Is Mariyah al-Qibthiyah the Prophet’s wife?

Mariyah bint Syam’un al-Qibthiyah is a woman from Egypt. In the year 7 AH, the King of Alexandria (Egypt), Muqauqis, sent the Mariyah to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Friends of Hatib bin Abi Balta’ah took care of him on the way to Medina. When he met the Prophet, he embraced Islam.

Embracing Islam

In the 6th year H, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam accused the kings. He sent them a letter. Inviting them to embrace Islam. Among the kings who got the letter was Muqauqis, King of Alexandria, Egypt. In response to the letter, Muqauqis gave many gifts to the Prophet. Among them are Mariyah and her sister named Sirin. Also included was Khasi, Mariya’s brother. He also rewarded the prophet with lots of gold. 20 soft clothes. A bighal and a donkey. The prizes were entrusted to the friend of Hatib bin Abi Balta’ah radhiallahu ‘anhu.

Hatib accused Mariyah, Sirin, and Khasi. Mariyah is interested in Islam. Sirin immediately embraced this noble religion. While Khasi remained above his new religion when he arrived in Medina, he embraced Islam.

From this we get a lesson, most non-Muslims do not embrace Islam because they do not know Islam. Or they get wrong information about Islam. Muslims should not be afraid and delay to preach. Introduce this religion to non-Muslims. They have the right to know the truth. So that they get choices and choose the best path for their life. That is, every Muslim must equip himself with religious knowledge.

We also know why the Messenger of Allah forbade anyone to live in an infidel country. Because there, information about Islam is minimal. While the ambiguity of thinking about Islam is very large. This news gap can endanger the faith of a Muslim.

With the Messenger of Allah

Mariyah is a beautiful white woman. But he did not belong to the ummah of the believers. In the month of Dhul Hijjah in 8 H, Mariyah gave birth to the son of the Prophet and was named Ibrahim. The Prophet’s wives also felt jealous of him.

With the birth of Ibrahim, Mariyah became an independent woman. Ibn Abbas said, “When Mariyah gave birth, the Prophet said,” He was liberated by his son. “Ibrahim lived for a year and a few months in the attention of the Prophet. Before he was two years old, Ibrahim was sick. Then he died when he was only 18 months old. He died in the year 10 AH, on Tuesday when the new Rabiul Awal was running several days. Mariyah was very sad with her son’s departure.
To understand the position of Mariyah, we can see the words of Mother Ayesha radhiallahu ha anha, “I never jealous of women with the Prophet as my jealousy for Mariyah. Because she is a very beautiful woman and her hair is wavy. The Prophet was very interested in him. When he first arrived, he placed Mariyah in the house of Harithah bin an-Nu’man so that we became neighbors. Day and night the Messenger of Allah be with him until we take the time to pay attention to him so that he does not feel at home. Then the Prophet moved him to a higher area. He often met him there. That is the hardest for us. “

Die

Mariyah died on the month of Muharam in 16 H. Umar bin al-Khattab gathered people to overtake him. And he was buried in Baqi Cemetery. Ibn Mandah said, “Mariyah died 5 years after the Prophet died. Radhiallahu ‘anha wa askanahu fasiha jannatih.

Is Raihanah binti Zaid the Prophet’s wife?

Previously, we talked about the biography of eleven wives of the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam. This time, we will talk about women disputed by historians; is he the wife of the Prophet or not. The first woman we will bring to the story is Raihanah binti Zaid bin Amr bin Khunafah radhiallahu ‘anha.

Nasab

He is Raihanah bint Zaid bin Amr bin Khunafah radhiallahu ‘anha. There is also a saying that the word is Raihanah bint Zaid bin Amr bin Khunafah bin Syamun bin Zaid from the Banu Nadhir (al-Maqrizi: Imta ‘al-Asma’ Cet. Dar al-Kitab al-lIlmiyah Beirut 6/131). There are also those who call it from the Banu Quraizhah (Mahdi Rizqullah: Terj. Sirawi Nabawiyah. Cet. Shield of the Qur’an Koran: 844). And the most opinion stated that he came from Banu Quraizhah.

Embracing Islam

Initially, Raihanah was the wife of a Bani Quraizhah man known as al-Hakam. Her husband loved her very much. Glorify and do good to him. Raihanah is also a beautiful woman who has a respectable position in the middle of her people. He is smart and good at analyzing problems.

When the Bani Quraizhah Jews condemned the agreement between them and the Muslims, the Prophet and his companions attacked them. They were defeated so that their women became captives. Raihanah became the captive of the Prophet.

At first Raihanah refused to embrace Islam. He is still fanatical about his Jewish religion. This situation makes the Prophet uncomfortable. When the Prophet was with his friends, he heard the steps approaching him, apparently Tsa’labah bin Sa’yah reported on Raihanah’s Islam. The Messenger of Allah rejoiced and gave him joy to release him, marry him, and wear a hijab for him. But Raihanah said, “O Messenger of Allah, let me remain in your power (your slave). It is lighter for me and for you as well. “The Prophet allowed his status to be as before (al-Maqrizi: Imta ‘al-Asma’ Cet. Dar al-Kitab al-lIlmiyah Beirut 6/131).

In other versions mentioned:

When the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam was in the middle of his best friend, he heard the pace of the steps. He said, “This is the sound of the pace of his sandals Ibn Sa’yah. He wanted to give me good news with Islamic Raihanah. “Ibn Sa’yah came and said,” O Messenger of Allah, Raihanah has embraced Islam. Cheer up with this news. “The Prophet sent Raihanah to the house of Salma bint Qays (Umul Mundzir). He stayed there until he experienced menstruation and holiness from the menstruation.

Ummul Mundzir came to meet the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. He reported that Raihanah was holy. The Prophet came to his house. Then say to Raihanah,

نَ أَحْبَبْتِ أَنْ أُعْتِقَكِ ، وَأَتَزَوَّجَكِ فَعَلْتُ ، وَإِنْ أَحْبَبْتِ أَنْ تَكُونِي

“If you want, I will free you. Then marry you and I have done it. But, if you prefer to be my ownership, I will obey. And I’ve done it. “

Raihanah answers,

يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ أَخَفُّ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَيَّ أَنْ أَكُونَ فِي مِلْكِكَ

“O Messenger of Allah, it is lighter for you and for me if I am under your ownership.”

The relationship between Raihanah and the Prophet continued until he died (Ibn Kathir: as-Sirah an-Nabawiyah, 4/604).

Is Raihanah a Believer of the Faithful?

The scholars differed whether Raihanah included the wife of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam or his slave. Those who argue that Raihanah radhiallahu ha anha is a slave he argues with narrations that mention that Raihanah himself preferred to be his slave than his wife.

Similarly, narrated from Ibn Sirin (seoran tabi’in) that there was someone who met Raihanah radhiallahu ‘anha. The person said, “Surely Allah does not want you as the mother of believers.” Raihanah answers, “(thus) you do not want God to be my child.”

Raihanah’s answer shows that she is not the wife of the prophet (Ahmad Khalil Jum’ah: Nisa Ahlul Baits, Cet. Darul Yamamah Beirut, Hal: 453).

Among historians who argue that Raihanah is the wife of the Prophet is al-Waqidi. He said, “The Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam freed Raihanah bint Zaid bin Amr bin Khunafah. And at that time he was married. Her husband loves and glorifies her. He said, ‘I will not ask to be guarded (married) anyone afterwards. ‘ She is a beautiful woman. When he became a prisoner of the Banu Quraizah, he was confronted with the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. He said, “I was among the people confronted by him. He ordered that I be separated. He has a part of every booty. When I was separated, God subjected me. I was put in the home of Um Mundzir bint Qais for several days. Until the execution of the Bani Quraizhah forces was over and the prisoners separated. Then the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam came to see me. I feel very embarrassed. He preached to me and sat me before him. He said,

إِنِ اخْتَرْتِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ اخْتَارَكِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِنَفْسِهِ

‘If you choose Allah and His Messenger, then His Messenger will choose you for himself. ‘

I replied, “Actually I chose Allah and His Messenger.”

When I embraced Islam, the Messenger of Allah freed me and married me. He gave dowry worth ten uqiyah (1 uqiyah = 119 gr) and wheat. As he gave the dowry of his other wives. The wedding was held at the house of Um Mundzir. He divided his days as he did for other wives. Then wear a hijab for me. “

Al-Waqidi said, “The Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam admired him. It is not he asking for something to be given. Some say to Raihanah, saja If only you asked the Messenger of Allah to free Bani Quraizhah, surely he would free them. ‘ He replied, ‘He hasn’t been with me until all the prisoners are separated.’ The Messenger of Allah is always with him. And many spend time with him. This togetherness continues until Raihanah dies after returning from the Wada pilgrimage. The Prophet buried him at Baqi. And the time of his marriage to the Prophet was the Month of Muharam in the year 6 H. “(Ibn Kathir: al-Bidayah wa an-Nihayah, Cet. Dar Hijr Litthaba’ah, 8/235).

Ibn Saad in his Tabaqat also agreed with al-Waqidi. He said, “This is what was told to us about his deliverance and marriage. This is a valid history in our opinion. And this is also the opinion of the scholars. But I heard that there was a history that he was on the side of the Prophet not yet free. He was a slave of the Prophet until he died. “(Ibn Saad: Ath-Thabaqat al-Kubra, Cet. Dar Shadir Beirut, 8/130).

