1
00:00:00,850 --> 00:00:04,799
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:11,720
The life of the salaf between word and deed.

3
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:13,720
The women of the salaf.

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:18,710
On the authority of Anas Ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

5
00:00:18,710 --> 00:00:23,710
A son of Abu Talha passed away, born to Umm Sulaym, may Allah be pleased with her.

6
00:00:23,710 --> 00:00:27,710
He said: The child died in the inner room.

7
00:00:27,710 --> 00:00:29,210
She covered him.

8
00:00:29,210 --> 00:00:32,710
Then she stood up and prepared breakfast for Abu Talha.

9
00:00:33,210 --> 00:00:36,210
Just as she would prepare it for him every night.

10
00:00:36,210 --> 00:00:39,299
Abu Talha entered and said to her:

11
00:00:39,299 --> 00:00:41,299
How is the boy?

12
00:00:41,299 --> 00:00:42,299
She replied:

13
00:00:42,299 --> 00:00:44,299
He is in the best of states.

14
00:00:44,299 --> 00:00:46,340
He praised Allah.

15
00:00:46,340 --> 00:00:50,340
Then she stood up and brought breakfast to Abu Talha.

16
00:00:50,340 --> 00:00:54,340
Then she attended to what women attend to.

17
00:00:54,340 --> 00:00:57,399
Abu Talha fulfilled his needs with his wife.

18
00:00:57,399 --> 00:00:59,399
When the time of the pre-dawn (sahar) arrived,

19
00:00:59,399 --> 00:01:00,399
She said:

20
00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:02,399
O Abu Talha,

21
00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:04,400
Have you not seen the family of so-and-so?

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,900
They borrowed something and enjoyed it.

23
00:01:07,900 --> 00:01:09,900
Then when it was requested back from them,

24
00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:11,900
It was difficult for them.

25
00:01:11,900 --> 00:01:12,900
He said:

26
00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:14,900
They were not fair.

27
00:01:14,900 --> 00:01:15,900
She said:

28
00:01:15,900 --> 00:01:19,900
Indeed, your son was a loan from Allah, the Almighty and Majestic.

29
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:23,400
And Allah, the Exalted, has taken him back.

30
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,459
He praised Allah and said: "To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return."

31
00:01:26,459 --> 00:01:30,959
Then he went in the morning to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.

32
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,959
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to him:

33
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,959
O Abu Talha,

34
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,120
May Allah bless you both in your night.

35
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,120
She then became pregnant with Abdullah Ibn Abi Talha.

36
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:50,700
On the authority of Isma'il Ibn Muhammad Ibn Sa'd Ibn Abi Waqqas, may Allah have mercy on him, who said:

37
00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:56,760
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, passed by a woman from the Banu Dinar,

38
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:04,760
Whose husband, brother, and father had been killed alongside the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, at Uhud.

39
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,760
When they brought her the news of their deaths, she said:

40
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,759
What did the Messenger of Allah do?

41
00:02:09,759 --> 00:02:10,759
They said:

42
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:13,759
Well, O mother of so-and-so.

43
00:02:13,759 --> 00:02:16,759
He is, by the praise of Allah, as you would wish.

44
00:02:16,759 --> 00:02:17,759
She said:

45
00:02:17,759 --> 00:02:20,759
Show him to me so that I may look at him.

46
00:02:20,759 --> 00:02:22,759
He was pointed out to her.

47
00:02:22,759 --> 00:02:25,759
When she saw him, she said:

48
00:02:25,759 --> 00:02:28,759
Every calamity after you is trivial.

49
00:02:28,759 --> 00:02:32,340
On the authority of 'Ata' Ibn Abi Rabah, who said:

50
00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:35,340
Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said to me:

51
00:02:35,340 --> 00:02:39,340
Shall I show you a woman from the people of Paradise?

52
00:02:39,340 --> 00:02:41,340
I said: Yes.

53
00:02:41,340 --> 00:02:42,340
He said:

54
00:02:42,340 --> 00:02:44,340
This black woman.

55
00:02:44,340 --> 00:02:49,340
She came to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and said:

56
00:02:49,340 --> 00:02:52,340
I suffer from seizures and I become uncovered,

57
00:02:52,340 --> 00:02:54,340
So pray to Allah for me.

58
00:02:54,340 --> 00:02:55,340
He said:

59
00:02:55,340 --> 00:02:58,340
If you wish, be patient and you shall have Paradise,

60
00:02:58,340 --> 00:03:01,340
And if you wish, I will pray that He heals you.

61
00:03:01,340 --> 00:03:02,370
She said:

62
00:03:02,370 --> 00:03:03,370
I will be patient,

63
00:03:03,370 --> 00:03:07,370
But pray to Allah that I do not become uncovered.

64
00:03:07,370 --> 00:03:09,370
So he prayed for her.

