Pictures from the lives of the followers
By Dr. Abdul Rahman Raafat Al-Basha
May God have mercy on him
Saeed bin Jabi
May God have mercy on him
He was a young, fit-bodied, well-developed boy
Flowing with vitality and activity
He was also smart-hearted and sharp-witted
A dispute over the noble ones
Sinned by incest
It was not the blackness of his color or the pepperiness of his hair
He is of Ethiopian origin
To get rid of his unique personality
This is despite his young age
The Abyssinian fatta was already aware of it
Arab loyalty
Knowledge is the right path that leads one to God
And if he met
It is his paved path that will lead him to Paradise
So he placed the piety in his right and the knowledge in his left
He tightened both his hands on them
He set off on the journey of life with them, reckless and careless
Since his early childhood
People saw him as either studying or studying his book
Or serene in his sanctuary, worshiping
This is the masterpiece of the Muslims of his time
Saeed bin Jubair, may God be pleased with him
The young man Saeed bin Jubayr took knowledge from a group of the venerable Companions
Like Abu Saeed Al-Khudri
Uday bin Hatem Al-Tai
And Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari
And Abu Hurairah Al-Dawsi
And Abdullah bin Omar
And Aisha, Mother of the Believers
May God be pleased with her and all of them
However, his greatest teacher and greatest mentor
It was Abdullah bin Abbas
Ink of the nation of Muhammad
And its abundant knowledge
Saeed bin Jubair joined Abdullah bin Abbas
The shadow is necessary for its owner
So he learned from him the Qur’an and its interpretation
And modern and strange
He gained knowledge of religion at his hands
Learn interpretation from him
He studied the language
He gained the greatest mastery of it
Until tomorrow, there is no one of the people of his time on the face of the earth
Unless he needs his knowledge
Then he toured the lands of the Muslims
In search of knowledge, God willing, to roam
When he achieved what he wanted of knowledge
He made Kufa his home and residence
He became a teacher and imam for its people
He used to lead people in Ramadan
He recites the reading of Abdullah bin Masoud at night
And another reading Zaid bin Thabit
And I started reading others
And so on
And if he prayed alone
Perhaps he read the entire Qur’an
And if he passed by the word of God Almighty
He went through some of the verses of promise and threat
His feet are bruised and his heart is cracked
His eyes wandered
Then he continues to start and repeat
Until he is about to die
He decided to travel to the Sacred House twice every year
Once in Rajab, Muharram
Ihram for Umrah
And another in Dhul-Qa'dah, in ihram for Hajj
He was a student of knowledge and the desires for goodness, righteousness and advice
They flock to Kufa
To draw fresh wealth from Saeed bin Jubayr’s wellsprings
And they take advantage of his righteous guidance
This asks him what fear is
He answers him by saying:
Fear is to fear God Almighty
Until his fear prevents you from committing sins
And that one asks him what the dhikr is
He says that remembrance is obedience to God Almighty
Whoever turns to God and obeys Him has remembered Him
And whoever turns away from it and does not obey him
I will not remember him even if he spends the night praying and reciting hymns
When Saeed bin Jubayr took it, Kufa was his residence
Subject to Al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf Al-Thaqafi
Al-Hajjaj was the governor of Iraq and the Levant at that time
And beyond the river
At that time, he was at the height of his power and authority
This was after Abdullah bin Al-Zubayr was killed
He eliminated his movement
Iraq was subjected to Sultan bin Umayyah
And put out the flames of revolutions existing here and there
And put the sword to the necks of the servants
It spread terror throughout the country
Until hearts were filled with awe of him and fear of his oppression
Then, God willing, a clash would occur between Al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf Al-Thaqafi
And between Abdul Rahman bin Al-Ash'ath
One of his top commanders
And the clash turns into a strife that consumes everything green and dry
It left deep wounds on the body of Muslims
He was aware of this strife
Al-Hajjaj sent Ibn Al-Ash'ath with an army to invade Ratabil
Turkish king of the regions beyond Sijistan
The valiant leader Al-Muzaffar conquered a large part of the country of Ratabil
He occupied fortified fortresses from his lands
He took many spoils from his cities and villages
Then he sent messengers to Al-Hajjaj who brought him good news of the great victory
They carried with them a fifth of the spoils
To settle in the coffers of the Muslim treasury
He wrote a book for him
He asked him for permission to stop fighting for a period of time
To test the country's entrances and exits
It depends on its nature and conditions
This was before venturing into its remote, unknown reefs
Exposing the victorious army to dangers
Al-Hajjaj became angry with him
He sent him a letter describing him as cowardly and submissive
He warns him of woe and destruction
He threatens to step down from leadership of the army
Abd al-Rahman gathered the leaders of the soldiers and the battalion commanders
He read to them the book of pilgrims
He consulted them about it
So they called him to go out against him
And the initiative to renounce obedience to him
Abdul Rahman said to them
Do you pledge allegiance to me on that?
