtues of chivalry
And the qualities of courage and rescue
What filled his heart with love for him
So he took it from his hand and took it to the Quraysh gatherings near the Kaaba
When he stood over them, he announced his adoption and said
Bear witness, O people of Quraysh
This is my son, I inherit from him and he inherits from me
From that day on, people called him Al-Miqdad bin Al-Aswad
Although Islam later abolished adoption
Most people kept calling him that
Because this name is often mentioned on their tongues
And much of what they exchanged between them
He was not Al-Miqdad bin Omar or Al-Miqdad bin Al-Aswad as they called him
Comfortable with that ignorant society
Where blood is shed unjustly and unfairly
The sanctities are violated through aggression and injustice
The strong humiliates the weak
It is dominated by blind fanaticism
Even though one of the leaders of Quraish had adopted him
In the eyes of the people, he is still a vagrant
He cannot fuse to any of them
Because according to their custom, none of their daughters is worthy of being worthy
No matter how low her status
Al-Miqdad was listening to what was being said by the soothsayers
And what the Jewish rabbis narrate
That a prophet has long lived
He will fill the world with righteousness, goodness and justice
He says to himself, “Maybe, maybe.”
It was only a short time ago
Until God sent His Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
I seek guidance and truth
As soon as Al-Miqdad bin Omar heard about it
Until he ran to him and put his hand in his
He bore witness that there is no god but God
And that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger
Then he went to the Quraysh gatherings near the Kaaba
He announced his conversion to Islam to a crowd of people
He was the seventh of seven to declare their conversion to Islam
On the surface of the earth
Al-Miqdad bin Omar was not there when he went
To the Quraish councils to announce his entry
In the religion of God openly and daylight
He does not know the impact of this on the Quraysh
It was not hidden from him what they would bring down
From harm and punishment
But he also knew
That call is like the call of Islam
She must have offerings
He was determined to be one of its martyrs and victims
Quraysh attacked Al-Miqdad bin Omar
Its oppression and cruelty make mountains quake
He was not shaken or weakened
And the torment did not increase him
Except for his firmness in his religion
Firm in his faith and certainty
When the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, gave permission
His companions migrated to Medina
Quraysh refused to accept Al-Miqdad bin Omar
To leave her big prison
She had a grudge against him
He agrees with his challenge to her
Therefore, he was one of the last Muslims to emigrate
Then he was unable to get rid of the Quraysh
Except with a trick
When he arrived in the city
The Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, was happy
With an introduction
Because he loved him very much
And he says
God Almighty commanded me to love four people
He told me he loved them
Ali and Al-Miqdad
And Abu Dharr and Salman
The oath of the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace
The immigrants included dozens of his companions
And put all ten in a house
Al-Miqdad bin Omar was one of the ten
She was happy to live with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
I was pleased with his generosity
I received a lot of kindness and compassion from him
Al-Miqdad said
I was among the ten chosen by the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
To be with him in his house
The family of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, had three female goats
They fight it and distribute its milk among us
We said, “We will give the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, his share.”
One night, I and two of my friends came
Hunger had exhausted us to the point that we were almost unable to hear or see
As for my two friends, they drank their share and fell asleep
As for me, what I drank was not enough for me
I was left with an empty stomach and could not sleep due to extreme hunger
Satan said to me: What would you do if you drank this potion that was presented to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace?
The Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, would come to him
They will give him something like it if he wants
I was still tempted by it until I drank it
When I drank it, Satan came to me, regretting what I had done and saying:
What did you make yourself?
Now Muhammad comes and does not find a tassel
He will pray against you and you will perish
The night was cold
When I put it on my head, my feet would be visible
If I cover my feet with it, my head will be exposed
Whenever the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, came at night
He says hello and listens to the two people
It does not wake the sleeper
It was only a short time until he came and greeted him
Then he prayed as long as God wanted him to pray
I look at him from under the veil
Then he checked his drink and did not find it
So he raised his hand
So I said, “Now he will pray for me and your family.”
