In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Mawaddah Association is pleased
To present to you pictures from the lives of the Companions
Id al-Rahman Rafah al-Pasha
May God have mercy on him
Bilal bin Rabah, may God be pleased with him
Bilal bin Rabah, the muezzin of the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
One of the most wonderful biography of the struggle for the sake of the faith
It is a story that time never tires of repeating
The call to prayer is never satisfied with the magic of its anthem
Bilal was born in Sarat about 43 years before the Hijra
His father was called Rabaha
As for his mother, her name was Hamama
She is a black slave girl from Mecca
That is why some people called him Ibn al-Sawda
Bilal grew up in Umm Al-Qura
It was owned by orphans from Bani Abd al-Dar
Or their father followed them to Umayyah bin Khalaf
One of the heads of disbelief
When Mecca shone with the lights of the new religion
The Greatest Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, chanted
With the word monotheism
Bilal was one of the first to convert to Islam
He converted to Islam and there was no Muslim on the face of the earth
Except for a few of the first two
At their head is Khadija bint Khuwaylid
Mother of believers
And Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq
And Ali bin Abi Talib
And Ammar bin Yasser
And his mother is Sumaya
And Suhaib Al-Rumi
And Al-Miqdad bin Al-Aswad
Bilal was harmed by the polytheists
Unless he found it
He suffered from their cruelty and brutality
And harden their hearts
Unless someone else suffers from it
He and the oppressed people with him were patient
To be tested for the sake of God
And no one was patient
It belonged to Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq
And Ali bin Abi Talib
Nervousness prevents them
And people protect them
As for those who are weak, male and female slaves
The Quraysh subjected them to severe abuse
She wanted to make an example of them
An example to whomever he speaks to himself
By rejecting their gods and following Muhammad
He confronted the torture of these people
A group of the most cruel infidels of Quraysh
And the hardest hearted
Abu Jahl failed
May God disgrace him with his sin
He stood over her cursing and slandering
Then he stabbed her with his spear
It entered from her lower abdomen
And it came out of her back
She was the first martyr in Islam
As for the others, she is her brothers in God
And at their head was Bilal bin Rabah
The Quraysh tortured them for a long time
When the sun was in the middle, they would appear to the sky
The sands of Mecca burned with redness
They take off their clothes
They wear iron armor
They melt them with the blazing rays of the sun
They lash their backs with whips
They order them to curse Muhammad
When the torture became severe, they were subjected to severe torture
Their energies could not bear it
They respond to what they want from them
Their hearts are attached to God and His Messenger
Except Bilal, may God be pleased with him
His soul was easy for him in the name of God Almighty
He was the one who tortured him
Umayyah bin Khalaf and his companions
They were whipping his back
Someone says, someone
They put rocks on his chest
Someone calls someone
They attack him harshly
Someone shouted
They used to carry him in remembrance of God and glory
So he remembers God and His Messenger
And they say to him, “Say as we say.”
He answers them, “My tongue is not good at it.”
They will hurt him
They are trying to torture him
The mighty tyrant was Umayyah ibn Khalaf
If he gets tired of torturing him
A thick rope was tied around his neck
And I hand him over to the fools and the children
He ordered them to circumambulate the streets of Mecca with him
And to drag him into its lowest parts
It was Bilal, may God be pleased with him
He is tormented by torment for the sake of God and His Messenger
He always repeats his supreme anthem
One one one one
He never gets tired of repeating it
He can't get enough of singing it
Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him, presented it to him
Umayyah bin Khalaf must buy it from him
It is more expensive
He thinks that Abu Bakr will not take him
So he bought it from him for nine ounces of gold
Amit said to him after the deal was completed
If I refused to take it except for an ounce, I would sell it
The friend said to him
If I had refused to sell it for more than a hundred, I would have bought it
And when the friend told the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
Bilala bought it
And save him from the hands of his tormentors
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him
Company, Abu Bakr
That is, share it with me
The friend, may God be pleased with him, said to him
I freed him, O Messenger of God
And when God permitted His Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
By migrating to the city
Hajar Bilal, may God be pleased with him
In a sentence from Hagar
He, Al-Siddiq, and Amir bin Fahr came down
In one house
They all got fever
When Bilal had a fever, his fever was gone
He raised his voice
And he began to chant in his sweet voice, saying:
Don't you know if you spent the night?
With a trap and around Idhkhar and Jalil
Will I ever want their water to be a paradise?
Does it look like a mole or a parasite to me?
It is no wonder that Bilal yearns for Mecca and its people
I miss its valleys and mountains
There he tasted the sweetness of faith
There he endured torment at the side of God
There he defeated himself and Satan
Bilal settled in Yathrib, out of reach of Rish
He devoted himself to his Prophet and beloved Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
He would go out with him every morning
And it will come back with him if he returns
And he prays with him when he prays
And he will fight with him if he invades
Until it became more important to him than his shadow
When the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, built his mosque in Medina
The call to prayer was performed. Bilal was the first muezzin in Islam
When he finished the call to prayer, he would recite the call to prayer
He stood at the door of the Prophet’s house, peace and blessings be upon him
He said, “Live to prayer, live to the farmer.”