A strong opinion is Raihanah is a slave to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. And he did not marry her. Even though there are differences, this does not reduce the position of Raihanah radhiallahu ‘anha. He has a great position because of his proximity to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. And because he was one of the women at the Prophet’s house. It is destined for happiness by this position.

His death

Raihanah has been granted great pleasure by several years in the shade of the holy Prophet’s house. He experienced life with the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Gain glory and position in the world and tarbiyah ruhiyah. With the Prophet, he felt comfortable with guidance and guidance. However, his life in the Prophet’s house was not so long. He died in the lifetime of the Prophet.

When returning from the Hajj Wada ‘year 10 H, Raihanah dies. The Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam buried him in Baqi Cemetery ‘(Ahmad Khalil Jum’ah: Nisa Ahlul Bait, Hal: 454).

May Allah meridhai and bless Raihanah bint Zaid. And place it in His highest heaven.

Mother of Believers Maimunah bint al-Harits

The First Believer, Maimunah bint al-Harith bin Hazn al-Hilali was the last woman married to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Not many know this Bani Hilal noble woman. Now, let’s get to know him. Because he is our mother, mother of those who believe.

Nasab

Ummah Muminin Maimunah was the daughter of al-Harits bin Hazn ibn Bujair ibn al-Hazm bin Ruwaibah bin Abdullah bin Hilal. He was born 29 years before hijrah and died in 51 H. Along with 593 AD and died in 671 M. His mother was named Hind bint Auf bin Zuhair bin al-Harith bin Hamathah bin Humair.

The siblings of the First Believers, Maimunah, were Umad Fadhl Lubabah al-Kubra bint al-Harits who was the wife of al-Abbas bin Abdul Muthalib, uncle of the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Then Lubabah ash-Shugra Ashma bint al-Harits. He was the wife of al-Walid bin al-Mughirah and the mother of Khalid bin al-Walid Saifullah radhiallahu ‘anhu. Then Lubabah ash-Shugra married Ubay bin Khalaf al-Jahmi. From him, he has a child named Aban and others. The next sister was Izzah binti al-Harits who was the wife of Ziyad bin Abdullah bin Malik. They are all brothers and sisters and Maimunah’s mothers. As for his mother’s sister, Asma bint Umais who was the wife of Ja’far bin Abu Talib (Tabari Muhibbuddin: as-Simthu ats-Tsamin, p. 189)

Some say, the woman who has the best daughter-in-law in this world is Hind bint Auf bin al-Harits, the mother of the Believers Maimunah radhiallahu ha anha. His son-in-law is al-Abbas and Hamzah. Two sons of Abdul Muthalib. Abbas married his daughter Lubabah al-Kubra bint al-Harits. And Hamzah married Salma binti Umais.

The other maids are Ja’far and Ali. Two sons of Abu Talib. Both of them married Asma binti Umais. First Asma is married to Ja’far. After Ja’far died in the War of Mu’tah and Asma finished the period of his prayer, he was married by Abu Bakr al-Siddiq. Then just married Ali bin Abu Talib. When Hamzah died at the Battle of Uhud, Salma was married to Usamah bin al-Hadi al-Laitsi.

And his best son-in-law was of course the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam who married two of his daughters. First the First Faithful Prophet Zainab bint Khuzaimah radhiallahu ‘anha. After he died, in the next period the Prophet married the Muslim Brotherhood Maimunah binti al-Harith (al-Ashami: Simthu an-Nujum al-Awali, 1/201).

If you only see from a worldly perspective; position, nasab, and character, of course the name al-Walid bin al-Mughirah -ahah Khalid bin al-Walid- will be a complement to how charming the sons-in-law of Hind binti Auf. However, the spiritual perspective is more important for us. So that it does not make al-Walid an added glory for him. Allah Ta’ala believed about the value of an unbeliever,

أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِآيَاتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَلِقَائِهِ فَحَبِطَتْ أَعْمَالُهُمْ فَلَا نُقِيمُ لَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَزْنًا

“Those who have kufr against the verses of their Lord and (kufr against) encounter with Him, then erase their deeds, and We do not make an assessment for them on the Day of Judgment.” [Quran Al-Kahf: 105].

Its glory

The First Believer Maimunah bint al-Harith was respected by other wives. Because he was the sister of Umad Fadhl, the wife of the uncle of the prophet, al-Abbas bin Abdul Muthalib radhiallahu ‘anhu. Then aunt from Khalid bin al-Walid. And also aunt Abdullah bin Abbas (adz-Dzahabi: Siyar A’lam an-Nubala, 2/238).

Another feature of Maimunah’s mother was that she narrated the seven hadith contained in Shahih al-Bukhari and Muslim. One hadith narrated by al-Bukhari only. Five hadiths by Muslims only. And the total hadiths he recites are thirteen hadith (adz-Dzahabi: Siyar A’lam an-Nubala, 2/238).

The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam called Umm Al-mu’minin Maimunah and his sisters as believers. From Abdullah bin Abbas radhiallahu ‘anhuma, the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam said,

الأخوات مؤمنات: ميمونة زوج النبي, وأم الفضل بنت الحارث, وسلمى امرأة حمزة, وأسماء بنت عميس هي أختهن لأمهن

“The believing sisters are Maimunah, the wife of the Prophet, Umm Fadhl bint al-Harith, Salma the wife of Hamzah, and Asma bint Umais who is their mother’s brother.” (Narrated by al-Hakim in al-Mustadrak 6801. He say sahih according to Muslim terms).

Marry the Prophet

The love story began when Maimunah lived alone without a husband. Al-Abbas who was a person near Maimunah and a person near the Messenger of Allah, offered Maimunah to the Prophet when he was in Juhfah. The Prophet was also interested and then married him. Land in Sarif, 10 miles from Mecca witnessed this household began to be fostered. This marriage took place in the 7th year H (629 AD) during Umrah qadha. Through Abbas, the Messenger of Allah paid a dowry worth 400 Dirhams.

Previously, Maimunah was the wife of Abu Ruhm bin Abdul Uzza bin Abu Qais bin Abdu Wud bin Nashr bin Malik bin Hasl bin Amir bin Luay. Some claim that Maimunah was the woman who offered herself to the Prophet. While waiting for his message, Maimunah said, “This mount and what is on it is for Allah and His Messenger.” Allah Ta’ala took down his firm,

وَامْرَأَةً مُؤْمِنَةً إِنْ وَهَبَتْ نَفْسَهَا لِلنَّبِيِّ إِنْ أَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ أَنْ يَسْتَنْكِحَهَا خَالِصَةً لَكَ مِنْ دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

“And Muslim women who surrender themselves to the Prophet if the Prophet wants to marry her, as a specialization for you, not for all believers.” [Al-Ahzab Quran: 50]

Others say that Maimunah’s name was Barrah. Then the Prophet replaced him with Maimunah. He is a wife who is very close to the Prophet. Among the proof of his closeness was that the Prophet used to bathe with him through the same water container (Tabari Muhibbuddin: as-Simthu ats-Tsamin, p. 192).

Wedding Lessons

By marrying Maimunah, the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam had done great benefit. Her brother-in-law’s relationship with Bani Hilal managed to attract their sympathy. Make them not hesitate to embrace this noble religion. Because they did not feel there was a distance between them and the Prophet Muhammad. Lost the clumsy and heavy feeling in the heart. Taka is more proud, because they have become one family (Muhammad Fathi Mus’id: Ummahatul Mukminin, p. 206).

Muhammad Rashid Rida Rahimahullah said, “Uncle of the Prophet, Abbas, was the one who really wanted this marriage. Plus Maimunah is his wife’s sister, Lubabah al-Kubra Um Fadhl. He tied both of them with the permission of Ummul Fadhl. If Abbas did not see any major problems from this marriage, surely he would not have been so concerned about this (Muhammad Rasyid Ridha: Nida Li al-Jinsi al-Lathif fi Huquq an-Nisa fi al-Islam, p. 84).

In the Nabawi Household

Ibn Hisham said, “Maimunah gave up her business to her sister, Umul Fadhl. Then Umm Fadhl discussed it with her husband, Abbas. Until finally the Prophet married her. And gave a dowry of 400 Dirhams (Ibn Kathir: as-Sirah an-Nabawiyah: 3/439).

Others say Maimunah immediately offered herself to the Prophet. Then Allah Ta’ala revealed His word,

وَامْرَأَةً مُؤْمِنَةً إِنْ وَهَبَتْ نَفْسَهَا لِلنَّبِيِّ إِنْ أَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ أَنْ يَسْتَنْكِحَهَا خَالِصَةً لَكَ مِنْ دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

“And Muslim women who surrender themselves to the Prophet if the Prophet wants to marry her, as a specialization for you, not for all believers.” [Al-Ahzab Quran: 50]

Maimunah said, “The camel and what is on it belong to the Prophet.” (Ibn Hisham: as-Sirah an-Nabawiyah, 2/646).

By becoming the wife of the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam, Maimunah bint al-Harith Allah be upon him ‘anha joined other wives. They both have a role in conveying the life of the Prophet to his people. As the word of Allah Ta’ala,

وَاذْكُرْنَ مَا يُتْلَى فِي بُيُوتِكُنَّ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَالْحِكْمَةِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ لَطِيفًا خَبِيرًا

“And remember what was read in your house from the verses of Allah and wisdom (the sunnah of your prophet). Lo! Allah is the Most Gentle, the Knower. “[Quran Al-Ahzab: 34]

Among the duties of the wives of the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam was to convey the Shariah laws, activities of the Prophet, which were not seen by the general public. They conveyed how the Prophet bathed and performed ablution. What the Prophet did before and during sleep, also when waking up from sleep. When entering and leaving the house, and other things that cannot be known in detail except by his wives, Allah ‘anununna. They are the ones who are always with the Prophet at home.

