00:00:06.889 --> 00:00:11.310
"Magnanimous when buying..."

00:00:11.310 --> 00:00:15.710
During this military expedition,

00:00:15.710 --> 00:00:21.109
Jabir ibn 'Abd Allah (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) narrated another story to us.

00:00:21.109 --> 00:00:22.510
He said:

00:00:22.510 --> 00:00:26.109
"I went out with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)

00:00:26.109 --> 00:00:29.309
to the Expedition of Dhat al-Riqa' in Nakhl,

00:00:29.309 --> 00:00:31.710
riding a weak camel of mine.

00:00:31.910 --> 00:00:35.509
When the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) turned back

00:00:35.509 --> 00:00:37.310
from this expedition,

00:00:37.310 --> 00:00:39.710
the riding parties began passing ahead,

00:00:39.710 --> 00:00:41.509
while I kept lagging behind,

00:00:41.509 --> 00:00:45.509
until the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) caught up with me

00:00:45.509 --> 00:00:46.710
and asked,

00:00:46.710 --> 00:00:48.710
'What is the matter with you, O Jabir?'

00:00:48.710 --> 00:00:50.710
I said, 'O Messenger of Allah,

00:00:50.710 --> 00:00:53.310
this camel of mine has slowed me down.'

00:00:53.310 --> 00:00:54.909
He said, 'Make it kneel.'

00:00:54.909 --> 00:00:56.909
So I made it kneel,

00:00:56.909 --> 00:01:00.909
and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) also made his mount kneel.

00:01:00.909 --> 00:01:02.509
Then he said,

00:01:02.509 --> 00:01:05.109
'Hand me this stick in your hand,'

00:01:05.109 --> 00:01:07.709
or 'Cut a stick from a tree.'

00:01:07.709 --> 00:01:09.510
He said: So I did.

00:01:09.510 --> 00:01:13.510
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) took it

00:01:13.510 --> 00:01:16.109
and poked the camel with it a few times.

00:01:16.109 --> 00:01:17.310
Then he said,

00:01:17.310 --> 00:01:18.709
'Mount it.'

00:01:18.709 --> 00:01:20.310
He said: So I mounted it,

00:01:20.310 --> 00:01:23.310
and—by the One Who sent him with the truth!—it set off

00:01:23.310 --> 00:01:26.579
keeping pace alongside his own she-camel.

00:01:26.579 --> 00:01:27.579
He said:

00:01:27.579 --> 00:01:31.980
I began conversing with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him),

00:01:31.980 --> 00:01:33.180
and he said,

00:01:33.180 --> 00:01:36.780
'Will you sell me this camel of yours, O Jabir?'

00:01:36.780 --> 00:01:37.780
He said:

00:01:37.780 --> 00:01:39.810
'Rather, I give it to you as a gift.'

00:01:39.810 --> 00:01:41.010
He said, 'No,

00:01:41.010 --> 00:01:43.010
but sell it to me.'

00:01:43.010 --> 00:01:44.010
He said:

00:01:44.010 --> 00:01:45.810
I said, 'Then name a price for me.'

00:01:45.810 --> 00:01:49.609
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said,

00:01:49.609 --> 00:01:52.209
'I take it for one dirham.'

00:01:52.209 --> 00:01:53.609
Jabir said:

00:01:53.609 --> 00:01:54.609
'No,

00:01:54.810 --> 00:01:57.609
for you would be underpaying me, O Messenger of Allah!'

00:01:57.609 --> 00:01:59.810
He said, 'Then for two dirhams.'

00:01:59.810 --> 00:02:00.810
He said:

00:02:00.810 --> 00:02:02.209
I said, 'No.'

00:02:02.209 --> 00:02:06.810
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) kept raising the offer for me

00:02:06.810 --> 00:02:09.210
until it reached an *uqiyyah* (forty dirhams).

