Among the beauties of the Prophetic biography (Seerah)

2
00:00:05,820 --> 00:00:12,599
Is his magnificent forgiveness.

3
00:00:12,599 --> 00:00:16,100
They caused him profound harm,

4
00:00:16,100 --> 00:00:18,359
Drove him from his home,

5
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:20,600
Attacked his Companions,

6
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,600
Conspired against him,

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,420
And fought him on numerous occasions.

8
00:00:26,420 --> 00:00:28,920
Yet Allah granted him victory over them,

9
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,920
Breaking their power and shattering their arrogance.

10
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,159
When he encountered them at the conquest of Makkah,

11
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,159
Forgiveness prevailed over vengeance,

12
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,159
Clemency over retribution,

13
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,659
And pardon over retaliation.

14
00:00:44,659 --> 00:00:48,159
Through this, he attained honor and his nobility became manifest.

15
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,159
People were astonished by his character,

16
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,219
For he is the one who said:

17
00:00:53,219 --> 00:00:58,350
"Allah increases a servant in nothing but honor through forgiveness."

18
00:00:58,350 --> 00:01:01,350
They witness his words to them in the Seerah:

19
00:01:01,590 --> 00:01:05,319
"Go, for you are the free ones."

20
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:10,319
He released them, set them free, and bestowed grace upon them.

21
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,319
Thus, the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, recorded

22
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,819
A historical stance without parallel,

23
00:01:16,819 --> 00:01:19,819
Which is inscribed among the noble character traits.

24
00:01:19,819 --> 00:01:24,549
Only those of great soul do such things,

25
00:01:24,549 --> 00:01:28,549
Those who prioritize the hereafter over this world,

26
00:01:28,549 --> 00:01:31,549
Who do not seek vengeance except for the sake of Allah,

27
00:01:31,549 --> 00:01:34,549
Who prefer the call to faith over personal status,

28
00:01:34,549 --> 00:01:38,549
And who strive for the pleasure of Allah, not His displeasure.

29
00:01:38,549 --> 00:01:40,549
And Allah is the One whose help is sought.

30
00:01:40,549 --> 00:01:42,709
Allah the Exalted says:

31
00:01:42,709 --> 00:01:47,739
“The guerdon of an ill-deed is an ill the like thereof. But whosoever pardoneth and amendeth, his wage is the affair of Allah. Lo! He loveth not wrong-doers.” (42:40)

32
00:01:47,739 --> 00:01:51,739
"But whoever pardons and makes reconciliation, his reward is [due] from Allah."

33
00:01:51,739 --> 00:01:54,739
“The guerdon of an ill-deed is an ill the like thereof. But whosoever pardoneth and amendeth, his wage is the affair of Allah. Lo! He loveth not wrong-doers.” (42:40)

34
00:01:54,739 --> 00:01:58,439
Among the things that assist in this

35
00:01:58,439 --> 00:02:02,439
Is a sound heart, purified from all ailments,

36
00:02:02,439 --> 00:02:07,439
Looking toward the hereafter and the greatness of Allah’s bounty,

37
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:10,439
Rising above the whims of the self,

38
00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:13,439
And struggling to embody the character of the great,

39
00:02:13,439 --> 00:02:16,539
And the Prophetic characteristics (Shama'il) of Islam.

40
00:02:16,539 --> 00:02:18,539
And Allah is the Grantor of success.