His death

Umul Mukmini Maimunah binti al-Harith Allah be upon him ‘he died in the Sarif area. A place between Mecca and Medina. The first place he built a household with the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

He died in 51 H / 671 AD, as confirmed by Ibn Hajar and others. When he died, his age was 80 or 81 years (Ibn Saad: ath-Thabaqat al-Kubra, 8/140).

The First Believer, Shafiyah bint Huyai

The First Believers Shafiyah bint Huyai had a noble lineage. He is a nobleman Bani Nadhir, the descendant of Prophet Harun aih alaihissalam. This means that if the nasab line is drawn, Moses ‘alaihissalam counted as his uncle. The virtue is more complete because the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam was her husband.

Nasab

He is Shafiyah bint Huyai bin Akhtab bin Shu’ah bin Ubaid bin Ka’ab bin al-Khazraj bin Abi Hubaib ibn Nadhir bin an-Niham bin Tahum of the Children of Israel who included the grandson of the Prophet Harun bin Imran ‘alaihissalam. His mother is Barrah binti Samau-al.

Ummah Mu’minin Shafiyah was born in 9 years before hijrah and died 50 H. The year of birth and death coincided with 613 AD and 670 AD

Before marrying the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alahi wa sallam, Shafiyah’s mother was married to Sallam bin Misykam. He is a poet. Then Sallam divorced him. Next he married Kinanah bin Abu Huqaiq who was also a poet. In those days, poets held a noble position. They are counted as clever scholars. And his last husband was killed in the Khaibar War (Ibn Abdil Bar: al-Isti’ab, 4/1871 and Tabari’s Muhibbuddin: as-Simthu ats-Tsamin Hal: 201).

Those Who Hate the Rabbani Treatise

Ummah of the Faithful Shafiyah radhiallahu ha anha was a nobleman Bani Quraizhah and Bani an-Nadhir. His father, Huyai bin Akhtab, was both a Jewish figure and their cleric. The father knew that Muhammad bin Abdullah was an end-time prophet. He knew exactly since the first time the feet of the noble Prophet had landed on the land of Yathrib (the name of Medina in the past). But he is arrogant and rejects the truth. Because of what? Because the prophet came from Arabia not from children descended from Israel (Prophet Ya’qub).

The situation of Ummul Mukmini Shafiyah’s father, he immediately told himself. He said, “There is not one of my father’s and uncle’s children who both love me more than me. None of the children both made them happy, except he involved me with him. When the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam arrived at Quba -perkampungan Banu Amr bin Auf-, my father and uncle, Abu Yasir bin Akhtab, came to see him in the early morning. For God’s sake, they just came home to meet us when the sun disappeared. Both of them came with a withered, weak expression, and the road was strangled sluggishly. I tried to make them happy as I usually do. For God’s sake, neither of them cared even if they just turned to me. I heard my uncle, Abu Yasir, spoke to my father, “Is he really the prophet? “Yes, for God’s sake,” answered father. “You recognize him from the characteristics and signs?” Asked uncle again. “Yes, for God’s sake,” my father gave the same answer. “Then how are you going to be with him?” Asked uncle. Father replied, “For God’s sake, hostility while I’m still alive.”

Moses bin Uqbah az-Zuhri told that when the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam in Medina, Abu Yasir bin Akhtab came to see him. He heard his words. After that, he returned to his people and said, “Obey me. Surely God has brought you someone you have been waiting for. Follow him! Don’t you sideline it. “

Then Huyai bin Akhtab, who was the leader of the Jews, immediately moved to meet the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. He sat down and heard the Prophet’s words. After that go home to his people. Huyai is an adherent. He said, “I have come to meet the man. For God’s sake, I will always be hostile to him forever. “

Abu Yasir said, “Hi, my uncle’s son, come with me on this matter. Besides this matter, please not with me as you please. You will not perish. “

Huyai replied, “No! For the sake of Allah! I will not obey you. “He was ruled by Satan. And his people followed his views (Ibn Hisham: as-Sirah an-Nabawiyah 1 / 519-520 and Ibn Kathir: as-Sirah an-Nabawiyah 2/298).

Most beautiful wedding

Since the Prophet arrived in Medina, the Khaibar Jews have unanimously rejected the peaceful invitation. The impasse cannot be broken except by war. The war broke out between the two groups which were finally won by Muslims.

When the prisoners were gathered, Dihyah bin Khalifah al-Kalbi met the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. He said, “O Messenger of Allah, give me a slave girl from this prisoner.” The Prophet responded, “Please. Take a slave girl. “In the midst of the Angel Gabriel likes to like him, choose Shafiyah bint Huyai.

Then someone came to see the Prophet. He said, “O Prophet of Allah, you have given Dihyah a Shafiyah bint Huyai. A figure of Banu Quraizah and Banu Nadhir. Women who are not worthy of anyone but you. Then the Prophet said, “Call Dihyah together with Shafiyah.” He also came carrying Shafiyah. When the Prophet saw Shafiyah, he said to Dihyah, “Choose a female prisoner other than herself.”

On another occasion, the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam ordered Bilal to bring Shafiyah. When they were about to meet the Prophet, Bilal brought Shafiyah through the road which had many victims of war. The Prophet did not like what Bilal did. He said, “Have you lost your love for yourself, Bilal?”

The Prophet offered Shafiyah to embrace Islam. He also chose Islam. Then the Prophet married her (after the prayer period was over). His release as a prisoner is his marriage dowry. When looking at him, the Prophet saw a bruise on Shafiyah’s face. He asked, “What is this?” Shafiyah replied, “Before your arrival, I dreamed as if the moon had disappeared from its place and entered my house. For God’s sake, at that time I didn’t mention you at all. Then I told the husband my dream. He also slapped me. “He said,” You expect the ruler of Medina! “(Ibnul Qayyim: Zadul Ma’ad, 3/291)

One of the lessons from the multiplication of the wife of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam is social factors. That is helping and maintaining the feelings of people who are married. Islam maintains one’s position. With Islam their position does not fall, even more noble. Who is noble before embracing Islam, the more noble his position with Islam. Likewise the state of the Believers Shafiyah bint Huyai radhiallahu ‘anha. He is a noble woman before embracing Islam. A leader of his people. Daughter of the head of the tribe. And the wife of a noble too. After he embraced Islam, this noble religion still maintained his position. Maintain his feelings. Allah married him to the most noble man in the midst of the Muslims, the Messenger of Allah sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

The Prophet glorified Shafiyah

The Messenger of Allah was a gentle and loving person to his wives, including to the Ummah of the Believers Shafiyah radhiallahu ‘anha. One day, it arrived at Shafiyah’s ears that the Prophet’s wife, Hafah binti Umar, called it a daughter of a Jew. Shafiyah cried. At the same time the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam came to see him and saw him crying. He asked, “What makes you cry?” He replied, “Hafah binti Umar told me that I was the daughter of a Jew.” The Prophet said to him, “Surely you are the daughter of a prophet. Your uncle is a prophet. And you are in the shade of a prophet. How are you not proud of that? “Then he said to Hafsha,” O Hafshah, fear Allah. “(Tabari Muhibbuddin: as-Shimthu ats-Tsamin p. 207).

Shafiyah the daughter of a prophet was the one who arrived at Prophet Aaron. So that Prophet Aaron counted as his father. And Prophet Aaron is the brother of Prophet Moses. So he has a prophet uncle too. About under the auspices of the prophet. That means your husband who shelves you is a prophet.

One day the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam beri’tikaf at the mosque. Prophet with his wives. When they left, the Prophet said to Shafiyah bint Huyay, “Don’t hurry home. I’ll take you. “Shafiyah’s house is in the place of Usamah. The Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam came out with Shafiyah. On the road, the Prophet met two Ansar men. Both looked at the Prophet sallallaahu ahu alaihi wasallam for a moment then continued to walk. He sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam said to both, “Come here, this is Shafiyah bint Huyay”. So both said, “Exalted be Allah, O Messenger of Allah”. Then he sallallaahu aih alaihi wasallam said, “Surely the shetan runs on mankind through the bloodstream and I am worried that a feeling has arisen in both of you.” (Narrated by Al-Bukhari No. 1897 Kitab I’tikaf)

Die

Ummah Believers Shafiyah bint Huyai radhiallahu ha anha died in 50 H / 670 AD in the reign of Muawiyah ibn Abu Sufyan radhiallahu ‘anhu. And he was buried in Baqi Cemetery ‘(Ibn Hajar: Tadzhib at-Tadzhib, 12/380).

Mother of the Faithful Ramlah bint Abu Sufyan (Umm Habibah)

Umm Habibah is a woman who is married to the Prophet from a distance. Rasulullah in Medina, while he was in Africa, in Habasyah. How can? Check out the following story.

Nasab

As we know, in Arabic the names that previously contained the words Ummu, Abu, Ibn, and bintu are called kun-yah. Likewise with Umm Habibah. This is chewing not a name. His name is Ramlah bint Abu Sufyan (Shakhr) bin Harb bin Umayyah ibn Abdusy Syams bin Abdu Manaf al-Umawiyah. He was born 25 years before hijrah. And died in 44 H.

