pleased with him, freed his neck 00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:56.759 After his craft began to bring him abundant profit and much good 00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:01.759 He was a skilled coppersmith who mastered making pots 00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:08.790 He was chosen as a servant of the Commander of the Faithful, Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him 00:01:08.790 --> 00:01:13.239 Safia is invited to

are related to her and the young women who are related to her 00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:42.239 Among the older women who saw her, he rated them as a sound mind and sober behavior 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:49.370 The women who loved her the most were the wives of the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him 00:01:49.370 --> 00:01:53.370 Not to mention Mrs. Aisha, may God be pleased with her 00:01:53.370 --> 00:01:58.739 Sirin came forward to the Commander of the Faithful 00:01:58.739 --> 00:02:01.739 So he proposed to his mistress, Safiyya 00:02:01.739 --> 00:02:06.739 The friend, may God be pleased with him, took the initiative to research the suitor’s religion and character 00:02:06.739 --> 00:02:12.740 The caring father also takes the initiative to search for the condition of his daughter’s suitor 00:02:12.740 --> 00:02:20.740 Make no mistake, Safiyya occupied the status of a son in relation to Abu Bakr, as a son in relation to his father 00:02:20.740 --> 00:02:26.740 Then after that, it is all a trust, or God has left it on his neck 00:02:26.740 --> 00:02:30.780 He went on to investigate Sirin's conditions more closely 00:02:30.780 --> 00:02:34.780 His biography is closely followed 00:02:34.780 --> 00:02:40.780 Anas bin Malik, may God be pleased with him, was at the forefront of those who asked them about him 00:02:40.780 --> 00:02:45.780 Anas said to him, “O Commander of the Faithful, marry her to him.” 00:02:45.780 --> 00:02:48.780 Do not fear any harm for her 00:02:48.780 --> 00:02:54.780 I did not know him except one who was true to religion, pleased with his character, and well-mannered 00:02:54.780 --> 00:02:59.780 His reasons have been linked to my reasons since Khalid bin Al-Walid took him captive 00:02:59.780 --> 00:03:06.780 In the battle of Ain al-Tamr, he brought with forty boys to the city 00:03:06.780 --> 00:03:11.939 Sirin was my lot and I was lucky with him 00:03:11.939 --> 00:03:16.939 Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him, agreed to marry Safiya to Sirin 00:03:16.939 --> 00:03:22.939 He was determined to honor her as a compassionate father would honor his beloved daughter 00:03:22.939 --> 00:03:29.939 He threw a party for her queen, the likes of which few girls in the city had ever received 00:03:29.939 --> 00:03:35.000 A large group of noble companions witnessed its ownership 00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.000 There were eighteen Badrians among them 00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:45.000 The scribe of the revelation of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, called for her Ubayy ibn Ka’b 00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:48.000 And those present believed in his prayers 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:57.000 And her kindness and beauty were three of the Mothers of the Believers, may God be pleased with them, when she was married off to her husband 00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:03.000 One of the fruits of this blessed marriage was that the parents were blessed with a son 00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:09.000 After two decades, he became a prominent figure among the followers 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:14.000 One of the most distinguished Muslims was Muhammad ibn