When the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, left his room
Bilal saw him coming and began to stay
Al-Najashi, King of Abyssinia, presented the gift to the Great Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
Three short spears
Of the precious things that kings own
So he kept one of them for himself
He gave Uri bin Abi Talib one
He gave Omar bin Al-Khattab one
Then he singled out his spear for Bilal
So Bilal started running with it in his hands all the days of his life
He used to carry it on the two Eids and during rain prayers
He places it in front of him if prayer is performed in a place other than the mosque
Bilal witnessed with Nabih Badr
I see with his eyes how God fulfilled His promise
And the victory of his army
The wrestler witnessed the tyrants who were torturing him
He saw Abu Jahl and Umayyah bin Khalaf
Two deaths struck by Muslim swords
Their blood drips from the spears of the tortured
When the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, entered Mecca as a conqueror
At the head of his green battalion
With him was the supplicant of heaven, Bilal bin Rabah
When he entered the Kaaba
There were only three men with him
They are Othmal bin Talha
Holder of the keys of the Holy Kaaba
And Osama bin Zaid
Love of the Messenger of God and his love
And Bilal bin Rabah
Muezzin of the Messenger of God
When the noon prayer came
Thousands of people surrounded the Great Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
Those who converted to Islam were among the infidels of Quraysh, willingly or unwillingly
They witness that big scene
Then the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, called Bilal bin Rabah
He ordered him to climb on top of the Kaaba
And to announce above it the word of monotheism
Bilal was shocked by the matter
He sent his loud voice to announce the call to prayer
Thousands of necks extended towards him, looking at him
Thousands of tongues echoed behind him in reverence
As for those in whose hearts is disease
Envy began to eat away at their hearts
And the grudge tore their hearts apart
As soon as Bilal reached the call to prayer, he said it
I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God
Until Juwayriyah bint Abi Jahl said:
By my life, God has raised your mention to you
As for prayer, we pray
But by God, we do not like killing our loved ones
Her father was killed in Badr
Khalid bin Awsid said
Praise be to God who honored my father
He did not witness this day
His father had died one day before the conquest
Al-Harith bin Hisham said
Wow
I wish I had died before I saw Bilal above the Kaaba
Al-Hakam bin Abi Al-Aas said:
This, by God, is a big mistake
To become a slave of Banu Jamh braying over this structure
Abu Sufyan bin Harb was with them
He said: As for me, I don't say anything
If I had uttered a word
These shares were transferred to Muhammad bin Abdullah
Bilal continued to recite the call to prayer to the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, throughout his life
The Holy Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, remained
He feels this voice, which God punished most severely, as it repeats “Ahad Ahad”.
When the greatest Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, moved to the highest companion
And it's time to pray
Bilal stood up to give the call to prayer to the people
The Holy Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, is lying in state and has not been buried yet
When he reached his statement
I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God
The lessons choked him
His voice got stuck in his throat
Muslims were crying
They drowned in wailing
Then he gave permission for three days
Whenever he reached his saying, “I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God,” he cried and cried
Then he asked Abu Bakr, the successor of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
To exempt him from the call to prayer
After he became unbearable
Ask his permission to go out to jihad for the sake of God
And stationed in the Levant
The friend, may God be pleased with him, hesitated to respond to his request
And permission for him to leave the city
Bilal said to him
If you bought me for yourself, hold me
Even if you have freed me for God's sake
So leave me to the one to whom you freed me
Abu Bakr said
By God, I only bought you for God
I freed you only for His sake
Bilal said
I do not give permission to anyone after the Messenger of God
Abu Bakr said
So
Bilal left Medina with the first Muslim mission
He resided in Daraya, near Damascus
He kept holding back from the call to prayer
Until Omar bin Al-Khattab came to the Levant
Bilal, may God bless him and grant him peace, met him after a long absence
Omar was very longing for him
Great respect for him
Even if he mentioned the friend in front of him, he would say:
Abu Bakr is our master
He is the one who freed our master
I mean, Bilal, may God be pleased with him
There, the Companions decided for Bilal to give the call to prayer in the presence of Al-Farouq
As soon as his voice rose to the call to prayer
Until Omar cried
The companions cried with him
Until their beards were soaked with tears
Bilal aroused their longing for the times of Medina
Watering her from the covenants
And the caller of heaven remained
He lives in the Damascus area
Until his inevitable death
His wife supported him by his side during his deathbed
She shouts
And they saddened him
And he opened his eyes every time
And he answers her by saying:
And his joy
Then he took his last breath while repeating
Tomorrow we will meet our loved ones
Muhammad and his companions
Tomorrow we will meet our loved ones
Muhammad and his companions
Abu Bakr, our master
And our master was freed
I mean, Bilal
Omar Al-Farouq, may God be pleased with him
