1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:04,360 Pause. 2 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:12,140 Get to know the Companions, the scholars, and the prominent figures. 3 00:00:12,140 --> 00:00:16,140 A new challenge: Who am I? 4 00:00:16,140 --> 00:00:23,960 I am one of the senior Companions and among the nobles of the Ansar. 5 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,960 I am the leader of the Khazraj. 6 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,019 I was renowned for my courage and generosity. 7 00:00:29,019 --> 00:00:34,179 I was one of the twelve leaders at the Pledge of al-'Aqabah. 8 00:00:34,179 --> 00:00:39,179 I strove alongside the Prophet, peace be upon him, in all his military expeditions. 9 00:00:39,179 --> 00:00:43,250 I dedicated my wealth to the service of Islam and the Muslims. 10 00:00:43,250 --> 00:00:46,250 I was also known for my intense sense of honor. 11 00:00:46,250 --> 00:00:50,250 I never married a woman who was not a virgin. 12 00:00:50,250 --> 00:00:53,250 And I never divorced a woman. 13 00:00:53,250 --> 00:00:56,250 So that no one would dare to marry her after me. 14 00:00:56,250 --> 00:00:59,369 During the Battle of Hunayn. 15 00:00:59,369 --> 00:01:03,369 When the Muslims finished the battle victorious. 16 00:01:03,369 --> 00:01:06,370 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, began. 17 00:01:06,370 --> 00:01:09,370 Distributing the spoils among the Muslims. 18 00:01:09,370 --> 00:01:12,370 He began giving to those whose hearts were to be reconciled. 19 00:01:12,370 --> 00:01:14,370 They were those nobles. 20 00:01:14,370 --> 00:01:18,370 Who had recently entered Islam from among the people of Makkah. 21 00:01:18,370 --> 00:01:22,370 He also gave to the poor among the Muhajirun. 22 00:01:22,370 --> 00:01:24,370 But he did not give my people, the Ansar. 23 00:01:24,370 --> 00:01:27,370 Anything from the spoils of this battle. 24 00:01:27,370 --> 00:01:31,430 I heard my people whispering about this matter. 25 00:01:31,430 --> 00:01:35,430 They were troubled by the Messenger of Allah’s neglect of them. 26 00:01:35,430 --> 00:01:38,430 So I went to the Prophet, peace be upon him. 27 00:01:38,430 --> 00:01:41,430 And I said, "O Messenger of Allah." 28 00:01:41,430 --> 00:01:44,430 "This group of the Ansar." 29 00:01:44,430 --> 00:01:46,430 "Have felt hurt in their hearts regarding you." 30 00:01:46,430 --> 00:01:50,430 "Because of what you did with this booty that you acquired." 31 00:01:50,430 --> 00:01:52,560 "You distributed it among your own people." 32 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,560 "And you gave great gifts to the tribes of the Arabs." 33 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,560 "Yet this group of the Ansar received nothing of it." 34 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,750 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to me. 35 00:02:04,750 --> 00:02:06,750 "And where do you stand on this?" 36 00:02:06,750 --> 00:02:09,750 I lowered my head and said. 37 00:02:09,750 --> 00:02:13,750 "I am but one of my people, O Messenger of Allah." 38 00:02:13,750 --> 00:02:16,939 He, peace be upon him, said. 39 00:02:16,939 --> 00:02:19,939 "Then gather your people for me." 40 00:02:19,939 --> 00:02:22,939 "And let no one else enter with them." 41 00:02:22,939 --> 00:02:24,979 So I gathered my people, the Ansar. 42 00:02:24,979 --> 00:02:28,979 And I informed the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. 43 00:02:29,979 --> 00:02:32,979 He came to us, peace be upon him. 44 00:02:32,979 --> 00:02:34,979 While he was smiling. 45 00:02:34,979 --> 00:02:37,979 He said, "O assembly of the Ansar." 46 00:02:37,979 --> 00:02:40,979 "What is this statement that has reached me regarding you?" 47 00:02:40,979 --> 00:02:44,979 "And this hurt you have felt in your hearts toward me?" 48 00:02:44,979 --> 00:02:49,099 "Did I not come to you while you were astray, and Allah guided you?" 49 00:02:49,099 --> 00:02:52,099 "And in need, and Allah enriched you?" 50 00:02:52,099 --> 00:02:56,099 "And enemies, and Allah brought your hearts together?" 51 00:02:56,099 --> 00:02:58,099 We said. 52 00:02:58,099 --> 00:02:59,099 "Indeed." 53 00:02:59,099 --> 00:03:03,099 "Allah and His Messenger are more gracious and more generous." 54 00:03:03,099 --> 00:03:06,360 The Messenger, peace be upon him, said. 55 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,360 "Will you not answer me, O assembly of the Ansar?" 56 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:11,360 We said. 57 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,360 "How shall we answer you, O Messenger of Allah?" 58 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,360 "To Allah and His Messenger belong all grace and generosity." 59 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,460 The Messenger, peace be upon him, said. 60 00:03:22,460 --> 00:03:25,460 "By Allah, if you wished, you could have said." 61 00:03:25,460 --> 00:03:28,460 "And you would have spoken the truth and been believed." 62 00:03:28,460 --> 00:03:31,460 "You came to us belied, and we believed you." 63 00:03:31,460 --> 00:03:34,460 "Forsaken, and we aided you." 64 00:03:34,460 --> 00:03:37,460 "Destitute, and we comforted you." 65 00:03:37,460 --> 00:03:40,460 "And driven out, and we sheltered you." 66 00:03:40,460 --> 00:03:43,840 "Do you feel hurt, O assembly of the Ansar, in your hearts." 67 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,840 "Over a small portion of this world." 68 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,840 "With which I sought to reconcile a people so they might embrace Islam." 69 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,840 "While I entrusted you to your Islam?" 70 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,969 "Are you not satisfied, O assembly of the Ansar." 71 00:03:55,969 --> 00:03:58,969 "That the people go away with sheep and camels." 72 00:03:58,969 --> 00:04:03,969 "While you return with the Messenger of Allah to your dwellings?" 73 00:04:03,969 --> 00:04:06,060 "By Him in whose hand is my soul." 74 00:04:06,060 --> 00:04:08,060 "Were it not for the migration." 75 00:04:08,060 --> 00:04:11,060 "I would have been one of the Ansar." 76 00:04:11,060 --> 00:04:13,099 "And if the people took a mountain pass." 77 00:04:13,099 --> 00:04:16,100 "I would take the pass of the Ansar." 78 00:04:16,100 --> 00:04:19,290 "O Allah, have mercy on the Ansar." 79 00:04:19,290 --> 00:04:21,290 "And the children of the Ansar." 80 00:04:21,290 --> 00:04:24,290 "And the children of the children of the Ansar." 81 00:04:24,290 --> 00:04:27,480 We wept until our beards were soaked. 82 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,480 And we all said. 83 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,480 "We are satisfied with the Messenger of Allah as our portion and share." 84 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,480 "We are satisfied with the Messenger of Allah as our portion and share." 85 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,670 Thus, Allah preserved the strength of the Muslims. 86 00:04:41,670 --> 00:04:43,670 Our souls were at peace. 87 00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:49,670 And we knew our standing with the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. 88 00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:51,959 So, who am I? 89 00:04:51,959 --> 00:05:00,120 Share your answers with us in the comments below the video. 90