Sirin 00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:21.860 So let us begin the story of the life of this venerable follower from the beginning 00:04:21.860 --> 00:04:30.860 Muhammad bin Sirin was born during the remaining two years of the caliphate of the Commander of the Faithful, Othman bin Affan, may God be pleased with him 00:04:30.860 --> 00:04:36.860 He was raised in a home with piety and piety from every corner 00:04:36.860 --> 00:04:39.860 And when the intelligent, clever boy woke up 00:04:39.860 --> 00:04:43.860 He found the mosque of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:04:43.860 --> 00:04:49.860 It is filled with the remaining remnants of the noble Companions and senior followers 00:04:49.860 --> 00:04:55.860 Such as Zaid bin Thabit, Anas bin Malik, and Imran bin Al-Hussein 00:04:55.860 --> 00:05:05.860 And Abdullah bin Omar, Abdullah bin Abbas, Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr, and Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with them all. 00:05:05.860 --> 00:05:09.860 So I approached them as a thirsty person would seek a sweet resource 00:05:09.860 --> 00:05:14.860 He benefited from their knowledge of the Book of God and their understanding of the religion of God 00:05:14.860 --> 00:05:19.860 And their narration of the hadith of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:05:19.860 --> 00:05:22.860 How full of wisdom and knowledge his mind is 00:05:22.860 --> 00:05:25.860 And he provided himself with righteousness and guidance 00:05:25.860 --> 00:05:30.949 Then the family moved with their outstanding boy to Basra 00:05:30.949 --> 00:05:34.050 She made it her home 00:05:34.050 --> 00:05:38.050 Basra at that time was a young and virgin city 00:05:38.050 --> 00:05:44.050 The Muslims planned it at the end of the caliphate of Al-Farouq, may God be pleased with him 00:05:44.050 --> 00:05:50.050 It represented most of the characteristics of the Islamic nation in that era 00:05:50.050 --> 00:05:56.050 It is a military base for Muslim armies invading for the sake of God 00:05:56.050 --> 00:06:04.050 It is one of the centers of education and guidance for those entering the religion of God from the people of Iraq and Persia 00:06:04.050 --> 00:06:12.050 It is an image of a serious Islamic society that works for its worldly life as if it were living forever 00:06:12.050 --> 00:06:16.050 He works until the end as if he will die tomorrow 00:06:16.050 --> 00:06:25.420 In his new life in Basra, Muhammad bin Sirin took two parallel and balanced paths 00:06:25.420 --> 00:06:29.459 So he devoted part of his day to knowledge and worship 00:06:29.459 --> 00:06:32.459 Another part is for earning and trading 00:06:32.459 --> 00:06:37.459 Then dawn came and the world shone with the light of its Lord 00:06:37.459 --> 00:06:41.459 Tomorrow to the Basra Mosque to teach and learn 00:06:41.459 --> 00:06:47.459 Even when the day rose, he went from the mosque to the market, buying and selling 00:06:47.459 --> 00:06:52.459 When night comes and the universe falls into a blanket 00:06:52.459 --> 00:06:58.459 He lined up in the mihrab of his house and bowed over parts of the Qur’an with his cross 00:06:58.459 --> 00:07:03.459 He cried out of fear of the Most Merciful, with tears in his eyes and heart 00:07:03.459 --> 00:07:07.459 Until his family and envious neighbors pity him 00:07:07.459 --> 00:07:12.459 When they hear his wailing that breaks the hearts 00:07:12.459 --> 00:07:18.420 He used to roam the market during the day, buying and selling 00:07:18.420 --> 00:07:23.420 He never ceases to remind people of the afterlife and give them insight into this world 00:07:23.420 --> 00:07:26.420 He guides them to what brings them closer to God 00:07:26.420 --> 00:07:29.420 He decides on the disputes that arise between them 00:07:29.420 --> 00:07:33.420 He used to nudge them from time to time with salt 00:07:33.420 --> 00:07:37.420 Which wipes away the worries from their distressed souls 00:07:37.420 --> 00:07:42.420 Without this detracting from his prestige and respect among them in any way 00:07:42.420 --> 00:07:47.449 God Almighty gave him guidance and honor 00:07:47.449 --> 00:07:50.449 And give him acceptance and influence 00:07:50.449 --> 00:07:55.449 When people saw him in the market, they were immersed and unaware 00:07:55.449 --> 00:08:00.449 Pay attention and remember God Almighty, and praise and exalt God 00:08:00.449 --> 00:08:05.480 His practical life was the best guide for people 00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:08.480 Two things happened to him in his business 00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:11.480 Unless he takes the most reliable of them in his religion 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.480 Even if there is a loss that befalls the world 00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:19.980 His understanding of the secrets of religion was accurate 00:08:19.980 --> 00:08:23.980 And the correctness of his view of what is permissible and what is not permissible 00:08:23.980 --> 00:08:29.980 Sometimes it pushes him into some situations that seem strange to people's eyes 00:08:29.980 --> 00:08:36.980 For example, a man falsely claimed that he owed two dirhams 00:08:36.980 --> 00:08:39.980 He refused to give them to him 00:08:39.980 --> 00:08:42.980 The man said to him, “Shall I swear?” 00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:46.980 He thinks he will not swear for two dirhams 00:08:46.980 --> 00:08:49.980 He said yes and swore to him 00:08:51.019 --> 00:08:53.019 And the people said to him 00:08:53.019 --> 00:08:57.019 O Abu Bakr, I swear for two dirhams 00:08:57.019 --> 00:09:02.019 And you are the one who left forty thousand dirhams yesterday for something that you have acquired 00:09:02.019 --> 00:09:05.019 Which no one but you would suspect 00:09:05.019 --> 00:09:08.019 He said: Yes, I swear 00:09:08.019 --> 00:09:11.019 I do not want to feed him unlawful food 00:09:11.019 --> 00:09:15.230 I know it is forbidden 00:09:15.230 --> 00:09:17.230 It was Bin Sirin's council 00:09:17.230 --> 00:09:20.230 A council of goodness, righteousness and admonition 00:09:20.230 --> 00:09:23.230 If a man is mentioned to him with an evil deed 00:09:23.230 --> 00:09:27.230 He hastened to remind him of the best of his knowledge 00:09:27.230 --> 00:09:32.230 He even heard someone insulting the pilgrims after his death 00:09:32.230 --> 00:09:34.230 So he approached him and said 00:09:34.230 --> 00:09:36.230 Shh, my nephew 00:09:36.230 --> 00:09:39.230 Al-Hajjaj went to his Lord 00:09:39.230 --> 00:09:42.230 And when you come before God Almighty 00:09:42.230 --> 00:09:46.230 You will find that it is the most despicable sin you have committed in the world 00:09:46.230 --> 00:09:51.230 It is more difficult for yourself than the greatest sin committed by the pilgrims 00:09:51.230 --> 00:09:55.230 On that day, each of you will have something that will enrich him 00:09:55.230 --> 00:09:57.230 And teach, my nephew 00:09:57.230 --> 00:09:59.230 That God Almighty 00:09:59.230 --> 00:10:02.230 He will take revenge on the pilgrims for those who wronged them 00:10:02.230 --> 00:10:06.230 He will also retaliate against the pilgrims who wronged him 00:10:06.230 --> 00:10:10.230 Do not worry yourself after today about cursing anyone 00:10:10.230 --> 00:10:15.259 Whenever a man came to him on a business trip 00:10:15.259 --> 00:10:16.259 He told him 00:10:16.259 --> 00:10:18.259 My nephew 00:10:18.259 --> 00:10:20.259 Fear God Almighty 00:10:20.259 --> 00:10:24.259 And ask for whatever lawful path is destined for you 00:10:24.259 --> 00:10:27.259 And he knew that if you ask for it without solving it 00:10:27.259 --> 00:10:30.259 You were not injured more than you were destined to be 00:10:30.259 --> 