And you support me in his struggle
Until God purifies the land of Iraq from its filth
The soldiers pledged allegiance to him for what he called them to do
Heb Abdul Rahman bin Al-Ash'ath
With his army full of hatred for pilgrims
It broke out between him and the armies of Ben Youssef Al-Thaqafi
Fierce battles
He won a decisive victory
So Sijistan was captured
And all of Persia
Then he came, wanting to seize Kufa and Basra from the hands of Al-Hajjaj
While the fires of war were burning between the two teams
Ibn Al-Ash'ath was moving from Dhafar to Dhafar
Al-Hajjaj made speeches that strengthened his opponent
This is because the governors of the cities wrote letters to Al-Hajjaj in which they said:
The people of the Dhimmah have begun to convert to Islam
To get rid of paying the tax
They left the villages where they worked
They settled in the cities
The abscess has disappeared
The levies have gone bankrupt
Al-Hajjaj wrote letters to his governors in Basra and elsewhere
He orders them to gather all the dhimmis who fled to the cities
And to return them to the villages
No matter how long they are displaced from it
So the governors announced the matter
They evacuated large numbers of them from their homes
They kept them away from their sources of livelihood
They gathered them on the outskirts of the cities
They took their women and children with them
They forced them to leave for the villages
After a long time had passed since they had separated from her
Then the women, children, and elderly began to cry
They scream and call for help
And they call Wa Muhammad, he is Wa Muhammad
They were confused about what they were doing
And where are they going?
So the jurists and readers of Basra went out to them
To help them and intercede for them
They couldn't do that
They started crying because they were crying
They seek help for their affliction
Abdul Rahman bin Al-Ash'ath seized this opportunity
He called on jurists and readers to support him
A group of the eminent followers and imams of the Muslims responded to him
And at their head is Saeed bin Jubair
And Abdul Rahman bin Abi Laila
Al-Shaabi and Abu Al-Bakhtari
And others and others
A war broke out between the two groups
The first victory there was for Ibn al-Ash'ath and those with him over al-Hajjaj and his soldiers
Then the balance of the pilgrims began to tip the balance little by little
Until Ibn Al-Ash'ath defeated his denier
He escaped by himself
His army surrendered to Al-Hajjaj and his soldiers
Al-Hajjaj ordered his herald to call out the defeated fighters
And to invite them to renew his pledge of allegiance
Most of them responded to him
Some of them hid from him
Among those hiding was Saeed bin Jubair, may God be pleased with him
When those who surrendered began to advance one by one, they pledged allegiance to him
They were surprised by something they had not expected
So he started saying to one of them
Bear witness against yourself
That you have disbelieved by breaking your pledge of allegiance to the Commander of the Faithful
If he says yes, his pledge of allegiance will be renewed and he will be released
If he said no, kill him
Some of them were subject to him
He admits to himself disbelief
To save himself from being killed
Some of them were arrogant and denounced this
He pays his neck as a price for his pride and denunciation
News of this terrible massacre spread
In which several thousand men were killed
A few thousand survived
After they stamped themselves with disbelief
Including that a long-lived sheikh from the Khath’am tribe
He was isolated from both groups, residing beyond the Euphrates
He was taken to the pilgrims along with those who were taken to him
When he entered, he asked him about his condition
He said, "I have been still since this fire broke out."
