The Commander of the Faithful, Abdul Malik bin Marwan, decided to perform Hajj to the Sacred House of God
0:49
And a visit to the second of the Two Holy Mosques
0:52
Peace be upon the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
0:57
When the month of Dhul-Qa'dah approached
1:00
The great kharifa clenched his stirrups
1:03
He headed to the land of Hijaz
1:06
He is accompanied by the eminent gentlemen of the Umayyad princes
1:10
A group of his senior statesmen and some of his children
1:15
The caravan continued on its way from Damascus to Medina
1:20
Without heir or haste
1:22
Whenever they settled in a house, tents were set up for them
1:27
And I furnished them with mattresses
1:29
Knowledge and memorial councils were held for them
1:32
To increase their understanding of religion
1:35
They pledge their hearts and souls
1:38
With wisdom and good preaching
1:41
When the Caliph reached Medina
1:45
As for its sacred sanctuary
1:48
And peace be upon its resident, Muhammad Ali
1:52
The best prayer and the purest delivery
1:55
He was happy to pray in the pure and beautiful Rawdah
1:59
He tasted the coolness of comfort and peace of mind
2:03
He had never tasted anything like them before
2:06
He decided to end his stay in the city of the Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him
2:12
He found no way to do so
2:15
He was most interested in Medina
2:20
Circles of knowledge that covered the Prophet’s Mosque
2:25
The most distinguished scholars among the senior followers shine there
2:30
As the stars shine in the sky
2:34
This is the episode of Urwa bin Al-Zubayr
2:37
This is the episode of Saeed bin Al-Musayyab
2:40
There is the episode of Abdullah bin Utba
2:44
One day, the Caliph woke up from his nap at a time when he usually did not sleep
2:53
He called his usher and said
2:56
He said, “Maysarah.”
2:58
He said, “At your command, O Commander of the Faithful.”
3:02
He said, “Go to the Prophet’s Mosque, peace and blessings be upon him.”
3:07
Invite one of the scholars to speak to us
3:11
Maysarah went to the Prophet’s Mosque
3:15
He looked at it
3:17
He only saw one episode
3:20
It was mediated by a noble sheikh, over sixty years old
3:23
It has the simplicity of scientists
3:25
Hence their prestige and dignity
3:28
He stopped not far from the ring
3:31
He pointed to the sheikh with his finger
3:34
The sheikh did not turn to him and did not care about him
3:38
He approached him and said
3:40
Did you not see that I am referring to you?
3:42
He said to me
3:45
He said yes
3:46
He said, “What do you need?”
3:49
He said: The Commander of the Faithful woke up and said:
3:53
He said go to the mosque and see
3:55
Do you see anyone from my youth, bring him to me?
3:59
The sheikh said to him
4:01
I am not new
4:03
Maysarah said to him
4:05
But he wants someone to talk to him about
4:09
The Sheikh said
4:11
Whoever wants something will come to him
4:14
There is enough room for it in the mosque
4:17
If he is willing to do so
4:20
And the conversation comes to him
4:22
But he doesn't come
4:24
Then the chamberlain turned back
4:26
He said to the Caliph
4:28
I found nothing in the mosque other than a sheikh
4:31
I pointed at him but he did not get up
4:34
So I approached him and said
4:36
The Commander of the Faithful woke up at this time
4:39
He told me
4:41
Look, do you see any of my youth in the mosque?
4:44
So leave him for me
4:46
He said to me calmly and firmly
4:49
I am not new to it
4:51
There is enough room for it in the mosque
4:54
If he wants to talk
4:57
Abdul Malik bin Marwan sighed
5:00
He stood still
5:02
And he headed inside the house
5:04
And he says
5:06
That is Saeed bin Al-Musayyab
5:08
I wish you had not come and spoken to him
5:11
When he moved away from the council
5:14
And he was inside
5:16
Abdul Malik's youngest son turned around
5:20
And he said
5:22
Who is this that refrains from the Commander of the Faithful?
5:25
He is arrogant to appear before him
5:28
And attend his council
5:30
The world has come to him
5:32
The Roman kings were subject to his prestige
5:35
The older brother said
5:37
The one who proposed to the Commander of the Faithful
5:40
His daughter is for your newborn brother
5:42
He refused to marry her to him
5:45
The younger brother said
5:47
He refused to marry her to Al-Waleed bin Abdul-Malik
5:51
Did he want a higher husband for her?
5:54
From the Crown Prince of the Commander of the Faithful
5:57
And the Caliph of the Muslims after him
6:00
The older brother remained silent
6:02
He did not answer him anything
6:04
The younger brother said
6:06
If he had a sexual intercourse with his daughter
6:08
On the Crown Prince of the Commander of the Faithful
6:11
Did he find enough for her?
