00:00:00.020 --> 00:00:04.019
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:04.019 --> 00:00:10.019
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

00:00:10.019 --> 00:00:17.769
A Concise Summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).

00:00:17.769 --> 00:00:23.120
Authored by Sheikh Musa bin Rashid al-Azimi.

00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:25.120
May Allah preserve him.

00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:32.060
The grief of the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:00:32.060 --> 00:00:36.060
over the martyrs of Bi'r Ma'unah.

00:00:36.060 --> 00:00:39.829
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, received

00:00:39.829 --> 00:00:42.829
the news of the tragedy of Bi'r Ma'unah,

00:00:42.829 --> 00:00:46.829
and the companions of the expedition of al-Raji' on the same day.

00:00:46.829 --> 00:00:50.829
He grieved for them intensely,

00:00:50.829 --> 00:00:53.829
and began to supplicate against those who had betrayed his companions

00:00:53.829 --> 00:00:56.829
for a full month in every prayer.

00:00:56.829 --> 00:01:00.020
Imam Muslim narrated in his Sahih

00:01:00.020 --> 00:01:04.019
on the authority of Anas Ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:01:04.019 --> 00:01:07.019
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said

00:01:07.019 --> 00:01:09.019
to his companions:

00:01:09.019 --> 00:01:11.019
"Your brothers have been killed,

00:01:11.019 --> 00:01:13.019
and they said:

00:01:13.019 --> 00:01:16.019
'O Allah, convey to our Prophet on our behalf

00:01:16.019 --> 00:01:18.019
that we have met You,

00:01:18.019 --> 00:01:21.019
so we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us.'"

00:01:21.019 --> 00:01:24.090
The two Sheikhs (al-Bukhari and Muslim) narrated in their Sahihs,

00:01:24.090 --> 00:01:27.090
as did Imam Ahmad in his Musnad,

00:01:27.090 --> 00:01:29.090
with the wording belonging to Ahmad,

00:01:29.090 --> 00:01:32.090
on the authority of Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:01:32.090 --> 00:01:36.090
"I have never seen the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:01:36.090 --> 00:01:38.090
grieve over anything at all

00:01:38.090 --> 00:01:41.090
as he grieved over the companions of Bi'r Ma'unah,

00:01:41.090 --> 00:01:44.090
the companions of the expedition of al-Mundhir Ibn 'Amr."

00:01:44.090 --> 00:01:48.090
He spent a month supplicating against those who had harmed them

00:01:48.090 --> 00:01:50.090
during the Qunut of the morning prayer,

00:01:50.090 --> 00:01:53.090
calling against the tribes of Ri'l, Dhakwan,

00:01:53.090 --> 00:01:55.090
'Usayya, and Lihyan,

00:01:55.090 --> 00:01:58.090
who were from the tribe of Banu Sulaym.

00:01:58.090 --> 00:02:01.219
Imam Ahmad narrated in his Musnad,

00:02:01.219 --> 00:02:04.219
as did Abu Dawud and al-Hakim with a sound chain of narration,

00:02:04.219 --> 00:02:08.219
on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said:

00:02:08.219 --> 00:02:11.219
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, performed Qunut

00:02:11.219 --> 00:02:13.219
for a consecutive month

00:02:13.219 --> 00:02:15.219
in the Dhuhr, 'Asr,

00:02:15.219 --> 00:02:18.219
Maghrib, 'Isha', and Fajr prayers,

00:02:18.219 --> 00:02:20.219
at the end of every prayer,

00:02:20.219 --> 00:02:23.219
when he would say, "Allah hears those who praise Him,"

00:02:23.219 --> 00:02:25.219
from the final rak'ah,

00:02:25.219 --> 00:02:27.219
supplicating against them,

00:02:27.219 --> 00:02:30.219
against a clan of Banu Sulaym,

00:02:30.219 --> 00:02:33.219
against Ri'l, Dhakwan, and 'Usayya,

00:02:33.219 --> 00:02:35.219
while those behind him would say 'Amin.'

00:02:35.219 --> 00:02:39.219
He had sent them to invite them to Islam,

00:02:39.219 --> 00:02:41.219
but they killed them.

