In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
0:15
Mawaddah Association is pleased
0:18
To present to you pictures from the lives of the Companions
0:22
By Abd al-Rahman Rafat al-Basha
0:25
May God have mercy on him
0:27
Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani, may God be pleased with him
0:47
This is the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, reaching the outskirts of Yathrib
0:52
After a long period of eagerness and anticipation
0:56
And here they are, the people of the good city
0:59
They crowd in the paths and on the roofs of houses
1:03
They shouted loudly with joy at meeting the Prophet of Mercy
1:07
And his friend
1:09
Here are the little girls of the city
1:12
They come out with tambourines in their hands and longing in their eyes
1:17
Echoing trills
1:19
The full moon is upon us
1:21
From the folds of farewell
1:24
We must be thanked
1:26
What he calls to God is called for
1:28
This is the procession of the Holy Prophet moving between the rows
1:32
A masterpiece of longing
1:34
And surrounded by eager hearts
1:37
Tears of joy and smiles of happiness are scattered around him
1:42
But Uqba Ibn Amer Al-Juhani
1:45
He did not witness the procession of the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
1:49
He was not happy to be received by the recipients
1:53
This is because he had gone out to the desert with his spoils
1:58
To take care of her there
2:01
After the anger became intense for her and she feared death
2:05
It is all the debris of the world he has
2:08
But the joy that overwhelmed Medina
2:12
It soon spread to its valleys, near and far
2:16
It shone in every good spot
2:20
Its tidings reached Uqba Ibn Amer Al-Juhani
2:24
He is with his spoils far away in the desert
2:27
Let us leave the talking to Uqba Ibn Amer
2:30
To tell us the story of his meeting with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
2:35
Uqba said
2:37
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, came to Medina
2:41
And I have my spoils to take care of
2:44
As soon as she heard the news of his arrival
2:47
Until I left her and went to him, without hesitating about anything
2:51
When I met him, I said:
2:53
Pledge allegiance to me, O Messenger of God
2:56
He said who are you?
2:58
I said Uqba Ibn Aamer Al-Juhani
3:02
He said, "Whatever I like to you."
3:05
You pledged allegiance to me, a Bedouin pledge of allegiance
3:07
Or the sale of immigration
3:09
I said, “Rather, a pledge of emigration.”
3:11
So the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, pledged allegiance to me
3:15
On what he pledged allegiance to the immigrants
3:18
I stayed with him one night
3:20
Then I went to my sheep
3:22
There were 12 men who converted to Islam
3:25
We live far from the city
3:27
Let us graze our sheep in its valleys
3:30
We said to each other
3:32
There is no good in us if we do not provide
3:35
On the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
3:38
Day after day
3:40
To give us understanding of our religion
3:42
We hear what is revealed to him from heaven
3:45
Let each one of us go to Yathrib every day
3:48
And let him leave his bottle for us
3:50
So we take care of it for him
3:52
So I said
3:53
Go to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
3:56
One after another
3:58
And let the one who goes away leave his sheep to me
4:01
Because I was very sorry for my spoils
4:04
Than to leave it to anyone
4:06
Then my friends started to become one of them
4:09
After another on the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
4:13
And he leaves his sheep for me to take care of for him
4:16
So if he comes
4:18
I heard from them
4:20
I learned jurisprudence from them
4:22
But I soon came back to myself and said:
4:26
Woe to you!
4:27
Secure for spoils that neither fatten nor enrich
4:31
You miss the company of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
4:36
And taking from him orally, without intermediary
4:39
Then I gave up my swag
4:42
I went to the city to stay in the mosque
4:45
Next to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
4:49
Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani had never thought of it
4:53
When he made this decisive and resolute decision
4:57
After a decade, he would become one of the greatest scholars of the Companions
5:03
And a reader from the elders of readers
5:05
And a prominent leader of the conquest
5:09
One of the numbered rulers of Islam
5:12
He wasn't just imagining
5:15
He gives away his spoils
5:18
He goes to God and His Messenger
5:20
He will be the vanguard of the army that conquers the nation of the world, Damascus
5:26
He takes a home for himself among its gardens and looks at Thomas’ door
5:31
It was not just a vision
5:34
That he would be one of the leaders who would open the Green Emerald of the Universe
5:40
Egypt
5:41
And he will become its ruler
5:44
He plans for himself a house at the foot of Mount Mokattam
5:48
These are all matters hidden in the conscience of the unseen
5:53
Only God knows it
5:55
Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani joined the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
6:01
The shadow is necessary for its owner
6:04
He used to take the reins of his mule wherever he went
6:07
It is in his hands that we move
6:10
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, often followed him behind him
6:15
Until he was called Bardif, the Messenger of God
6:18
Perhaps the Holy Prophet descended upon him from his mule
6:22
To be the one riding
6:24
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, is the one who walks
6:28
An obstacle occurred, he said
6:30
I was taking the reins of the mule of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, in some of the forests of Medina
6:37
He said to me
6:38
O obstacle, do not ride
6:41
I understood that I should say no
6:43
But I feared that this would be a disobedience to the Messenger of God
6:47
I said yes, O Prophet of God
6:50
So the Messenger got off his mule and I mounted
6:53
In compliance with his order
6:55
And make him walk
6:57
Then she soon left it
7:00
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, rode
7:03
Then he told me
7:05
Oh obstacle
7:06
Shall I not teach you two surahs the likes of which have never been seen?