His mother was Shafiyah bint Abi al-Ash bin Umayyah. His mother was the aunt of the Caliph Uthman ibn Affan radhiallahu ‘anhu.

Migrate

Umm Habibah moved with her husband, Ubaidullah bin Jahsy, to Habasyah on the second hijrah. It was there that he gave birth to a child named Habibah. But unfortunately, the husband apostatized and embraced Christianity while on earth hijrah Habasyah. Of course this is a big disaster for Umm Habibah. He is overseas. Foreign countries are far from relatives. When he returned to Mecca’s hometown, he was under threat. His father did not accept his Islam. Now he is truly alone after his husband lapsed. But he remained firm with his Islam (Ibn Sayyid an-Nas: Uyun al-Atsar, 2/389).

In Habasyah, Umm Habibah dreamed of a strange dream. Then this dream came true. He said, “In my dream I saw my husband Ubaidullah bin Jahsy looks very bad looking. I feel scared. From there the situation changed. In the morning my husband said, ‘Hi Umm Habibah, really I have never seen a better religion than Christianity. In the past, I embraced this religion. After that I embraced Muhammad’s religion. Now I’m back to being a Christian. I told him, “For God’s sake, there is no good for you.” I told him about my dream. But he doesn’t care. Finally he became a khamr addict until his death.

Position and Virtue

From the nasab side, Umm Habibah was a Quraysh woman who connected her nasab with the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam to Abdu Manaf. And no one of his wives he married remotely like Umm Habibah (Adz-Dzahabi: Siyar A’lam an-Nubala 2/219).

Another position, he was the daughter of a great figure in Mecca and its leader, Abu Sufyan bin Harb. Of course his Islam is very risky for him and embarrasses his father. He knows that embracing Islam is like offering yourself to great danger. Undoubtedly, he must have made his father angry. That’s why he traveled a long and tiring journey with his husband to Africa far away. Move to Habasyah. The weight of the hijrah was felt even more because at that time he was pregnant with his child, Habibah (Ibn Saad: ath-Thabaqat al-Kubra 8/97). This is the struggle in the way of God. Proving sincerity and the depth of his faith in Allah Ta’ala.

The test for him didn’t stop there. On the overseas, the husband apostates. And died in a state of suul khatimah. Kufur embraced Christianity. However heavy he felt, he remained strong. His kufr father, her apostate husband, his days of solitude did not shake his image.

Good news

On another occasion, Umm Habibah dreamed again. But the dream this time is a beautiful dream. There was someone who came to him and said, “O Ummah Believers.” I was shocked. And kutakwil dream that the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam invited me. After the end of my iddah, a messenger arrived at Ndasyi at the door. Request permission to meet. Apparently it was her slave girl whose name was Abraha. He was the one who took care of an-Najasyi’s clothes and oiled himself. He entered my house and said, “The king advised you,” Indeed, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam wrote me a letter to marry you to him. ‘ God gives you such good tidings, “continued the slave. He continued, “The king said to you to appoint the person who represents you to marry you off.” Um Habibah sent Khalid bin Said bin al-Ash. He represented himself with Khalid. Then he gave Abraha two silver bracelets and two jewelry worn on his feet. And also the silver install was pinned to his toes. It is a form of gratitude for the good news he brings.

When it arrived in the afternoon, an-Najasyi ruled Ja’far bin Abu Talib to invite the Muslims to attend this wedding reception. An-Najasyi preached, “All praise is to God. The Lord, the Holy One, the Giver of salvation, the Most Gracious, the Guardian, the Mighty, and the Strong. I bear witness that there is no true worship except Allah. And Muhammad is His servant and messenger. He was the one reported by Isa bin Maryam. Amma ba’du. Indeed the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam wrote a letter to me to marry him to Umm Habibah bint Abu Sufyan. I also fulfilled the appeal of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. And I give 400 Dinars. Then I leave the Dinars to a group of people. “

Khalid bin Saad turned to speak, “All praise is to Allah. I praise Him, ask Him, and ask for His help. I bear witness not as true worshipers except God, there is no ally for Him. And I testify that Muhammad is His servant and messenger. He sent it with instructions and true religion. So that the religion wins compared to other religions. Even though it made the idolaters hate. Amma ba’du. I have fulfilled the appeal of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. And he married me with Umm Habibah bint Abu Sufyan. May the blessings of Allah for the Messenger of Allaah be upon him, peace be upon him.

A number of the Dinars were handed over to Khalid bin Saad. Then he hugged him. Feeling the event was over, the guests began to leave. Khalid said, “Sit down. Indeed, among the sunnah of the prophets when they were married, they gave food dishes “. He also invited them to eat. Meals are eaten. After that, they go home.

Umm Habibah said, “When the dowry arrived in my hand, I gave it to Abraha who gave me good news. I told him, pernah I’ve given you what I gave at that time. Even though at that time, I didn’t have a penny. There are fifty scholars (a number of assets). Take it and use it. ‘ He refused the treasure. Every time I give him, he always returns it to me. He said, ‘The king told me not to accept any of you. And I’m the one who takes care of his clothes and fragrances. Indeed, I have followed the religion of Muhammad the Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him). And I have surrendered (to Islam) to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala. The king instructs his wives to send you the fragrances they have. ‘

Umm Habibah said, “The next day I came to Gaharu, Waros, perfume seeds, zabbad (a type of fragrance). I put all that to the Messenger of Allah. He saw it and did not deny it. “

Abraha said, “My wish to you is only that you deliver greetings from me to the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam. Tell him that I have followed his religion. “Said Umm Habibah, Abraha always did good and served him. Every time he met Umm Habibah, he always reminded, “Don’t forget you convey my wishes.”

Umm Habibah said, “When I met the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam, I told him about the process of application and all the good deeds of Abraha to me. He smiled. And I convey greetings from him to him. The Prophet answered,

وَعَلَيْهَا السَّلامُ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

“For him also salvation, mercy, and blessings from Allah.” (Ibn Saad: ath-Thabaqat al-Kubra, 8 / 97-98).

Wedding Lessons

The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam married Umm Habibah in the 7th year H. He married him for glorifying him and affirming his religion. We know how Umm Habibah lived. The ordeal of the father, husband, and circumstances have forged it. Not a few women who firmly hold onto the truth fell weak when her husband, who was originally a soldier, turned back. But not with Umm Habibah. He emigrated with his son. Feeling sad to leave the husband in a situation he desperately needed. The parents who should be the place to complain – after God – cannot be counted on. He lived alone in a place miles away from his hometown. But he remained patient with his situation. Stay firm in holding on to his religion. Then God comforted him by marrying him to His Messenger sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. And make it the mother of those who believe.

Pay attention! How was the attention of the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam towards the Muslims. Even though they were in a far country in Habasyah, he kept up with their news. Even news of their individual development. Among them about Umm Habibah. Rotating trials come to him. He remained firm with his faith and religion. He is patient. And Allah repaid his patience by marrying him to the best human that ever existed.

His love for the Prophet

It is reported that Abu Sufyan came to Medina. His arrival in order to lobby the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam to make peace. After they themselves, the Quraysh, canceled the Hudaibiyah Treaty. After the Prophet refused his request, Abu Sufyan tried another way. Namely lobbying the Prophet through his daughter who was the wife of the Prophet, Umm Habibah radhiallahu ha anha.

When Abu Sufyan was about to sit on the bed of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam, Umm Habibah immediately folded it. Abu Sufyan said, “My daughter, (I don’t understand) is this bed not suitable for me (because you want better). Or am I not fit to sit on the bed? “Um Habibah said,” This is the mattress of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. While you are an unclean polytheist. I don’t like dad sitting on his bed the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam. “Abu Sufyan said,” My daughter, you became evil after parting with me. “” (No) even God pointed me to Islam. And you – father father – are figures and magnates of Quraysh, how can you escape from embracing Islam. -As a big person- You even worship a rock that doesn’t hear also see ?! “Abu Sufyan went to leave his daughter (Ash-Shalihi ash-Syami: Subul al-Huda wa ar-Rasyad, 5/206).

The love of Umm Habibah radhiallahu ‘anha to the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam was also illustrated in the following history:

“O Messenger of Allah, marry my sister, daughter of Abu Sufyan.” The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam replied, “Are you happy about that?” Um Habibah replied, “Right, I don’t just want to be your wife, and I want my sister join me in obtaining goodness “. The Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam said, “Your sister is not lawful to me. Umm Habibah said, “We heard the news that you wanted to marry Abu Salamah’s daughter?” He said, “Abu Salamah’s daughter?” Um Habiibah replied, “Yes.” He said, “If he was not my stepdaughter in my care, he still did not lawfully marry me, because he was the daughter of my brother from an intercourse, that is, me and Abu Salamah were both breastfed by Tsuwaibah (Mawla Abu Lahab). Therefore, do not offer your daughter or sister to me. “(Narrated by Bukhari, no. 5101 and Muslim, no. 1449).

Some say that the word of Allah Ta’ala:

عَسَى اللَّهُ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَ الَّذِينَ عَادَيْتُمْ مِنْهُمْ مَوَدَّةً قَدليرٌ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ

“Hopefully Allah will cause affection between you and the people you oppose among them. And Allah is Almighty. And Allah is Forgiving, Most Merciful. “[Quran Al-Mumtahanah: 7].

This verse goes down related to Abu Sufyan. The Prophet married his daughter, Umm Habibah radhiallahu ha anha. Then it became the connecting rope of the relationship of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam with Abu Sufyan (Ibn Kathir: Interpretation of the Koran al-Azhim, 8/89).

