Stop.

Get to know the Companions, the scholars, and the prominent figures.

A new challenge: Who am I?
0:16
I was one of the poor among the Companions.
0:21
I was short and plain in appearance.
0:24
I was poor and of unknown lineage.
0:27
Yet, I had a sense of humor.
0:29
The Prophet, peace be upon him, loved me.
0:33
Once, he said to me:
0:35
"Will you not get married?"
0:37
I replied, "And who would marry me, O Messenger of Allah?"
0:41
He, peace be upon him, said:
0:44
"I will marry you off."
0:46
I said:
0:48
"In that case, you will find me unsellable, O Messenger of Allah."
0:51
He replied:
0:53
"But in the sight of Allah, you are not unsellable."
0:57
One day, the Prophet, peace be upon him, said to a man from the Ansar:
1:04
"Marry your daughter to me."
1:06
The Ansari man was overjoyed and said:
1:09
"Yes, and with all honor, O Messenger of Allah."
1:14
Then the Prophet, peace be upon him, said:
1:17
"I do not want her for myself."
1:20
"I want her for this man."
1:22
And he pointed to me.
1:24
When the man saw me,
1:26
he hesitated and said:
1:28
"Let me consult her mother."
1:31
When he consulted her, she said:
1:34
"No, by Allah!"
1:36
"We will never marry her to him."
1:38
The girl sensed what was happening.
1:40
She asked her parents:
1:42
"Who has proposed to you on my behalf?"
1:44
Her mother informed her.
1:46
She said:
1:48
"Would you reject the command of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him?"
1:53
"Give me to him."
1:55
"For Allah will not let me go to waste."
1:58
Her father went to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,
2:02
and informed him.
2:04
So the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, married her to me.
2:08
And he said:
2:10
"O Allah, pour goodness upon them in abundance."
2:14
"And do not make their life a struggle."
2:18
After that, there was not
2:20
a woman who possessed more wealth and charity than she did.
2:24
A few days after my marriage,
2:28
the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, went out
2:31
on a military expedition.
2:33
I went out with him.
2:35
When Allah granted him victory,
2:37
he said to his Companions:
2:39
"Do you miss anyone?"
2:41
They said:
2:43
"We miss so-and-so."
2:45
"And we miss so-and-so."
2:47
Then he said:
2:49
"Look again, do you miss anyone?"
2:51
They said, "No."
2:53
So the Prophet, peace be upon him, said:
2:56
"But I miss so-and-so."
2:59
Meaning me.
3:01
"Search for him among the fallen."
3:03
They searched for me,
3:05
and they found me.
3:07
They said, "O Messenger of Allah,"
3:09
"here he is, beside seven"
3:11
"of the polytheists."
3:13
The Prophet, peace be upon him, came to me
3:17
and said, "He killed seven,"
3:19
"then they killed him."
3:21
"He is of me, and I am of him."
3:23
"He is of me, and I am of him."
3:25
"He is of me, and I am of him."
3:27
"He is of me, and I am of him."
3:29
"He is of me, and I am of him."
3:31
Then the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, placed me
3:35
upon his forearm.
3:37
And he dug my grave.
3:39
I had no bed
3:41
other than the forearm of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him.
3:45
Then he, peace be upon him, placed me
3:49
into my grave with his noble hands.
3:51
So, who am I?
