…remembering Badr…

9 Replies

The Battle of Badr is the most important battle in the whole of human history as it firmly established Islam as the only true religion for the whole of humanity till the end of time. It took place on 17 Ramadan 2 A.H, 624 C.E. The beloved holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, together with 313 of his Sahaba (Companions) and angels sent by Allah defeated about 1000 better armed polytheists of the tribe of Quraysh.

We should remind ourselves that Asma’ Ahl Badr (the names of the Muslim warriors of the Battle of Badr) are Jalali (Majestic). They need the Jamal (Beauty) of Salawat (Invocation of Blessings) to cool them. So before we recite these, and after completing the recitation, it is recommended to recite Durood Shareef 100 times. Or instead, we can recite Qasidah al-Burda.  Once we have recited the Salawat, we can come to the Asma’ Ahl al-Badr.

Names of the Muslim Warriors in the Battle of Badr
Please recite Sayyidinaa before each name and Radi Allahu Ta’ala ‘Anhu (Allah is Pleased with Him) after each name.

…The sound system in Masjid al Haram Makkah is the biggest and the most robust sound system on planet earth. Nothing comes close to it at all. The second biggest being the one of Masjid Nabawi…this is the Imam’s Mihrab in Masjid Nabawi…

[detail of where microphones are placed for Ruku and Sajdah]

…SubhanAllah! The technology Allah Ta’ala has blessed the Ummah with so that Adhan and Salat can be heard by millions…not only those present in the Haramain, but for every Adhan and every Salat performed in both of our sacred mosques recordings are available for a billion plus across the entire planet, as well as live televised streams…SubhanAllah! Such is Allah Ta’ala’s mercy and generosity to His creation…

…the entire population of Madinah al Munawwarah would cry when they heard Bilal RadhiAllahu anhu call Adhan…who cries upon hearing this Mubarak call now?? Allah Ta’ala’s mercy is unlimited…it’s our hearts that need fine tuning, Insha’Allah…

…Adhan moves across the globe in never ending waves…rippling hearts from high mountain tops to the deepest of valleys, from elaborate mosques to humble shacks, from desert dwellings to bustling cities, from sophisticated sound systems to crackly recordings…

nevertheless…

…how wondrous it would have been…

…to hear Ibn Umar RadhiAllahu anhu narrate the following from our Noble Nabi SallAllahu alaihi wasallam:
“When the Muslims arrived at Medina, they used to assemble for the prayer, and used to guess the time for it. During those days, the practice of Adhan for the prayers had not been introduced yet. Once they discussed this problem regarding the call for prayer. Some people suggested the use of a bell like the Christians, others proposed a trumpet like the horn used by the Jews, but ‘Umar RadhiAllahu anhu was the first to suggest that a man should call the people for the prayer; so Allah’s Apostle ordered Bilal RadhiAllahu anhu to get up and pronounce the Adhan for prayers.”

[photo from the Mukabbarya platform, located where Bilal RadhiAllahu anhu would call Adhan for Juma'ah. Looking down onto Rowdha Shareef ]

…or to have heard Abu Hurairah RadhiAllahu anhu’s voice as he narrated what he had heard our Blessed Rasul SallAllahu alaihi wasallam say:

“When the Adhan is pronounced Satan takes to his heels and passes wind with noise during his flight in order not to hear the Adhan. When the Adhan is completed he comes back and again takes to his heels when the Iqama is pronounced and after its completion he returns again till he whispers into the heart of the person (to
divert his attention from his prayer) and makes him remember things which he does not recall to his mind before the prayer and that causes him to forget how much he has prayed.”

…or…”Any person who takes a bath on Friday like the bath of Janaba and then goes for the prayer in the first hour, it is as if he had sacrificed a camel in Allah’s cause; and whoever goes in the second hour it is as if he had sacrificed a cow; and whoever goes in the third hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour then it is as if he had offered an egg. When the Imam comes out to begin the Khutba, the angels present themselves to listen to the Khutba.”

…or to have heard the voice of Salman al Farisi RadhiAllahu anhu narrate that he heard our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam say:

“Whoever takes a bath on Friday, purifies himself as much as he can, then uses hair oil or perfumes himself with the scent of his house, then proceeds for the Jumua prayer and does not separate two persons sitting together in the mosque, then prays as much as Allah has written for him and then remains silent while the Imam is delivering the Khutba, his sins in-between the present and the last Friday would be forgiven.”