After the Prophet’s death

After the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam died, Um Habibah remained the same person. He is still the old woman, who is firm in holding onto the truth. When the news of his father’s death came, he asked for perfume. (After being brought in), he rubbed it on his two hearts as he said, “Actually I didn’t need this perfume if I hadn’t heard the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam say,

لا يحل لامرأة تؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر أن تحد على ميت فوق ثلاث ليال, إلا على زوج أربعة أشهر وعشرا

“It is not lawful for a woman who believes in Allah and the last day of mourning for a minor more than three days, except for her husband, for four months and ten days.” (Narrated by Bukhari, no. 5335 and Muslim, no. 1491)

During his 33 years of continuing his life after the death of the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam, Um Habibah passed many great events with the Muslims. When there was a catastrophe in the time of Uthman, the rebels became increasingly violent. Someone said, “If you meet one of the believers’ ummah. Hopefully they stop from Uthman. They met Umm Habibah bint Abu Sufyan. I (the narrator, Hasan al-Basri) saw that he was in the sack above Bagal (a white breed with a donkey). People took him to Uthman’s residence. But the rebels turned their heads. They refused. (Adz-Dzahabi: Siyar Alam an-Nubala, 4/569).

Umm Habibah radhiallahu ‘anha also kept good relations with her sisters and wives of the Prophet. From ‘Auf bin Al-Harith, he heard Ayesha radhiyallahu ha anha said,” Um Habibah once called me when he was about to die. He said, ‘Between us there must have been a problem. May Allah forgive me and you from whatever happened between us. “Ayesha also said,” God forgive you for all your mistakes and justify it all. “Um Habibah then said,” You have made me happy, may Allah also give you happiness. “Um Habibah also stated to Um Salamah like that too. (Ibn Saad: ath-Thabaqat al-Kubra, 8/100).

His death

Umm Habibah died in the city of Medina in 44 H. At that time he was 86 years old. He wa fat during the reign of his brother, Muawiyah ibn Abu Sufyan. May Allah bless them all (Ibn Hajar: al-Ishabah fi Tamyiz ash-Shahabah, 7/653).

The story of Ali’s Marriage with Sahih Fatimah

Is it true the story of Fatimah’s marriage;
Fatimah who was the daughter of the Prophet was very obedient to the Prophet. Fatimah is also known as a child who is very devoted to parents. Ali Bin Abi Talib was first knocked when Fatimah swiftly washed and treated the wounds of her father, Muhammad, who was seriously wounded by fighting.

Since then, Ali was determined to propose to the daughter of the Prophet, namely Fatimah. Ali is also known as a brave figure and a person who is very close to the Prophet. When the Prophet Muhammad received the revelation, Ali was the second person who believed in the revelation after Khadijah, the wife of the Prophet. However, Ali is a poor young man. His life is spent preaching in the way of Allah. For this reason, he was determined to save diligently to buy a dowry and apply for Fatimah.

Not even Ali’s money to buy a dowry, Ali suddenly heard that the Prophet’s friend Abu Bakr had proposed to Fatimah. Ali also felt sadness in his heart. However, Ali was aware that his rival had a higher quality of faith and Islam than him.

Ali’s sadness stopped for a moment because Fatimah refused Abu Bakr’s proposal.

But Ali’s cheerfulness began to dim again hearing that Umar Bin Khatab had applied for Fatimah. Again, Ali could only surrender because he competed with the mighty Umar Bin Khatab. However, fate returned to Ali’s side. Umar Bin Khatab was rejected by Fatimah.

But at that time Ali had not dared to take a stand, he realized that he was only a poor young man. Even the possessions he possessed were only a set of armor there plus a supply of coarse flour to eat.

Answer:

Bismillah was shalatu was greeting ‘ala Rasulillah, wa ba’du,

We have never come across a history that mentions such a detailed and detailed marriage story. The history we meet is as follows,

[1] From Buraidah radhiyallahu ‘anhu, he recounts,

خَطَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ رضى الله عنهما فَاطِمَةَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- «إِنَّهَا صَغِيرَةٌ». فَخَطَبَهَا عَلِىٌّ فَزَوَّجَهَا مِنْهُ

Abu Bakr and Umar radhiyallahu ‘anhuma once applied for Fatimah. But the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said,‘ He was still small. ‘Then Fatimah was proposed by Ali, then the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam married him to Fatimah. (Narrated by Nasai 3234, Ibn Hibban 6948 and dishahihkan Syuaib al-Arnauth).

[2] A history of dialogue between Ali and his former slaves before marrying Fatimah

Mentioned by Ibn Kathir in Nabawiyah Sirah and al-Baihaqi in ad-Dalail, from Ali radhiyallahu ‘anhu,

I want to propose to Fatimah. Then my former slave told me,

“Do you know that Fatimah has been proposed?”

“Don’t know.” I replied.

“He has been proposed. Why did you not immediately come to meet the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam to marry him? “Obviously my ex-slave.

“What do I have to marry him?”

“If you come to the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam, he will marry you. “Said my former slave.

He continued to motivate me until I came to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. When I sit in front of him, I can only be silent. For God’s sake, I could not speak anything, seeing the authority of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

Ask the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam,

ما جاء بك ، ألك حاجة؟

“You come, what’s wrong? What needs? “

I can only be quiet.

He asked again,

لعلك جئت تخطب فاطمة؟

“You came to propose to Fatimah?”

“Yes.” I replied.

Ask the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam,

وهل عندك من شيء تستحلها به؟

“Do you have something that can be used for the dowry?”

“Nothing, Yes, Rasulullah …” I replied.

Then the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam asked,

ما فعلت درع سلحتكها؟

What about the shield I have given you?

“By Allah, that is only Huthamiyah, the value does not reach 4 dirhams.” I replied.

Then the Prophet sallalla ‘alaihi wa sallam married Ali with Fatimah with mahar tameng Huthamiyah.

In Ahmad and Nasai’s history, stated,

I married Fatimah radhiyallahu ‘anha. I said to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam,

“O Messenger of Allah, allow me to meet Fatimah”

“Give the dowry to him!” Replied the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

“I don’t have anything.” I replied.

Then the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam asked,

فأين دِرْعُكَ الْحُطَمِيَّة؟

“Where is your Huthamiyah shield?”

“It’s in my place.” I replied.

“Give it to him!” Commanded the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. (Narrated by Ahmad 603, Nasai 3388 and humiliated by Syuaib al-Arnauth).

Allahu a’lam.

Umamah bint Abu al-Ash, the granddaughter of the Prophet

Umamah bint Abu al-Ash was one of the beloved grandchildren of the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam. He once carried him when praying. So that we also know the procedure for prayer while carrying a baby. Here is a brief account of this prophet’s family.

Nasab

Umamah is the daughter of Abu al-Ash bin ar-Rabi ‘bin Abdu al-Uzza bin Abdu ash-Shams bin Abdu Manaf bin Qushay. His mother was Zainab the daughter of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Umamah was the first grandson of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. So naturally he is called the beloved of the Prophet. As generally a grandfather gets his first grandchild.

From the nasab side, surely Umamah has the best nasab. He was born from the best family. His noblest grandfather of man. And his grandmother, the First Believer, Khadija radhiallahu ‘anha, is also the best woman in the world and the hereafter. And his mother is the eldest daughter of the Prophet.

While his father, Abu al-Ash, was a Meccan man who was known to have noble character. He was also called al-amin (who was honest and trustworthy) by the people of Mecca. An honest trader. Fulfill the rights of others. He was very respectful and in love with his father-in-law, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Evidenced by the frequent visits to his father-in-law’s house because of respect for him. The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam praised him in front of the Companions:

حَدَّثَنِي فَصَدَقَنِي ، وَوَعَدَنِي فَأَوْفَى لِي …

“He told me honestly. And fulfill his promise to me … “(Muttafaqun‘ alaih: al-Bukhari No.2943 and Muslim No. 2449).

Umamah’s position in the heart of the Prophet

Umamah is the beloved grandson of the Prophet. He sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam had prayed while carrying Umamah bint Abu al-Ash on his shoulder. When bowing, he put it down. When standing, he carried back (ath-Thabaqat al-Kubra Cet. Al-‘Alamiyah 8/23).

It is narrated from Ummul Mu’minin Ayesha radhiallahu ‘that in fact the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam was once given a necklace by a woman. Don’t say,

لَأَدْفَعَنَّهَا إِلَى أَحَبِّ أَهْلِي إِلَيَّ

“I will give this gift to my family that I love the most.”

Ayesha went with him. Then the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam called Umamah the daughter of Zainab, and held the gift around his neck (al-Isti’ab fi Ma’rifati al-Ash-hab 4/1789. History of Ahmad in his Musnad 6/101. Shaykh Syu’aib al -Arnauth commented on: sanadnya dhaif).

From the Ummah Believers Ayesha radhiallahu ha anha, he told me that an-Najasyi gave a gift to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam jewelry. Among the jewelry is a gold ring. He took the ring and sent it to his daughter Zainab. He said,

تَحَلِّي بِهَذَا يَا بُنَيَّةُ “

“Decorate with this O my grandson.” (Thabaqat al-Kubra Cet. Al-ami Alamiyah 8/186. Sunan Abu Dawud No.4235, 2/493, celebrated by al-Albani).

Umamah wears it too. And enjoy the love, attention, and gentleness of his grandfather.