65
00:03:09,370 --> 00:03:12,979
On the authority of Ibrahim Ibn 'Uqbah, who said:

66
00:03:12,979 --> 00:03:14,979
I heard Amat Khalid,

67
00:03:14,979 --> 00:03:18,979
The daughter of Khalid Ibn Sa'id Ibn al-'As, may Allah be pleased with her,

68
00:03:18,979 --> 00:03:21,979
Saying to her women at night:

69
00:03:21,979 --> 00:03:24,979
We have untied the knots of Shaytan;

70
00:03:24,979 --> 00:03:28,330
This is not a time for sleep.

71
00:03:28,330 --> 00:03:30,330
On the authority of Thabit al-Bunani:

72
00:03:30,330 --> 00:03:34,330
That Silah Ibn Ashyam was in a battle,

73
00:03:34,330 --> 00:03:36,330
And with him was a son of his.

74
00:03:36,330 --> 00:03:37,330
He said:

75
00:03:37,330 --> 00:03:38,330
O my son,

76
00:03:38,330 --> 00:03:42,330
Go forward and fight until I count you among the martyrs.

77
00:03:42,330 --> 00:03:46,330
He went forward and fought until he was killed, may Allah have mercy on him.

78
00:03:46,330 --> 00:03:49,360
Then he went forward and was killed.

79
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,360
The women gathered at the home of his wife,

80
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,360
Mu'adhah al-'Adawiyyah, may Allah have mercy on her.

81
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,360
She said: Welcome.

82
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,360
If you have come to congratulate me,

83
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,360
Then welcome to you.

84
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,360
But if you have come for anything else,

85
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,780
Then go back.

86
00:04:07,780 --> 00:04:11,780
On the authority of Juwayriyah Bint Asma', may Allah have mercy on her, who said:

87
00:04:11,780 --> 00:04:17,779
Three brothers from the Banu Qati'ah were present at the day of Tustar,

88
00:04:17,779 --> 00:04:19,810
And they were martyred.

89
00:04:19,810 --> 00:04:23,810
Their mother went out one day to the market for some business,

90
00:04:23,810 --> 00:04:27,810
And she met a man who had been present at the battle of Tustar.

91
00:04:27,810 --> 00:04:28,810
She recognized him,

92
00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:31,810
And asked him about her sons.

93
00:04:31,810 --> 00:04:32,810
He said:

94
00:04:32,810 --> 00:04:34,810
They were martyred.

95
00:04:34,810 --> 00:04:35,810
She said:

96
00:04:35,810 --> 00:04:38,810
Were they advancing or retreating?

97
00:04:38,810 --> 00:04:39,810
He said:

98
00:04:39,810 --> 00:04:41,810
Advancing.

99
00:04:41,810 --> 00:04:42,810
She said:

100
00:04:42,810 --> 00:04:44,810
Praise be to Allah.

101
00:04:44,810 --> 00:04:47,810
They have attained victory and protected the honor,

102
00:04:47,810 --> 00:04:50,810
By my own soul, my father, and my mother.

103
00:04:50,810 --> 00:04:55,129
On the authority of al-Sari Ibn Bukayr, may Allah have mercy on him, who said:

104
00:04:55,129 --> 00:05:01,629
I witnessed the young women of the neighborhood standing in prayer at night.

105
00:05:01,629 --> 00:05:03,629
The children of the salaf.

106
00:05:03,629 --> 00:05:08,879
On the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

107
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:13,879
'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, used to bring me in with the elders of Badr.

108
00:05:13,879 --> 00:05:15,879
Some of them said:

109
00:05:15,879 --> 00:05:18,879
Why do you bring this youth in with us,

110
00:05:18,879 --> 00:05:20,879
When we have sons like him?

111
00:05:20,879 --> 00:05:21,879
He said:

112
00:05:21,879 --> 00:05:24,879
He is of whom you know.

113
00:05:24,879 --> 00:05:25,879
He said:

114
00:05:25,879 --> 00:05:29,879
One day he called them and called me with them,

115
00:05:29,879 --> 00:05:32,879
And I did not see him call me on that day

116
00:05:32,879 --> 00:05:34,879
Except to show them my status.

117
00:05:34,879 --> 00:05:35,879
He said:

118
00:05:35,879 --> 00:05:37,879
What do you say

119
00:05:37,879 --> 00:05:41,879
“When Allah's succour and the triumph cometh” (110:1)

120
00:05:41,879 --> 00:05:43,910
Until he finished the Surah.

121
00:05:43,910 --> 00:05:45,910
Some of them said:

122
00:05:45,910 --> 00:05:48,910
We are commanded to praise Allah and seek His forgiveness

123
00:05:48,910 --> 00:05:52,910
When the victory of Allah comes and He grants us conquest.

124
00:05:52,910 --> 00:05:54,910
Some of them said:

125
00:05:54,910 --> 00:05:55,910
We do not know.

126
00:05:55,910 --> 00:05:58,910
And some of them said nothing.

127
00:05:58,910 --> 00:05:59,910
Then he said to me:

128
00:05:59,910 --> 00:06:02,910
O Ibn 'Abbas, do you say the same?