00:02:09.210 --> 00:02:11.409
I said, 'I am satisfied;

00:02:11.409 --> 00:02:13.810
it is yours, O Messenger of Allah.'

00:02:13.810 --> 00:02:16.409
He (peace be upon him) said,

00:02:16.409 --> 00:02:17.870
'I have bought it.'

00:02:17.870 --> 00:02:19.469
Jabir said:

00:02:19.469 --> 00:02:23.469
Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) asked,

00:02:23.469 --> 00:02:24.669
'O Jabir,

00:02:24.669 --> 00:02:26.270
have you gotten married?'

00:02:26.270 --> 00:02:27.270
He said:

00:02:27.270 --> 00:02:29.870
I said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.'

00:02:29.870 --> 00:02:30.870
He asked,

00:02:30.870 --> 00:02:33.669
'A previously married woman or a virgin?'

00:02:33.669 --> 00:02:34.669
He said:

00:02:34.669 --> 00:02:37.099
I said, 'Rather, a previously married woman.'

00:02:37.099 --> 00:02:38.300
He said,

00:02:38.300 --> 00:02:42.370
'Why not a young virgin, whom you could play with and who could play with you?'"

00:02:42.370 --> 00:02:46.370
This shows us that it is preferable to marry a virgin

00:02:46.370 --> 00:02:48.699
if that is feasible for a person.

00:02:48.699 --> 00:02:49.900
He said:

00:02:49.900 --> 00:02:51.900
"I said, 'O Messenger of Allah,

00:02:51.900 --> 00:02:54.699
my father was martyred on the day of Uhud,

00:02:54.699 --> 00:02:57.699
leaving behind seven daughters for me.

00:02:57.699 --> 00:03:00.099
So I married a mature woman

00:03:00.099 --> 00:03:03.530
who could gather them, look after them, and manage their affairs.'

00:03:03.530 --> 00:03:05.729
This demonstrates altruism,

00:03:05.729 --> 00:03:10.590
as he preferred his sisters' well-being over his own desires (may Allah be pleased with him).

00:03:10.590 --> 00:03:14.189
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to him,

00:03:14.189 --> 00:03:16.590
'You have made the right choice, Allah willing.

00:03:16.590 --> 00:03:19.189
When we reach Sirar,

00:03:19.389 --> 00:03:22.189
we shall order a slaughter-camel to be sacrificed,

00:03:22.189 --> 00:03:25.189
spend the rest of our day there,

00:03:25.189 --> 00:03:28.990
and your wife will hear of our arrival and prepare the cushions.'

00:03:28.990 --> 00:03:29.990
He said:

00:03:29.990 --> 00:03:32.590
I said, 'By Allah, O Messenger of Allah,

00:03:32.590 --> 00:03:34.590
we have no cushions!'

00:03:34.590 --> 00:03:35.590
He said,

00:03:35.590 --> 00:03:37.789
'You will soon have them;

00:03:37.789 --> 00:03:42.259
so when you arrive, act wisely.'

00:03:42.259 --> 00:03:46.259
When evening came, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)

00:03:46.259 --> 00:03:48.460
entered Medina, and we entered as well.

00:03:48.460 --> 00:03:50.460
I told my wife the news

00:03:50.460 --> 00:03:54.460
and what the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) had said to me.

00:03:54.460 --> 00:03:55.460
She said,

00:03:55.460 --> 00:03:56.460
'Comply then!

00:03:56.460 --> 00:03:58.460
We hear and obey.'

00:03:58.460 --> 00:04:00.460
When morning came,

00:04:00.460 --> 00:04:02.460
I took the camel by its halter

00:04:02.460 --> 00:04:08.460
and led it until I made it kneel at the door of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him).

00:04:08.460 --> 00:04:12.460
Then I sat in the mosque nearby.

00:04:12.460 --> 00:04:15.460
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) came out

00:04:15.460 --> 00:04:17.459
and saw the camel.

00:04:17.459 --> 00:04:19.459
He asked, 'What is this?'