Umamah Marriage

Fatimah bint Rasulullah radhiallahu ‘anha -bibi Umamah- had the intention that Ali bin Abu Talib married Umamah after his death. After Fatimah died, Ali married Umamah. After Ali’s death, Umamah was married to az-Zubair bin al-Awwam then al-Mughirah bin Naufal radhiallahu ‘anhuma.

He has no offspring from his marriage. So that the Prophet’s daughter Zainab did not have grandchildren (al-Isti’ab fi Ma’rifati al-Ash-hab 4/1789).

His death

Umamah bint Abu al-Ash radhiallahu wa had died when he was the wife of al-Mughirah bin Naufal ibn al-Harith radhiallahu ‘anhu. And historical references do not mention details about his death.

Zaid Bin Tsabit The Translator of the Prophet

Zaid bin Tsabit radhiallahu hu anhu is a friend of Ansar. He was chosen as the head of the Koran bookkeeping team in Abu Bakr and in the days of Uthman ibn Affan. The great trust certainly shows how much his capacity and position in Islam and the history of Muslims.

Its origin

He is Zaid bin Tsabit bin adh-Dhahak al-Ansari. He came from the Banu Najjar who was the family of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam in Medina. When the Prophet arrived in Medina, Zaid’s condition at that time was an orphan. His father died at War Bu’ats. In the first year of the hijrah, Zaid’s age was no more than 11 years. He embraced Islam with his family. The Prophet also blessed him.

Zaid sincerity

As a child, he and adults departed to meet the Prophet to participate in the Battle of Badr. But, the Prophet did not allow him because he was too young and his body was still small. Not giving up because he was rejected during the Battle of Badr, when the Messenger of Allah prepared the Battle of Uhud troops, Zaid re-registered. This time he departed with a group of teenagers his age. Hopefully the Messenger of Allah will include them in the Mujahideen forces. And their family moreover hopes that the Messenger of Allah will accept them.

The Prophet looked at them with a gratitude. As if he wanted them to get permission not to come. Come on young people named Rafi ‘bin Khadij bring a dagger or spear. He showed off his skill in holding the weapon. Rafi ‘said, “I am exactly what you see. I am good at throwing weapons, so allow me. “The Messenger of Allah also allowed it.

Then Samurah bin Jundab advanced. One member of his family said, “Actually Samurah is greater than Rafi.” The Prophet also allowed him.

There were six other brave young men left. Among them were Zaid bin Thabit and Abdullah bin Umar. They issued all abilities to persuade the Prophet. Do not work verbally, they persuade with tears. Not yet successful with how to peed it, they show strength by showing their muscles. But their age is still too young. And their bodies are still so small. The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam rejected them subtly while entertaining them by promising to invite them to the next war.

Finally, Zaid and Thabit along with their children began to experience their jihad in the Khandaq War. In the year 5 H.

Zaid bin Thabit radhiallahu hu anhu said, “At War Bu’ats I am 6 years old. It happened 5 years before the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam came to Medina. And at that time I was 11 years old. I met with the Prophet. They said, “There is a child from the Khazraj Kabab who has memorized 16 letters.” But he did not allow me at the Battle of Badr and Uhud. Only then will I be allowed in the Khandaq War. “

Zaid held the Bani Najjar flag at the Tabuk War. Initially the flag was held by Umarah bin Hazm, but the Prophet took it and handed it to Zaid. Umarah said, “O Messenger of Allah, is there something about me (the bad) that has come to you?” But, those who memorize the Koran more deserve to be put forward. And Zaid memorizes the Koran more than you. “

Please note, first the friends memorized 10 verses-10 verses. When they understand and practice it, they add memorization. So who memorizes the most, the better the quality between them.

Smart Anshar Youth

From Amir, he recounts:

Indeed, the ransom of the prisoners of War of Badr was 40 golden ukiyah Who has the ability to read and write, they are ordered to teach reading and writing to 10 Muslims. Among those who were taught was Zaid bin Thabit. Zaid is a scholar and has privileges in various fields. He is a memorizer of the Koran. The Prophet’s clerk who wrote the revelation that came down to the Prophet. He has a deep quality of knowledge and wisdom.

When the Prophet began to deliver the Islamic message out of Medina, making correspondence to the kings and emperors, he ordered Zaid to learn their languages. Zaid also succeeded in mastering these languages ​​in a short time.

Zaid bin Thabit said, “I was met with the Prophet when he arrived in Medina. Some say, ‘This is a child from Banu Najjar. He has memorized 17 letters (previously narrated 16). I read it in front of him. He was very impressed. Then he said, ‘Study Hebrew (Hebrew). I really can’t make them believe in my book. I did what he asked. After no more than half a month, I mastered it. Then I wrote the Prophet’s letter to them. If those who send letters to him, I’m the one who translates. “

From Thabit ibn Ubaid from Zaid ibn Thabit, he said, the Messenger of Allah said to me, “Do you speak Syriac?” “No,” I replied. “Study it. Surely the letters will come to us, “asks the Messenger of Allah. I also learned it in a span of 17 days.

We are reminded of the words of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam:

إِنَّ اللهَ يُحِبُّ مَعَالِيَ الْأُمُوْرِ وَأَشْرَافِهَا وَيَكْرَهُ سَفْسَافَهَا

“Indeed, Allah loves the best things and hates something that is careless.” (HR ath-Thabrani).

What is the influence of the education of the Prophet on the friends In addition to intelligence, of course determination and seriousness also have a big influence. So that Zaid is so fast in mastering these foreign languages.

Al-A’masy said, “There have been letters to Zaid. But he was not interested in reading it, except for those he trusted. From this he was known by the call of the Translator of the Apostle. “

Recitation of the Koran

Since the beginning of Islamic da’wah for about 20 years since the first revelation came down, there are a group of friends who are able to memorize with ordinary abilities. Some are able to memorize everything written. There are also those who memorize all the arranged verses. Among them were Ali bin Abu Talib, Ubay bin Ka’ab, Abdullah bin Masud, Abdullah bin Abbas, and Zaid bin Tsabit radhiallahu hum anhum ajma’in. After the Qur’an was revealed in a perfect manner, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam read it to the Companions in sequence as the arrangement of letters and verses that we know now.

Zaid bin Thabit radhiallahu ‘anhu had deposited his memorization with the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wa sallam in his death year. In that year, Zaid deposited his memorization twice. And qiro-at is called qiro-at Zaid bin Tsabit. Because he also wrote and submitted it to the Prophet to be corrected. And the text he read to people until he died.

Early Bookkeeping of the Koran

After the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam died, the Muslims were made busy with conflict against apostates. So that many victims fell from the Muslims. In the Battle of Yamamah (war against false prophets, Musailimah al-Kadzab) for example, a large number of Koran reciters were killed. Umar bin al-Khattab was worried that the reciters of the Koran would continue to fall because the conflict had not yet ended. He discussed the idea of ​​recording the Koran with the Caliph Abu Bakr. Then Abu Bakr was angry. Consult with friends. After that, he called Zaid bin Thabit, “Surely you are a smart young man. I will give you an important assignment … “Abu Bakr ordered him to book the Koran.

Zaid also holds great responsibility. He was tested with a heavy mandate in this big project. He checked and studied until the collected Koran was composed and divided based on each letter. Regarding this great responsibility, Zaid said, “For God’s sake! If you charge me to move the hill from its place, of course it is lighter than you command me to book the Koran. “

He also said, “I researched the Koran, collected it from palm leaves and memorized people.” But with taufik from Allah he managed to carry out the great mandate well.

Uniformity of Quran Recitations

During the government of the Caliph Uthman bin Affan radhiallahu hu anhu the number of people who embraced Islam was increasing every day. This happened in various regions. Of course this is very positive. However, this is not without gaps. These areas receive a different history of qira-at. And they don’t know the variations. So they thought that different people reading the Koran were making new readings. A new problem arises.

Through the proposal of Hudzaifah bin al-Yaman’s friend, the Caliph Uthman bin Affan also made a policy of uniformizing the recitation of the Koran. Uthman said, “Who is the most trusted person to write?” The people answered, “The author of the Prophet, Zaid bin Thabit.” Uthman again said, “Who is the most fluent in Arabic?” People answered, “Said bin al- Ash. He is one whose dialect is most similar to the Messenger of Allah. “Uthman again said,” Said who dictated and Zaid wrote. “

Zaid bin Thabit sought the help of other friends. The Companions also brought copies of the Koran that were in the home of the Prophet of the Faithful Hafshah binti Umar radhiallahu ‘anha. Friends help each other in this great and historic event. They make memorizing Zaid as a benchmark. Ibn Abbas radhiallahu ‘anhuma said,” Surely the reciters of the Koran from Muhammad’s friends knew that Zaid bin Thabit was a person who was very knowledgeable. “

The virtue of Zaid bin Thabit

The figure of a Zaid bin Thabit has a high position in the community. Muslims respect him very much. One day Zaid drove his riding animal. Then Abdullah bin Abbas took the reins and guided him. Seeing that, Zaid said, “Leave it alone O son of the Prophet’s uncle.” This is how we should respect our scholars, “Ibn Abbas answered.

The First to Obey Abu Bakr

Abu Said al-Khudri radhiallahu ‘anhu recounts:

When the Prophet sallallaahu aih alaihi wa sallam died, the Ansar people spoke up. One of them said, ai O Muhajirites, actually if the Messenger of Allah commissioned one of you, he would make one of us as his companion. Therefore, we see that after him this leadership was held by two people. One of you and one of us.

