In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Mawaddah Association is pleased
To present to you pictures from the lives of the Companions
Id al-Rahman Rafah al-Pasha
May God have mercy on him
Abu Dharn Al-Ghafari, may God be pleased with him
In Wadi Wadan, which connects Mecca to the outside world
The Ghaffar tribe was camping
Ghaffar used to live in that small hostel
Which the caravans that seek Quraysh trade make for it
Going to or returning from the Levant
Perhaps she lived by cutting off these caravans
If she doesn't give her what pleases her
Jundub Ibn Junada was nicknamed Abu Dharr
One of the sons of this tribe
But he was distinguished by his boldness of heart
Sober mind and foresight
And he was extremely distressed by these idols
Which his people worship instead of God
He denounces the corruption of religion that the Arabs found
And the triviality of belief
He looks forward to the emergence of a new prophet
It fills people's minds and hearts
He brings them out of darkness into light
Then she came to Abu Dharr
And in its beginnings is the news of the new Prophet
Who appeared in Mecca
He said to his brother Anis
Anis
Go, I don't care, to Mecca
He stopped at the news of this man who claims to be a prophet
And he receives revelation from heaven
Listen to something he said and bring it to me
Anis went to Mecca
He met the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
And he heard from him
Then he returned to the desert
Abu Dhar met him eagerly
And ask him about the news of the new prophet eagerly
He said, “By God, I saw a man calling for good morals.”
He says words that are not poetry
He said to him: What do people say about him?
He said: They say he is a magician, a priest, and a poet
Abu Dharr said, “By God, you have not healed my poor man.”
And you didn't fulfill my need
Are you sufficient for my children until I go and look into his matter?
And he said yes
But be careful among the people of Mecca
Abu Dhar provided for himself
He carried a small waterskin with him
The next day, he headed to Mecca wanting to meet the Prophet
And stand on his own experience
Abu Dhar reached Mecca
He is anxious and afraid of its people
News of the Quraysh's anger at their gods reached him
And he abused them with everyone he spoke to himself
By following Muhammad
So he hated to ask anyone about Muhammad
Because he didn't know
Will this official be from his Shiites or from his enemy?
And when the night came
Lay down in the mosque
Then Ali bin Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him, passed by him
So he knew he was a stranger
He said: Are you a mother to us, man?
So he slept with him and spent the night with him
In the morning, he carried his waterskin and supplies and returned to the mosque
Without either of them asking his friend about anything
Then Abu Dharr spent his second day without getting to know the Prophet
When evening came, he went to bed in the mosque
Then Ali, may God be pleased with him, passed by
He said to him, “Is it time for the man to know his home?”
Then he liked it with him, so he spent the second night with him
Neither of them asked his friend anything
When it was the third night
Ali said to his friend
Don't you tell me about what brought you to Mecca?
Abu Dharr said: If you give me a covenant
To guide me to what I asked for I did
So Ali gave him what he wanted of a covenant
Abu Dharr said, “I went to Mecca from far away places.”
I want to meet the new prophet
And hear something he says
Ali's secrets, may God be pleased with him, were released
He said, “By God, he truly belongs to the Messenger of God.”
And it is and it is
When we wake up, follow me wherever I go
If I see something I fear for you
I stood as if I was spilling water
If I go, follow me until you enter my entrance
He did not allow Abu Dharr to lie down all night
Longing to see the Prophet
He was eager to listen to something that was revealed to him
In the morning, Ali and his guest went to the house of the Holy Prophet
Abu Dharr went behind him to stop him
He did not hesitate to do anything until he came to the Prophet
Abu Dharr said: Peace be upon you, O Messenger of God
The Messenger said, May God’s peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you
Abu Dharr was the first to greet the Messenger with the Islamic greeting
Then it became widespread after that
The Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, approached Abu Dharr
He invites him to Islam and reads the Qur’an to him
It wasn't long before I announced the word of truth
He entered the new religion before he left his place
He was the fourth of three to convert to Islam, or the fifth of four
We will leave the talking to Abu Dharr
To tell us the rest of his story himself
He said, “I stayed with the Messenger of God in Mecca after that.”