00:02:41.219 --> 00:02:44.219
The two Sheikhs narrated in their Sahihs

00:02:44.219 --> 00:02:47.219
on the authority of Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:02:47.219 --> 00:02:49.219
Allah, the Almighty, revealed

00:02:49.219 --> 00:02:52.219
regarding those killed at Bi'r Ma'unah

00:02:52.219 --> 00:02:54.219
a Qur'anic verse that we recited,

00:02:54.219 --> 00:02:56.219
until it was later abrogated:

00:02:56.219 --> 00:02:59.219
"Inform our people that we have met our Lord,

00:02:59.219 --> 00:03:02.219
so He is pleased with us, and we are pleased with Him."

00:03:02.219 --> 00:03:10.900
The return of 'Amr Ibn Umayya al-Damri, may Allah be pleased with him,

00:03:10.900 --> 00:03:13.419
to Medina.

00:03:13.419 --> 00:03:17.419
'Amr Ibn Umayya al-Damri, may Allah be pleased with him, was taken captive.

00:03:17.419 --> 00:03:20.419
When they learned he was from the tribe of Mudar,

00:03:20.419 --> 00:03:23.449
they released him for a strange reason.

00:03:23.449 --> 00:03:25.449
Ibn Ishaq said:

00:03:25.449 --> 00:03:28.449
They took 'Amr Ibn Umayya as a captive,

00:03:28.449 --> 00:03:31.449
and when he informed them that he was from Mudar,

00:03:31.449 --> 00:03:34.449
'Amir Ibn al-Tufayl released him,

00:03:34.449 --> 00:03:36.449
cut his forelock,

00:03:36.449 --> 00:03:38.449
and freed him as an act of expiation

00:03:38.449 --> 00:03:43.819
for an oath his mother had made.

00:03:43.819 --> 00:03:47.710
The killing of the 'Amiri men.

00:03:47.710 --> 00:03:50.710
'Amr Ibn Umayya al-Damri, may Allah be pleased with him, returned

00:03:50.710 --> 00:03:52.710
to Medina.

00:03:52.710 --> 00:03:55.710
When he reached al-Qarqara,

00:03:55.710 --> 00:03:58.710
two men from Banu 'Amir approached,

00:03:58.710 --> 00:04:04.710
the tribe of those who had betrayed the reciter-companions, may Allah be pleased with them.

00:04:04.710 --> 00:04:08.810
They rested with him in the shade where he was.

00:04:08.810 --> 00:04:15.810
The 'Amiri men had a treaty and protection from the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:04:15.810 --> 00:04:19.839
which 'Amr Ibn Umayya, may Allah be pleased with him, did not know about.

00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:21.839
He had asked them when they arrived:

00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:23.839
"Who are you?"

00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:26.839
They replied: "From Banu 'Amir."

00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:31.839
He waited until they fell asleep, then killed them,

00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:36.899
believing he had taken his revenge against Banu 'Amir through them.

00:04:36.899 --> 00:04:43.899
When 'Amr Ibn Umayya, may Allah be pleased with him, came to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:04:43.899 --> 00:04:46.899
he told him the news of his companions,

00:04:46.899 --> 00:04:50.899
and told him of his killing the two men from Banu 'Amir.

00:04:50.899 --> 00:04:54.899
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said:

00:04:54.899 --> 00:05:00.000
"You have killed two men for whom I must pay blood money."

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.000
The killing of these two men by 'Amr Ibn Umayya al-Damri, may Allah be pleased with him,

00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:10.000
and the Prophet's, peace be upon him, gathering of their blood money,

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:15.000
became a cause for the Battle of Banu al-Nadir, as mentioned by Ibn Ishaq.

00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:20.180
A Concise Summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).

00:05:20.180 --> 00:05:26.180
If the longing of the worlds for some is long,

00:05:26.180 --> 00:05:33.250
then the longing for you has no fathomable extent.

00:05:33.250 --> 00:05:39.819
May Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,

00:05:39.819 --> 00:05:49.040
and as long as lips move with the remainder of the remembrance.