00:10:34.379 It was by Muhammad bin Sirin 00:10:34.379 --> 00:10:38.379 The picks of the Umayyad tribe are notable positions 00:10:38.379 --> 00:10:40.379 Spread the word of truth in it 00:10:40.379 --> 00:10:43.379 I sincerely advise God and His Messenger 00:10:43.379 --> 00:10:45.379 And to the imams of Muslims 00:10:45.379 --> 00:10:49.379 From this, Omar bin Hubayra Al-Fazari 00:10:49.379 --> 00:10:51.379 The great man of Banu Umayyad 00:10:51.379 --> 00:10:53.379 And their governor over the Iraqis 00:10:53.379 --> 00:10:57.379 He sent a letter to him inviting him to visit him 00:10:57.379 --> 00:11:00.379 So he went to him and with him was my nephew 00:11:00.379 --> 00:11:02.379 When he came to him 00:11:02.379 --> 00:11:05.379 The governor welcomed him and honored him 00:11:05.379 --> 00:11:07.379 He adjourned the council 00:11:07.379 --> 00:11:11.379 He asked him about many religious and worldly matters 00:11:11.379 --> 00:11:13.379 Then he told him 00:11:13.379 --> 00:11:16.379 How did you leave the people of Egypt, Abu Bakr? 00:11:16.379 --> 00:11:18.379 And he said 00:11:18.379 --> 00:11:20.379 I left them and there was injustice among them 00:11:20.379 --> 00:11:22.379 And you are not on their side 00:11:22.379 --> 00:11:25.379 So his nephew winked at him 00:11:25.379 --> 00:11:27.379 He turned to him and said 00:11:27.379 --> 00:11:30.379 You are not the one asking about them 00:11:30.379 --> 00:11:33.379 But I am the one asking 00:11:33.379 --> 00:11:35.379 It is a testimony 00:11:35.379 --> 00:11:39.379 And whoever conceals it, his heart is sinful 00:11:39.379 --> 00:11:41.379 When the council adjourned 00:11:41.379 --> 00:11:43.379 And call him Omar bin Hubayra 00:11:43.379 --> 00:11:47.379 He received him with such warmth and reverence 00:11:47.379 --> 00:11:51.379 He sent him a bag containing three thousand dinars 00:11:51.379 --> 00:11:53.379 He did not take it 00:11:53.379 --> 00:11:55.379 His nephew said to him 00:11:55.379 --> 00:11:58.379 What prevents you from accepting the prince's gift? 00:11:58.379 --> 00:12:00.379 And he said 00:12:00.379 --> 00:12:03.379 He gave it to me because of his good belief in me 00:12:03.379 --> 00:12:06.379 If you are among the good people as he thought 00:12:06.379 --> 00:12:09.379 What should I accept? 00:12:09.379 --> 00:12:11.379 Even if I was not what he thought 00:12:11.379 --> 00:12:16.889 I would rather not deem it permissible to accept that 00:12:16.889 --> 00:12:19.889 God Almighty has willed it 00:12:19.889 --> 00:12:23.889 To test the honesty and patience of Muhammad ibn Sirin 00:12:23.889 --> 00:12:27.889 It exposes him to the tribulations that believers are exposed to 00:12:27.889 --> 00:12:29.889 From that 00:12:29.889 --> 00:12:34.889 He once bought oil for forty thousand deferred 00:12:34.889 --> 00:12:37.889 When someone opened the bottle of oil 00:12:37.889 --> 00:12:40.889 He found a dead, rotting mouse in it 00:12:40.889 --> 00:12:42.889 He said to himself 00:12:42.889 --> 00:12:47.889 All the oil was in the press in one place 00:12:47.889 --> 00:12:52.889 Impurity is not specific to this slime and no other 00:12:52.889 --> 00:12:55.889 If I return it to the seller with a defect 00:12:55.889 --> 00:12:58.889 Maybe he sold it to people 00:12:58.889 --> 00:13:01.980 Then he spilled it all 00:13:01.980 --> 00:13:03.980 This happened at a time 00:13:03.980 --> 00:13:07.980 He was complaining about a great loss that had befallen him 00:13:07.980 --> 00:13:09.980 So religion rode him 00:13:09.980 --> 00:13:12.980 The oil owner demanded his money 00:13:12.980 --> 00:13:14.980 He could not pay it 00:13:14.980 --> 00:13:16.980 So he submitted his matter to the governor 00:13:16.980 --> 00:13:20.980 So he ordered his imprisonment until he paid what I owed 00:13:20.980 --> 00:13:22.980 When he was in prison 00:13:22.980 --> 00:13:24.980 He stayed there for a long time 00:13:24.980 --> 