00:04:19.459 --> 00:04:21.459
They said, 'O Messenger of Allah,

00:04:21.459 --> 00:04:24.459
this is the camel brought by Jabir.'

00:04:24.459 --> 00:04:25.459
He said,

00:04:25.459 --> 00:04:27.459
'Where is Jabir?'

00:04:27.459 --> 00:04:29.459
So I was called for him,

00:04:29.459 --> 00:04:30.459
and he said to me,

00:04:30.459 --> 00:04:31.459
'O nephew,

00:04:31.459 --> 00:04:34.459
take the halter of your camel, for it belongs to you.'

00:04:34.459 --> 00:04:37.459
Then he called Bilal and said,

00:04:37.459 --> 00:04:39.459
'Go with Jabir

00:04:39.459 --> 00:04:41.459
and give him an *uqiyyah*.'

00:04:41.459 --> 00:04:42.459
He said:

00:04:42.459 --> 00:04:45.459
So I went with him, and he gave me an *uqiyyah*

00:04:45.459 --> 00:04:48.459
and added a little extra.

00:04:48.459 --> 00:04:49.459
He said:

00:04:49.459 --> 00:04:52.459
By Allah, it continuously brought blessing and increase to my wealth,

00:04:52.459 --> 00:04:55.459
and its distinct place remained visible among our possessions,

00:04:55.459 --> 00:04:59.459
until it was lost yesterday among what we lost—

00:04:59.459 --> 00:05:01.459
meaning on the Day of al-Harrah,

00:05:01.459 --> 00:05:04.459
in the year 63 AH."

00:05:04.459 --> 00:05:06.459
In another narration,

00:05:06.459 --> 00:05:10.459
Jabir stipulated a condition with the Prophet (peace be upon him)

00:05:10.459 --> 00:05:13.449
that he be allowed to ride it back to Medina.

00:05:13.449 --> 00:05:16.449
This hadith contains many points of benefit,

00:05:16.449 --> 00:05:17.449
including:

00:05:17.449 --> 00:05:18.449
First:

00:05:18.449 --> 00:05:21.449
That the Prophet (peace be upon him)

00:05:21.449 --> 00:05:23.449
purchased the camel from Jabir,

00:05:23.449 --> 00:05:26.449
bargaining with him until he satisfied him with the price.

00:05:26.449 --> 00:05:28.449
This proves the permissibility of bargaining over price.

00:05:28.449 --> 00:05:30.449
Second:

00:05:30.449 --> 00:05:32.449
That the Prophet (peace be upon him)

00:05:32.449 --> 00:05:35.449
was the most compassionate and gentle of people with his Companions;

00:05:35.449 --> 00:05:40.449
this is evident in his staying behind until he caught up with Jabir ibn 'Abd Allah.

00:05:40.449 --> 00:05:42.449
Third:

00:05:42.449 --> 00:05:46.449
It highlights the Companions' profound love for the Prophet (peace be upon him),

00:05:46.449 --> 00:05:51.449
as demonstrated when the Prophet (peace be upon him) said to Jabir,

00:05:51.449 --> 00:05:52.449
"Sell it to me,"

00:05:52.449 --> 00:05:54.449
and Jabir replied,

00:05:54.449 --> 00:05:56.449
"Rather, I give it to you as a gift."

00:05:56.449 --> 00:05:57.670
Fourth:

00:05:57.670 --> 00:06:00.670
The recommendation to marry a virgin,

00:06:00.670 --> 00:06:05.670
as the Prophet (peace be upon him) advised Jabir to do.

00:06:05.670 --> 00:06:06.740
Fifth:

00:06:06.740 --> 00:06:10.740
It also proves the permissibility of marrying a previously married woman.