…but surely a most awesome sound would be to hear our Beloved Al Mustafa SallAllahu alaihi wasallam saying:

“The person who recites Surah Kahf on Fridays, a Nur will appear for him from below the Arsh as high as the skies. This light will help him in the darkness of the day of resurrection . And all the sins which he may have committed from the last Friday till this Friday will be forgiven.”
…and…”Of all the days, Friday is the most virtuous. It is on this day that the trumpet will be blown. Send abundant salawaat upon me on Fridays because they are presented to me on that day.” The Sahabah  RadiAllahu anhum asked: “O Rasulullah! How will they be presented to you when even your bones will not be present after your death?” Rasulullah SallAllahu alaihi wasallam replied: “Allah Ta’ala has made the earth haraam upon the prophets forever.”

…O Lord, please send prayers upon Your comprehensive mercy, and Your complete blessing, and please send prayers upon the mercy to all wolds, O God of all worlds; prayers that keep on counting, and surround everything; and provide us from his blessings. And please open our hearts’ locks with keys from our love for him, and beautify (put “kohl” on) our insights’ eyes with his light, and purify our consciences’ secrets by his vision and closeness, so that we see nothing in existence save You through him, and from the slumber of our inattention we are alerted...

…O Lord, please send prayers upon the one who stood up and completed Your religion, and conveyed Your message, and clarified Your path, and delivered Your endowment, and set the proof for Your Solitariness, and affixed in hearts Your Oneness. He is Your secret preserved by Your Status and Majesty, crowned by the lights of Your secrets and beauty. O Lord, send prayers upon him as much as You cherish him...

…contemplating the life of Abu Bakr As Siddiq RadhiAllahu anhu during the month Allah Ta’ala chose to take him back to Him…by visiting where he would offer the Eid Salat when he was Caliph…

…Our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam said, “The sun never rose nor set on anyone better than Abu Bakr RadhiAllahu anhu except prophets” (Tarikh al-Khulafa’ of Suyuti) and “Abu Bakr RadhiAllahu anhu does not precede you in anything in the way of prayer or fasting but in a secret rooted deep in his heart.” (Manaqib as-Sahaba of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal)…

…reflect upon some of his words of wisdom…

  • Without knowledge action is useless and knowledge without action is futile.
  • Run away from greatness and greatness will follow you.
  • There is greatness in the fear of God, contentment in faith of God, and honour in humility.
  • If you expect Allah Ta’ala’s blessings, be good to His people.
  • Death is the easiest of all things after it, and the hardest of all things before it.
  • Patience is half of faith, and confidence is full faith.
  • The greatest truth is honesty, and the greatest falsehood is dishonesty.
  • Maybe a thing that you do not like is really in your interest. It is possible that a thing that you may desire may be against your interest.
  • He who tastes love of Allah Ta’ala has no taste for the love of the world.
  • He who avoids complaint invites happiness.
  • It is a matter of shame that in the morning the birds should be awake earlier than you.
  • Our abode in this world is transitory, our life therein is but a loan, our breaths are numbered and our indolence is manifest.
  • Extend your charity with humbleness towards the poor for to give charity happily is a sign of acceptance.
  • Weep for the days gone by in which you have but earned little rewards.
  • There is no trouble in patience and there is no benefit in complaining.
  • True generosity is to remove the burdens of Creation and place it upon one’s own shoulders.

Abu Bakr As Siddiq RadhiAllahu anhu used to pray, “O Lord, render the best of my life at its close, the best of my deeds as the last, and the best of my days the day of Your meeting.”

…Banu Najjar…

…approaching Masjid Nabawi from the east, as the sun sets upon what was the area belonging to the Bani Najjar…one of the Khazraj tribes where lady Salma bint Amr, the wife of our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam’s Grandfather Hashim originated from…and so it was here that the Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam as a small boy came with his mother to visit the grave of his father, Abdullah, and her relations…

…many who pledged allegiance, both at the first and second Aqabah meetings, were from Bani Najjar…

…Anas RadhiAllahu anhu reported Allah Ta’ala’s Messenger SallAllahu alaihi wasallam as saying: “Of all clans of the Ansar, that of Banu Najjar is the best.”

…The Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam’s stay with the Banu Najjar was Divine Will and it signified their great excellence…Qaswa, his camel, under Allah Ta’ala’s command did not stop where the Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam’s nearest kinsmen were, and where he stayed as a child with his noble mother Aminah…but she finally knelt in a courtyard that was used for drying dates and owned by two orphans, Sahl and Suhayl…

…when asked about the price for their land the Banu Najjar exclaimed: “We do not want its price except from Allah”…SubhanAllah! such is the rich wealth of our heritage…

…and thus Masjid Nabawi is built on Bani Najjar land…other members of Banu Najjar donated their land for the houses of our Blessed Ummahatul Mu’mineen RadhiAllahu anhum and many of the Muhajireen…SubhanAllah!

