*AR-RAHĪQ AL-MAKHTOUM (The Pure Nectar). A Treaties On Prophet Muhammad's Biography.*

*Part 160*

*THE LESSER PILGRIMAGE ('UMRAH) OF AL-HUDAIBIYYA IN DHUL-QA'ADAH, 6 A.H. continues*

*MUSLIMS MOVE TOWARDS MECCA*

The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) headed for Mecca and when they reached Dhul-Hulaifa, he made the offering and assumed the state of ihrām for offering 'Umrah so that the people of Mecca would know he wanted no fight. He sent a spy of Khuzā'a to get information about Quraish. When he (the Prophet) approached 'Usfān, his spy came and said that Quraish mobilised the Habshis

(They are Arab septs of Kināna and other tribes. They were named after a mountain called 'Hubsheyy' that is six miles away from Mecca. Behind it Banul-Hārith Ibn 'Abd Manāf Ibn Kināna, Banu Al-Mustaliq, Al-Haya Ibn Sa'ad Ibn 'Umar and Banu Al-Hun Ibn Khazīma assembled and allied with Quraish to combat their enemy all together.)

and many troops to fight and prevent the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) from the Sacred House. The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) consulted with his Companions about a decision they should take and said: "What do you think if we take the children and women of those who collided with Quraish captive? If they kept their ground, they would stay grieved and sorry. If they escape, this would be necks that Allāh decreed to be cut off. Or do you want to go straight towards the Sacred House and fight those who prevent us from it?" Abu Bakr said: "Allāh and His Messenger know best. We came merely to perform 'Umrah, not to combat anyone. But I see that we should fight anyone who prevents us from the Sacred House." The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) replied: "So move on."

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will p
