1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:05,830
Among the aesthetic beauties of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).

2
00:00:05,830 --> 00:00:08,710
The initial sense of awe.

3
00:00:08,710 --> 00:00:14,189
The secluded woman witnessed him on the road.

4
00:00:14,189 --> 00:00:16,429
She was captivated by his character.

5
00:00:16,429 --> 00:00:18,789
And she found his Prophetic characteristics (Shama'il) to be delightful.

6
00:00:18,789 --> 00:00:23,269
Especially since his blessing had filled the corners of her tent.

7
00:00:23,269 --> 00:00:24,949
Generosity became widespread.

8
00:00:24,949 --> 00:00:28,309
And hardship and distress were lifted.

9
00:00:28,309 --> 00:00:31,059
For there had come to her a young man of noble stature.

10
00:00:31,260 --> 00:00:33,060
Whose fame had preceded him.

11
00:00:33,060 --> 00:00:35,259
The promised Prophet.

12
00:00:35,259 --> 00:00:37,700
For whom wealth had been set aside.

13
00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:42,799
And of whose virtues and wonders people spoke.

14
00:00:42,799 --> 00:00:45,159
Among the most exquisite descriptions of him.

15
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,280
Is the account of Umm Ma'bad al-Khuza'iyyah.

16
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,920
In which we observe an initial sense of awe.

17
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,380
And a rare aesthetic portrait.

18
00:00:55,380 --> 00:00:56,659
She said:

19
00:00:56,659 --> 00:00:59,859
I saw a man of manifest radiance.

20
00:00:59,859 --> 00:01:01,500
With a bright, clear face.

21
00:01:01,500 --> 00:01:03,219
Of excellent character.

22
00:01:03,219 --> 00:01:05,099
Not marred by a protruding belly.

23
00:01:05,099 --> 00:01:07,819
Nor diminished by a small, disproportionate head.

24
00:01:07,819 --> 00:01:10,219
Handsome and well-proportioned.

25
00:01:10,219 --> 00:01:11,659
When he was silent.

26
00:01:11,659 --> 00:01:13,739
Dignity enveloped him.

27
00:01:13,739 --> 00:01:15,420
And when he spoke.

28
00:01:15,420 --> 00:01:17,959
Splendor shone upon him.

29
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,799
The most majestic and beautiful of people from a distance.

30
00:01:21,799 --> 00:01:25,390
And the most handsome and sweet of them from up close.

31
00:01:25,390 --> 00:01:27,430
Sweet in his speech.

32
00:01:27,430 --> 00:01:30,909
Decisive, neither lacking in substance nor rambling.

33
00:01:30,950 --> 00:01:35,750
As if his words were beads on a string, cascading down.

34
00:01:35,750 --> 00:01:39,099
To the end of the well-known description.

35
00:01:39,099 --> 00:01:41,659
Reflect here upon this fleeting description.

36
00:01:41,659 --> 00:01:44,420
During the hour of the traveler’s arrival.

37
00:01:44,420 --> 00:01:46,700
And how she expressed it with such creativity.

38
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:51,180
Speaking words that rank among the finest Prophetic descriptions.

39
00:01:51,180 --> 00:01:55,340
This blessed, beautiful encounter moved her.

40
00:01:55,340 --> 00:01:59,299
To believe in him and affirm his call.

41
00:01:59,340 --> 00:02:02,620
For she saw goodness in his words and his deeds.

42
00:02:02,620 --> 00:02:06,109
And in his appearance and his conduct.

43
00:02:06,109 --> 00:02:08,349
So learn from his biography (Seerah).

44
00:02:08,349 --> 00:02:12,229
That your hearts may be expanded and your faith perfected.

45
00:02:12,229 --> 00:02:15,020
And your own qualities may become refined.

46
00:02:15,020 --> 00:02:16,979
Allah the Exalted says:

47
00:02:16,979 --> 00:02:21,930
﴾And indeed, you are of a great moral character.﴿

48
00:02:21,930 --> 00:02:27,129
Among the aesthetic beauties of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).
