1
00:00:00,460 --> 00:00:03,459
Stop.

2
00:00:03,459 --> 00:00:08,460
Get to know the Companions, the scholars, and the most eminent among them.

3
00:00:12,460 --> 00:00:16,460
A new challenge: Who am I?

4
00:00:16,460 --> 00:00:22,019
I am one of the scholars among the Companions.

5
00:00:22,019 --> 00:00:24,019
I embraced Islam while I was still young.

6
00:00:24,019 --> 00:00:27,019
I was among the allies of the Ansar.

7
00:00:27,019 --> 00:00:30,149
My mother brought me to Medina.

8
00:00:30,149 --> 00:00:32,149
After the death of my father.

9
00:00:32,149 --> 00:00:35,149
She married a man from the Ansar.

10
00:00:35,149 --> 00:00:39,149
I was raised under his care until I became a young boy.

11
00:00:39,149 --> 00:00:44,179
I used to attend the gatherings of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

12
00:00:44,179 --> 00:00:47,179
I memorized a great deal of knowledge from him.

13
00:00:47,179 --> 00:00:50,179
Nothing prevented me from speaking.

14
00:00:50,179 --> 00:00:53,179
Except that there were men present here.

15
00:00:53,179 --> 00:00:58,009
Who were older than me in age.

16
00:00:58,009 --> 00:01:00,009
When the Battle of Uhud took place.

17
00:01:00,009 --> 00:01:04,010
I wanted to participate with the Muslims in the battle.

18
00:01:04,010 --> 00:01:09,010
But the Prophet, peace be upon him, turned me away because of my young age.

19
00:01:09,010 --> 00:01:13,069
Yet he permitted Rafi' Ibn Khadij, may Allah be pleased with him.

20
00:01:13,069 --> 00:01:16,069
So I said, "O Messenger of Allah,

21
00:01:16,069 --> 00:01:19,069
You have permitted him and turned me away,

22
00:01:19,069 --> 00:01:22,170
Even though if I were to wrestle him, I would throw him to the ground."

23
00:01:22,170 --> 00:01:25,170
So the Prophet, peace be upon him, said,

24
00:01:25,170 --> 00:01:28,170
"Go ahead and wrestle him."

25
00:01:28,170 --> 00:01:30,170
I wrestled him and threw him to the ground.

26
00:01:30,170 --> 00:01:34,170
So the Prophet, peace be upon him, permitted me to join.

27
00:01:34,170 --> 00:01:39,939
I was the governor of Basra during the Umayyad era.

28
00:01:39,939 --> 00:01:43,939
During my governorship, I was stern against the Khawarij.

29
00:01:43,939 --> 00:01:47,939
If they brought one of them to me, I would execute him.

30
00:01:47,939 --> 00:01:52,939
And I would say, "They are the worst of the slain under the canopy of the sky;

31
00:01:52,939 --> 00:01:58,129
They declare Muslims to be disbelievers and shed blood."

32
00:01:59,129 --> 00:02:04,569

Upon the release of the next episode, if Allah wills.

35
00:02:13,860 --> 00:02:18,979
The best of generations in their stances and examples,

36
00:02:18,979 --> 00:02:23,979
Following the Messenger whenever he acted or spoke.

37
00:02:23,979 --> 00:02:28,979
They were here, watering the clouds of our lives,

38
00:02:28,979 --> 00:02:33,979
And whenever their memory is mentioned among us, it is exalted.

39
00:02:33,979 --> 00:02:38,979
They departed and cast a question into the conscience:

40
00:02:38,979 --> 00:02:43,979
Is there a star like them that has risen and shone?

41
00:02:43,979 --> 00:02:48,979
They filled life with glories through their deeds,

42
00:02:48,979 --> 00:02:53,979
And the world of humanity flourished because of them.
