1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,439
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

2
00:00:03,439 --> 00:00:12,929
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

3
00:00:12,929 --> 00:00:17,489
A Summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).

4
00:00:17,489 --> 00:00:26,940
We recall the First Pledge of al-'Aqabah.

5
00:00:26,940 --> 00:00:29,739
The two Shaykhs (al-Bukhari and Muslim) narrated in their respective Sahih collections,

6
00:00:29,739 --> 00:00:33,899
on the authority of 'Ubadah Ibn al-Samit, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

7
00:00:34,060 --> 00:00:37,659
We pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

8
00:00:37,659 --> 00:00:41,259
to hear and obey, whether in times of ease or hardship,

9
00:00:41,259 --> 00:00:43,340
and in times of joy or adversity,

10
00:00:43,340 --> 00:00:46,179
and to accept being passed over in favor of others,

11
00:00:46,179 --> 00:00:49,759
and that we would not dispute the authority of those in charge,

12
00:00:49,759 --> 00:00:53,359
and that we would speak the truth wherever we may be,

13
00:00:53,359 --> 00:00:57,380
fearing no blame from anyone for the sake of Allah.

14
00:00:57,380 --> 00:01:02,020
Al-Bayhaqi also narrated in Dala'il al-Nubuwwah with a sound chain of transmission,

15
00:01:02,179 --> 00:01:06,420
on the authority of 'Ubadah Ibn al-Samit, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

16
00:01:06,420 --> 00:01:10,420
We pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

17
00:01:10,420 --> 00:01:14,180
to hear and obey, whether in times of energy or lethargy,

18
00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:17,140
and to spend in charity, whether in times of ease or hardship,

19
00:01:17,140 --> 00:01:21,250
and to enjoin good and forbid evil,

20
00:01:21,250 --> 00:01:23,810
and to speak for the sake of Allah,

21
00:01:23,810 --> 00:01:27,329
fearing no blame from anyone for His sake,

22
00:01:27,329 --> 00:01:31,489
and to support the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

23
00:01:31,489 --> 00:01:34,689
and that when he arrived in Yathrib,

24
00:01:34,689 --> 00:01:39,329
we would protect him as we protect ourselves, our wives, and our children,

25
00:01:39,329 --> 00:01:41,409
and in return, we would have Paradise.

26
00:01:41,409 --> 00:01:45,329
This is the pledge of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

27
00:01:45,329 --> 00:01:48,049
which we swore to him.

28
00:01:48,049 --> 00:01:50,129
They are well-known.

29
00:01:50,129 --> 00:01:51,170
I say:

30
00:01:51,170 --> 00:01:54,450
As for the description of the First Pledge of al-'Aqabah,

31
00:01:54,450 --> 00:01:59,810
it was upon the same terms as the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, pledged with the women.

33
00:02:04,849 --> 00:02:10,370
authored by Shaykh Musa Ibn Rashid al-'Azimi,

34

and presented by the Mawaddah Association in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

35
00:02:32,139 --> 00:02:39,500
The longing for you is boundless,

36
00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:46,240
may Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,

37
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:54,449
and as long as lips move in remembrance.