He taught me Islam and taught me some of the Qur’an
Then he said to me: Do not tell anyone in Mecca that you have converted to Islam
I fear that they will kill you
So I said, “By the One in Whose hand is my soul.”
I will not leave Mecca until I come to the mosque
And I shout the call to truth among the Quraysh
The Messenger remained silent
I came to the mosque and the Quraysh were sitting talking
So I reached out to them and called at the top of my voice
O people of Quraysh!
I bear witness that there is no god but God
And that Muhammad is the Messenger of God
My words barely touched the people's ears
So they all panicked
They got up from their seats and said
You have this finger
They came up to me and beat me to death
Then Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib overtook me
Uncle of the Prophet
He jumped on me to protect me from them
Then he approached them and said
Woe to you, would you kill a man from Ghaffar?
And pass your convoys over them
So they left me
When I woke up, I came to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
When he saw what was wrong with me, he said:
Did I not forbid you from declaring your Islam?
So I said, O Messenger of God
It was a need in my soul, so I fulfilled it
And he said
Join your people
Tell them what you saw and what you heard
And invite them to God
Perhaps God will benefit them and reward you for them
If you hear that I have appeared
So come to me
Abu Dharr said
I divorced until I came to the homes of my people
My brother Anis met me
And he said
What did you do?
I said
I made sure I converted to Islam and believed it
It was not long before God opened his heart and said
I have no desire to leave your religion
I have converted to Islam and also believed
Then we came to our mother and invited her to Islam
And she said
I have no desire to leave your religion
I also converted to Islam
Since that day
The faithful family set out to pray to God in Ghaffar
Don't get tired of it and don't get tired of it
Even safer than Ghaffar, there are many people
Or prayer was performed among them
A team of them said
We remain in our religion
Even when the Messenger came to Medina, we converted to Islam
When the Messenger came to Medina, they converted to Islam
He said, peace and blessings be upon him
Ghaffar, may God forgive her
They converted to Islam, may God bless them
Abu Dharr resided in his desert
Until Badr, Uhud and Khandaq passed
Then he came to the city
He went to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
He asked his permission to serve him
So he gave him permission
He enjoyed his company and was happy to serve him
The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, remained
He affects and honors him
He only met him once with a handshake
He was weak in his face
When the Noble Messenger joined the Supreme Comrade
Abu Dharr could not wait to stay
In Medina
After she left her master
And I became desolate from his guidance
He traveled to the desert of Damascus
He resided there for the duration of the caliphate of Al-Siddiq and Al-Farouq
May God be pleased with them and him
And in the caliphate of Othman
He stayed in Damascus
He saw people's interest in the world
And their indulgence in luxury
What astonished him and prompted him to denounce it
So Othman bin Affan summoned him to Medina
So he came to her
But he soon became fed up with people's desire for this world
People were very distressed by it
And his denunciation of them
Othman ordered him to move to Al-Rabza
It is a small village in the city
So he went to her
He lived there away from people
Ascetic from what they have in their hands of the worldly goods
Adhering to what the Messenger and his two companions were upon
Of preferring what remains over what is fleeting
One time a man walked in on him
So he started turning the tide in his house
He found no enjoyment in it
And he said
O Abazar
Where is your luggage?
And he said
We have a house there
It means the afterlife
We send him our favor
The man understood what he meant and told him
But you must have enjoyment as long as you remain in this house
It means the world
He replied
But the owner of the house won't let us in
The Emir of Syria sent him three hundred dinars
And he told him
Use it to relieve yourself
He returned it to him and said
Didn’t the Emir of the Levant find a servant of God more insignificant to him than me?
In the thirty-second year of the Hijra
The hand of the Menon took control of the ascetic worshipper
Which the Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, said
I didn't say anything stupid
And I didn't stay green
There is no man more truthful than Abu Dharr
I didn't say anything stupid
And I didn't stay green
There is no man more truthful than Abu Dharr
Muhammad and the Messenger of God