…and Hassan ibn Thabit RadhiAllahu anhu, the Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam’s esteemed poet was also from Bani Najjar…his words elicit tears of deep devotion for our Master SallAllahu alaihi wasallam…

When I saw his light shining forth,
In fear I covered my eyes with my palms,
Afraid for my sight because of the beauty of his form.
So I was scarcely able to look at him at all.
The lights from his light are drowned in his light
and his face shines out like the sun and moon in one.
A spirit of light lodged in a body like the moon,
a mantle made up of brilliant shining stars.
I bore it until I could bear it no longer.
I found the taste of patience to be like bitter aloes.
I could find no remedy to bring me relief
other than delighting in the sight of the one I love.
Even if he had not brought any clear signs with him,
the sight of him would dispense with the need for them.
Muhammad is a human being but not like other human beings.
Rather he is a flawless diamond and the rest of mankind is just stones.
Blessings be on him so that perhaps Allah may have mercy on us
on that burning Day when the Fire is roaring forth its sparks.

He was the light and the brilliance we followed,
He was sight and hearing second only to Allah,
By Allah, no woman has conceived and given birth
To one like the Messenger, the Prophet and Guide of His people.
Nor Has Allah created among His creatures,
One more faithful to His sojourner or His promise
than he who was the source of our light.
Blessed in his deeds, just and upright,
O best of mankind, It was though I were in a river,
But now, without you, I have become lonely in my thirst.

…born inside the Ka’abah…

8 Replies

…goose-bumpy…that’s how it is when pondering on the way Allah Ta’ala has planned, is planning and continues to plan…

…a child born in the Ka’abah…the only one ever from the entire history of mankind…approximately five years before our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam…he was from a very affluent family and possessed a sharp intellect…they developed a lasting friendship…time passes…as an adult he purchases a slave from the famous Okaz market place…gifting it to his Aunt…the sister of his father Hazm…the Aunt…is our Noble Lady Khadija RadhiAllahu anha…who marries Muhammad ibn ‘Abdullah and gifts her slave boy…Zayd, to her newly wed husband SallAllahu alaihi wasallam…Hakim ibn Hizam RadhiAllahu anhu was that blessed child to be born inside the Ka’abah…and how could the only one ever to be blessed with such an entry into the world never be destined to be given Hidayah…but it was not until almost twenty years after Prophethood, during the time of Conquest of Makkah that his heart finally submitted…SubhanAllah…goose-bumpy!

Just as we are astonished at the late acceptance of Islam on the part of Hakim, he himself later in life was also amazed. In fact, as soon as he accepted Islam and tasted the sweetness of iman (faith), he began to feel deep regret for every moment  of his life as a mushrik and a denier of God’s religion and of His Prophet.
His son once saw him weeping after his acceptance of Islam and asked: “Why are you weeping, my father’?” “Many things cause me to weep, my dear son. The most grievous is the length of time it took for me to become a Muslim. Acceptance of  Islam would have given me so man opportunities to do good which I missed even if I were to have spent the earth in gold.  My life was spared at the battle of Badr and also at the battle of Uhud. After Uhud. I said to myself. I would not help any  Quraysh against Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of God be upon him, and I would not leave Makkah. Then, whenever I felt like accepting Islam I would look at other men among the Quraysh. Men of power and maturity who remained  firmly attached to the ideas and practices of Jahiliyyah and I would fall in line with them and their neighbors… Oh, how I wish I had not done so. Nothing has destroyed us except the blind following of our forefathers and elders. Why should I not  weep, my son?”

Hakim ibn Hazm performed the Hajj after becoming a Muslim. He took with him one hundred fine camels and sacrificed them all in order to achieve nearness to God. In the following Hajj, he stood on Arafat. With him were one hundred slaves. To each  he gave a pendant of silver on which was engraved: “Free for the sake of God Almighty from Hakim ibn Hazm.” On a third Hajj, he took with him a thousand sheep – yes a thousand sheep and sacrificed them all at Mina to feed the poor Muslims in order to attain nearness to God.

Source…plus more here

Two additional inspiring incidents from Hakim ibn Hazm RadhiAllah anhu’s life, firstly, from before he embraced Islam, at the time when the Quraysh boycotted the Muslims.

