Salam again, I'm your Sister InshaAllah [Image: smile.gif]


MashaAllah you have pretty much answered them all. I'd like to tell you a bit more about Abu Ubaydah, I love him for Allah's sake:


Abu Ubaydah obviously did not want to kill his father but in the actual battle between faith in God and polytheism, the choice open to him was profoundly disturbing but clear, he tried hard to avoid coming near his father. In a way it could be said that he did not kill his father--he only killed the polytheism in the person of his father and self-defense.


It is concerning this event that God revealed the following verses of the Quran:


<b>"You will not find a people believing in God and the Last Day making friends with those who oppose God and His messenger even if these were their fathers, their sons, their brothers or their clan. God has placed faith in their hearts and strengthened them with a spirit from Him. He will cause them to enter gardens beneath which streams flow that they may dwell therein. God is well pleased with them and they well pleased with Him. They are the party of God. Is not the party of God the successful ones?" (Surah al-Mujactilah 58:22)</b>



After the beloved Prophet had passed away, the companions gathered to choose a successor at the Saqifah or meeting place of Banu Saaadah. The day is known in history as the Day of Saqifah. On this day, Umar ibn al-Khattab said to Abu Ubaydah, "Stretch forth your hand and I will swear allegiance to you for I heard the Prophet, peace be upon him say, <b>'Every ummah has an amin (custodian) and you are the amin of this ummah.' "</b>



Another incident happened when Abu Ubaydah was in Syria leading the Muslim forces from one victory to another until the whole of Syria was under Muslim control. The River Euphrates lay to his right and Asia Minor to his left.


It was then that a plague hit the land of Syria, the like of which people had never experienced before. It devastated the population. Umar dispatched a messenger to Abu Ubaydah with a letter saying:


<b>"I am in urgent need of you. If my letter reaches you at night I strongly urge you to leave before dawn. If this letter reaches you during the day, I strongly urge you to leave before evening and hasten to me.</b>


<b><i>When Abu Ubaydah received Umar's letter, he said, "I know why the Amir al-Mumineen needs me. He wants to secure the survival of someone who, however, is not eternal." So he wrote to Umar:</i></b>


<i>"I know that you need me. But I am in an army of Muslims and I have no desire to save myself from what is afflicting them. I do not want to separate from them until God wills. So, when this letter reaches you, release me from your command and permit me to stay on.''
</i>


When Umar read this letter tears filled his eyes and those who were with him asked, <b>"Has Abu Ubaydah died, O Amir al-Mumineen?"</b>
"No," said he, <b><i>"But death is near to him."</i></b>


Umar's intuition was not wrong. Before long, Abu Ubaydah became afflicted with the plague. As death hung over him, he spoke to his army:


<b>"Let me give you some advice which will cause you to be on the path of goodness always. "Establish Prayer. Fast the month of Ramadan. Give Sadaqah. Perform the Hajj and Umrah. Remain united and support one another. Be sincere to your commanders and do not conceal anything from them. Don't let the world destroy you for even if man were to live a thousand years he would still end up with this state that you see me in.</b>


Peace be upon you and the mercy of God."


Abu Ubaydah then turned to Muadh ibn Jabal and said, "O Muadh, perform the prayer with the people (be their leader)." At this, his pure soul departed. Muadh got up and said:


<b>"O people, you are stricken by the death of a man. By God, I don't know whether I have seen a man who had a more righteous heart, who was further from all evil and who was more sincere to people than he. Ask God to shower His mercy on him and God will be merciful to you. "</b>



He was described as the Amin or Custodian of Muhammad's community. His full name was <b>Aamir ibn Abdullah ibn al-Jarrah</b>
He was known as Abu Ubaydah. Of him Abdullah ibn Umar, one of the companions of the Prophet, <b>said</b>:


<b>"Three persons in the tribe of Quraysh were most prominent, had the best character and were the most modest. If they spoke to you, they would not deceive you and if you spoke to them, they would not accuse you of Lying: Abu Bakr as-Siddiq, Uthman ibn Affan and Abu Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah
</b>"


For question 5, do you know the womans name Qutuz? anyone?



Quizzie Quiz - Qutuz - 08-16-2004


sorry sister


i'm really confused about the name of the woman since i was 10 years old...either she is Asia or Zulaicha (one of the two names is Moses Pharao wife name but don't know which)


by the way..she was not the wife of the Egyptian minister as people think...she was his favorite slave woman...or maybe his slave woman before he married her..and God knows the best.


but saying that he was just his favorite slave is more valid because it explain his mellow reaction to what she wanted prophet Joseph to do with her.


p.s: wanted to add the Ubayda Ibn Al Jarrah (ra) is also one of the ten companions promised to enter heavn.

Mash a Allah Jazaki Allah Khairan Intuition for this presentation.


Qutuz Asiyah is Pharao's wife and Zulaykha to the best of my knowledge is the one involoved in Yusuf's story (woman of Al Azeez)


Well if u allow me I have an idea, let us keep it to one question per post, this way Insh a Allah answers can be easily found by the reader, in case the poster have to also produce the answer still will be much easier. Then Insh a Allah info will accumulate in a more ordered fashion, what do u all say?????

Asalamalaykum ya muslimeen


Yes her name was Zulaikha. Qutuz, she was The chief minister's wife, she couldn't give him any children but he stayed married to her regardless. Maybe she was a slave before he married her, but i'm sure that she was his wife at the time when yusuf a.s was at their palace.




Quote:but saying that he was just his favorite slave is more valid because it explain his mellow reaction to what she wanted prophet Joseph to do with her.

What do you mean Qutuz? Are you saying if she would have been his wife she would not have done a such thing i.e what she tried to do to prophet yusuf a.s?


Muslimah that sounds nice to me sister, shall we [Image: smile.gif]



Quizzie Quiz - Qutuz - 08-17-2004


i will ask a question


hmmm....but before i ask the question i would like to say that this quiz can be more important than just a trivial quiz....we can learn alot about our history...there is so much glory we don't know about in 1400 years...


well...here is the question


the importance of Al Zalaqa battle (الزلاقة) is by no means less than the importance of Yermuk,Qadisya,Ayn Jaloot or Hattin battles......where did Al Zalaqa battle took place and what was its results?


Bonus question : what was the enemy army leader name?


please search for the answer if you don't know it...let it be a chance to learn more about a great event in our history which is sadly ignored in our educational system for no obvious reasons.


wa Asslamy Aalykum.

as salam alykom


Ok I did my home work Alhamdulelah


The battle took place in Az-Zallaqah is one of the lands of Andalusia [now Spain], near Cordova.


The leader of the enemy was Al-Azfounsh


Did I do any good Qutuz [Image: unsure.gif] But I enjoyed reading about it. Sobhan Allah, reading about such incidents actually is very inspiring, but one ends up saying "mata nasru Allah" When is the victory of Allah???
