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
Rabei bin Ziyad Al-Harithi, may God be pleased with him
This is the city of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
She is still mourning the loss of her friend
And this and the chaos of the cities advances to Yathrib every day
Pledging allegiance to his successor, Omar bin Al-Khattab, on listening and obedience, whether active or forced
One morning, the Bahrain delegation was presented to the Commander of the Faithful
With another group of delegations
Al-Farouq, may God be pleased with him, was very keen to hear what those coming to him said
Perhaps he will find in what they say a profound sermon
Or a useful idea or advice for God, His Book, and the general Muslims
He summoned a number of those present to speak, but they did not say anything
He turned to a man who was characterized by goodness and gestured to him and said, “Give me what you have.”
The man thanked God and praised him, then said:
O Commander of the Faithful, you have not been in charge of this nation
Except as a test from God Almighty to test you with
So fear God in what you have been given
He knew that if he strayed, he would chat on the shore of the Euphrates
I will be asked about it on the Day of Resurrection
Omar burst into tears and said:
No one has believed me since I became your successor. You have not believed me
Who are you?
And he said
Al-Rabee bin Ziyad Al-Harithi
And he said
Brother of Al-Muhajir bin Ziyad
And he said yes
When the council adjourned, Omar bin Al-Khattab called Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari
And he said
Investigate the matter of Al-Rabi bin Ziyad
If he is honest, then there is much good in him
Help us in this matter
Use it and write to me about it
Only a few days had passed since that day
Until Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari prepared an army
To open sources from the land of Ahvaz
According to the order of the Caliph
Al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad was appointed to the army
And his brother, the immigrant
Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari besieged Manathir
He fought fierce battles with its people
There are few wars that have seen anything like it
The polytheists showed extreme courage
And the strength of the punch
What never occurred to me
There was a lot of killing among Muslims
Lost of all appreciation
The Muslims were at that time
They fight while fasting Ramadan
When Al-Muhajir saw the brother of Al-Rabi’ bin Ziyad
Murder has increased among Muslims
He decided to buy himself
Seeking God's pleasure
So he was mummified and shrouded himself and advised his brother
So Al-Rabi went to Abu Musa and said
The immigrant has decided to buy himself
He is fasting
The Muslims have gathered against them
From the stress of war and the intensity of fasting
What weakened their resolve?
They refuse breakfast
So do what you see
Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari stood up
He called out to the army
O Muslims!
I resolved to every fasting person
Whoever slackens or stops fighting
He drank from a jug he had with him
For people to drink, he preached it
When the immigrant heard his statement
He took a gulp of water and said
I swear I did not drink it out of thirst
But I justified my prince's resolve
Then Hossam snorted
He began to break ranks
The men fight without fear or fear
When he entered the enemy army
They closed in on him from all sides
Their swords crossed him from in front of him and behind him
Until the last struggle
Then he had his head cut off
They set it up on a balcony overlooking the battlefield
Al-Rabi looked at him and said
Blessed are you and have a good home
I swear to God that you will be rewarded
And to kill Muslims, God willing
When he saw Abu Musa
When he came to the spring of anxiety for his brother
He realized the anger that arose in his chest against the enemies of God
He relinquished command of the army to him
And licorice detergents to open them
Spring and its host blew against the polytheists like a hurricane
They placed rocks on their strongholds when the torrent destroyed them
They tore their ranks apart and weakened their strength
So God forced Manathir to Al-Rabi’ ibn Ziyad
He killed the fighter and insulted the wealthy woman
And sheep as God wills
The star of Al-Rabi bin Ziyad shone after the Battle of Manathir
His name spread on every tongue
He became one of the distinguished leaders who hope for great deeds
When the Muslims decided to conquer Sijistan
They entrusted him with command of the army
They hoped for victory at his hands
Al-Rabi’ ibn Ziyad went with his invading army on the path of God to Sijistan
Across a mezzanine 75 farsakhs long
Tired of being cut off by the ravaging beasts of the desert
The first thing Rustaq presented to him was Zaliq on the borders of Sijistan
It is a rustic city full of luxurious palaces
Surrounded by majestic forts
Abundant in goodness and abundant in fruits
The suspicious leader looked at Rustaq Zaliq before he reached him
He learned that the people would soon celebrate their festival
He waited for them until he caught them by surprise on the night of the festival
I put a sword to their necks and took them by force
20 thousand of them were taken captive
Dehqanham fell into his hands captive
Among the captivity was Mamluk al-Dahqan
They found that he had collected 300 thousand to carry it to his master
Al-Rabi’ asked him, “Where is this money from?”