Retired behind this river
Waiting for the outcome of the fight
When she appeared and won
I came to you pledging allegiance
He said to him, “Fuck you.”
Will you sit lurking and not fight with your prince?
Then he rebuked him, saying:
Bear witness against yourself that you are an infidel
He said: “What a miserable man I am.”
If you have worshiped God for eighty years
Then after that I bear witness against myself of disbelief
He said to him, "Then I will kill you."
He said, "Even if you kill me."
By God, the rest of my life is nothing but the blood of a donkey
He drinks in the morning and dies in the evening
I wait for death in the morning and evening
So do what you want
Al-Hajjaj said to his executioner
Snap his neck
The executioner beheaded him
No one from Al-Hajjaj’s Shiites or his enemy remained in the council
Except for the greatest Sheikh Al-Muammar
inherited from him and had mercy on him
Then he called you Mil bin Ziyad Al-Nakha'i
And he said to him: Do you bear witness against yourself of disbelief?
He said, “By God, I do not bear witness.”
He said, "Then I will kill you."
He said: Judge as you decide
The appointment between us is with God
And after the murder, the reckoning
Al-Hajjaj said to him
That day the argument will be against you, not for you
He told him that if you were the judge on that day
Al-Hajjaj said
Kill him
So he came and was killed
Then another man came to him
He hated him and wanted to kill him
Because his mockery of him was conveyed to him
So he quickly said:
I see a man in front of me
I don't think he bears witness to his disbelief
The man said
Don't involve me and deceive me about myself
I am a disbeliever of the people of the earth
And more disbelievers than Pharaoh with stakes
So let him go
He is desperate to kill him
News of that terrible death spread
In which several thousand steadfast believers were killed
A few thousand survived
Those who are forced to brand themselves as disbelievers
Saeed bin Jubair was certain
If it falls into the hands of pilgrims
Tomorrow between two and no third
Either you snap his neck
Or he confesses to himself as a disbeliever
They are two things that are sweeter and bitter
So he chose to leave Iraq
And to hide from sight
And he continued to strike in God’s vast earth
Hidden from Al-Hajjaj and his eyes
Until he took refuge in a small village in the lands of Mecca
Ten complete arguments remained as they were
It was enough to extinguish the pilgrims' fires
The pilgrims burning in his heart
And to remove the grudges in his soul
However, something happened that no one expected
That is because he came to Mecca
A new ruler of the Umayyads
He is Khalid bin Abdullah Al-Qasri
Saeed bin Jubair’s companions became anxious
Scared of him
Because they knew of his bad behavior
He expected evil at his hands
Some of them came to Saeed and told him
This man came to Mecca
By God, we do not guarantee it against you
So respond to our request and leave this country
He said, “By God, I fled until I became ashamed before God.”
I was determined to stay in this place
And let God do whatever He wants
Khaled did not lie about the bad opinion that people thought of him
As soon as he knew the whereabouts of Saeed bin Jubair
Until he sent him a company of his soldiers
He ordered them to take him in chains to Al-Hajjaj in the city of Wasit
The soldiers closed in on the Sheikh's house
They put the handcuffs in his hands
On the wife of some of his companions
They gave him permission to go to Al-Hajjaj
This soul meets them with peace of mind
Then he turned to his friends and said
I only saw myself killed at the hands of that oppressor
I and two of my friends were on a night of worship
We felt the sweetness of supplication
So we called upon God with what we called upon
We prayed to Him as He wanted us to pray
Then we asked God Almighty to write the martyrdom for us
God has provided it for the owners of both
And I kept waiting for her
Then he had hardly finished speaking
Until a small structure appeared on him
She saw him tied up and the soldiers were leading him away
She clung to him and started crying and sobbing
He gently pushed her away from him and said to her
Tell your mother, daughter, that our date is Paradise, God willing
Then he went
The soldiers reached the imam, the devout and ascetic rabbi
Pious, pure and pious city of Wasit
They brought it to the pilgrims
When he was with him, he looked at him with hatred and said
Fish
And he said
Saeed bin Jubair
And he said
Rather, Shaqi bin Kasir
And he said
In fact, my mother knew my name better than you
And he said
What do you say about Muhammad?