7:10
I said, “Yes, O Messenger of God.”
7:12
So read to me
7:14
Say I seek refuge in the Lord of creation
7:16
And say, I seek refuge in the Lord of people
7:18
Then the prayer was held
7:20
So he went forward and prayed with them
7:23
And he said
7:24
Read them whenever you sleep and whenever you get up
7:27
Uqba said
7:29
I still read them, and my life continues
7:33
He made Uqba Ibn Aamir Al-Juhani
7:36
His concern is two things
7:38
Knowledge and jihad
7:40
He went to them with his soul and body
7:43
He gave them of himself
7:45
The most generous and generous allowance
7:47
As for the field of science
7:49
He became tired of Manahil
7:51
The Messenger of God is sweet wealth
7:53
Until tomorrow it is recited and updated
7:56
A hypothetical jurist
7:58
An eloquent writer and poet
8:01
He was one of the best people to recite the Qur’an
8:04
And when night fell
8:07
And the universe calmed down
8:09
Turn to the Book of God
8:11
He recites from His clear verses
8:14
So the hearts of the honorable companions listened to his recitation
8:18
And their hearts submit to Him
8:20
Their eyes overflow with tears from the fear of God
8:24
Omar bin Al-Khattab invited him one day
8:27
And he said
8:28
Show me something from the Book of God, O Uqba
8:31
And he said
8:33
Listen, O Commander of the Faithful
8:35
Then he started reciting to him whatever verses of the Wise Remembrance he could
8:39
Omar is crying
8:41
Until tears wet his beard
8:44
Uqba left a Qur’an written in his handwriting
8:48
This Qur’an remained until a long time ago
8:52
Located in Egypt
8:54
In the mosque known as Uqba bin Amer Mosque
8:57
It came at the end
8:59
Written by Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani
9:02
This Qur’an of Uqba is one of the oldest Qur’an found on earth
9:08
But it lost, among other things, our precious heritage
9:12
We are ignorant of it
9:15
As for the field of jihad
9:18
It is enough for us to know that Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani
9:22
He witnessed with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, Uhud and the battles that followed
9:28
And he was one of the bravest commandos
9:32
Those who endured the day of the conquest of Damascus were the most dreadful and greatest calamity
9:36
Abu Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah rewarded him for his good performance
9:41
That he sent him a good tidings to Omar bin Al-Khattab in Medina to give him good news of the conquest
9:46
He stayed for eight days and nights
9:50
From Friday to Friday
9:52
It feeds traffic without interruption
9:55
Al-Farouq even heralded the great conquest
9:58
Then he was one of the leaders of the Muslim armies that conquered Egypt
10:03
So the Commander of the Faithful rewarded him, Muawiyah bin Abi Sufyan
10:07
By making him governor for three years
10:11
Then he directed him to invade the island of Rhodes
10:14
In the Mediterranean Sea
10:16
Uqba bin Aamir al-Juhani was very passionate about jihad
10:21
He was aware of the hadith of jihad in his heart
10:24
He specialized in narrating it to Muslims
10:27
And he was always good at shooting
10:30
Even if he wanted to be distracted, he would be distracted by shooting
10:35
When Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani fell ill, he died
10:39
He is in Egypt
10:40
He gathered his sons and advised them
10:43
My son, I forbid you to do three things, so keep them
10:48
Do not accept talk about the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
10:52
Except for those who trust him
10:54
And do not borrow, even if you wear the cloak
10:58
And do not write poetry
11:00
So distract your hearts from the Qur’an with it
11:03
When death overtook him
11:06
They buried him at the foot of Mokattam
11:08
Then they went to his estate to search it
11:11
So he left behind seventy-few bows
11:15
With each bow a horn and arrows
11:18
He advised them to work for the sake of God
11:22
May God bless the face of the reader, the scholar and ghazi Uqba bin Amer Al-Juhani
11:28
And reward him on behalf of Islam and Muslims with the best reward