But he said
Oh God, feed those who feed me
Drink from my water
So I said to myself
I feed the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
And I win his invitation
So I crept out of my place and took my blade
I said I would slaughter one of the goats for him
Let it happen after that
Then I went to Al-Azan
I took hold of them to see which of them had names
Then their udders became wet with milk
Although they were milked imminently
So she took a vessel and milked one of them
Until it was filled with foam
Then I brought him to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
So he drank
Then he gave it to me and I drank
Then I handed it to him and he drank
Then he gave it to me and I drank
Then I laughed
He said to me
This is one of your actions, Miqdad
What makes you laugh?
So I told him what I had done
And he said
It was nothing but a mercy from God Almighty
If you had woken up your two friends
He became infected with the milk that we drank from
So I said
By the One who sent you with the truth
I don't care if you drink it
And I'll drink, please
Doesn't anyone drink?
Al-Miqdad bin Omar settled in the city
He was not married yet
While he was sitting with Abdul Rahman
Abdul Rahman bin Awf, may God be pleased with them both
Abdul Rahman told him
Why don't you get married, Miqdad?
Al-Miqdad said
Marry me your daughter
Abdul Rahman said
My daughter, I will not marry you, my daughter
And I heard him say a word that did not please him
Al-Miqdad stood up and said:
Is there still a remnant of ignorance among us?
As for Islam among its children
And He made the most honorable of them in the sight of God the most pious of them
Then he went to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
He mentioned to him what happened to Abdul Rahman bin Awf
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him
Would you not be satisfied with marrying the Messenger of God, O Miqdad?
Al-Miqdad did not believe my ears
He said, “Yes, O Messenger of God.”
But who has that honor?
He said, “I am yours.”
And his wife is his cousin
Dabaa bint Al-Zubayr bin Abdul Muttalib
He became a son-in-law to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
This sufficed him with glory and pride
Then it was a full moon
Where the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, came out
With three hundred and twelve men of his companions
They do not intend to fight an all-out war
When he found the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace
He's ready to go through it
He had to gain the approval of his men
So he presented the matter to them
Abu Bakr said, “It is better.”
Omar said it was better
But the situation still required a decisive, firm word
It ends hesitation and strengthens resolve
The honor of this speech went to Al-Miqdad bin Omar
Where he went to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
With his tall stature and loud voice
He said, O Messenger of God
The best thing I see is God, we are with you
By God, we will not say to you what Ben Israel said to Moses
Go, you and your Lord, and fight
We are sitting here
But we tell you
Go, you and your Lord, and fight
We are fighters with you
By the One who sent you with the truth
If you take us to Barak Al-Ghamad
We will fight with you without him until you reach him
The face of the Holy Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, shone
With joy
He said good to him and prayed for him to be well
Al-Miqdad bin Omar was at that time
The only Mujahid who fought at Badr on a horse
The rest were either on foot or on camels
He recorded the history of jihad in Islam
He was the first to gallop on a horse for the sake of God
Al-Miqdad bin Omar tasted the pleasure of jihad for the sake of God on the day of Badr
He decided to continue striving to uphold the word of God
As long as his sword remained in his hand
He fulfilled his oath
It was seen during the caliphate of Othman bin Othman, may God be pleased with them both
He sits on a money changer's box
In one of the Hamas markets
He grew old until he was nearly seventy
His body sagged until it overflowed from the box
His sword was in his lap
A man from the people said to him
What are you doing here, O companion of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace?
He said, “I am waiting for the invaders to leave for the borders so that I can be with them.”
He said to him: Have you not returned to your home?
God has excused you
After I reached my age
He said, “Bring it, my son.”
Surat Al-Ba'uth has rejected us
He wants Surat Al-Anfal
Didn't you hear what God Almighty said?
Go forth, whether light or heavy
I find in it that God has excluded me
Al-Miqdad bin Omar lived until he was seventy-three years old
I offer sacrifice for the sake of God, abstaining from leadership
And when certainty came to him
The remaining companions of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, saw him in Lahdah
And they say
One of God's swords returned to its sheath
After long trouble and good tribulation
I will be guided for the sake of God
