WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.000 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful 00:00:15.220 --> 00:00:18.219 Mawaddah Association is pleased 00:00:18.219 --> 00:00:22.219 To present to you pictures from the lives of the Companions 00:00:22.219 --> 00:00:25.219 By Abd al-Rahman Rafat al-Basha 00:00:25.219 --> 00:00:27.260 May God have mercy on him 00:00:27.260 --> 00:00:36.619 Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani, may God be pleased with him 00:00:47.979 --> 00:00:52.979 This is the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, reaching the outskirts of Yathrib 00:00:52.979 --> 00:00:56.070 After a long period of eagerness and anticipation 00:00:56.070 --> 00:00:59.070 And here they are, the people of the good city 00:00:59.070 --> 00:01:03.070 They crowd in the paths and on the roofs of houses 00:01:03.070 --> 00:01:07.069 They shouted loudly with joy at meeting the Prophet of Mercy 00:01:07.069 --> 00:01:09.069 And his friend 00:01:09.069 --> 00:01:12.260 Here are the little girls of the city 00:01:12.260 --> 00:01:17.260 They come out with tambourines in their hands and longing in their eyes 00:01:17.260 --> 00:01:19.260 Echoing trills 00:01:19.260 --> 00:01:21.260 The full moon is upon us 00:01:21.260 --> 00:01:24.260 From the folds of farewell 00:01:24.260 --> 00:01:26.260 We must be thanked 00:01:26.260 --> 00:01:28.260 What he calls to God is called for 00:01:28.260 --> 00:01:32.549 This is the procession of the Holy Prophet moving between the rows 00:01:32.549 --> 00:01:34.549 A masterpiece of longing 00:01:34.549 --> 00:01:37.549 And surrounded by eager hearts 00:01:37.549 --> 00:01:42.549 Tears of joy and smiles of happiness are scattered around him 00:01:42.549 --> 00:01:45.900 But Uqba Ibn Amer Al-Juhani 00:01:45.900 --> 00:01:49.900 He did not witness the procession of the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him 00:01:49.900 --> 00:01:53.900 He was not happy to be received by the recipients 00:01:53.900 --> 00:01:58.000 This is because he had gone out to the desert with his spoils 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.000 To take care of her there 00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:05.000 After the anger became intense for her and she feared death 00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.000 It is all the debris of the world he has 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:12.000 But the joy that overwhelmed Medina 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:16.000 It soon spread to its valleys, near and far 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:20.000 It shone in every good spot 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:24.000 Its tidings reached Uqba Ibn Amer Al-Juhani 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.000 He is with his spoils far away in the desert 00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.000 Let us leave the talking to Uqba Ibn Amer 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:35.000 To tell us the story of his meeting with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:37.099 Uqba said 00:02:37.099 --> 00:02:41.159 The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, came to Medina 00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:44.159 And I have my spoils to take care of 00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:47.159 As soon as she heard the news of his arrival 00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:51.159 Until I left her and went to him, without hesitating about anything 00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:53.189 When I met him, I said: 00:02:53.189 --> 00:02:56.189 Pledge allegiance to me, O Messenger of God 00:02:56.189 --> 00:02:58.259 He said who are you? 00:02:58.259 --> 00:03:02.319 I said Uqba Ibn Aamer Al-Juhani 00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:05.319 He said, "Whatever I like to you." 00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:07.319 You pledged allegiance to me, a Bedouin pledge of allegiance 00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.319 Or the sale of immigration 00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:11.319 I said, “Rather, a pledge of emigration.” 00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:15.319 So the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, pledged allegiance to me 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:18.319 On what he pledged allegiance to the immigrants 00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:20.319 I stayed with him one night 00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:22.319 Then I went to my sheep 00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:25.379 There were 12 men who converted to Islam 00:03:25.379 --> 00:03:27.379 We live far from the city 00:03:27.379 --> 00:03:30.379 Let us graze our sheep in its valleys 00:03:30.379 --> 00:03:32.419 We said to each other 00:03:32.419 --> 00:03:35.419 There is no good in us if we do not provide 00:03:35.419 --> 00:03:38.419 On the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:03:38.419 --> 00:03:40.419 Day after day 00:03:40.419 --> 00:03:42.419 To give us understanding of our religion 00:03:42.419 --> 00:03:45.419 We hear what is revealed to him from heaven 00:03:45.419 --> 00:03:48.419 Let each one of us go to Yathrib every day 00:03:48.419 --> 00:03:50.419 And let him leave his bottle for us 00:03:50.419 --> 00:03:52.479 So we take care of it for him 00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:53.479 So I said 00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:56.479 Go to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:58.479 One after another 00:03:58.479 --> 00:04:01.479 And let the one who goes away leave his sheep to me 00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:04.479 