One day Abu Jahl, who was continually on the look out for those trying to assist the Muslims, met Hakim, RadhiAllahu anhu with a slave carrying a bag of flour, and they appeared to be making for the dwellings of the Bani Hashim. He accused them of taking food to the enemy and threatened to denounce Hakim before Quraysh. While they were arguing, Abu l-Bakhtari, another man of Asad, came and asked what was the matter, and when it was explained to him he said to Abu Jahl: “It is his Aunt’s flour and she hath sent to him for it. Let the man go on his way.” Neither Hakim nor Abu -Bakhtari were Muslims, but the passing of this bag of flour from one member of the clan of Asad to another could concern no one outside that clan. The interference of the Makhzumite was outrageous and intolerable; and when Abu Jahl persisted Abu l-Bakhtari picked up a camel’s jaw bone and brought it down on his head with such force that he was half stunned and fell to the ground, whereupon they trampled him heavily underfoot, to the gratification of Hamzah RadhiAllahu anhu who happened to come by at that moment.

And secondly after his Hidayah:

Abu Hiam says that they had never heard of anyone in Madinah who provided more transport for people proceeding in the path of Allah than Hakim bin Hizm RadhiAllahu anhu. Two Bedouins once came to Madinah to ask for someone to provide them with transport to proceed in the path of Allah. When they were directed to Hakim bin Hizm RadhiAllahu anhu they approached him while he was with his family. When he asked them what they required and they duly informed him, he told them not to be hasty and to wait until he comes out to see them. (When he came out) He was wearing clothing that was brought from Egypt. It resembled a spider’s web and cost four dirhams. He took his staff with him and his slaves also accompanied him. Each time he passed by a rubbish dump he used the end of his staff to pick up any piece of cloth that could be used to patch the satchels of the camels going out in the path of Allah. He would then dust off the cloth and hand it over to his slave saying: “Keep this piece of cloth to mend the satchels.”

One of the Bedouins said to the other: “Oh dear! Save us from him! By Allah! All this man has with him are pieces of cloth from rubbish dumps.” The other said: “Shame on you! Do not be hasty. Let us first wait and see.” Hakim bin Hizm RadhiAllahu anhu then took them to the market place where he saw two large, fat pregnant she camels. He purchased them along with their supplies and said to his slave: “Use the  pieces of cloth to mend any of the satchels that need mending.” Thereafter he loaded on the camels some food , wheat and fat, Furthermore he gave the two men money for their expenses and made over the camels to them. The one Bedouin then said to his companion: “By Allah! I have never seen a better collector of cloth pieces than this man!”

…the sonorous rolling waves of Adhan pulse across Madinatun Nabi during these winter days as the thrum and whirr of air conditioners no longer pervades the air space…the acoustics from the Masjid Nabawi Muaththins is clearly audible above all the local masaajid…vibrating deep within the heart and soul…hardly an Adhan is called without thoughts of how it must have been when Sayyiduna Bilal RadhiAllahu anhu was calling people to prayer…calling them to success…the voice most loved by our Blessed Rasul SallAllahu alaihi wasallam announcing the times for Salat…the Haram Adhan pierces the heart…so imagine the effect of the heavenly sound of Bilal’s voice…how the people of Madinah cried upon hearing him once again after his brief return from Shams the following the time of Al-Mustafa SallAllahu alaihi wasallam…imagine!

Sayyid al-Mu’azzineen (Leader of the Mu’azzins), Imam al-Aashiqeen, The great devotee, faithful companion and Mu’azzin of the beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam, Hadrat Sayyiduna Bilal al-Habashi Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu is a famous and exalted Sahabi who accepted Islam in its early days in Makkah al-Mukarramah. When he accepted Islam, the non-believers placed great difficulties upon him which he bore with great forbearance in his youth. His father’s name was Rabah and his mother’s name was Hamamah.
His birth place is Abyssinia (Ethiopia) and this is why he is known as Habshi (the old name for Abyssinia is Habsh). Born in the late 6th century, the preferred view is that Bilal Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu was 43 years old at the time of Hijra but it has been suggested by some that he could have been as old as 53.
He was either a slave of a woman in Makkah who had made Umayyah bin Khalaf her agent in the matters of Hadrat Bilal or Umayya Ibn Khalaf himself when he accepted Islam. The Kaafirs of Makkah persecuted him severely. When Hadrat Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu came to know about the pain and anguish which he underwent at the hands of the Kuffaar, he bought him and set him free. One of the many emancipated slaves of Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu, Bilal Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu was known for his beautiful voice and was given the honour by the Holy Prophet Muhammad SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam of being the first Mu’azzin of Islam. He remained constantly in the company of beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam. He was at the service of the needs of beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam. Muhaddith Hakim and Hafidh Abu Nu’aym also regarded him as one of the Ashaab of al-Suffah.
After he had accepted Islam, he participated with beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam in the battle of Badr and in all other battles. He called the Adhaan and he was the Mu’azzin of Masjid al-Nabawi as long as he remained with beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam. His greatness and excellence is mentioned in numerous books of Ahadith.