00:06:10.829 --> 00:06:11.829
Sixth:

00:06:11.829 --> 00:06:15.829
A demonstration of the generosity of the Prophet (peace be upon him),

00:06:15.829 --> 00:06:18.829
in that after purchasing the camel,

00:06:18.829 --> 00:06:22.829
he returned it to Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) as a gift.

00:06:22.829 --> 00:06:24.829
Seventh:

00:06:24.829 --> 00:06:26.829
That Jabir ibn 'Abd Allah

00:06:26.829 --> 00:06:29.829
stipulated a condition to the Prophet (peace be upon him)

00:06:29.829 --> 00:06:31.829
when he sold him the camel:

00:06:31.829 --> 00:06:35.829
that he be permitted to ride it until he reached Medina.

00:06:35.829 --> 00:06:39.829
Scholars have cited this as evidence for the validity of adding a condition to a sale—

00:06:39.829 --> 00:06:41.829
namely, a sale coupled with a stipulation.

00:06:41.829 --> 00:06:43.829
And Allah knows best.

Treasures of the Prophetic Biography:

00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:52.300
Lessons and Insights.

00:06:52.300 --> 00:06:57.629
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) posted

00:06:57.629 --> 00:07:00.629
two men as night scouts to guard the Muslims:

00:07:00.629 --> 00:07:02.629
'Abbad ibn Bishr

00:07:02.629 --> 00:07:04.629
and 'Ammar ibn Yasir.

00:07:04.629 --> 00:07:08.629
'Ammar went to sleep while 'Abbad stood up to pray.

00:07:08.629 --> 00:07:11.629
A man from the idolaters approached

00:07:11.629 --> 00:07:13.629
and shot an arrow at 'Abbad while he was praying.

00:07:13.629 --> 00:07:16.629
He pulled it out and continued his prayer.

00:07:16.629 --> 00:07:19.629
The attacker struck him with a second arrow;

00:07:19.629 --> 00:07:22.629
he pulled it out and continued his prayer.

00:07:22.629 --> 00:07:24.629
Then he shot him with a third;

00:07:24.629 --> 00:07:28.629
yet he did not break his prayer until he completed the salutation (may Allah be pleased with him).

00:07:28.629 --> 00:07:30.629
He then woke his companion.

00:07:30.629 --> 00:07:32.629
When 'Ammar saw his blood, he said,

00:07:32.629 --> 00:07:34.629
"SubhanAllah!

00:07:34.629 --> 00:07:36.629
Why did you not alert me at the first arrow?"

00:07:36.629 --> 00:07:37.629
He replied,

00:07:37.629 --> 00:07:39.629
"I was reciting a surah

00:07:39.629 --> 00:07:41.629
and hated to interrupt it."

00:07:42.629 --> 00:07:44.860
In that same year,

00:07:44.860 --> 00:07:47.860
the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) appointed

00:07:47.860 --> 00:07:49.860
a man from the Ansar

00:07:49.860 --> 00:07:51.860
over a military detachment he dispatched,

00:07:51.860 --> 00:07:54.860
commanding the men to listen to him and obey.

00:07:54.860 --> 00:07:56.860
During the journey, they angered their commander,

00:07:56.860 --> 00:07:58.860
so he said to them,

00:07:58.860 --> 00:08:00.860
"Gather firewood for me."

00:08:00.860 --> 00:08:02.860
They gathered it for him.

00:08:02.860 --> 00:08:03.860
He then said,

00:08:03.860 --> 00:08:05.860
"Kindle a fire!"

00:08:05.860 --> 00:08:06.860
So they lit it.

00:08:06.860 --> 00:08:07.860
Then he said,

00:08:07.860 --> 00:08:10.860
"Did not the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) command you

00:08:10.860 --> 00:08:13.860
to listen to me and obey?"

00:08:13.860 --> 00:08:15.860
They replied, "Yes, indeed."

00:08:15.860 --> 00:08:16.860
He said:

00:08:16.860 --> 00:08:18.860
"Enter it."