129
00:06:02,910 --> 00:06:04,910
I said: No.

130
00:06:04,910 --> 00:06:05,910
He said:

131
00:06:05,910 --> 00:06:07,910
Then what do you say?

132
00:06:07,910 --> 00:06:08,910
I said:

133
00:06:08,910 --> 00:06:12,910
It is the end of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

134
00:06:12,910 --> 00:06:14,910
Which Allah made known to him.

135
00:06:14,910 --> 00:06:17,910
"When the victory of Allah has come and the conquest,"

136
00:06:17,910 --> 00:06:18,910
The conquest of Makkah,

137
00:06:18,910 --> 00:06:21,910
That is the sign of your end.

138
00:06:21,910 --> 00:06:24,910
“Then hymn the praises of thy Lord, and seek forgiveness of Him. Lo! He is ever ready to show mercy.” (110:3)

139
00:06:24,910 --> 00:06:27,939
Indeed, He is ever Accepting of repentance.

140
00:06:27,939 --> 00:06:28,939
'Umar said:

141
00:06:28,939 --> 00:06:33,389
I know nothing of it other than what you know.

142
00:06:33,389 --> 00:06:35,389
Aslam said:

143
00:06:35,389 --> 00:06:39,389
While I was with 'Umar Ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him,

144
00:06:39,389 --> 00:06:41,389
And he was patrolling Madinah,

145
00:06:41,389 --> 00:06:42,389
He became tired,

146
00:06:42,389 --> 00:06:46,389
So he leaned against a wall in the middle of the night.

147
00:06:46,389 --> 00:06:49,389
Suddenly, a woman was saying to her daughter:

148
00:06:49,389 --> 00:06:53,389
O my daughter, get up to that milk

149
00:06:53,389 --> 00:06:55,389
And mix it with water.

150
00:06:55,389 --> 00:06:57,389
She said to her:

151
00:06:57,389 --> 00:06:58,389
O mother,

152
00:06:58,389 --> 00:07:03,389
Do you not know what the decree of the Commander of the Faithful was today?

153
00:07:03,389 --> 00:07:04,389
She said:

154
00:07:04,389 --> 00:07:07,389
And what was his decree, O my daughter?

155
00:07:07,389 --> 00:07:09,449
She said:

156
00:07:09,449 --> 00:07:12,449
He ordered his announcer to proclaim:

157
00:07:12,449 --> 00:07:15,519
Milk shall not be mixed with water.

158
00:07:15,519 --> 00:07:17,519
She said to her:

159
00:07:17,519 --> 00:07:18,519
O my daughter,

160
00:07:18,519 --> 00:07:22,519
Get up to that milk and mix it with water,

161
00:07:22,519 --> 00:07:27,579
For you are in a place where neither 'Umar nor 'Umar's announcer can see you.

162
00:07:27,579 --> 00:07:30,579
The young girl said to her mother:

163
00:07:30,579 --> 00:07:32,579
O mother,

164
00:07:32,579 --> 00:07:35,579
By Allah, I would not obey him in public

165
00:07:35,579 --> 00:07:38,189
And disobey him in private.

166
00:07:38,189 --> 00:07:42,189
'Umar Ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, passed by some boys,

167
00:07:42,189 --> 00:07:46,189
Among them was Abdullah Ibn al-Zubayr, may Allah be pleased with him.

168
00:07:46,189 --> 00:07:48,189
They fled, but he stood still.

169
00:07:48,189 --> 00:07:50,189
'Umar said to him:

170
00:07:50,189 --> 00:07:53,189
Why did you not flee with your companions?

171
00:07:53,189 --> 00:07:54,189
He said:

172
00:07:54,189 --> 00:07:56,189
O Commander of the Faithful,

173
00:07:56,189 --> 00:07:59,189
I have committed no crime to fear you,

174
00:07:59,189 --> 00:08:03,670
And the road was not narrow for me to make space for you.

175
00:08:03,670 --> 00:08:08,759
A delegation came to 'Umar Ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz, may Allah have mercy on him, from Iraq.

176
00:08:08,759 --> 00:08:13,759
He looked at a young man among them who was preparing to speak.

177
00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:14,759
'Umar said:

178
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:15,759
Let the elders speak.

179
00:08:15,759 --> 00:08:17,759
The youth said:

180
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:19,759
O Commander of the Faithful,

181
00:08:19,759 --> 00:08:22,759
Matters are not determined by age.

182
00:08:22,759 --> 00:08:24,759
If it were so,

183
00:08:24,759 --> 00:08:27,759
There would be among the Muslims those who are older than you.

184
00:08:27,759 --> 00:08:28,759
He said:

185
00:08:28,759 --> 00:08:29,759
You have spoken the truth.

186
00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:32,820
So speak.

187
00:08:32,820 --> 00:08:35,269
The life of the salaf

188
00:08:35,269 --> 00:08:37,269
Between word and deed.
