List of non-Arab Sahaba

Muhammad had many Sahaba from amongst the Arabs, from many different tribes. However, he also

had many non-arabs Sahaba, from many different ethnicities. Some of these non-Arabs were among the

most beloved and loyal individuals to Muhammad. The inclusion of these non-Arabs among the original

followers of Muhammad and Islam represents the universality of the message of Islam.

Habesha people (of Ethiopia and Eritrea)

Wahshy ibn Harb- he killed Hamza, Muhammad's beloved uncle and a leading Muslim general and

formidable soldier, but redeemed himself when he converted to Islam. He later killed Musaylimah, the

most formidable opponent of the Muslims during the Wars of Apostasy.

Bilal ibn Ribah- while still a slave, he converted to Islam and defiantly resisted torture and persecution

(for his conversion) from his pagan slave-master. He later became the first muezzin (caller to prayer)

in Islamic history.

Usama ibn Zayd- loved by Muhammad almost as equal to a grandson. He was the youngest person

ever to be appointed a general by Muhammad.

Umm Ayman (Barakah)- she was around Muhammad from his birth until his death and was the closest

example of a mother to him (after his own mother’s death when he was a child). She was the mother

of Usama ibn Zayd.

Al-Nahdiah- she converted to Islam while she was a slave, but refused to abandon her new faith even

after being tortured and persecuted by her pagan slave-master. She was later freed from slavery.

Lubaynah- she converted to Islam while she was a slave, but refused to abandon her new faith even

after being persecuted by her then pagan slave-master. She was later freed from slavery.

Umm Ubays- she converted to Islam while she was a slave, but refused to abandon her new faith even

after being tortured and persecuted by her pagan slave-master. She was later freed from slavery.

She was the daughter of Al-Nahdiah.

Harithah bint al-Muammil- she converted to Islam while she was a slave, but refused to abandon her

new faith even after being persecuted to such a severe extent that she lost her eye sight. She was

later freed from slavery. Umm Ubays was her sister.

Comorian

Fey Bedja Mwamba- He was (according to local Comorian legend) a Comorian noble who originally

brought Islam to the Comoros Islands (during Muhammad’s lifetime) after having visited Mecca

during Muhammad’s lifetime and there converted to Islam.

Page 17: List of Sahaba R.A

Mtswa Mwandze- He was (according to local Comorian legend) a Comorian noble who originally

brought Islam to the Comoros Islands (during Muhammad’s lifetime) after having visited Mecca

during Muhammad’s lifetime and there converted to Islam.

Copt (Native Egyptian)

Maria al-Qibtiyya- she was one of the Ummahat-al-Mu'mineen (Mother of the Believers) and was the

mother of Muhammad's third son Ibrahim.

Sirin- she was the wife of Hassan ibn Thabit, who was one of the best Arab poets of the time. Maria al-

Qibtiyya was her sister.

Hellenized Arab

Suhayb ar-Rumi- He was an Arab who was taken prisoner while still a little boy by Byzantine Empire

soldiers, when they attacked a village he was in. Thereafter, for about twenty years he passed from

one Byzantine slave-master to another and grew up speaking Greek and practically forgot Arabic. He

later escaped from slavery and headed for Mecca- which was considered a place of asylum. There

people called him Suhayb ar-Rumi (Suhayb the Roman) because of his peculiarly heavy speech and

blond hair. Later in Mecca, after meeting with Muhammad, he converted to Islam. When Muhammad

migrated from Mecca to Medina, Suhayb gave up his vast wealth in order to be alongside him in

Medina. His standing among the Muslims was so high that he was nominated by the Caliph Umar ibn

al-Khattab to lead the Muslims (both in prayers and as head of the Muslim community) in the period

between his (Umar’s) death and the election of his successor.

Jewish

Abdullah ibn Salam- he was a rabbi before his conversion to Islam and was the first Muslim that was

explicitly promised Paradise (by Muhammad) while he was still alive.

Safiyya bint Huyayy- she was one of the Ummahat-al-Mu'mineen (Mother of the Believers).

Rayhana- she was one of the Ummahat-al-Mu'mineen (Mother of the Believers).

Page 18: List of Sahaba R.A

Pashtun

Qais Abdur Rashid (also known as Imraul Qais Khan) - he was a legendary ancestor of the Pashtuns,

who traveled from Afghanistan to Arabia to meet Muhammad and there embraced Islam, before

returning to his people and introducing them to the faith.

Persian

Salman the Persian- he was born in Persia but embarked on a long and continuous journey (away

from his homeland) in search of the truth. He ultimately reached his destination in Arabia, when he

met Muhammad and converted to Islam. It was his suggestion to build a trench in the Battle of the

Trench that ultimately resulted in a defeat for the force of the enemies of the Muslims.

Fayruz al-Daylami-

Munabbih ibn Kamil- he was a Persian knight. He had two sons, who were both Islamic scholars.

Salim Mawla Abu-Hudhayfah- he was a highly respected and valued Muslim (among his fellow

Muslims), who died while fighting against the forces of Musaylimah during the Wars of Apostasy.

Umar ibn al-Khattāb suggested he would have designated Salim as his successor to the Caliphate

had he still been alive.

Tamil

Cheraman Perumal- he was a king of the Chera Dynasty who gave up his kingdom to personally go

and meet Muhammad after witnessing a miracle. He embraced Islam in the presence of Muhammad

and later died in Arabia during his journey back to his homeland in India.

Unknown Ethnicity

Addas- he was a young Christian slave boy (originally from Nineveh) who was the first person from

Taif to convert to Islam.

See also

Al-Najashi- he was the king of Abyssinia who allowed a number of Muslims (who were being

persecuted by the pagans of Arabia) to live safely under his protection in his kingdom. He later

converted to Islam and when he passed away, Muhammad observed prayer in absentia for him.