6:13
Which suits her
6:15
Or did he prevent her from getting married?
6:18
As some people do
6:20
And he left her sitting at home
6:23
His older brother said to him
6:26
The truth is that I don't know anything about her
6:29
And his experience with her
6:31
One of the sitters turned to them
6:34
From the city's people
6:36
He said: If the prince gives me permission
6:39
She told him all the news
6:42
She married one of the boys in our neighborhood
6:45
He is called Abu Wadaa
6:47
He is our neighbor house by house
6:50
His marriage to her has a funny story
6:53
He told it to me himself
6:55
The brothers said to him
6:57
Give her
6:59
The man said
7:01
Abu Wadaa told me
7:03
He said I was you know
7:05
I stay at the mosque of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
7:09
In pursuit of knowledge
7:11
Stay tuned to Saeed bin Al-Musayyab’s circle
7:14
And people crowded around it on horseback
7:17
So I was absent from the Sheikh’s circle for days
7:21
He checked on me and thought I was sick
7:24
Or show me a viewer
7:26
He asked those around him about me
7:28
He found no news from any of them
7:32
When I returned to him a few days later
7:35
He greeted me and welcomed me
7:38
Where have you been, Abu Wadaa?
7:40
So I said
7:42
My wife died, so I worked on her behalf
7:45
And he said
7:47
Did you not tell us, Abu Wadaa?
7:49
We console you
7:51
We will witness her funeral with you
7:53
We help you in whatever you are in
7:56
I said, may God reward you
7:59
And I wanted to get up
8:01
He kept me going until everyone in the council had left
8:06
Then he told me
8:08
Have you not thought about getting a wife for yourself, Abu Wadaa?
8:13
I said, may God have mercy on you
8:15
Whoever marries his daughter to me
8:17
I am a young man who grew up as an orphan
8:20
And he lived poor
8:22
I only have two or three dirhams
8:26
And he said
8:28
I will marry you, my daughter
8:30
So I held my tongue and said
8:33
You
8:34
Marry me your daughter
8:36
After I found out what I knew about my situation
8:39
And he said yes
8:41
If someone comes to us whose religion and character we are satisfied with, we marry him
8:46
We consider you satisfactory in religion and morals
8:50
Then he turned to whoever was close to us
8:53
And he called them
8:55
When they came to him and were with him
8:58
He praised and praised God Almighty
9:02
Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
9:06
He held me to his daughter
9:08
He made her dowry two dirhams
9:11
I stood up, not knowing what to say out of surprise and joy
9:16
Then I went to my house
9:18
I was fasting that day
9:20
So I forgot my fast and started saying:
9:23
Woe to you, O father!
9:26
What did you make yourself?
9:28
Who do you borrow from?
9:30
From whom you ask for money
9:32
I remained in this state until permission to leave for Morocco
9:36
So I did what was written
9:38
And I sat down to my breakfast
9:40
It was bread and oil
9:43
As soon as I took a bite or two of it
9:46
Until I heard the door knocking
9:49
So I said: Who is Al-Tariq?
9:51
Saeed said
9:54
By God, every person has crossed my mind
9:57
Nesma Saeed I know
9:59
Except Saeed bin Al-Musayyab
10:02
That's because he hasn't been seen for forty years
10:05
Except between his house and the mosque
10:08
So I opened the door
10:10
Then I found myself in front of Saeed bin Al-Musayyab
10:13
So I thought it seemed to him
10:16
There is something about my marriage to his daughter
10:19
And I told him
10:20
Abu Muhammad
10:22
Did you not send it to me and I will come to you?
10:25
And he said
10:26
Rather, you are more deserving of me coming to you today
10:30
So I said, “Be kind to me.”
10:32
He said no
10:34
But I came for an order
10:36
So I said
10:37
And what is it, may God have mercy on you
10:40
And he said
10:41
My daughter has become your wife, according to God’s law, from tomorrow
10:46
I know that there is no one with you
10:49
He comforts you
10:51
I hated for you to spend the night in a place
10:53
And your wife is somewhere else
10:56
So I brought it to you
10:58
So I said, Woe to you!
11:00
You brought it to me
11:01
And he said yes
11:03
I looked and saw that it was standing tall
11:07
He turned to her and said
11:09
Enter your husband’s house, my daughter, in the name and blessing of God
11:14
When she wanted to step
11:17
She stumbled in the emptiness of life
11:20
Until she almost fell to the ground
11:23
As for me
11:24
I stood in front of her, stunned, not knowing what to say
11:29
Then I hastened and preceded her to the bowl containing the bread and oil
11:35
So I removed it from the light of the lamp so that you would not see it
11:39
Then I went up to the roof and called the neighbors
11:43
They approached me and said:
11:45
What's your business?
