Pause.
Get to know the Companions and the scholars, and the most exalted among them.
A new challenge: Who am I?
I am one of the Companions from the Muhajirun.
I was a leader among the notables of the Quraysh in Makkah.
I am from the Banu Umayyah.
I was a wealthy merchant.
My conversion to Islam was delayed.
My brothers, Khalid and 'Amr, preceded me.
They embraced Islam and then migrated to Abyssinia.
I witnessed the Battle of Badr while I was still a polytheist.
By the decree of Allah the Exalted.
My other two brothers were killed in that battle.
Al-'As and 'Ubaydah.
They died while still in a state of polytheism.
When 'Uthman ibn 'Affan, may Allah be pleased with him, came to Makkah.
During the days of Hudaybiyyah.
As an envoy from the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.
To negotiate with the Quraysh.
I was the one who granted him protection.
I let him ride behind me on my mount.
And I entered the Sacred Precinct with him.
I said to him:
"Go forward and move about; fear no one."
For the Banu Sa'id are the mighty ones of the Sacred Precinct.
I invited 'Uthman to perform Tawaf around the Ka'bah.
He replied:
"I would not do so."
"Until the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, performs Tawaf."
When the Prophet, peace be upon him, set out for Khaybar to conquer it.
My brothers returned from Abyssinia.
They sent word to me.
I met with them.
They presented Islam to me.
I accepted it.
We arrived to meet the Prophet, peace be upon him, in Khaybar.
I embraced Islam.
I witnessed the conquest of Khaybar with him.
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, appointed me as governor over Bahrain.
I served as its governor.
Until he, peace be upon him, passed away.
I swore that I would never be a governor for anyone after that.
So, who am I?

The best of generations in their stances and examples.
They followed the Messenger whenever he strove or spoke.

They departed and left a question in our conscience:
Has any star risen and shone like them?
They filled life with glorious deeds.
And the world of the noble flourished with pride because of them.
