1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,359 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 2 00:00:03,359 --> 00:00:12,939 Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. 3 00:00:12,939 --> 00:00:20,489 A Summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah). 4 00:00:20,489 --> 00:00:24,820 The Unjust Boycott. 5 00:00:24,820 --> 00:00:26,730 Ibn Ishaq said: 6 00:00:26,730 --> 00:00:31,809 When the Quraysh saw that the companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 7 00:00:31,890 --> 00:00:36,570 had settled in a land where they found security and stability, 8 00:00:36,570 --> 00:00:40,850 and that the Negus had protected those who sought refuge with him, 9 00:00:40,850 --> 00:00:44,369 and that ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, had embraced Islam, 10 00:00:44,369 --> 00:00:52,850 and that he, along with Hamza Ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib, may Allah be pleased with him, were with the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and his companions, 11 00:00:52,850 --> 00:00:56,090 and that Islam began to spread among the tribes, 12 00:00:56,090 --> 00:01:00,170 they gathered and conspired among themselves to write a document. 13 00:01:00,210 --> 00:01:04,730 In it, they pledged against the Banu Hashim and the Banu al-Muttalib, 14 00:01:04,730 --> 00:01:08,890 that they would neither marry their women nor give their own women in marriage to them, 15 00:01:08,890 --> 00:01:13,340 and that they would neither sell anything to them nor buy anything from them. 16 00:01:13,340 --> 00:01:17,739 When they agreed upon this, they wrote it down on a scroll. 17 00:01:17,739 --> 00:01:21,359 Then they made a covenant and bound themselves to it. 18 00:01:21,359 --> 00:01:27,189 They then hung the scroll inside the Ka‘bah to reinforce their commitment. 19 00:01:27,189 --> 00:01:29,950 When the Quraysh did this, 20 00:01:29,950 --> 00:01:35,950 the Banu Hashim and the Banu al-Muttalib withdrew to Abu Talib Ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib. 21 00:01:35,950 --> 00:01:39,510 They entered his mountain pass (shi‘b) and gathered around him. 22 00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:48,170 However, Abu Lahab ‘Abd al-‘Uzza Ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib left the Banu Hashim to join the Quraysh and supported them. 23 00:01:48,170 --> 00:01:51,010 The two Shaykhs (al-Bukhari and Muslim) recorded in their Sahih collections, 24 00:01:51,010 --> 00:01:54,329 on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 25 00:01:54,329 --> 00:01:59,849 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said to us while we were at Mina: 26 00:01:59,849 --> 00:02:03,609 "We shall encamp tomorrow at Khayf Banu Kinanah," 27 00:02:03,609 --> 00:02:06,640 where they had sworn an oath of disbelief. 28 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,919 This was because the Quraysh and the Banu Kinanah 29 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,800 had formed an alliance against the Banu Hashim and the Banu al-Muttalib, 30 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,280 that they would neither intermarry with them nor trade with them, 31 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,840 until they handed over the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, to them. 32 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,360 Abu Dawud added in his Sunan, 33 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:26,919 Al-Zuhri said: 34 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,819 "The Khayf is the valley." 35 00:02:29,860 --> 00:02:32,180 Imam al-Nawawi said: 36 00:02:32,180 --> 00:02:34,819 The meaning of "sworn an oath of disbelief" 37 00:02:34,819 --> 00:02:37,580 is that they formed an alliance and a covenant upon it. 38 00:02:37,580 --> 00:02:42,419 This refers to their alliance to expel the Prophet, peace be upon him, 39 00:02:42,419 --> 00:02:47,340 and the Banu Hashim and the Banu al-Muttalib from Makkah to that mountain pass, 40 00:02:47,340 --> 00:02:49,780 which is the Khayf of Banu Kinanah. 41 00:02:49,780 --> 00:02:53,139 They wrote the famous scroll among themselves, 42 00:02:53,139 --> 00:03:01,229 and in it, they inscribed various forms of falsehood, severing of kinship ties, and disbelief. 43 00:03:01,270 --> 00:03:07,080 The Annulment of the Scroll and the End of the Boycott. 44 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,680 Then, some of the men of the Quraysh who were displeased with that scroll 45 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:15,080 sought to have it annulled. 46 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,199 Hisham Ibn ‘Amr Ibn al-Harith stood up, 47 00:03:18,199 --> 00:03:20,560 and walked to al-Mut‘im Ibn ‘Adi, 48 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,879 along with a group from the Quraysh, 49 00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:25,550 and they responded favorably to his request. 50 00:03:25,550 --> 00:03:30,349 Allah, the Exalted, had informed His Messenger, peace be upon him, 51 00:03:30,349 --> 00:03:32,669 about the matter of their scroll, 52 00:03:32,669 --> 00:03:35,110 and that He had sent termites upon it, 53 00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:40,229 which consumed everything in it that contained injustice, severing of ties, and oppression. 54 00:03:40,229 --> 00:03:43,469 He informed his uncle, Abu Talib, of this. 55 00:03:43,469 --> 00:03:49,979 Abu Talib went out to the Quraysh and told them what his nephew, peace be upon him, had said. 56 00:03:49,979 --> 00:03:53,219 They entered the Ka‘bah and brought down the scroll, 57 00:03:53,219 --> 00:03:58,819 and it was exactly as the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, had described. 58 00:03:58,860 --> 00:04:02,860 Then the Banu Hashim and the Banu al-Muttalib returned to Makkah. 59 00:04:04,469 --> 00:04:09,759 A Summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah). 60 00:04:09,759 --> 00:04:14,580 Authored by Shaykh Musa Ibn Rashid al-‘Azimi. 61 00:04:14,580 --> 00:04:21,480 Presented by the Mawaddah Society in the Kingdom of Bahrain. 62 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:28,360 If the longing of the worlds for one another grows long, 63 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:35,420 the longing for you, O Messenger of Allah, has no limit. 64 00:04:35,420 --> 00:04:41,959 May Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised, 65 00:04:41,959 --> 00:04:48,339 and as long as the lips move in remembrance. 66 00:04:48,339 --> 00:04:50,339 Healing.
