1.09.2022 - [Lesson 3] - Years 4 to 5 After Prophethood
[00:53] A 23 year period of Prophethood.
[01:13] The 23 years of Prophethood is split into 2 areas.
[01:25] 1.) The life of the messenger ﷺ after he was sent as a prophet at the age of 40 .
[01:30] 2.) The life of the messenger ﷺ after the hijrah - the migration.
[07:20] During the early years of daʿwah, the most noble and intelligent of the ʿArabs were the greatest of the disbelievers.
[08:00] The affair of the Prophet ﷺ was clear for anyone who saw him, [08:29] Some ṣaḥābah arrived in Madīnah if Muḥammad ﷺ or Abū Bakr Aṣ-Ṣidīq was the prophet.
[09:00] ʿAbdullāh Ibn Salām said, ‘when I saw the face of the Prophet ﷺ (for the first time), I knew this was not the face of a liar.'
[15:31] The Prophet ﷺ was sent during a time of the most severe jāhiliyyah - pre-Islāmic ignorance.
[19:21] The First Migration to Abyssinia.
[19:21] The fifth year of Prophethood. The Prophet ﷺ was given permission (from Allāh to migrate from Makkah to Abyssinia.
[24:17] King Negus (An-Najāshī) said, the difference between us (Christians) and you (Muslims) is like the thickness of this stick.
[24:44] King Negus (رضى الله عنه) later accepted Islām, and the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) performed the janāzah ṣalāh (al-ghā’ib - for the one whose body is absent) for King Negus.
[25:09] During the fifth year of Prophethood, the Muslims were given permission (from An-Najāshī) to remain in Abyssinia.
[25:50] 6 months after the migration to Abyssinia an incident occurred that caused all of the Muslims in Abyssinia to return to Makkah.
[26:00] A rumor was being spread that all the kuffār of Quraysh had become Muslim.
[26:34] After 6 months of the Muslims being in Abyssinia, Quraysh sent ʿUtbah ibn Rabīʿah to debate with Muḥammad ﷺ
[29:10] ʿUtbah ibn Rabīʿah offered Muḥammad ﷺ leadership,
[29:19] He ﷺ was offered wealth enough to make him the richest man of Quraysh
[29:43] He ﷺ was offered the 10 most beautiful women of Quraysh in marriage, (in order to stop his Daʿwah).
[30:48] Allāh revealed to Muḥammad ﷺ the first āyāt of Sūrah Fuṣṣilat during the debate with ʿUtbah ibn Rabīʿah.
[39:20] Quraysh offered Muḥammad ﷺ a deal, that this year everyone unites upon worshipping al-Lāt and al-ʿUzzah (2 idols), and next year they worship Allāh alone.
[40:11] In response to the deal that Quraysh offered, Allāh (سبحانه و تعالى) revealed Sūrah Al-Kāfirūn
[44:15] Muḥammad ﷺ was accused of reciting magic
[44:40] Muḥammad ﷺ prayed in front of the Kaʿbah and recited Sūrah An-Najm
[46:56] Muslims and kuffār fell into prostration when The Prophet recited ﷺ except Abū Lahab!
[47:38] Rumors spread from this incident that all of Quraysh had become Muslim.
[47:56] These rumors reached the Muslims who had migrated to Abyssinia and they decided to return to Makkah.
[48:20] Unfortunately they found the kuffār were still kuffār.
[49:24] The Second Migration to Abyssinia.
[49:30] Over 80 of the companions returned to Abyssinia the second time led by Jaʿfar ibn Abī Ṭālib
[49:55] Some of the ṣaḥābah remained in Abyssinia for 10 years.
[50:07] Some of the ṣaḥābah stayed in Abyssinia even after the hijra to Madīnah.
[50:16] Some ṣaḥābah did not migrate to Madīnah until the battle of khaybar.
[51:49] Allāh blessed the Muslims with the Islām of 2 individuals; ʿUmar Ibn Al Khaṭṭāb and Hamzah