11:46
So I said
11:48
Saeed bin Al-Musayyab held a marriage contract with his daughter today in the mosque
11:53
He brought it to me now by surprise
11:56
So come, forget it until I call my mother
12:00
She is far from home
12:02
An old woman among them said
12:04
Woe to you, do you know what you're saying?
12:07
I will marry you to Saeed bin Al-Musayyab, his daughter
12:10
And he carried it home for you himself
12:13
He was the one who had a grudge against Al-Walid bin Abdul-Malik
12:17
So I said yes
12:18
And here I have it in my house
12:21
So come and see it
12:24
So the neighbors went to the house
12:26
They hardly believe me
12:29
They welcomed her and forgot her loneliness
12:35
It was only a little while ago that my mother came
12:39
When she saw her
12:41
She turned to me and said
12:43
My face is forbidden from your face
12:45
If you don't leave her to me so I can fix her situation
12:49
Then I will carry her to you just as a man who casts women offers you
12:53
So I said you and what you want
12:57
So I held her there for three days
13:00
Then she married her off to me
13:02
So, she was one of the most beautiful women in the city
13:06
And people memorize the Book of God Almighty
13:10
They narrated them based on the hadith of the Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him
13:14
I know people about the rights of a husband
13:17
So I stayed with her for days without her father or any of her family visiting me
13:23
Then I came to the sheikh’s circle in the mosque
13:27
So I greeted him, and he returned my greetings
13:30
He didn't talk to me
13:32
When the council adjourned and no one remained except me, he said:
13:36
How is your wife, Abu Wadaa?
13:39
So I said
13:41
It is what a friend loves and an enemy hates
13:45
He said, “Praise be to God.”
13:48
When I returned to my house
13:50
I found that he had sent us a large sum of money
13:55
Let us use it in our lives
13:58
Ibn Abdul Malik said:
14:00
This man is strange
14:03
A man from the city said to him
14:06
What is surprising about this, O Prince?
14:09
He is a person who made his life a vehicle for the afterlife
14:13
He bought the remainder for himself and his family in exchange for the lost money
14:17
By God, he did not grieve the son of the Commander of the Faithful towards his daughter
14:22
Nor did he see her as incompetent
14:25
But he feared the temptation of this world for her
14:28
Some of his companions asked him and he said:
14:32
I hesitate to deliver the sermon of the Commander of the Faithful
14:35
And marry your daughter to a common Muslim man
14:39
He said that my daughter is a trust in my possession
14:43
I investigated what I did for her and her well-being
14:48
He was told how
14:50
He said: What do you think of it if it moves to the palaces of the Umayyads?
14:56
She moved between her feathers and her furniture
14:59
The servants, the courtiers, and the maids stood before her
15:04
And to its right and to its left
15:07
Then she found herself the wife of the Caliph
15:11
Where will her religion be on that day?
15:14
A man from the Levant said
15:17
Your friend seems to be a unique type of person
15:21
The civilian man said
15:23
By God, I have never violated the truth
15:26
It is fasting during the day and staying strong at night
15:30
A Hajj of about forty Hajj
15:33
He did not miss the first takbir in the Prophet’s Mosque, peace and blessings be upon him, for forty years
15:41
He was not known to have ever looked at a man’s back while praying during that time
15:47
For maintaining first grade
15:50
He was able to marry any of the Quraysh women he wanted
15:56
He preferred the daughter of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, over all other women
16:01
This is due to his status with the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him
16:06
His narration expanded on his speech
16:09
And the intensity of his desire to take it from him
16:12
He devoted himself to science from an early age
16:16
So he entered upon the wives of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him
16:20
And he was influenced by them
16:22
He studied at the hands of Zaid bin Thabit
16:25
And Abdullah bin Abbas
16:27
And Abdullah bin Omar
16:29
He heard from Othman, Ali and Suhaib
16:32
And other companions of the Holy Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
16:38
And be creative with their morals and be beautiful with their good deeds
16:42
He always had a word he used to say
16:46
Until it became his slogan
16:50
Which is what he said
16:51
The servants did not honor themselves with such obedience to God
16:56
Nor did she insult herself by disobeying them
17:00
Saeed bin Al-Musayyab used to issue fatwas and the Companions are living historians
17:12
Pause and example
17:18
He followed the Messenger if he sought or said
17:23
They were here watering the clouds of our lives
17:28
We cannot mention them with exaltation
17:33
They left and asked me a question
17:38
Is there a star like them in the sky and its hills?
17:43
They filled their lives with pride in their actions
17:48
And the world of selfishness has become apparent to them
