00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.439
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:12.929
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

00:00:12.929 --> 00:00:17.489
A Summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).

00:00:17.489 --> 00:00:26.940
We recall the First Pledge of al-'Aqabah.

00:00:26.940 --> 00:00:29.739
The two Shaykhs (al-Bukhari and Muslim) narrated in their respective Sahih collections,

00:00:29.739 --> 00:00:33.899
on the authority of 'Ubadah Ibn al-Samit, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:00:34.060 --> 00:00:37.659
We pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:00:37.659 --> 00:00:41.259
to hear and obey, whether in times of ease or hardship,

00:00:41.259 --> 00:00:43.340
and in times of joy or adversity,

00:00:43.340 --> 00:00:46.179
and to accept being passed over in favor of others,

00:00:46.179 --> 00:00:49.759
and that we would not dispute the authority of those in charge,

00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:53.359
and that we would speak the truth wherever we may be,

00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:57.380
fearing no blame from anyone for the sake of Allah.

00:00:57.380 --> 00:01:02.020
Al-Bayhaqi also narrated in Dala'il al-Nubuwwah with a sound chain of transmission,

00:01:02.179 --> 00:01:06.420
on the authority of 'Ubadah Ibn al-Samit, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:01:06.420 --> 00:01:10.420
We pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:01:10.420 --> 00:01:14.180
to hear and obey, whether in times of energy or lethargy,

00:01:14.180 --> 00:01:17.140
and to spend in charity, whether in times of ease or hardship,

00:01:17.140 --> 00:01:21.250
and to enjoin good and forbid evil,

00:01:21.250 --> 00:01:23.810
and to speak for the sake of Allah,

00:01:23.810 --> 00:01:27.329
fearing no blame from anyone for His sake,

00:01:27.329 --> 00:01:31.489
and to support the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:01:31.489 --> 00:01:34.689
and that when he arrived in Yathrib,

00:01:34.689 --> 00:01:39.329
we would protect him as we protect ourselves, our wives, and our children,

00:01:39.329 --> 00:01:41.409
and in return, we would have Paradise.

00:01:41.409 --> 00:01:45.329
This is the pledge of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:01:45.329 --> 00:01:48.049
which we swore to him.

00:01:48.049 --> 00:01:50.129
They are well-known.

00:01:50.129 --> 00:01:51.170
I say:

00:01:51.170 --> 00:01:54.450
As for the description of the First Pledge of al-'Aqabah,

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.

00:02:00.609 --> 00:02:04.849
A Summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah),

00:02:04.849 --> 00:02:10.370
authored by Shaykh Musa Ibn Rashid al-'Azimi,

00:02:10.370 --> 00:02:16.900
and presented by the Mawaddah Association in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

00:02:32.139 --> 00:02:39.500
The longing for you is boundless,

00:02:39.500 --> 00:02:46.240
may Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,

00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:54.449
and as long as lips move in remembrance.
