Zaid Ibn Amr (ra): A One Man Ummah | The Firsts | Dr. Omar Suleiman

Zaid Ibn Amr Ibn Nufaid (ra) is an absolutely remarkable figure in the history of Islam and has a story unlike any other from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ. Aside from being a monotheist before the coming of Islam, he would guide people to what pleased Allah based on intuition and fitrah (natural disposition).

Just imagine how lucky we are to be born muslim, most of us, already set out to walk on the straight path, without having to actually look for the truth because it was already in front of us. Being born Muslim is the biggest mercy Allah (SWT) could have given me, us, and we cant thank him enough. It made me cry that he was killed before Islam became known, because he didn't get what he was looking for all his life - we born muslims didnt even have to look, Subhanallah. May Allah join us all to be with this incredible man in Jannah.

[@amishmuse8026]

Alhamdu lellah.that is a Nimatu Rabi

[@lamaalamoudi564]

Even people who are born muslim need to go on a journey to choose islam and truly find it to be sincere in believing that it is the truth, because even in the Quran Allah says don't follow your forefathers blindly "Ibn Ishaq reported that Ibn `Abbas said that this was revealed about a group of Jews whom Allah’s Messenger called to Islam, but they refused, saying, “Rather, we shall follow what we found our forefathers following.” So Allah revealed this Ayah (2:170-171)"

[@lamaalamoudi564]

وَاِذَا قِيۡلَ لَهُمُ اتَّبِعُوۡا مَآ اَنۡزَلَ اللّٰهُ قَالُوۡا بَلۡ نَـتَّبِعُ مَآ اَلۡفَيۡنَا عَلَيۡهِ اٰبَآءَنَا ؕ اَوَلَوۡ كَانَ اٰبَآؤُهُمۡ لَا يَعۡقِلُوۡنَ شَيۡـئًـا وَّلَا يَهۡتَدُوۡنَ‏  (2:170) And when they are told: “Follow what Allah has revealed,” they say: “No, we shall follow what we found our forefathers adhering to.” What! Even if their forefathers were devoid of understanding and right guidance? وَمَثَلُ الَّذِيۡنَ کَفَرُوۡا كَمَثَلِ الَّذِىۡ يَنۡعِقُ بِمَا لَا يَسۡمَعُ اِلَّا دُعَآءً وَّنِدَآءً ؕ صُمٌّۢ بُكۡمٌ عُمۡـىٌ فَهُمۡ لَا يَعۡقِلُوۡنَ‏ (2:171) Those who have refused to follow the Way of Allah resemble cattle; when the shepherd calls them they hear nothing except shouting and crying; they are deaf, dumb and blind, and so they understand nothing.

I am speechless, amazed, awestruck with Zaid r.a 's story. MashaAllah I'm curious to how and who gathered the research of his life story and even the du'a he made before he was killed! I'm glad Zaid r.a has met Rasulullah s.a.w at least once in his lifetime although not a prophet yet at that time. Sheikh Omar Suleiman have a beautiful way of story telling that I can imagine the life of these people I have never met or knew. May Allah bless you Sheikh Omar!!