One day at the time of Fajr, beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam asked Hadrat Bilal Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu, ‘O Bilal, Show me one action that you have done after accepting Islam, whose virtue is above all other actions, because I have heard your footsteps in Jannah’. Hadrat Bilal Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu explains that I have not done any action whose virtue is more than the others. But it is true, that during the day or night, whenever I made Wudhu, I made it my duty to read some Nafl Salaah, and from amongst the Salaah I read, I verily read Tahiyyatul Wudhu (Salaat after Wudhu)” when beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi wa Sallam heard this, he said that it was because of this action that he had attained such status.

…Maulana Rumi RahmatuLlahi alaihi penned the following poetic lines expressing his reaction to the torture and horror that Sayyiduna Bilal RadhiAllahu anhu endured at the hands of his Jewish master until he was freed by Abu Bakr Siddique RadhiAllahu anhu:

When Abu Bakr advised him towards silence and secrecy,
Bilal repented again,
But when love overwhelmed, he swallowed the repentance.
It is the message of the troubled heart.
Without You there can be neither peace nor comfort.

Beloved Mustafa embraced Bilal and held him against his chest. The ecstasy Bilal felt! Who can ever imagine that?

…Insha’Allah we are all blessed with hearing Sayyiduna Bilal RadhiAllahu anhu’s melodious voice when we are in Jannah…along with Prophet Dawud singing from the Zabur and our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alauhu wasallam reciting Qur’an…culminating with Allah Ta’ala directly presenting us with His Divine Words…AMEEN AMEEN AMEEN!!

…may we reflect upon the honour and dignity of the esteemed first Muaththin…his unflinching testimony to the Oneness of Allah Ta’ala…and be inspired to boost our own proclamation of faith at this time of the anniversary of his demise…Insha’Allah…

JUMA’AH MUBARAK!

…Dhul Hijjah 1432…

…the final month of the Islamic calendar…Dhul Hijjah…containing the blessed ten days when righteous actions are more beloved to Allah than any other days…

It has been narrated that fasting one of these days is equal to the reward of fasting for a whole year and standing in one of these nights in prayer is equal to standing on Laylat al-Qadr. Also the reward for actions in these days is multiplied seven hundred times.

…this is also the month to reflect upon the greatness of two of our Shining Stars, Sayyidna ‘Umar and Sayyidna ‘Uthman RadhiAllahu anhumaa:

Both their hearts were pierced with Hidayah, stepping from darkness into light during the month of Dhul Hijjah, both were from noble and influential tribes but both denounced the glitter of this Dunya, both are from the Ashurah Mubasharah, two of the ten promised Jannah. With our Beloved Rasulullah SallAllahu alaihi wasallam they both stood on Jabal Uhud when it trembled, fought in battles alongside him, sat in palm groves, drank from wells, dined in his company, devotedly studied at his feet, both heard the pebbles hymning Shahadah, both shared the highest degrees of humility, modesty, asceticism, piety, forbearance generosity, knowledge and justice. Both were from the rightly guided Caliphs, both had verses of the Qur’an Majeed revealed relating to them, both initiated extensions to Masjid Nabawi, both met their martyrdom during the month of Dhul Hijjah. Volumes have been penned on these luminous and faithful residents of Paradise. Stars that will continue to shine till the last heart beats in this temporary existence. May we be guided by the noble examples of ‘Umar ibn Al-Khattab, Abu Hafs and ‘Uthman ibn Affan, Dhul Noorayn RadhiAllahu anhuma.

Insha’Allah return to the Shining Stars archive for Ahadith, stories and sayings of these two noble predecessors RadhiAllahu anhumaa…accounts that inspire hearts to emulate their wisdom and adopt their ways, especially during these blessed ten days when righteous actions are more beloved to Allah than any other days…and when rewards for actions in these days are multiplied seven hundred times…SubhanAllah!

Allah give us the ability to fill these days with acts of goodness that bring us closer to Him. Allah help us to follow in the footsteps of His Chosen One in all that we do inwardly and outwardly, may Allah bless him and his family, Companions and all those that follow him until the end of time.

O Allah send blessings upon our Master Muhammad as much as the eyes see, as much as the earth becomes verdant after rainfall, the number of people making Hajj and Umra, making the talbiya, shaving their heads, making tawaf around the Ancient House and kissing the Stone and upon his family and companions in every instant for ever the number of Your creation, to Your satisfaction, the weight of Your throne and the amount of ink of Your words.