00:08:18.860 --> 00:08:21.920
This is a truly astonishing matter,

00:08:21.920 --> 00:08:23.920
because he understood that as long as

00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:26.920
the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:29.920
commanded them to hear and obey him,

00:08:29.920 --> 00:08:31.920
then they must obey him in everything,

00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:34.919
even if it involved disobedience to Allah,

00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:36.919
Blessed and Exalted is He.

00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:38.950
They looked at one another

00:08:38.950 --> 00:08:40.950
and said,

00:08:40.950 --> 00:08:44.950
"We only fled to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:08:44.950 --> 00:08:46.950
to escape the Fire,

00:08:46.950 --> 00:08:48.950
not to fall into it."

00:08:48.950 --> 00:08:49.950
He said:

00:08:49.950 --> 00:08:51.950
His anger then subsided.

00:08:51.950 --> 00:08:55.950
When they came to the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:08:55.950 --> 00:08:57.950
they mentioned this to him,

00:08:57.950 --> 00:08:58.950
and he said,

00:08:58.950 --> 00:09:01.950
"Had they entered it, they would never have emerged from it;

00:09:01.950 --> 00:09:04.950
obedience is only in what is righteous."

Treasures of the Prophetic biography (Seerah)

00:09:08.659 --> 00:09:15.769
The 'Umrat al-Qada' (The Compensatory Umrah) in the seventh year of the Hijrah.

00:09:15.769 --> 00:09:21.590
We have previously discussed how the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:09:21.590 --> 00:09:24.590
and his Companions were barred from the Sacred Mosque,

00:09:24.590 --> 00:09:27.590
until the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah was concluded.

00:09:27.590 --> 00:09:30.659
Abu 'Abdullah al-Hakim said:

00:09:30.659 --> 00:09:34.659
Reports have reached the level of tawatur that he, peace be upon him,

00:09:34.659 --> 00:09:36.659
when the month of Dhu al-Qa'dah arrived,

00:09:36.659 --> 00:09:40.659
commanded his Companions to perform the Umrah to compensate for their previous one,

00:09:40.659 --> 00:09:44.659
and that no one who had witnessed Hudaybiyyah should remain behind.

00:09:44.659 --> 00:09:47.659
They all set out, except for those who had been martyred.

00:09:47.659 --> 00:09:50.659
Others also went out with him to perform the Umrah,

00:09:50.659 --> 00:09:53.659
so their number reached two thousand,

00:09:53.659 --> 00:09:55.659
excluding the women and children.

00:09:55.659 --> 00:10:00.720
The Prophet, peace be upon him, drove sixty sacrificial camels with him.

00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:02.720
He entered the state of ihram from Dhu al-Hulayfah,

00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:06.720
and set out prepared with weapons and combat gear,

00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:09.720
fearing that the Quraysh might commit treachery.

00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:11.750
When he reached Ya'jaj,

00:10:11.750 --> 00:10:15.750
he deposited all the equipment, shields, and armor,

00:10:15.750 --> 00:10:17.750
along with the arrows and spears,

00:10:17.750 --> 00:10:22.750
and left them under the guard of Aws Ibn Khawlah al-Ansari with two hundred men.

00:10:22.750 --> 00:10:26.750
The Prophet, peace be upon him, entered carrying only the weapons of a traveler,

00:10:26.750 --> 00:10:29.750
with swords in their scabbards.

00:10:29.750 --> 00:10:34.750
The Quraysh had sent Mikraz Ibn Hafs with a group of their people,

00:10:34.750 --> 00:10:37.750
and he said to him, "O Muhammad,

00:10:37.750 --> 00:10:40.750
we have never known you, young or old, to be treacherous;

00:10:40.750 --> 00:10:44.750
yet you enter the Sacred Precinct with weapons against your own people,

00:10:44.750 --> 00:10:49.750
even though you had agreed not to enter except with the weapons of a traveler."

