Abdullah Ibn Salam (R.A) [The Story of the Rabbi Who Converted to Islam] - Mufti Menk (17 Feb 2016)

[@safiaothman1098]

Very Powerful, Educative and Informative Story, Maa Shaa Allah. Jazak Allahu Khairaan Kathiraan Mufti Menk.

[@valdinoorazhar1571]

This is why Muslims shouldn't hate Jews ONLY because they are Jews. Qur'an never told us to hate the Jews ONLY because they are Jews. The Qur'an is not a racist kitab, the story of Abdullaah bin Salam proves it. Judge people by their behavior not by their ethnicity.

[@AbdulKhader-786]

We shouldnt hate anyone except enemies of Allah

[@abdurrehman169]

I think most people hate zionists not jews

[@aminfawzan4126]

MashaAllah

[@yasminajoosub559]

Mufti very sad and disappointed...you never mentioned Gaza and the palestinians.....why

[@ChErRyaVe20pK]

They get persecuted everyday, as well as Muslims from ALL OVER the world. Palestenians arent the only muslims being persecuted. Do you want him to mentiom Palestenians by name every time he is giving a lecture? Is him making a dua to ALL muslims not enough or do Palestenians get special priority?

Question, is Abdullah bin Salam a prophet?

[@jamilaghazi8119]

No. In Order To Be A Prophet Of Allah (SWT), Allah (SWT) Has To Contact You Personally. Abdullah Ibn Salam Never Claimed Prophethood, Because 1. Allah (SWT) Never Contacted Him Personally. 2. Allah (SWT) Hears And Sees Everything, So If Abdullah Said He Was A Prophet, Allah Would Had Told The Messenger What Abdullah Said Or The Messenger Would Had Told Him He's A Liar If He Heard Or Someone Else Heard. 3. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) Was The Last And Final Messenger And Prophet, And If He Wasn't He Would Have Said Something Like After I Die A New Prophet Would Arrive And It Would Be Abdullah Because Allah (SWT) Told Me, Or Describe A Person Very Similar To Him (Like Isa Did To Prophet Muhammad (SAW).) 4. Abdullah Would Never Claim Prophethood Even If He Wasn't In The Right State Of Mind.

@Jamila Ghazi Then how could he know 3 questions and the answers to them that only a prophet knows?

[@cainblue448]

@Jamila Ghazi Sahih al-Bukhari 3329 Narrated Anas: When `Abdullah bin Salam heard the arrival of the Prophet (ﷺ) at Medina, he came to him and said, "I am going to ask you about three things which nobody knows except a prophet: What is the first portent of the Hour? What will be the first meal taken by the people of Paradise? Why does a child resemble its father, and why does it resemble its maternal uncle" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Gabriel has just now told me of their answers." `Abdullah said, "He (i.e. Gabriel), from amongst all the angels, is the enemy of the Jews." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The first portent of the Hour will be a fire that will bring together the people from the east to the west; the first meal of the people of Paradise will be Extra-lobe (caudate lobe) of fish-liver. As for the resemblance of the child to its parents: If a man has sexual intercourse with his wife and gets discharge first, the child will resemble the father, and if the woman gets discharge first, the child will resemble her." On that `Abdullah bin Salam said, "I testify that you are the Messenger of Allah." `Abdullah bin Salam further said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! The Jews are liars, and if they should come to know about my conversion to Islam before you ask them (about me), they would tell a lie about me." The Jews came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and `Abdullah went inside the house. Allah's Apostle asked (the Jews), "What kind of man is `Abdullah bin Salam amongst you?" They replied, "He is the most learned person amongst us, and the best amongst us, and the son of the best amongst us." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "What do you think if he embraces Islam (will you do as he does)?" The Jews said, "May Allah save him from it." Then `Abdullah bin Salam came out in front of them saying, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah." Thereupon they said, "He is the evilest among us, and the son of the evilest amongst us," and continued talking badly of him.