Because I was very sorry for my spoils 00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:06.479 Than to leave it to anyone 00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:09.580 Then my friends started to become one of them 00:04:09.580 --> 00:04:13.580 After another on the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:04:13.580 --> 00:04:16.579 And he leaves his sheep for me to take care of for him 00:04:16.579 --> 00:04:18.579 So if he comes 00:04:18.579 --> 00:04:20.579 I heard from them 00:04:20.579 --> 00:04:22.579 I learned jurisprudence from them 00:04:22.579 --> 00:04:26.579 But I soon came back to myself and said: 00:04:26.579 --> 00:04:27.579 Woe to you! 00:04:27.579 --> 00:04:31.610 Secure for spoils that neither fatten nor enrich 00:04:31.610 --> 00:04:36.610 You miss the company of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:04:36.610 --> 00:04:39.610 And taking from him orally, without intermediary 00:04:39.610 --> 00:04:42.610 Then I gave up my swag 00:04:42.610 --> 00:04:45.610 I went to the city to stay in the mosque 00:04:45.610 --> 00:04:49.829 Next to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:04:49.829 --> 00:04:53.829 Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani had never thought of it 00:04:53.829 --> 00:04:57.829 When he made this decisive and resolute decision 00:04:57.829 --> 00:05:03.829 After a decade, he would become one of the greatest scholars of the Companions 00:05:03.829 --> 00:05:05.829 And a reader from the elders of readers 00:05:05.829 --> 00:05:09.829 And a prominent leader of the conquest 00:05:09.829 --> 00:05:12.829 One of the numbered rulers of Islam 00:05:12.829 --> 00:05:15.829 He wasn't just imagining 00:05:15.829 --> 00:05:18.829 He gives away his spoils 00:05:18.829 --> 00:05:20.829 He goes to God and His Messenger 00:05:20.829 --> 00:05:26.829 He will be the vanguard of the army that conquers the nation of the world, Damascus 00:05:26.829 --> 00:05:31.829 He takes a home for himself among its gardens and looks at Thomas’ door 00:05:31.829 --> 00:05:34.930 It was not just a vision 00:05:34.930 --> 00:05:40.930 That he would be one of the leaders who would open the Green Emerald of the Universe 00:05:40.930 --> 00:05:41.930 Egypt 00:05:41.930 --> 00:05:44.930 And he will become its ruler 00:05:44.930 --> 00:05:48.930 He plans for himself a house at the foot of Mount Mokattam 00:05:48.930 --> 00:05:53.930 These are all matters hidden in the conscience of the unseen 00:05:53.930 --> 00:05:55.930 Only God knows it 00:05:55.930 --> 00:06:01.220 Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani joined the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:06:01.220 --> 00:06:04.220 The shadow is necessary for its owner 00:06:04.220 --> 00:06:07.220 He used to take the reins of his mule wherever he went 00:06:07.220 --> 00:06:10.220 It is in his hands that we move 00:06:10.220 --> 00:06:15.220 The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, often followed him behind him 00:06:15.220 --> 00:06:18.220 Until he was called Bardif, the Messenger of God 00:06:18.220 --> 00:06:22.220 Perhaps the Holy Prophet descended upon him from his mule 00:06:22.220 --> 00:06:24.220 To be the one riding 00:06:24.220 --> 00:06:28.220 The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, is the one who walks 00:06:28.220 --> 00:06:30.410 An obstacle occurred, he said 00:06:30.410 --> 00:06:37.410 I was taking the reins of the mule of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, in some of the forests of Medina 00:06:37.410 --> 00:06:38.410 He said to me 00:06:38.410 --> 00:06:41.410 O obstacle, do not ride 00:06:41.410 --> 00:06:43.410 I understood that I should say no 00:06:43.410 --> 00:06:47.410 But I feared that this would be a disobedience to the Messenger of God 00:06:47.410 --> 00:06:50.410 I said yes, O Prophet of God 00:06:50.410 --> 00:06:53.410 So the Messenger got off his mule and I mounted 00:06:53.410 --> 00:06:55.410 In compliance with his order 00:06:55.410 --> 00:06:57.410 And make him walk 00:06:57.410 --> 00:07:00.410 Then she soon left it 00:07:00.410 --> 00:07:03.410 The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, rode 00:07:03.410 --> 00:07:05.410 Then he told me 00:07:05.410 --> 00:07:06.410 Oh obstacle 00:07:06.410 --> 00:07:10.410 Shall I not teach you two surahs the likes of which have never been seen? 00:07:10.410 --> 00:07:12.540 I said, “Yes, O Messenger of God.” 00:07:12.540 --> 00:07:14.600 So read to me 00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:16.600 Say I seek refuge in the Lord of creation 00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:18.600 And say, I seek refuge in the Lord of people 00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:20.600 Then the prayer was held 00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:23.600 So he went forward and prayed with them 00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:24.600 And he said 00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:27.600 Read them whenever you sleep and whenever you get up 00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:29.600 Uqba said 00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:32.600 I still read them, and my life continues 00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:36.759 He made Uqba Ibn Aamir Al-Juhani 00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:38.759 His concern is two things 00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:40.759 Knowledge and jihad 00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:43.759 He went to them with his soul and body 00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:45.759 He gave them of himself 00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:47.759 The most generous and generous allowance 00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:49.860 