Pictures from the lives of the followers
By Dr. Abdul Rahman Raafat Al-Basha
May God have mercy on him
Salem bin Abdullah bin Omar
May God have mercy on him
Here we are in the caliphate of Al-Farouq
May God be pleased with him
And here is the city of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
It is full of spoils of war
What Muslims have achieved through Islam
Yazdgerd, the last king of the Persians
It contained jewel-encrusted crowns
And their areas are paved with pearls
Their swords are adorned with rubies and coral
Something that has never been seen before
And he was with these huge, enormous treasures
A large crowd of Persian captives
Among them were Yazdgerd's three daughters
So Ali, may God be pleased with him, bought them for a huge price
He presented to them a group of the brightest young Muslims
One of them chose Hussein bin Ali
The tribe of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
She gave birth to Zayn al-Abidin
The second one chose Muhammad bin Abi Bakr Al-Siddiq, may God be pleased with him
Al-Qasim gave birth to him
One of the city's seven jurists
The third chose Abdullah bin Omar, Caliph of the Muslims
She gave birth to him safely, a grandson, Al-Farouq
The most similar people were named after him
So let us look at the pictures and highlights from the life of Salem bin Abdullah bin Omar bin Al-Khattab
May God be pleased with him, his father, and his grandfather
Salem bin Abdullah was born in Medina
The resting place of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and his place of migration
Its atmosphere is fragrant with the spices of prophecy
Sparkling with the age of revelation, a staircase and ashes
And in the care of his father, the ascetic servants
Fasting at dawn is the strength of the suhoor prayer
And with his age-old morals, he creates
His father saw in him the virtues of piety and the signs of guidance
He saw in his behavior the characteristics of Islam and the morals of the Qur’an
Above what he saw in his brothers
So he loved him with a love that dominated his heart
And it mixed with the grains of his heart
Even the blamers blamed him for it
He said they blame me for Salem and I blame them
The skin between the eye and nose is intact
And he approached him, spreading what his chest contained
From the hadith of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
He gives him understanding of the religion of God and fills him with the Book of God
Then he was pushed to the Holy Mosque
It was the mosque of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
It is still populated by a large group of great companions
Wherever it hurts, he turns away from one of its pillars
A thousand stars appear before him, shining brighter than the age of prophecy
And a fragrance of the fragrance of the seductive message
And wherever he cast his eye or cast his ear
He saw good and heard righteousness
Thus, he was given the opportunity to learn from a group of the venerable Companions
At their head is Abu Ayyub al-Ansari
And Abu Hurairah
And Abu Rafi
And Abu Lubab
And Zaid bin Al-Khattab
This is in addition to his father, Abdullah bin Omar
May God be pleased with them all
It soon became one of the prominent figures of the Muslims
And a great master from among the masters of the followers
One of the city's jurists
Those whom Muslims fear in their religion
And they take from them the law of their Lord
They return to them in the dilemmas of religion and this world
The governors gave orders to their judges
If you present the issues to them
To pay it to them
If the issue comes to them
They all gathered and looked at her
Then the judges only decide according to their opinion
He was the happiest governor ever
The best of them are modern ones
And the closest to people's hearts
The most reliable among the caliphs
Who takes the advice of Salem bin Abdullah?
And is committed to directing
As for those who disobey his command
The city was waiting for them
And do not bear their guardianship
From this, Abdul Rahman bin Al-Dahhak
Governor of the city during the succession of Yazid bin Abdul Malik
Fatima was the daughter of Al-Hussein, may God be pleased with him
And he looked at his soul in heaven
She was widowed and was cut off from her children
Then Ibn Al-Dahhak approached her
And he proposed to her to himself
She said, “By God, I don’t want to get married.”
And I sat on my son
I stood against them
So he started insisting on her
She tricks herself into apologizing to him without being rude
For fear of his evil
When he found it, he rejected it
He told her
By God, if you do not accept me as your husband
I will take your eldest son
And I would flog him on charges of drinking alcohol
She consulted Salem bin Abdullah about her matter
He advised her to write to the Caliph a letter complaining to the governor
She mentions her kinship with the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
May her soul rest in peace
So I wrote the book
She carried it out with her messenger to Damascus
The Messenger hardly proceeded with the book
Until the Caliph's order came to Ibn Hormuz
He treated him as a cash register in the city
To submit an account to him
So Bin Hormuz bid farewell to his rights holders
So he asked permission to see Fatima bint Al-Hussein as a farewell and said
I am going to Damascus
Do you have any need?
