Al-Zuhri, may Allah have mercy on him, said:
0:51
Among those named to us from the tribes
0:55
to whom the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, came,
0:59
and whom he invited and to whom he presented himself, were:

No one gave a harsher reply than Banu Hanifah,
1:36
and no one was gentler than Kindah.

Banu 'Amir Ibn Sa'sa'ah wanted the authority to be theirs after him,
1:45
and Ibn Shibah confronted him
1:48
by saying they had no power to protect him against the Persians.

spent, and defied [the odds],

one hundred and four delegations.

I have enumerated them for you here

so that you may realize the magnitude of the pride and the hope,
4:58
and the pain as well.
5:00
The element of time was crucial.
5:03
Optimistic souls were giving their all,
5:07
and sacrifices were being offered.
5:10
When the preparations were complete,
5:13
the Arabs believed and the believers were victorious.

stands tall before Persia and Rome,

even though the hypocrites once
5:27
doubted that the Muslims would ever reach those lands.
