0:00 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
0:03 Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.
0:13 A concise summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).
0:22 The descent of Jibril and the Angel of the Mountains, peace be upon them both.
0:29 Then Allah, glory be to Him and Exalted is He, sent Gabriel, peace be upon him, to His Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.
0:37 And with him was the angel of the mountains, peace be upon him, seeking his command.
0:42 The two Shaykhs, al-Bukhari and Muslim, recorded it in their respective Sahih collections.
0:45 On the authority of the Mother of the Believers, ‘A’ishah, may Allah be pleased with her.
0:49 She said to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,
0:53 Has there ever come upon you a day more difficult than the day of Uhud?
0:58 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:
1:02 I have endured at the hands of your people what I have endured.
1:05 The most difficult experience I endured at their hands was on the day of al-'Aqabah.
1:09 When I presented myself to Ibn 'Abd Yalil ibn 'Abd Kulal.
1:14 So he did not respond to what I desired.
1:17 So I set off, deeply troubled and aimless.
1:20 I did not regain my senses until I found myself at Qarn al-Tha'alib.
1:24 I then raised my head.
1:26 Then, suddenly, I found myself beneath a cloud that had cast its shadow over me.
1:30 I looked, and there was Gabriel, peace be upon him.
1:33 He called out to me and said:
1:35 Allah has indeed heard what your people said to you and how they responded to you.
1:40 The Angel of the Mountains has been sent to you, so that you may command him to do whatever you wish regarding them.
1:46 Then the angel of the mountains called out to me.
1:48 He then greeted me with peace and said,
1:51 O Muhammad
1:52 He then said
1:54 That is as you wish.
1:56 If you wish, I could crush them between the two mountains.
2:00 The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:
2:03 Rather, I hope that Allah will bring forth from their loins those who will worship Allah alone.
2:09 And that you do not associate anything with Him.
2:12 Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir said:
2:14 So, how do we reconcile this?
2:16 And he clarified what Allah the Almighty stated in this noble verse.
2:20 “Say: If I had that for which ye are impatient, then would the case (ere this) have been decided between me and you. Allah is Best Aware of the wrong-doers.” (6:58)
2:26 “Say: If I had that for which ye are impatient, then would the case (ere this) have been decided between me and you. Allah is Best Aware of the wrong-doers.” (6:58)
2:29 And Allah knows best concerning the wrongdoers.
2:33 The answer, and Allah knows best, is as follows:
2:35 That this verse
2:37 This indicates that if the punishment they were demanding were to befall them, it would have occurred.
2:42 Regarding their pursuit of it.
2:44 so that he might inflict it upon them.
2:46 As for the hadith
2:47 It does not contain any indication that they asked for the punishment to befall them.
2:52 Rather, he even offered them the angel of the mountains.
2:54 That is, if Allah wills.
2:56 He brought the two mountains down upon them.
2:58 These are the two mountains of Makkah that flank it from the south and the north.
3:04 For this reason, we sought their company and asked for gentleness to be shown toward them.
3:11 The entry of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, into Makkah under the protection of al-Mut'im Ibn 'Adi.
3:18 The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, returned to Makkah.
3:23 And his people were at the peak of their opposition and hostility toward him.
3:27 He entered it under the protection of al-Mut'im Ibn 'Adi.
3:31 And the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, did not forget.
3:34 This is the favor [attributed] to Mut'im Ibn 'Adi.
3:37 The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said on the day of Badr
3:41 If al-Mut'im Ibn 'Adi were still alive
3:45 Then he spoke to me regarding these people of ours.
3:48 I would have left them for his sake.
3:50 Imam al-Dhahabi said:
3:52 And he was al-Mut'im Ibn 'Adi.
3:54 He is the one who stood up to annul the document of boycott.
3:58 He would show compassion toward the people of the valley and support them in secret.
4:02 He is the one who granted protection to the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.
4:06 When he returned from Ta'if
4:08 until he performed the tawaf for his 'umrah.
4:10 Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar stated in Al-Fath.
4:13 His statement, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,
4:16 I would have left them for his sake.
4:17 Meaning, without any ransom.
4:21 A concise summary of the Prophetic biography (Seerah).
4:26 Authored by the Sheikh.
4:28 Musa bin Rashid al-'Azimi
4:31 And the presentation of the Mawaddah Association.
4:35 In the Kingdom of Bahrain.
4:38 The yearning of the worlds for one another is profound.
4:45 For the longing toward You has a reach that knows no bounds.
4:52 May the blessings of Allah be upon you for as long as the call to prayer is raised.
4:58 And it moved with what remained.