The Ansar voiced this. Then Zaid the son of Thabit stood up. He said, ungguhnya Indeed, the Prophet came from the Muhajirin. And that leadership is on Muhajirin and we are their helpers. As we have become the Prophet’s Ansar.

Abu Bakr stood up and thanked Zaid for the calm atmosphere. Abu Bakr said, ai O Ansar people, what your friends say is true. If you do that besides, of course we don’t justify it. ‘

Zaid reached Abu Bakr’s hand, then said, ‘This is your friend. Beat him.

If Abu Bakr had pilgrimage, then Umar and Zaid bin Tsabit who replaced him as caliph. Zaid was also given the mandate to divide the ghanimah in the Yarmuk War. He was also one of six fatwa experts: Umar, Ali, Ibn Mas’ud, Ubay, Abu Musa and Zaid bin Tsabit radhiallahu hum anhum ajma’in. Umar and Uthman did not exaggerate anyone in matters of justice, fatwa, faraidh, and qiroa-ah compared to Zaid ibn Thabit.

Anas bin Malik related that the Prophet sallallaahu ahu alaihi wa sallam said,

أرحم أمتي بأمتي أبو بكر وأشدهم في أمر الله عمر وأصدقهم حياء عثمان وأعلمهم بالحلال والحرام معاذ بن جبل وأفرضهم زيد بن ثابت وأقرؤهم أبي ولكل أمة أمين وأمين هذه الأمة أبو عبيدة بن الجراح

“My most loving people for others is Abu Bakr. The most solid in carrying out God’s commands is Umar. The most honest and shy is Uthman. The one who knows the most halal and haram is Mu’adz bin Jabal. The one who knows the science of fara’idh (the distribution of inheritance) is Zaid bin Tsaabit. The best recitation of the Koran is Ubay. Every Ummah has a trusted person. And the people of this faith are Abu Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah. “(HR at-Turmudzi 3791).

A prominent tabi’in, Muhammad bin Sirin, said, “Zaid bin Thabit defeated the people in two ways: the Qur’an and the Faraid.”

His death

Zaid bin Tsabit radhiallahu ‘anhu died in 45 AH during the reign of Muawiyah ibn Abu Sufyan radhiallahu‘ anhu.

On the day of Zaid’s death, Abu Hurairah said, “Today has died the request of this people. May Allah make Ibn Abbas his successor. “

Ink is an expression for the breadth of knowledge. Because in ancient times, writing science needed ink.

The story of the Prophet Moses and Harun aih Alaihimasssalam Part 5

The story of the Prophet Moses and Khadhir (Prophet Khidir)
Once the Prophet Musa berkhutbah in the midst of the Children of Israel, then he was asked, “Who are the people in the most knowledge?” He replied, “I am the person who in the most knowledge.” So Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala blamed him for not returning knowledge to -His. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala then revealed to him what he said, “That one of the servants among My servants who lived in the meeting place of the two seas was more knowledgeable than you.” Moses said, “O my Lord, how do I meet him?” So it was said to him, “Bring the fish (which are dead) in a basket. When you lose the fish, that person is there. “

Moses departed with his student Yusya ‘bin Nun by bringing fish in a basket, so that when they were both on a large rock, both of them lay their heads and slept (on the rock), then the fish escaped from the basket and took the road to the sea and how the departure made Moses and his students feel strange.

The two of them left for the rest of the night until the morning arrived. When in the morning, Moses said to his students, “Bring our food here, really we have felt tired because of this trip.” Moses did not feel fatigue except after going through the place he was told to go.

The student then said to him, “Do you know when we searched for shelter on the rock, I forgot to tell about the fish, and nothing made me forget to remember it except Satan,” Moses said, “” That (place) we are looking for. “

Then the two returned, following in their original footsteps. When they arrived at the big rock, suddenly there was a man who covered himself with cloth or covered with cloth, then Moses greeted him. Then Khadhir said, “Where are the greetings in your country?” Moses said, “I am Moses.” Khadhir said, “Is Moses (Prophet) the Children of Israel?” He replied, “Yes.” Moses said, “May I follow you so that you teach me the true knowledge that has been taught to you (to be) a clue? “Khadhir said,” Surely you will not be able to be patient with me, O Moses? “Surely I am above the knowledge of the knowledge of Allah that He taught me that you did not know, so also you are above the knowledge that He taught you and I do not know it. “Moses said,” You will find me inshallah as a patient person and I will not disobey your commands. “

Both of them went walking on the seafront, while the two of them did not have a boat, then there was a boat that crossed the two of them, so the two spoke to their passengers to catch them both, and it was discovered (by the occupants) that the Khadhir was asking, then they also transport both without wages.

Suddenly there was a bird and then went down to the edge of the boat then pecked once or twice into the sea. Khadhir said, “O Moses, my knowledge and knowledge that comes from God is nothing but the pecking of this bird to the sea (nothing in front of Allah’s knowledge), then Khadhir comes to the board between the boards of the boat and then pulls it out.” the situation) Moses said, “The person who has brought us without asking for compensation, but instead you hole the boat so that the occupants sink.” Khadhir said, “Did I not say to you, that you will not be patient with me.” Moses said, thou hast judged me for my sins, and thou shalt not impose me a difficult thing.

For the first time Moses forgot, then both of them left, suddenly there was a child who was playing with other children, then Khadhir held his head from above, then pulled his head with his hand. Moses said, “Do you want to kill a clean soul not because he killed someone else.” Khadhir said, “Surely you will not be able to be patient with me.”

Both of them walked, so that when they arrived at the inhabitants of a village, both of them asked that the residents entertain them, but were not given. Both of them got a wall that almost collapsed, then Khadhir straightened it, Khadhir did it with his hand. Moses also said, “If you want, surely you can ask for a reward for that.” So Khadhir said, “This is the separation between me and you.”

Then Khadhir conveyed the reasons for his actions, he said:

“The ship belongs to the poor who work in the sea, and I aim to destroy the ship, because before them there is a king who seizes every ship. – And as for the young man, then the two (his parents) are people believers, and we are worried that he will encourage his parents to go astray and disbelief. –And we want God to replace them with another child who is better in his holiness from his child and deeper in his affection (to his father’s mother ) .– The wall of the house belongs to two orphans in the city, and beneath it is treasure for both of them, while his father is a righteous person, so your Lord wants them to come to maturity and take out his savings, as a mercy from Your Lord; and I did not do it according to my own will. That is the purpose of actions that you cannot be patient with. ” (Surah Al Kahf: 79-82).

The story of the female cow
At the time of the Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) there were some strange things, including the story of the killing of one of the Children of Israel who was not known who was the killer. They have searched for who killed him but still do not know who the killer was. When they were tired of looking for it, they remembered that in the midst of them there was the Prophet Musa aih alaihissalam, then some of them came to him and asked him to pray to Allah so He would tell who was the killer.

Then the Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) prayed to Allah to resolve the problem, then Allah revealed to the Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) that he commanded them to slaughter a female cow.

When they heard the order, they were astonished and thought that it was only making fun of them, so that the Children of Israel did not immediately carry out the order, even asking again about the characteristics of the female cow and asking for a more detailed explanation of its characteristics.

Because they did not immediately carry out the order even burdening themselves by asking more in detail about their characteristics so that they were given a burden with a heavier burden, they were told different characteristics from other female cows.

Allah told them to slaughter a cow that was not young and not old who had given birth a lot, but the cow was still strong who had given birth only once or twice. If they do it right away, it will certainly be easy to get it, but they instead ask the Prophet Musa for its characteristics; they asked what color it was, so Prophet Musa “Peace be upon him said,” Verily Allah said that the female cow was a yellow female cow, whose color was dark yellow, again pleasing the people who looked at it. “

They continued to ask about the female cow so that they were burdened with even more burdens, namely the order of the Prophet Musa ‘peace be upon him next, “Verily Allah said that the female cow was a female cow that had never been used to plow the land and not to irrigate crops , no blemish, no stripes. “

They also said, “Now you explain the true nature of the female cow”.

then they looked for the cow with difficulty until they finally found it and bought it at a price that was quite expensive, they slaughtered it and almost they did not carry out the order. “(See. QS. Al Baqarah: 69-71)

Next the Prophet Musa peace be upon him approached the cow and took part of his body, then he used to hit the murdered person, then suddenly the killed man could move after Allah returned him to him, then he told him who the killer was, his brother’s son, then he died again. This includes a great miracle from God to show the truth of Prophet Musa aih Peace be upon him.

The story of Moses with Qarun
Qarun including the people of Prophet Musa aih Peace be upon him. He is a rich man, many assets and savings, even the keys to his wealth cannot be taken except by strong people.

However, Qarun disobeyed the Prophet Moses and Aaron, he did not accept the advice of both, and he thought that the wealth and enjoyment he got was because he had the right to own it and that he obtained it because of his knowledge.

One day, Qarun went to Medina with large jewelry and lots of equipment while wearing good clothes. When he passed humans, some people approached him to give him advice by saying, “Don’t be too proud; surely Allah does not like those who are too proud of themselves. —and seek what Allah has bestowed on you (happiness) in the Hereafter, and do not forget your part from (worldly) pleasure and do good (to others) as Allah has done good to you, and do not do damage on the face of the earth. Lo! Allah does not like those who do harm. (Surat al-Qasas: 76-77)

So Qarun rejected the advice arrogantly, he said, “Indeed, I was only given the treasure, because the knowledge is mine.”

