@Hadithoftheday Paternal uncle and Foster brother of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. A woman named Thaubia (Sobiya), had nursed both of them.
Sayyidna Hamza R.A was given the title of Sayyid-ush-Shuhadaa (The Leader of Martyrs) & Asadullah (The Lion of Allah).
Hamzah R.A was martyred in battle of Uhud
@Hadithoftheday Sayyidna Hamza R.A was the son of Abdul Muttalib, the leader of the Quraish and the paternal uncle of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The name of the mother of Hamza was Hallah R.A , who was also the paternal cousin of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ's mother, Bibi Aminah
@Hadithoftheday Hamza R.A was a companion of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, a professional military man, a skilled warrior. He was distinguished character with a keen sense of justice and known as the protector of the weak and the persecuted.
@Hadithoftheday Hamzah R.A provided invaluable assistance to the Muslim ummah in the protection and spread of Islam and the fight against idolaters.
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ called Hamza ibn Abdul-Muttalib R.A as ‘Asadullah’ (The Lion of Allah) for his personal valour and martial art.
@Hadithoftheday At the Battle of Badr, Hamza R.A was one of the three warriors chosen by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ to fight the three best warriors of the Meccans
Hamza R.A had never been defeated & could only be killed by a treacherous stab in the back with a spear during the battle at Mount Uhud
@Hadithoftheday Prophet Muhammad ﷺ gave Hamza ibn Abdul-Muttalib the name Sayid al-Shuhadah (Lord of All Martyrs). The valour and courage of Hamza ibn Abdul-Muttalib R.A are an example of selfless service to Islam for all Muslims.
@Hadithoftheday Hamza R.A was the younger brother of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ' s father, however, since he was only two years his senior, they were nourished by the same wet-nurse. Hamza grew up a dexterous and strong man, mastered the art of hand-to-hand combat. +
@Hadithoftheday Hamzah R.A and Prophet Muhammad ﷺ were nursed by the same wet nurse named as "Thaubiyah - Sobiya R.A".
Hamzah R.A knew saber fighting, could perfectly fire a bow, and was a lion hunter. He was known as “the strongest and most fearless Quraysh.”
@Hadithoftheday Allah brought Hamzah R.A into the ranks of Muslims in a different way, using his innate sense of justice and dignity and intolerance towards people who persecute weak and defenseless.
@Hadithoftheday At the very beginning of 613 CE, after returning home from hunting in the desert, Hamza R.A learned that the idolater Abu Jahl attacked the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. He learnt Abu Jahl persecuted and insulted , Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and he silently endured insults. +
@Hadithoftheday Enraged, Hamza R.A rushed to the Kaaba, where Abu Jahl was sitting with his comrades, and hit him in the face with a mighty blow.
+
@Hadithoftheday When Abu Jahl jumped to his feet in fright, Hamza R.A told him: “You are only brave against the weak. Try to hit me! I believe in the One God as well as he does, now, try taunting me! ” Abu Jahl staggered back in fear.
+
@Hadithoftheday While Hamza R.A, leaving the Kaaba, asked where he could find the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. He was told: “In the house of Al-Arqam.” Hamza R.A immediately went there and there, having pronounced the shahadah, reverted to Islam.
@Hadithoftheday When the idolaters learned that Hamza R.A adopted Islam, they stopped openly attacking Muslims, fearing retribution from new member of the ummah. Hamza RA,whom everyone in Mecca feared,carried out his service honourably & unfalteringly to the very end,as a brave defender of Islam

Mus'ab ibn Umair R.A was a child of a rich family.From his childhood,he lived in luxuries of life.
Especially as a handsome young man,he was lavished with special love & attention
In fact,he was unique in his luxurious tastes
He wore the most costly clothes and changed them twice a day. His shoes used to be the costliest available at that time.
He was also fond of wearing fragrance. A whiff of his fragrance was enough for the people to know that Mus'ab is passing by.
With all that luxurious lifestyle, he was very intelligent and had an elegant personality with keen mind and mastery in eloquent speech. Because of these qualities, he was moving about among the influential circles of chiefs of Quraysh at a young age.

@Hadithoftheday Burāq.
Prophet ﷺ was sleeping in his room & Jibrael A.S came & woke him up & led him to white beast named as “Buraq".
Buraq is described as being between a mule and a donkey. Its speed was such that its hooves would touch where its eyes gazed.
@Hadithoftheday Allah says in Qur'an :
"Exalted is He who took His Servant by night from al-Masjid al-Haram to al-Masjid al-Aqsa, whose surroundings We have blessed, to show him of Our signs. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Seeing."
(Quran. Al-Israa 17: Verse 1)
@Hadithoftheday Prophet ﷺ mounted on buraq & began to fly towards Quds.

Buraq bore Prophet ﷺ on its back and in an instant transported him to Masjid al-Aqsa in Jerusalem, a journey that at the time took weeks overland. There, at Quds, the Prophet ﷺ led all the Prophets in prayer.

Ammar & his family were tormented so consistently that Prophet ﷺ would urge them to be patient by reminding them that they were destined for Paradise

@Hadithoftheday Umayyah ibn Khalaf.
When Umayyah heard about Bilal reverting to Islam, he tortured him & forced him to relinquish the Islam.
But filled with love of Muhammad ﷺ & Islam, Bilal remained steadfast despite extreme torture and kept saying “Ahad, Ahad.” (Allah is One, Allah is One)
@Hadithoftheday Umayyah ibn Khalaf was the head of Banu Jumah tribe of Quraysh.

Bilal R.A suffered terribly after accepting Islam.
Umayyah used all sorts of torture on Bilal R.A to make him change his mind. But Bilal R.A remained firm.
Umayyah ibn Khalaf was killed in the Battle of Badr.
@Hadithoftheday When the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ learned about his tribulation, he sent Abu Bakr R.A, who bought him from the oppressor and freed him. The freedom was Islam’s first gift to Bilal. Second Caliph Umar ibn Khattab R.A honored him by calling him as Sayyedna (our leader)

@Hadithoftheday Sayyidna Ali R.A
Sayyidna Ali R.A ruled for about 5 years.
Following the death of Uthman R.A, the senior companions insisted that Ali R.A to takke over as leader of the Islamic State. At the insistence of Az-Zubair & Talhah, he accepted the position as the 4th Right Guided Caliph
@Hadithoftheday Inaugural speech of Ali R.A as a caliph:

"I advise you O slaves of Allah to fear Allah, for god-fearing is the best advice Allah's slaves might give to one another. It is also the closest deed to His pleasure, and the most yielding of the best results in His sight. +
@Hadithoftheday No doubt, you are ordered to fear Allah and you have been created to be faithful.
So you should beware of Allah as the Almighty has warned you of Himself. Indeed, He has warned you of a strong violence if you do not comply to his order. Furthermore, you should fear Allah so much+

@Hadithoftheday Shawwal
Shawwal is the name of the 10th month of the Islamic Calender
Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari relates that Allah’s Messenger ﷺ says: Whoever fasts the month of Ramadan & then follows it with six days of fasting in the month of Shawwal,it will be as if he had fasted the year through.
@Hadithoftheday The month of Shawwal is a symbol of new life and renewal after a month of spiritual cleansing. It’s a truly transformative period for Muslims.
It is recommended for the Muslim to fast six days of Shawwaal, and in this there is great virtue and an immense reward.
@Hadithoftheday Shawal means Uplift/breakage, as before Islam, Arabs trusted that any marriage held in Shawal would dependably end up being unsuccessful.
Taken from “shala” which means "when the female camel gets pregnant"
This name was given as female camels used to get pregnant amid this time