00:13:28.980 The jailer felt sorry for him when he learned about his religion 00:13:28.980 --> 00:13:32.980 And what he saw of the intensity of his piety and the length of his worship 00:13:32.980 --> 00:13:35.980 He said to him, Sheikh 00:13:35.980 --> 00:13:37.980 If it's night 00:13:37.980 --> 00:13:40.980 So go to your family and spend the night with them 00:13:40.980 --> 00:13:42.980 If you wake up, come back to me 00:13:42.980 --> 00:13:46.980 Continue doing so until you are released 00:13:46.980 --> 00:13:51.019 He said to him, “No, by God, I will not do it.” 00:13:51.019 --> 00:13:53.019 The jailer said 00:13:53.019 --> 00:13:55.019 And when God guided you 00:13:55.019 --> 00:14:00.019 He said to him, “So that I will not help you betray the ruler.” 00:14:01.019 --> 00:14:06.100 When Anas bin Malik, may God be pleased with him, was dying 00:14:06.100 --> 00:14:10.100 He recommended that Muhammad ibn Sirin wash him and pray over him 00:14:10.100 --> 00:14:13.100 He was still imprisoned 00:14:13.100 --> 00:14:17.100 When he died, people came to the governor 00:14:17.100 --> 00:14:23.100 They informed him of the will of the companion of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and his servant 00:14:23.100 --> 00:14:29.100 They asked him for permission to release Muhammad ibn Sirin to enforce the will 00:14:29.100 --> 00:14:31.100 So he gave him permission 00:14:31.100 --> 00:14:33.100 Muhammad bin Sirin said to them 00:14:33.100 --> 00:14:37.100 I will not go out until you ask the debtor for permission 00:14:37.100 --> 00:14:41.100 I was imprisoned because of the right he had over me 00:14:41.100 --> 00:14:43.100 The creditor also allowed him 00:14:43.100 --> 00:14:46.100 Then he came out of prison 00:14:46.100 --> 00:14:50.100 So he washed Anas, shrouded him, and prayed over him 00:14:50.100 --> 00:14:53.100 Then he returned to prison as he was 00:14:53.100 --> 00:14:55.100 He did not go to see his family 00:14:55.100 --> 00:15:01.610 The life of Muhammad bin Sirin until he reached seventy-seven 00:15:01.610 --> 00:15:03.610 When certainty came to him 00:15:03.610 --> 00:15:07.610 He found it light to carry the burdens of the world 00:15:07.610 --> 00:15:10.610 Plenty of provision after death 00:15:10.610 --> 00:15:13.610 Hafsa bint Rashid narrated 00:15:13.610 --> 00:15:16.610 She was one of the worshipers, she said 00:15:16.610 --> 00:15:19.610 Marwan Al-Mahli was our neighbor 00:15:19.610 --> 00:15:23.610 He was steadfast in worship and diligent in obedience 00:15:23.610 --> 00:15:25.610 When he died 00:15:25.610 --> 00:15:28.610 We were very sad for him 00:15:28.610 --> 00:15:30.610 I saw him in a dream 00:15:30.610 --> 00:15:33.610 So I said, Abu Abdullah 00:15:33.610 --> 00:15:35.610 What has your Lord done to you? 00:15:35.610 --> 00:15:38.610 He said, “Admit me to Paradise.” 00:15:38.610 --> 00:15:40.610 I said then what? 00:15:40.610 --> 00:15:44.610 Then it was raised to the companions of the right, he said 00:15:44.610 --> 00:15:46.610 I said then what? 00:15:46.610 --> 00:15:50.610 He said then it was raised to those close to him 00:15:50.610 --> 00:15:53.610 I said who did I see there? 00:15:53.610 --> 00:15:56.610 Al-Hasan Al-Basri said 00:15:56.610 --> 00:16:03.799 And Muhammad bin Sirin 00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:06.799 I have never seen a man more knowledgeable in his piety 00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:08.799 I am not keen on jurisprudence 00:16:08.799 --> 00:16:11.960 From Muhammad bin Sirin 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:15.629 Leafy for the calf 00:16:29.500 --> 00:16:34.500 They left and threw a question in my mind 00:16:34.500 --> 00:16:39.500 Is there a star like them in the sky and its hills? 00:16:39.500 --> 00:16:44.500 They filled their lives with pride 00:16:44.500 --> 00:16:48.500 The world of self-sufficiency became apparent to them