As for the field of science 00:07:49.860 --> 00:07:51.860 He became tired of Manahil 00:07:51.860 --> 00:07:53.860 The Messenger of God is sweet wealth 00:07:53.860 --> 00:07:56.860 Until tomorrow it is recited and updated 00:07:56.860 --> 00:07:58.860 A hypothetical jurist 00:07:58.860 --> 00:08:01.860 An eloquent writer and poet 00:08:01.860 --> 00:08:04.860 He was one of the best people to recite the Qur’an 00:08:04.860 --> 00:08:07.860 And when night fell 00:08:07.860 --> 00:08:09.860 And the universe calmed down 00:08:09.860 --> 00:08:11.860 Turn to the Book of God 00:08:11.860 --> 00:08:14.860 He recites from His clear verses 00:08:14.860 --> 00:08:18.860 So the hearts of the honorable companions listened to his recitation 00:08:18.860 --> 00:08:20.860 And their hearts submit to Him 00:08:20.860 --> 00:08:24.860 Their eyes overflow with tears from the fear of God 00:08:24.860 --> 00:08:27.860 Omar bin Al-Khattab invited him one day 00:08:27.860 --> 00:08:28.860 And he said 00:08:28.860 --> 00:08:31.860 Show me something from the Book of God, O Uqba 00:08:31.860 --> 00:08:33.860 And he said 00:08:33.860 --> 00:08:35.860 Listen, O Commander of the Faithful 00:08:35.860 --> 00:08:39.860 Then he started reciting to him whatever verses of the Wise Remembrance he could 00:08:39.860 --> 00:08:41.860 Omar is crying 00:08:41.860 --> 00:08:44.860 Until tears wet his beard 00:08:44.860 --> 00:08:48.860 Uqba left a Qur’an written in his handwriting 00:08:48.860 --> 00:08:52.860 This Qur’an remained until a long time ago 00:08:52.860 --> 00:08:54.860 Located in Egypt 00:08:54.860 --> 00:08:57.860 In the mosque known as Uqba bin Amer Mosque 00:08:57.860 --> 00:08:59.860 It came at the end 00:08:59.860 --> 00:09:02.860 Written by Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani 00:09:02.860 --> 00:09:08.950 This Qur’an of Uqba is one of the oldest Qur’an found on earth 00:09:08.950 --> 00:09:12.950 But it lost, among other things, our precious heritage 00:09:12.950 --> 00:09:15.950 We are ignorant of it 00:09:15.950 --> 00:09:18.080 As for the field of jihad 00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:22.080 It is enough for us to know that Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani 00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:28.080 He witnessed with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, Uhud and the battles that followed 00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:32.080 And he was one of the bravest commandos 00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:36.080 Those who endured the day of the conquest of Damascus were the most dreadful and greatest calamity 00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:41.080 Abu Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah rewarded him for his good performance 00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:46.080 That he sent him a good tidings to Omar bin Al-Khattab in Medina to give him good news of the conquest 00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:49.080 He stayed for eight days and nights 00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.080 From Friday to Friday 00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:55.080 It feeds traffic without interruption 00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:58.080 Al-Farouq even heralded the great conquest 00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:03.080 Then he was one of the leaders of the Muslim armies that conquered Egypt 00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:07.080 So the Commander of the Faithful rewarded him, Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan 00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:11.080 By making him governor for three years 00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:14.080 Then he directed him to invade the island of Rhodes 00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:16.080 In the Mediterranean Sea 00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:21.080 Uqba bin Aamir al-Juhani was very passionate about jihad 00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:24.080 He was aware of the hadith of jihad in his heart 00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:27.080 He specialized in narrating it to Muslims 00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:30.080 And he was always good at shooting 00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:35.179 Even if he wanted to be distracted, he would be distracted by shooting 00:10:35.179 --> 00:10:39.179 When Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani fell ill, he died 00:10:39.179 --> 00:10:40.179 He is in Egypt 00:10:40.179 --> 00:10:43.179 He gathered his sons and advised them 00:10:43.179 --> 00:10:48.179 My son, I forbid you to do three things, so keep them 00:10:48.179 --> 00:10:52.179 Do not accept talk about the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace 00:10:52.179 --> 00:10:54.179 Except for those who trust him 00:10:54.179 --> 00:10:58.179 And do not borrow, even if you wear the cloak 00:10:58.179 --> 00:11:00.179 And do not write poetry 00:11:00.179 --> 00:11:03.179 So distract your hearts from the Qur’an with it 00:11:03.179 --> 00:11:06.299 When death overtook him 00:11:06.299 --> 00:11:08.299 They buried him at the foot of Mokattam 00:11:08.299 --> 00:11:11.299 Then they went to his estate to search it 00:11:11.299 --> 00:11:15.299 So he left behind seventy-few bows 00:11:15.299 --> 00:11:18.299 With each bow a horn and arrows 00:11:18.299 --> 00:11:22.429 He advised them to work for the sake of God 00:11:22.429 --> 00:11:28.429 May God bless the face of the reader, the scholar and ghazi Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani 00:11:28.429 --> 00:11:32.429 And reward him on behalf of Islam and Muslims with the best reward