00:10:49.750 --> 00:10:52.750
The Prophet, peace be upon him, replied,

00:10:52.750 --> 00:10:55.750
"I am not bringing weapons against them."

00:10:55.750 --> 00:10:57.750
Mikraz said,

00:10:57.750 --> 00:10:59.750
"This is what you are known for:

00:10:59.750 --> 00:11:01.750
righteousness and loyalty."

00:11:01.750 --> 00:11:07.909
This is a testimony from one of the Prophet's enemies regarding him,

00:11:07.909 --> 00:11:10.909
and such testimonies are successive and numerous.

00:11:10.909 --> 00:11:15.909
They bore witness to his truthfulness, trustworthiness, righteousness, and loyalty.

00:11:15.909 --> 00:11:23.330
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, entered riding his she-camel, al-Qaswa'.

00:11:23.330 --> 00:11:29.330
He used to name all his horses, camels, donkeys, and mules.

00:11:29.330 --> 00:11:35.330
Among the horses of the Prophet, peace be upon him, are those collected in a line of poetry:

00:11:35.330 --> 00:11:39.330
"Sakb, Lahif, Subhah, Darb,

00:11:39.330 --> 00:11:43.330
Lazaz, Murtajiz, and Ward—they have secrets."

00:11:43.330 --> 00:11:45.419
As for the mules,

00:11:45.419 --> 00:11:51.419
the Prophet, peace be upon him, had a mule he named Duldul.

00:11:51.419 --> 00:11:54.419
He had a donkey named 'Ufayr.

00:11:54.419 --> 00:11:58.419
And among his camels were al-Qaswa' and al-'Adba'.

00:11:58.419 --> 00:12:01.419
This she-camel has a famous story,

00:12:01.419 --> 00:12:05.419
which is that she was so fast she was never outrun.

00:12:05.419 --> 00:12:10.419
Then a Bedouin came and raced her with his camel, and he outran her.

00:12:10.419 --> 00:12:13.419
This distressed the Muslims,

00:12:13.419 --> 00:12:16.460
so the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said,

00:12:16.460 --> 00:12:23.460
"It is a right upon Allah that He does not raise anything in this world without eventually lowering it."

00:12:23.460 --> 00:12:28.620
The Prophet, peace be upon him, entered riding his she-camel, al-Qaswa',

00:12:28.620 --> 00:12:31.620
while the Muslims were girded with their swords,

00:12:31.620 --> 00:12:36.620
surrounding the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, reciting the talbiyah.

00:12:36.620 --> 00:12:41.620
The polytheists went out from Makkah to a mountain north of the city

00:12:41.620 --> 00:12:44.620
called Qu'ayqi'an.

00:12:44.620 --> 00:12:46.620
They said to one another,

00:12:46.620 --> 00:12:50.620
"A delegation is coming to you whom the fever of Yathrib has weakened."

00:12:50.620 --> 00:12:56.620
The Prophet, peace be upon him, seemed to have heard this or sensed it,

00:12:56.620 --> 00:13:01.620
so he commanded his Companions to perform the ramal (brisk walking) during the first three circuits,

00:13:01.620 --> 00:13:04.620
and to walk normally between the two corners.

00:13:04.620 --> 00:13:09.620
This was because the people of Makkah could see them when they circled from the Hijr to the Yemeni Corner,

00:13:09.620 --> 00:13:14.620
but between the Yemeni Corner and the Hijr, they could not see them.

00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:20.620
The Prophet, peace be upon him, liked to show strength to the Quraysh.

00:13:20.620 --> 00:13:23.620
The ramal then became a Sunnah thereafter,

00:13:23.620 --> 00:13:26.620
not only for the Compensatory Umrah,

00:13:26.620 --> 00:13:28.620
but a permanent Sunnah.

00:13:28.620 --> 00:13:34.620
For it is established from the Prophet, peace be upon him, that when he performed Hajj, he performed the ramal,

00:13:34.620 --> 00:13:36.620
though it was throughout the entire House.

