00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.359
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:12.939
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

00:00:12.939 --> 00:00:17.579
A Concise Summary of the Prophetic biography.

00:00:17.579 --> 00:00:27.579
The beginning of Islam among the Ansar, may Allah be pleased with them.

00:00:27.579 --> 00:00:31.660
When Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, willed to manifest His religion,

00:00:31.660 --> 00:00:35.299
To honor His Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:00:35.340 --> 00:00:37.820
And to fulfill the promise He had made to him,

00:00:37.820 --> 00:00:42.100
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, went out during the pilgrimage season,

00:00:42.100 --> 00:00:45.469
Just as he used to do every season.

00:00:45.469 --> 00:00:48.030
While he was at al-'Aqabah,

00:00:48.030 --> 00:00:50.229
He met a group from the Khazraj tribe,

00:00:50.229 --> 00:00:53.079
For whom Allah intended goodness.

00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:57.079
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to them,

00:00:57.079 --> 00:00:58.880
"Who are you?"

00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:02.219
They replied, "A group from the Khazraj."

00:01:02.219 --> 00:01:05.620
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, then asked,

00:01:05.659 --> 00:01:08.060
"Are you allies of the Jews?"

00:01:08.060 --> 00:01:09.900
They answered, "Yes."

00:01:09.900 --> 00:01:13.579
The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said,

00:01:13.579 --> 00:01:16.540
"Will you not sit so that I may speak with you?"

00:01:16.540 --> 00:01:18.329
They replied, "Certainly."

00:01:18.329 --> 00:01:20.219
So they sat with him,

00:01:20.219 --> 00:01:22.859
And he invited them to Allah, the Almighty and Majestic,

00:01:22.859 --> 00:01:25.140
Presented Islam to them,

00:01:25.140 --> 00:01:28.140
And recited the Qur'an to them.

00:01:28.140 --> 00:01:31.659
Among the things Allah had ordained for them regarding Islam

00:01:31.659 --> 00:01:35.060
Was that the Jews lived among them in their lands,

00:01:35.099 --> 00:01:38.019
And they were people of the Scripture and knowledge,

00:01:38.019 --> 00:01:41.859
While the Khazraj were polytheists and idolaters.

00:01:41.859 --> 00:01:45.260
The Jews had often gained the upper hand over them in their land,

00:01:45.260 --> 00:01:48.180
And whenever there was a dispute between them,

00:01:48.180 --> 00:01:49.739
The Jews would say to them,

00:01:49.739 --> 00:01:53.900
"A Prophet is about to be sent now, whose time is at hand;

00:01:53.900 --> 00:01:59.049
We shall follow him and kill you with his help, just as 'Ad and Iram were destroyed."

00:01:59.049 --> 00:02:02.689
So when the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, spoke to

00:02:02.689 --> 00:02:04.450
That group,

00:02:04.489 --> 00:02:06.530
And invited them to Allah,

00:02:06.530 --> 00:02:08.729
They said to one another,

00:02:08.729 --> 00:02:09.969
"O my people,

00:02:09.969 --> 00:02:15.650
Know, by Allah, that this is the very Prophet the Jews warned you about;

00:02:15.650 --> 00:02:18.409
Do not let them reach him before you."

00:02:18.409 --> 00:02:21.330
They responded to his invitation,

00:02:21.330 --> 00:02:26.740
Believing in him and accepting the Islam he presented to them.

00:02:26.740 --> 00:02:29.580
These men from the Khazraj

00:02:29.580 --> 00:02:31.659
Were among the wise men of Yathrib,

00:02:31.699 --> 00:02:35.979
Exhausted by the civil war that had recently passed,

00:02:35.979 --> 00:02:39.620
And whose flames were still burning.

00:02:39.620 --> 00:02:46.060
They hoped that his message, peace be upon him, would be the cause of ending the war.

00:02:46.060 --> 00:02:50.259
They said to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:02:50.259 --> 00:02:52.819
"We have left our people,

00:02:52.819 --> 00:02:57.580
And there is no tribe more divided by enmity and evil than they are.

00:02:57.580 --> 00:03:00.780
Perhaps Allah will unite them through you.

00:03:00.780 --> 00:03:02.500
We shall return to them,

00:03:02.500 --> 00:03:04.699
Invite them to your cause,

00:03:04.699 --> 00:03:09.659
And present to them this religion which we have accepted from you.

00:03:09.659 --> 00:03:12.139
If Allah unites them upon it,

00:03:12.139 --> 00:03:14.900
Then there will be no man more honored than you."

00:03:14.900 --> 00:03:18.900
Then they departed from the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,

00:03:18.900 --> 00:03:21.340
Returning to their lands,

00:03:21.340 --> 00:03:27.490
Having believed and affirmed the truth.

00:03:27.490 --> 00:03:31.250
The names of this noble group of the Khazraj,

00:03:31.250 --> 00:03:34.900
May Allah be pleased with them.

00:03:34.900 --> 00:03:39.860
This noble group consisted of six men from the Khazraj,

00:03:39.860 --> 00:03:42.340
As mentioned by Ibn Ishaq,

00:03:42.340 --> 00:03:45.539
And they were from the Banu al-Najjar:

00:03:45.539 --> 00:03:49.060
As'ad Ibn Zurarah, may Allah be pleased with him,

00:03:49.060 --> 00:03:52.300
And 'Awf Ibn al-Harith, may Allah be pleased with him,

00:03:52.300 --> 00:03:54.020
Who is the son of 'Afra',

00:03:54.020 --> 00:03:55.960
Which was his mother's name.

00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:57.960
From the Banu Zurayq:

00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:00.479
Rafi' Ibn Malik Ibn al-'Ajlan,

00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:02.539
May Allah be pleased with him.

00:04:02.539 --> 00:04:04.419
From the Banu Salamah:

00:04:04.460 --> 00:04:08.000
Qutbah Ibn 'Amir, may Allah be pleased with him.

00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:10.599
From the Banu Haram Ibn Ka'b:

00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:14.080
'Uqbah Ibn 'Amir, may Allah be pleased with him.

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:16.639
And from the Banu 'Ubayd Ibn 'Adi:

00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.480
Jabir Ibn 'Abd Allah Ibn Ri'ab,

00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:21.439
May Allah be pleased with him.

00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:25.240
He is not the famous Jabir Ibn 'Abd Allah Ibn 'Amr Ibn Haram,

00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:26.920
May Allah be pleased with him,

00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:28.319
The well-known one,

00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:33.240
Who is one of those who narrated many hadiths from the Prophet, peace be upon him.

00:04:35.060 --> 00:04:39.060
A Concise Summary of the Prophetic biography,

00:04:39.060 --> 00:04:44.350
Authored by Sheikh Musa Balrashid al-'Azmi,

00:04:44.350 --> 00:04:48.420
And presented by the Mawaddah Association,

00:04:48.420 --> 00:04:51.639
In the Kingdom of Bahrain.

00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:57.639
If the longing of the worlds for some of their own is long,

00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:04.699
The longing for you, O Prophet, has no limit.

00:05:04.699 --> 00:05:11.279
May Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,

00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:20.430
And as long as lips move with the remainder of the remembrance.
