Events that occurred along the way.
2:00
Events happened to the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,
2:04
and those with him,
2:07
while they were on their migration route to the Prophetic city of Medina.
2:10
Among these events:
2:13
Imam al-Bukhari narrated in his Sahih
2:16
on the authority of Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:
2:19
The Prophet of Allah, peace be upon him, arrived
2:22
in Medina with Abu Bakr riding behind him.
2:25
Abu Bakr was an elderly man who was known,
2:28
while the Prophet of Allah, peace be upon him,
2:31
was a young man who was not known.
2:34
He said: A man would meet Abu Bakr
2:37
and ask, "O Abu Bakr,
2:40
who is this man in front of you?"
2:43
He would reply, "This man
2:46
guides me to the path." The narrator said:
2:49
The person would think he meant the road,
2:52
whereas he meant the path of righteousness.
2:55
The Shepherd and the Offering of Milk.
3:00
The two Shaykhs (al-Bukhari and Muslim) narrated in their Sahih collections,
3:03
with the wording being that of al-Bukhari,
3:06
on the authority of al-Bara’ bin ‘Azib, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said:
3:09
Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, bought
3:12
a saddle from ‘Azib for thirteen dirhams.
3:15
Abu Bakr then said
3:18
to ‘Azib, may Allah be pleased with them both:
3:21
"Tell al-Bara’ to carry my saddle to my house."
3:24
‘Azib replied, "No,
3:27
not until you tell us what you and the Messenger of Allah,
3:30
peace be upon him, did
3:33
when you left Mecca while the polytheists
3:36
were pursuing you." He said, may Allah be pleased with him:
3:39
"We departed from Mecca
3:42
and traveled through the night and the day until it was midday,
3:45
and the heat of the noon sun had peaked.
3:48
The midday heat was intense.
3:51
I scanned the horizon to see if I could spot any shade
3:53
to take shelter in.
3:56
I saw a rock and went toward it.
3:59
I noticed a small patch of shade remaining for it, so I leveled the ground.
4:02
Then I spread a garment for the Prophet, peace be upon him,
4:05
upon it and said to him,
4:08
'Lie down, O Prophet of Allah.'
4:11
The Prophet, peace be upon him, lay down.
4:14
Then I went out to look around me
4:17
to see if I could see anyone pursuing us.
4:20
Suddenly, there was a shepherd driving his sheep toward the rock,
4:23
seeking from it what we had sought.
4:26
I asked him, saying:
4:28
'Whose servant are you, O boy?'
4:30
He replied, 'I belong to a man from Quraysh.'
4:33
He named him, and I recognized him.
4:36
I asked, 'Do your sheep have milk?'
4:39
He said, 'Yes.'
4:41
I said, 'Will you milk some for us?'
4:44
He said, 'Yes.'
4:46
I commanded him, and he restrained one of his sheep.
4:49
Then I told him to brush the dust off its udder.
4:52
Then I told him to brush off his hands.
4:55
He did so like this—
4:57
striking one of his palms against the other.
5:00
He milked a small amount of milk for me,
5:03
meaning a little bit of milk.
5:05
I had prepared for the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him,
5:09
a water skin with a cloth over its mouth.
5:12
I poured the milk until the bottom of it cooled.
5:15
I took it to the Prophet, peace be upon him,
5:19
and found that he had awakened.
5:22
I said, 'Drink, O Messenger of Allah.'
5:25
He drank until I was satisfied.
5:28
Then I said, 'It is time to depart, O Messenger of Allah.'
5:32
He said, 'Yes.'
5:34
So we set off while the people were still pursuing us."

The longing of the worlds for some of them has intensified,
5:48
for the longing toward you has no fathomable extent.
5:55
May Allah send blessings upon you as long as the call to prayer is raised,
6:02
and as long as lips move in remembrance.