00:13:36.620 --> 00:13:40.620
The Prophet, peace be upon him, entered Makkah,

00:13:40.620 --> 00:13:45.620
with 'Abdullah Ibn Rawahah in front of him.

00:13:45.620 --> 00:13:47.620
He was a poet,

00:13:47.620 --> 00:13:51.620
and the poets of the Prophet, peace be upon him, were three:

00:13:51.620 --> 00:13:53.620
Hassan Ibn Thabit,

00:13:53.620 --> 00:13:55.620
Ka'b Ibn Malik,

00:13:55.620 --> 00:13:57.620
and 'Abdullah Ibn Rawahah.

00:13:57.620 --> 00:14:02.649
'Abdullah Ibn Rawahah was girded with his sword, saying:

00:14:02.649 --> 00:14:06.649
"Clear the way, O sons of the disbelievers, from his path;

00:14:06.649 --> 00:14:09.649
clear the way, for all goodness is in His Messenger.

00:14:09.649 --> 00:14:12.649
The Most Merciful has sent down in His revelation,

00:14:12.649 --> 00:14:16.649
in scrolls recited upon His Messenger:

00:14:16.649 --> 00:14:19.649
O Lord, I believe in what he says,

00:14:19.649 --> 00:14:23.649
I have seen the truth in accepting it,

00:14:23.649 --> 00:14:26.649
that the best of killing is in His path.

00:14:26.649 --> 00:14:30.649
Today we strike you over its revelation,

00:14:30.649 --> 00:14:34.649
a strike that removes heads from their resting places,

00:14:34.649 --> 00:14:37.649
and makes the intimate friend forget his friend."

00:14:38.649 --> 00:14:40.779
'Umar came and said,

00:14:40.779 --> 00:14:42.779
"O Ibn Rawahah,

00:14:42.779 --> 00:14:46.779
in front of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:14:46.779 --> 00:14:49.779
and in the Sacred Sanctuary of Allah, you recite poetry?"

00:14:49.779 --> 00:14:52.779
The Prophet, peace be upon him, said to him,

00:14:52.779 --> 00:14:54.779
"Leave him be, O 'Umar,

00:14:54.779 --> 00:14:58.779
for it is more piercing to them than the flight of arrows."

00:14:58.779 --> 00:15:02.779
Meaning, this poetry is more intense for them than arrows.

00:15:02.779 --> 00:15:05.779
When the Prophet, peace be upon him, performed the ramal

00:15:05.779 --> 00:15:08.779
for the first three circuits with those who were with him,

00:15:08.779 --> 00:15:10.779
and the polytheists saw them,

00:15:10.779 --> 00:15:13.779
they said, "Are these the ones you claimed

00:15:13.779 --> 00:15:16.779
that the fever had weakened?

00:15:16.779 --> 00:15:19.779
These are more robust than so-and-so and so-and-so."

00:15:19.779 --> 00:15:22.840
When he finished the sa'i,

00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:25.840
he had placed the sacrificial animals he had brought

00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:28.840
at al-Marwah.

00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:30.840
He said, "This is the place of slaughter,

00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:33.840
and all the mountain passes of Makkah are places of slaughter."

00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:36.840
So he, peace be upon him, slaughtered

00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:39.840
at al-Marwah and shaved his head there.

00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:42.840
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, stayed

00:15:42.840 --> 00:15:44.840
in Makkah for three days.

00:15:44.840 --> 00:15:47.840
When the morning of the fourth day came,

00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:49.840
they came to 'Ali and said,

00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:52.840
"Tell your companion to depart from us,

00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:54.840
for the time limit has expired."

00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:58.840
This was because they had agreed with the Prophet, peace be upon him,

00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:02.840
that he would perform the Umrah for three days.

00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:05.840
So the Prophet, peace be upon him, departed

00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:07.840
and camped at Sarif,

00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:10.450
where he stayed.