She said yes
She informs the Commander of the Faithful about what he received from Ibn al-Dahhak
And what he does to me
And he does not respect the sanctity of the scholars of Medina
Especially Salem bin Abdullah
Ibn Hormuz blamed himself for visiting her
He did not want to bear her complaint
From Ibn al-Dahhak to the Caliph
Bin Hurmuz arrived in Damascus
On the same day the messenger arrived
Who carries the book of Fatima bint Al-Hussein
When he entered upon the Caliph
Ask him about the conditions of the city
He asked him about Salem bin Abdullah
And his companions were jurists
And he told him
Is there something important that should be known?
Or dangerous news should be mentioned
He did not mention anything of the story of Fatima bint Al-Hussein
He did not indicate anything about the governor’s position on Salem bin Abdullah
While he was sitting with him, his account was raised for him
When the chamberlain entered and said
May God fix the prince
At the door is the messenger of Fatima, daughter of Al-Hussein
Then Ibn Hurmuz's face changed and he said
May God prolong the prince’s survival
Fatima is the daughter of Hussein
I brought a message to you
And tell him the news
As soon as the Caliph heard his statement
Until he got off his bed and said
I don't have it
Didn't I ask you about the city's affairs and news?
Would you have such news and keep it from me?
So he apologized to him for forgetting
Then he gave permission for the Messenger to enter upon him
So he took the book from him and opened it
He started reading it with sparks flying from his eyes
He started hitting the ground with a bamboo in his hand while saying:
Ibn Al-Dahhak dared to criticize the family of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
He did not hesitate to advise Salem Ibn Abdullah regarding them
Is there a man whose voice I can hear while he is being tortured in the city?
I am on my bed in Damascus
It means the voice of Ibn Al-Dahhak
So he was told
Yes, Commander of the Faithful
The city has none other than Abd al-Wahid Ibn Bishr al-Nazari
Give it to him
He now resides in Taif
He said: Yes, by God, yes, it is hers
Then he called for paper and wrote with his own hand
From the Commander of the Faithful, Yazid Ibn Abd al-Malik
To Abd al-Wahid Ibn Bishr al-Nazari
Peace be upon you
As for after
I have given you the city
If this book comes to you
So he went to her and isolated Ibn al-Dahhak from her
A fine of forty thousand dinars was imposed on him
He tortured him until I heard his voice from the city
The mailman took the book
He continued walking towards Taif via Medina
When he reached the city
He did not enter its governor, Ibn al-Dahhak
He did not greet him
The governor became frightened within himself
He sent to him and invited him to his home
He asked him why he came
He did not reveal anything to him
Ibn al-Dahhak raised the edge of his bed and said:
Look
He looked and saw a bag of dinars
And he said
This is a thousand dinars
And you have God’s covenant and covenant
If you tell me your destination and what is in your hand
I will pay it to you
And I will keep it secret
Tell him
So he gave him the money and told him
Wait here for three nights
Until I reach Damascus
Then I proceed with what I ordered
Ibn al-Dahhak straightened his stirrups
And he just left town
He went on riding his mounts towards Damascus
When he reached it
He entered upon my brother, Caliph Maslamah Ibn Abd al-Malik
He was the lord of Jericho, the owner of Nagda
When he was in his hands, he said to him
I am at your side, Prince
He said: I give good tidings, what about you?
He said that the Commander of the Faithful was displeased with me
For a moment, it turned away from me
Any slip
The next morning I greeted Yazid and said:
I have a need from the Commander of the Faithful
Yazid said
Your every need is met
Unless it is in Ibn al-Dahhak
He said, “By God, I came to you only for his sake.”
He said, “By God, I will never spare him.”
He said: What is his fault?
He said, “He was exposed to Fatima, daughter of Al-Hussein.”
He threatened her, threatened her, and exhausted her
He did not hesitate to advise Salem Ibn Abdullah about her matter
All the city's poets began to satirize him
Its reformers and scholars began to criticize it
He said Muslimah
You are alone with him, O Commander of the Faithful
Yazid said
Once he returns to the city
Let its new governor implement my order
And makes him an example for other governors
The people of the city were extremely happy with their new governor
He decided to implement the order of the Caliph Ibn al-Dahhak
And they became more attached to him
When they find him, the doctrines of goodness go away
It does not interrupt any of their affairs
Unless he consulted Al-Qasim Ibn Muhammad Ibn Abi Bakr about it
And Salem bin Abdullah bin Omar
So welcome to the Caliph of the Muslims, Yazid Ibn Abd al-Malik
A manifestation of the great Islam
Who created this proverb?
And he made those men
And until another meeting with the venerable follower
Salem bin Abdullah bin Omar bin Al-Khattab
Salem was confident
He often talks loudly about pious men
Ibn Saad
They were here watering the clouds of our lives
Their remembrance is exalted in us
They left and cast a question in my conscience
Is there a star like them in the sky and its hills?
They filled their lives with pride in their actions
The world of the ego flourished among them
