PART 1 #BiographyOfRasul

Why Learn Sīrah of the Prophet (s)?

Sīrah (story) of the Prophet (s) aids you in knowing the him (s). If you don't know him, you will never be able to deliver your responsibilities towards him (s).

1/10

Your responsibilities towards the Rasūl (s) according to the Judge Iyādh (544H d) are:

• To believe in him
• To follow his example
• To love and revere him
• To honor, venerate, & respect him
• To assist him and yeild to his call

2/10

These are his RIGHTS upon every Muslim, and as you already know, rights are subject to question by Allāh Jallā wa 'Alā on the day of judgment.

These rights can hardly be delivered with justice, except for the one who knows the Prophet (s).

3/10

Hence, you find that scholars hold his biography at high esteem.

Sidina Ali bn Hussain bn Ali said "we were thought the sīrah the way we were thought the Qur'an.

4/10

Sa'd bn Abi Waqqas (s) used to teach his children about the battles of the Prophet (s) saying "these are the traditions of your forefathers so learn them".

5/10

One of the greatest boundaries to loving the Prophet (s) is actually getting to know him.

Amr bn Aws (r) said "before I knew the Prophet, I despised him severely, but after I got to know him, he became the most beloved person to me in the entire world".

6/10

Even non-Muslims who took out time to study his biography end up feeling love, inclination and respect for him. How much more the Muslims?

Loving the Prophet (s) is a compulsion & it is soooo easy because the Prophet (s) is an embodiment of everything lovable.

7/10

جَمَعْتَ وَجُودًا هَيْبَــــةً وَجَـــلاَلاَ
وَأَبْصَرْتُ مِنْ ذَا بَهْجَةً وَجَمَـالاَ

You (RasūluLlāh SAWS) have gathered all goodness, glory and majesty, and I have seen therefrom joy and beauty.

The Prophet (s) is handsome, radiant, charismatic Merciful, brave,

8/10

shy, upright, pure of character, etc.

If you love people due to looks, Rasul is the most handsome.
If it is due to bravery, he is at the forefront.
If it is for intelligence, he is superior.

Simply put, he is an embodiment of all praiseworthy traits (s).

9/10

Also, learning his seerah is Ibadah. It is rewarded for. By learning his seerah, we gain light, rahama, Iman, and lots more.

Hence this is indeed important venture. May Allah ease our affairs.

To be continued, in sha Allah.

PART 35 #BiographyOfRasul

Year 10 A. H.

The sharp and pungent proclamation read out by Ali during Hajj season of the ninth year of migration at Mina, on behalf of the Prophet (s) had a very deep and quick effect.

1/13

The tribes of different regions of Arabia, which had so far not submitted to Islam, on account of enmity and grudge, and rather persisted in the illogical rejection, became helpless and sent their representatives to Madinah.

2/13

No less than 72 tribes were sent, & the particulars of each discussion is recorded in history.
In less than 4 months, the entire Hijaz came under the banner of Islam and not a single idol-temple or idol or idolater was left in it.

PART 34 #BiographyOfRasul

Year 9 AH. Continued

While the Prophet was away in Tabuk, some hypocrites built a mosque, called Masjidul Zirar near Masjidul Qubah and started parallel prayers.

1/9

The Prophet ordered Masjid Zirar to be razed to the ground, its beams to be burnt, and its rubbish thrown there for some period.

This was a blow to the hypocrites who later broke up. Abdullah bin Ubayy, their sole supporter, died 2 months after the Battle of Tabuk.

2/9

The Prophet (s) was out with his business when he learnt about the condition of his son Ibrahim, so he returned home & took him from his mother, Mariya, placed him on his laps where little Ibrahim died. The Prophet (s) was very much saddened by his death.

A Brief Review of the Story so far

Since today is our 10th day, and the last part just before the main Prophethood, we will take a quick look at some issues so far.

1/14

The miracles of RasuluLlah (s) had started to manifest even before his earthly Prophethood. In fact, his miracles began before his birth. This is referred to as "Irhãsãt", which is differentiated from "Mu'jiza", with the latter occurring in the hands of a Prophet.

2/14

Some of these mind blowing miracles are:

• Protection of his ancestral lineage from sins and zina and their preservation upon the right path.
• Protection of the Ka'bah from destruction by the Yemenite King Abraha. This is mentioned in the Qur'an Sur Fil Q105.

PART 9 #BiographyOfRasul

The Dawn of Prophethood

Life in the eyes of the Prophet (s) seemed unreal. He was a unique jewel in the midst of mere gravels.

Ignorance was wide spread, and nearly everyone had abandoned honorable character.

1/10

It was an age of ignorance (Nahiliyyah) in which, generally speaking, moral rectitude & spiritual code had gone into oblivion.

Superstitious rites & dogmas had replaced the tenets of the Divine religion. Only a few (his ancestors) remained upon the religion of Ibrahim.

2/10

Arabians engaged in unnecessary fights, gambling, adultery and unfairness in all dealings.

The Qur'an informs us of their level of thinking; "And they say: There is nothing but our life of this world; we live and die and nothing but time annihilates us". (Qur'an, 45:24)

PART 8 #BiographyOfRasul

His Adulthood

Not just him, but everyone in the family in which he was born possessed
elements of heroism and bravery. He was strong, healthy and now rich.

1/14

He led a life of prudence and generosity. This was not the norm with most Arabians at the time. It made their home a center of cynosure, a beacon of hope for the poor and needy, who always hovered around them. He and his beautiful wife always kept the help coming.

2/14

There was a drought and famine during which the Prophet & his wife set a new pace for philanthropy.

His foster mother, Halima also came to visit during this time and he used to place his cloak beneath her feet and show her maximum love and care.

She loved him dearly too.

PART 7 #BiographyOfRasul

The Prophet Meets Nana Khadijah

After the incident of the Christian monk who advised Abu Talib not to go with Rasulullah to Syria, Abu Talib sold his goods at cheaper rate in Basra in order to return home.

1/14

Abu Talib inherited the acts of providing food/water for pilgrims from his father Abdul Muttallib, which costs him.

Additionally, the Quraysh battle attracted more spendings.

Now, the battles have subsided and trading resumed, but Abu Talib was in a financial crises

2/14

So, he suggested that the Prophet (s) introduces himself to one of the wealthiest people of Quraysh, a Lady, Khadija bint Khuwaylid.

Khadija always employed merchants for her business and was in search of an honest merchant.

She heard about the Prophet (s),
