@Hadithoftheday Bani Israel.
Bani Israel was the most impertinent, cowardly and troublesome race. That is why prophet after prophet was sent to their communities, to rectify their disbelieving ways.
@Hadithoftheday Some of the Prophets from Bani Israel were: 1. Yaqoob A.S 2. Yusuf A.S 3. Musa A.S 4. Dawood A.S 5. Sulayman A.S 6. Isa A.S.
The Banu Israel are mentioned so often in the Qur'an.
@Hadithoftheday The Banu Israel are called by this name because Israel was another name for Yaqub A.S,& from his twelve children came the twelve tribes that constituted Banu Israel. After Yusuf A.S became the minister of Egypt, they migrated there.
Thus origin of Banu Israel startes from Egypt
@Hadithoftheday Babu Israel were living peacefully until the pharaohs took them captive.They were treated like animals, their children were killed & women taken. Allah mentions these horrible trials of Banu Israel in the Quran,as Allah says, ‘And in that was a great trial from your Lord.’[2:49]
@Hadithoftheday Musa A.S saved the children of Israel from the hands of Pharaoh.
And the good word of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel because of what they had patiently endured.& We destroyed that Pharaoh and his people were producing and what they had been building. [7:137]
@Hadithoftheday The Banu Israel suffered unspeakable tortures, and, enduring all of it, remained believers. Allah honoured the Banu Israel by choosing them to be His special slaves.

@Hadithoftheday Allah says in Qur'an:
And We did certainly give the Children of Israel the Scripture and judgement and prophethood, and We provided them with good things and preferred them over the worlds. [Quran, 45:16]
@Hadithoftheday Dawud A.S, Sulayman A.S, Yahya A.S, Zakariyah A.S, Isa A.S, and many more were all Muslims of jewish descent. And they certainly were exemplary human beings, peace be upon them all.
This Allah says in Qur'an:
And We certainly chose them by knowledge over [all] the worlds. [44:32]
@Hadithoftheday Israel is the name of the Prophet Yaqub A.S that is used when referring to the Israelites, known as the Children of Israel in the Quran.
Allah says in Qur'an:
"O Children of Israel, remember My favor that I have bestowed upon you and that I preferred you over the worlds." (2:47)
@Hadithoftheday Yaqub A.S had 12 children. The 12 children of Yaqub A.S had many offsprings. The 12 children were the 12 tribes of Bani Israel.
The twelve tribes of Israel are the descendents of Yaqub A.S, that's why Yaqub A.S also known as Israel.

Hind Bint Utbah:
Hind was the wife of Abu Sufyan.
Her father and many members of her family were killed in Battle of Badr. So Hind's anger at muslims was intense and greatest. Wahshi martyred Hamza R.A on her orders.
Later on she accepted Islam.
Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib R.A was one of the finest huntsmen and greatest warrior of the Arabs. In the battle of Badr, he had killed many of the Qurayshi nobles. One of the Qurayshi nobles had a black slave called Wahshi from Abyssinia who could use the javelin with great skill.
Hind, the wife of Abu Sufyan, promised Wahshi freedom and his master Jubayr bin Mut’im also promised him the same as Hamza R.A had killed his uncle in Badr. Wahshi prowled amongst the fighters until he saw Hamza. He says, “I held my spear and balanced it well, then I aimed it.
When Umar ibn Al-Khattab R.A, the second caliph, passed away, Aisha R.A gave permission for him to be buried next to his two companions. He was buried behind her father
@Hadithoftheday Aisha R.A had actually reserved that space for herself, for she wished to be buried next to her husband. However, the love that the Prophet ﷺ bore for Umar R.A caused her to honour Umar R.A by sacrificing her beloved burial ground for him.
@Hadithoftheday When Umar R.A was on his death bed, he asked his son Abdullah R.A to beg Aisha R.A's permission for his burial by the side of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and Abu Bakr R.A. Aisha RA wept as she came to know that Umar R.A was on his deathbed. +