He thought that the property he acquired was due to his intelligence and abilities.

One time the Qarun came out before the people with a procession complete with guards, servants and all their luxuries to show their splendor to their people. At that time, some humans were slandered (astonished) with the wealth and jewels of Qarun, they wished if they had as they had Qarun, but the pious people among them said, “The reward of Allah is better for those who believe and do good works. “

When the Qarun continued to be arrogant and arrogant, then Allah buried Qarun and his house into the earth, and no one was able to help him, and at that time, the people who yesterday aspired to the position of the Qarun, said, “Oh, God is right enlarge the sustenance for whom He wants from his servants and narrow it down; if God does not bestow His gift upon us truly He has immersed us (also). O, it is not fortunate for those who deny (Allah’s favor). “(QS. Al-Qasas: 82)

Death of Prophet Musa Musa Alaihissalam
The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam told about the death of the Prophet Moses aih Peace be upon him as follows:

جَاءَ مَلَكُ الْمَوْتِ إِلَى مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ. فقال له: أجب ربك قال فلطم موسى عليه السلام عين ملك الموت ففقأها, قال فرجع الملك إلى الله تعالى فقال: إنك أرسلتني إلى عبد لك لا يريد الموت, وقد فقأ عيني, قال فرد الله إليه عينه وقال: ارجع إلى عبدي فقل: الحياة تريد ؟ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ تُرِيدُ الْحَيَاةَ فَضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَى مَتْنِ ثَوْرٍ ، فَمَا تَوَارَتْ يَدُكَ مِنْ شَعْرَةٍ ت،عِيشُ بَهَا سَنَةً ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ مَهْ؟ قال: ثم تموت, قال: فالآن من قريب, رب أمتني من الأرض المقدسة, رمية بحجر, قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «والله لو أني عنده لأريتكم قبره إلى جانب الطريق, عند الكثيب الأحمر»

“The angel of death came to the Prophet Moses’ peace be upon him, then the angel said to him,” Fill your Lord. “So the Prophet Moses immediately struck the eyes of the angel of death and striking, then the angel returned to Allah Ta’ala and said,” You sent me to a servant who do not want to die. “And he strained my eyes, then God returned his eyes and said,” Return to my servant and say, “Do you want to live?” If you want to live, then put your hands on the back of the cow, then your life until as much time as the feathers are covered by your hands. You can still live a year. “Then Moses said,” Next what? “Allah said,” Then you die. “Moses said,” Then now immediately. “O my Lord, turn me off near a holy country whose distance is as far as throwing stones “The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said,” By Allah, if I were near there, of course I would tell you the graves on the side of the road, near the red sand dunes. “(Narrated by Muslim)

It is stated in the history, that the angels who took care of his funeral and who overtook him. At that time, he was 120 years old.

Finished with the help of Allah and His taufiq, wa sallallaahu ‘alaa nabiyyinaa Muhammad wa‘ alaa aalihi wa shahbihi wa sallam.

The story of the Prophet Moses and Harun aih Alaihimasssalam Part 4

Prophet Moses aih Alaihissalam Receiving the Torah
The Children of Israel live in security and peace, and they need a law that they can use as a rule of life and the Shari’a that governs them, so Allah revealed to Moses to go out to a certain place to accept the Shari’a which Bani would later refer to. Israel, he appointed Aaron as his successor; advised him and reminded him of God and warned him not to be people who tried to do damage on earth.

He went to the mountain which he had received revelation the first time when he returned from Madyan to Egypt and typed it was revealed to him the book of the Torah. And when Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) witnessed that Allah had glorified him and given advantages, he asked Allah to be given the opportunity to see Him because he thought that Allah could be seen in the world, so Allah refused the request and explained that He would not be able to see God ‘Grace. Mentioned this incident in the letter Al A’raaf: 143, Allah Ta’ala said,

“And when Moses came to (munajat with us) at the time that We had determined and God had said (directly) to him, Moses said,” O my Lord, show (yourself) to me so that I can see You. “Allah said,” You cannot see Me, but look at the hill, so if he stays in his place (as before) you can see Me. “When his Lord appeared to the mountain, he made the mountain broken and Moses also knocked out. then after Moses regained consciousness, he said, “Glory to You, I repent to You and I am the first to believe.”

Then the Prophet Musa aih alaihissalam took lauh-lauh which contained the Torah, in the book there were advice and laws to govern the life of the Children of Israel.

The Children of Israel Worship the Calf Statue
After the death of Moses, it turned out that the Children of Israel were distorted by a man named Samiri, he collected their jewelry and gold and made a hollow statue in the form of a calf, where if the wind enters from one hole and exits the other hole, it will come out the sound that resembled the sound of a calf, then Samiri told them, that it was their god and god Moses, finally the Children of Israel believed and worshiped the statue leaving worshiping Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala. So the Prophet Aaron advised and reminded them, but they remained above that ignorance, unconscious and not paying attention to Aaron’s advice, they even denied him and almost killed him. They also told them that they would not leave worship to the statue until Moses returned.

When Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) returned, he found his people in such circumstances, he was angry with great anger in disappointment mixed with sadness, so he threw lauh-lauh (sheet) containing the Torah from his hand, then he went to Prophet Aaron, holding his head and beard while pulling and said, “O Harun! What hinders you when you see them gone astray – (so) you do not follow me? Then have you (intentionally) disobeyed my command? “(QS. Thaahaa: 92-93)

Aaron said, “O my mother’s son! Do not hold my beard and do not (nor) my head, “I am afraid that you will say (to me),” You have divided between the Children of Israel and you have not kept my message. “

He also told the Prophet Moses that his people almost killed him, so Moses left him and went to Samiri; the person who made the statue and asked about the reason, then Samiri told him the reason, then Moses burned the statue to the ground and dumped the pulp into the sea.

Then the Prophet Moses said to his people, “O my people! Surely you have persecuted yourself because you have made a calf (your worship), then repent to the Lord who made you and kill yourself. It is better for you in the sight of the Lord who made you; then Allah will accept your repentance. Verily He is the One Who Receives repentance, the Most Merciful. “(See Al Baqarah: 54)

Then Allah ‘Azza waalla informed Moses, that Aaron had departed from them and he had tried hard to keep them from worshiping a calf statue, then the heart of the Prophet Moses was calm because it turned out that his brother did not participate in the sinful act, the Prophet Musa ‘alaihissalam confronted himself with Allah’ Azza wa Jalla asked forgiveness for himself and his brother, He said, “O my Lord, forgive me and my brother and enter us into Your mercy, and Thou art the Most Merciful among the merciful.” (See Al A’raaf: 151)

Then the Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) chose seventy of the best people from among them to go with him to a place determined by Allah za Almighty Allah. When they arrived at the place, they even asked to see God in a real way, so the Prophet Moses was angry with them violently, and Allah sent down lightning which destroyed them until their souls floated. Then Prophet Musa Musa Peace be upon him praying to Allah and humbling himself to Him asking that He give them mercy. So Allah granted the request of Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) and He brought to life those who died because they were struck by lightning so that they thanked Allah za Azza wa Jalla for bringing them to life after their death (see Al Baqarah: 55-56).

Then the Prophet Moses brought them back to his people and read the Torah to them and explained the advice and laws contained therein. He also took an agreement from them to want to practice the contents, they also wanted to promise with a forced after God lifted the mountain above them. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala said:

“And (remember), when We took a promise from you and We lifted the hill (Mount of Sinai) above you (as We said),” Hold fast what We give to you and listen! “They replied,” We hear but do not obey “And they were absorbed into their hearts (love of worshiping) calves because of their disbelief. Say, “It is very evil that you have commanded your faith in you if you truly believe (in the Torah).” (Surat al-Baqarah: 93)

Allah’s order to the Children of Israel to Enter the Palestinian State
Furthermore, Allah gave revelations to the Prophet Musa peace be upon him, that the time had come for the Children of Israel to enter and occupy a blessed country, namely Palestine, so the Prophet Musa alaihissalam was very happy, but the Children of Israel turned out to be cowards and cowards, they said to the Prophet Moses’ peace be upon him, “O Moses! Surely in those countries there are men who are mighty, surely we will not enter it before they come out of it. If they come out of it, surely we will enter it. “(See Al Maa’idah: 22)

At that time there were two believers among them who said, “Destroy them by going through the gate (city), then if you enter it, you will win. And only to God should you put your trust, if you are truly a believer. “

But the Children of Israel still refused and said in very bad words, “O Moses! We will never enter it once and for all, while they are in it, therefore go with your Lord, and fight both of you, in fact we are just sitting here waiting. “(Surah Al Maa’idah: 23-24)

So the anger of the Prophet Moses to his people who forgot the favor of Allah. It was then that the Prophet Moses prayed to God to distance himself from his wicked people, he said, “My Lord, I do not master except myself and my brother. Therefore separate us from those who are wicked. “(Ex. QS. Al Maa’idah: 25)

Punishment of the Children of Israel for Refusing God’s Orders Subhanahu wa Ta’ala
Then came the answer from Allah “the Almighty which contained,” (If so), then in fact the land was forbidden for them for forty years, (during that time) they would spin around in confusion on the earth (the sahara desert). So do not grieve (think of the fate) of those who are wicked. “(Surah Al Maa’idah: 26).

Thus God’s punishment to the Children of Israel, they continued to go astray for forty years in the Sahara, until this timid generation died and was replaced by a brave generation who then wanted to fight under the leadership of Prophet Yusya ‘bin Nun after Prophet Moses died.
