1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:12,140 Pause and reflect upon the Companions, the scholars, and the prominent figures. 2 00:00:12,140 --> 00:00:16,140 A new challenge: who am I? 3 00:00:16,140 --> 00:00:22,699 I am the daughter of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 4 00:00:22,699 --> 00:00:25,699 I am the third in birth order among his daughters. 5 00:00:25,699 --> 00:00:30,859 I was born in Makkah six years before the Prophetic mission. 6 00:00:30,859 --> 00:00:35,859 I embraced Islam alongside my mother, Khadijah, may Allah be pleased with her, when she embraced it. 7 00:00:35,859 --> 00:00:39,859 I was besieged in the Shi'b with the Banu Hashim when they were besieged. 8 00:00:39,859 --> 00:00:43,859 I pledged allegiance to my father when the women pledged allegiance to him. 9 00:00:43,859 --> 00:00:47,899 And when he, peace be upon him, migrated to Madinah, 10 00:00:47,899 --> 00:00:52,899 He sent Zayd Ibn Harithah, may Allah be pleased with him, to bring us. 11 00:00:52,899 --> 00:00:54,899 So I migrated with them. 12 00:00:54,899 --> 00:01:00,859 My father married me to his cousin, 'Utaybah Ibn Abi Lahab. 13 00:01:00,859 --> 00:01:07,859 When Allah the Exalted revealed in condemnation of Abu Lahab and his wife His words in Surah al-Masad: 14 00:01:07,859 --> 00:01:14,239 “The power of Abu Lahab will perish, and he will perish.” (111:1) 15 00:01:14,239 --> 00:01:20,239 “His wealth and gains will not exempt him.” (111:2) 16 00:01:20,239 --> 00:01:24,239 “He will be plunged in flaming Fire,” (111:3) 17 00:01:24,239 --> 00:01:29,239 "And his wife, the carrier of firewood," 18 00:01:29,239 --> 00:01:35,359 "Around her neck is a rope of twisted fiber." 19 00:01:35,359 --> 00:01:40,359 At that time, Abu Lahab forced his son 'Utaybah to divorce me. 20 00:01:40,359 --> 00:01:43,420 He had not yet consummated the marriage with me. 21 00:01:43,420 --> 00:01:48,420 'Utaybah came to my father, peace be upon him, and said to him: 22 00:01:48,420 --> 00:01:52,420 "I disbelieve in your religion and I have parted with your daughter." 23 00:01:52,420 --> 00:01:55,579 "You do not love me, and I do not love you." 24 00:01:55,579 --> 00:01:58,579 Then he assaulted him with his hand and his tongue. 25 00:01:58,579 --> 00:02:00,620 Then he left. 26 00:02:00,620 --> 00:02:03,620 My father invoked a curse upon him, saying: 27 00:02:03,620 --> 00:02:09,159 "I ask Allah to set upon you a dog from among His dogs." 28 00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:15,159 Later, 'Utaybah set out in a trade caravan with his companions to the Levant. 29 00:02:15,159 --> 00:02:18,159 When they were on the road, 30 00:02:18,159 --> 00:02:20,159 They heard the roar of a lion. 31 00:02:20,159 --> 00:02:22,159 'Utaybah became terrified. 32 00:02:22,159 --> 00:02:25,159 His limbs began to tremble. 33 00:02:25,159 --> 00:02:28,159 They asked him, "What are you afraid of?" 34 00:02:28,159 --> 00:02:32,159 He said, "Muhammad has invoked a curse upon me," 35 00:02:32,159 --> 00:02:34,159 "And his supplication is never rejected." 36 00:02:34,159 --> 00:02:39,319 They said to him, "Do not worry, we will protect you." 37 00:02:39,319 --> 00:02:42,319 When they felt reassured that the lion had gone, 38 00:02:42,319 --> 00:02:45,319 They slept and surrounded 'Utaybah. 39 00:02:45,319 --> 00:02:47,319 They placed him in their midst. 40 00:02:47,319 --> 00:02:49,319 Then the lion came. 41 00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:52,319 It sniffed all of their heads, 42 00:02:52,319 --> 00:02:54,319 Until it reached 'Utaybah. 43 00:02:54,319 --> 00:02:58,500 It crushed his head and finished him off. 44 00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:00,500 In Madinah, 45 00:03:00,500 --> 00:03:04,500 My father married me to 'Uthman Ibn 'Affan, may Allah be pleased with him, 46 00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:06,500 After the death of his first wife, 47 00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:09,500 Who was the sister of the one who is older than me. 48 00:03:09,500 --> 00:03:12,500 And he, peace be upon him, said: 49 00:03:12,500 --> 00:03:17,500 "I did not marry 'Uthman to her except by revelation from heaven." 50 00:03:17,500 --> 00:03:20,729 I remained with him for six years, 51 00:03:20,729 --> 00:03:25,729 Until my death reached me in the ninth year after the Hijrah. 52 00:03:25,729 --> 00:03:28,979 I was twenty-seven years old. 53 00:03:28,979 --> 00:03:33,979 When the news of my death reached my father, peace be upon him, 54 00:03:33,979 --> 00:03:36,020 He grieved for me. 55 00:03:36,020 --> 00:03:40,020 Then he said to the women who were washing me: 56 00:03:40,020 --> 00:03:44,020 "Wash her an odd number of times—three or five," 57 00:03:44,020 --> 00:03:46,020 "With water and lotus leaves," 58 00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:51,020 "And put camphor, or something of camphor, in the final wash." 59 00:03:51,020 --> 00:03:53,020 "When you have finished," 60 00:03:53,020 --> 00:03:55,020 "Inform me." 61 00:03:55,020 --> 00:03:58,020 When they washed me, they informed him. 62 00:03:58,020 --> 00:04:00,020 He gave them his waist-wrapper, 63 00:04:00,020 --> 00:04:06,020 Which is the garment he, peace be upon him, would tie around his waist. 64 00:04:06,020 --> 00:04:09,020 And he said, "Shroud her in it." 65 00:04:09,020 --> 00:04:13,020 Meaning, place it directly against her skin. 66 00:04:13,020 --> 00:04:18,110 Then he, peace be upon him, prayed over me himself. 67 00:04:18,110 --> 00:04:22,110 And he sat by my grave with his eyes shedding tears. 68 00:04:22,110 --> 00:04:24,459 So, who am I? 69 00:04:24,459 --> 00:04:32,399 Share