He said, “From one of my master’s villages.”
He said to him: Does one village give him such money every year?
He said yes and he said how
With our axes, machetes and sweat, he said
And when the battle ended
Al-Dahqan approached Al-Rabi’ and offered to ransom himself and his family
He said to him, “I will give you a ransom if you give the Muslims a generous ransom.”
He said: How much do you want?
He said, "Put this spear in the ground."
Then you pour gold and silver on it until it is completely covered
He said: I am satisfied
He extracted what was in his treasures of yellow and white
He started pouring it onto the spear until it covered it
Al-Rabi' ibn Ziyad penetrated the land of Sijistan with his isolated army
Then the fortresses began to fall under the horses' horseshoes
The leaves also fall under the gust of the autumn wind
The people of cities and villages received him in confidence and submission
Before he pointed the sword in their faces
Until he reached the city of Zaranj, the capital of Sijistan
Then the enemy prepared for his war
He wrote to meet him with the Phalange
He brought help to confront him
He decided to protect him from the big city
And to stop his advance on Sijistan, no matter the cost
Then a fierce war broke out between Al-Rabi and his enemies
Neither party begrudged her what she demanded of the victims
When the first signs of victory for the Muslims appeared
Marzban saw the people called Parviz
To seek reconciliation in the spring
It still has some strength left in it
Perhaps he might get better conditions for himself and his people
So he sent a messenger from him to Al-Rabi’ bin Ziyad
He asks him to set up an appointment to meet him to negotiate reconciliation
He answered his request
Al-Rabi ordered his men to prepare the place to receive Perviz
He asked them to pile piles of dead bodies around the council
And to be placed on both sides of the road that Pervez will pass
Other bodies are scattered in disorder
The tall spring was great and important
He is very dark and has a large body
It terrifies anyone who sees it
When Pervez entered upon him
His jaws trembled in fear
His heart was seized with fear at the sight of the killing
He did not dare to approach him
He was afraid and did not come forward to shake his hand
And he spoke to him with a stagnant, stagnant tongue
He agreed with him on the condition that he provide him with a thousand groomsmen
On the head of each attendant is a bowl of gold
That is, a cup of gold
Before the spring, Pervez agreed on that
And the next day
Al-Rabi bin Ziyad entered the city
Surrounded by this procession of gentlemen
Between the Muslims saying “Allah is great” and “Allah is great.”
It was a witnessed day from the days of God
Al-Rabi bin Ziyad remained a powerful sword in the hands of Muslims
They use it to attack the enemies of God
He opened the cities for them and appointed the provinces for them
Until the matter came to the Umayyads
He appointed Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan as governor of Khurasan
However, he was not happy with this mandate
This increased his resentment and hatred towards her
That Ziyad bin Abi
One of the most prominent rulers of Banu Umayyad
He sent him a letter saying:
The Commander of the Faithful is Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan
He orders you to keep the yellow and white
From the spoils of war to the Muslim treasury
Everything else is divided among the Mujahideen
So he wrote to him saying:
I found the book of God Almighty
He orders something other than what you ordered me to do
On the tongue of the Commander of the Faithful
Then he called out to the people
If you go in the morning to get your spoils, take them
Then the fifth was sent to the Caliphate in Damascus
And since it was the Friday that followed the arrival of this book
Al-Rabi’ bin Ziyad went out to pray wearing white clothes
He gave the people the Friday sermon and then said:
People
I am tired of life
I am calling for a supplication, so believe in my supplication
Then he said
Oh God, if you want good for me
So take me to you sooner than later
So people believed in his prayers
The sun did not set that day
Until Al-Rabi bin Ziyad joined his Lord
No one has believed me since I became a successor
Al-Rabi’ bin Ziyad also believed me
Omar bin Al-Khattab
Oh poetry, and it makes me sad
In their praise, are they greater?