He said
It means Muhammad bin Abdullah, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
And he said yes
He said
Mr. son of Adam
The Chosen Prophet
The best of the rest of humanity
And better than ever
He carried the message and fulfilled the trust
He advised God and His Book
For the general Muslims and their special ones
He said
What do you say about Abu Bakr?
He said
He is the friend
The successor of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
He went well and lived happily
He followed the method of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
He did not change or change
He said
What do you say about Omar?
He said
He is the Farouk
By which God differentiates between truth and falsehood
The best of God and the best of His Messenger
I have followed the approach of my friend
He lived a good life and was killed as a martyr
He said
What do you say about Othman?
He said
He is equipped for the army of hardship
The hoof is the well of Roma
Jupiter is a home for himself in heaven
The son-in-law of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, to my daughter
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, married him
Inspired by heaven
He was killed unjustly
He said
What do you say about Ali?
He said
Cousin of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
The first of the boys to convert to Islam
He is the husband of Fatima Al-Batoul
And Abu Al-Hassan and Al-Hussein
Sir, youth of the people of Paradise
He said
Which of the successors of Banu Amit do you like?
He said
They please their Creator
He said
Which of them is the land of the Creator?
He said
This is known to the One who knows their secrets and secrets
He said
So what do you say in
He said
You know best yourself
He said
Rather, I want to teach you
He said
So it makes you sad and not happy
He said
I must hear from you
He said
I know that you are contrary to the Book of God Almighty
Go ahead with things that you want to gain prestige
It brings you into ruin
And it pushes you into Hell
He said
By God, I will kill you
He said
So you ruin my world
And I will spoil your hereafter
He said
Choose any killers you want
He said
Rather, choose it for yourself, Hajjaj
By God, killers will not kill me
Unless God kills you like her in the afterlife
He said
Do you want me to pardon you?
He said
If it is chastity, then it is from God Almighty
As for you
There is no innocence or excuse for you
Al-Hajjaj became angry and said:
Sword and spear, boy
Saeed smiled
Al-Hajjaj said to him
And what makes you smile?
He said
I am amazed at your boldness before God
And God's dream is upon you
And he said
Kill him, boy
So Saeed faced the kiss and said
I turned my face to the One who created the heavens and the earth, upright
And I am not one of the polytheists
And he said
Turn his face away from the Qiblah
And he said
Wherever you turn, there is the face of God
And he said
They pinned him to the ground
And he said
From it We created you and into it We will return you
From there We will bring you out another time
And he said
Slay the enemy of God
I have never seen a man more knowledgeable about the verses of the Qur’an than him
Saeed raised his hands and said
Oh God, do not allow the pilgrims to dominate anyone again
Only fifteen days have passed since the death of Saeed bin Jubair
Even the meat of pilgrims
The severity of the disease became more severe for him
He would fall asleep for an hour and wake up for another hour
If he takes a short nap
He woke up terrified and screaming
This is Saeed bin Jubair taking my throat
This is Saeed bin Jubair saying: Why did you kill me?
Then he cries and says
What do I have to do with Saeed bin Jubair?
Saeed bin Jubayr responded to me
When he died, he died and was buried in dust
Some of them saw him in a dream
And he said to him
What did God do to you regarding those you killed, Hajjaj?
And he said
God killed me with every single person
He killed me with Saeed bin Jubayr, seventy times
Saeed bin Jubair was killed
There is no one on earth who does not need his knowledge
Ahmed bin Hanben
He says if he sought or said
They were here watering the clouds of our lives
We cannot mention them with exaltation
They left and asked me a question
Is there a star like them in the sky and its hills?
They filled their lives with pride in their actions
Our pampering was abundant among them