Badhan (Persian Governor)- he was the Sassanid Persian Governor of Yemen who converted to Islam

after one of Muhammad’s prophecies was proven to be correct. As a result, every Persian in Yemen

followed his example and also converted to Islam.

3. The senior companions of those who fought at the Battle of Badr (all those who fought at Badr

having been promised paradise);

4. Those who gave bay`at al-ridwân (from Bay'ah or oath of allegiance) under the tree and

those Ansar distinguished for the two pacts preceding Hijra;

5. Those who adopted Islam in the year of the conquest of Mecca; and finally

6. The younger companions who saw Muhammad as s child.

Al-Suyuti in Tarih-ul-Khulafa: Al-Suyuti states as follows in the book entitled Tarih-ul-Khulafa: As is

unanimously stated by scholars of Sunni Islam, the (earliest) four caliphs of Muhammad are the highest

ones of the Sahaba. The next highest Sahaba are the remaining six of the ten fortunate people who

were blessed with the Glad Tidings of Paradise, and also Hasan ibn Ali and Husayn ibn Ali. The

highest Sahaba next after them are the 313 Sahaba who, together with these 12 (highest) Sahaba,

Page 26: List of Sahaba R.A

joined the Battle of Badr. The next highest Sahaba are the 700 of them who fought in the Battle of

Uhud. The next highest Sahaba are the 1,400 persons who promised Muhammad, saying, "We will

rather die than go back," in the sixth year of the Hijra. The well-known covenant is called Bi’at ur-

Ridwan.

Tafsir Bahr-ul-’ulûm by Aladdin Alî Samarkandi: It is stated as follows in a hadith quoted in the book

of tafsir entitled Bahr-ul-’ulûm by Aladdin Alî Samarkandi who died in the Anatolian city Larende

(today Karaman, Turkey) in the year 860: "Abu Bakr is the most compassionate Muslim in this Ummah.

Umar has the rigidest religious perseverance. Uthman has the most hayâ (sense of shame). Ali is the one

who answers every question in the Islamic Law. Muadh is the one who is most knowledgeable

in halals and harams. Abiyy bin Ka’b is the best reader (or reciter) of the Qur'an al-kerîm. Huzayfa-t-ibn

Yeman is the one who recognizes the hypocrites. He who wants to see Isa should look at the zuhd Abu

Zer has! Paradise is in love withSalman el Farisi. Khalid ibn al-Walid is the sword of Allah. Hamza is the

"lion of Allah". Hasan and Huseyn are the highest ones of the young people of Paradise. Jafar ibn Abi

Talib will be flying with the angels in Paradise. Bilal will be the first to open the gate of Paradise. Suhayb

ar-Rumi will be the first to drink from my pond kawthar. On the Rising Day, Abu Darda will be the first

person with whom angels will shake hands. Every prophet has a friend. Sa’ad bin Muadh is my friend.

There are people whom every prophet chooses from among his Ummah.Talha and Zubayr are the ones I

have chosen. Every prophet has an assistant who performs his private chores. Anas ibn Malik is my

assistant. There are hakîms in every Ummah. Abu Hurairah is the one of my Ummat who utters the

most hikmah. Hassan bin Thabit'sspeech has been endowed with a powerful effect by Allah. The voice

of Abu Talha in the battlefield is stronger than that of a division of soldiers."

Number of companions

Some Muslims assert that there were more than 200,000. It is believed that 124,000 witnessed The

Farewell Sermon Muhammad delivered after making his last pilgrimage, or Hajj, to Mecca.

The book entitled Istî’âb fî ma’rifat-il-Ashâb by Hafidh Yusuf bin Muhammad bin Qurtubi (death 1071)

consists of 2,770 biographies of male Sahaba and 381 biographies of female Sahaba.

According to an observation in the book entitled Mawâhib-i-ladunniyya, an untold number of persons had

already converted to Islam by the time Muhammad died. There were 10,000 Sahaba by the time Mecca

was conquered and 70,000 Sahaba during the Battle of Tabouk in 630.

Uthman and Muhammad ibn Abu Bakr Misconception

A group of seven hundred Egyptians came to complain to Caliph `Uthman about their governor Ibn Abi

Sarh’s tyranny, so `Uthman said: "Choose someone to govern you." They chose Muhammad ibn Abi

Bakr, so `Uthman wrote credentials for him and they returned. On their way back, at three days’ distance

from Madinah, a messenger caught up with them with the news that he carried orders from `Uthman to

the governor of Egypt. They searched him and found a message from `Uthman to ibn Abi Sarh ordering

the death of Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr and some of his friends. They returned to Madinah and besieged

`Uthman. `Uthman acknowledged that the camel, the slave, and the seal on the letter belonged to him,

but he swore that he had never written nor ordered the letter to be written. It was discovered that the letter

had been hand-written by Marwan ibn al-Hakam.

In this year Hātib b. Abi Balta'ah came back from al-Muqawqis bringing Māriyah and her sister Sīrīn (Sîrîn

bint Sham'ûn), his female mule Duldul, his donkey Ya'fūr, and sets of garments. With the two women al-

Muqawqis had sent a eununch, and the latter stayed with them. Hātib had invited them to become

Muslims before he arrived with them, and Māriyah and her sister did so. The Messenger of God lodged

them with Umm Sulaym bt. Milhān. Māriyah was beautiful. The Prophet sent her sister Sīrīn to Hassān b.

Thābitand she bore him 'Abd al-Rahmān b. Hassān. —Tabari, History of the Prophets and Kings

When Caliph Umar the Great's general, 'Amr ibn al-'As known to the Romans as Amru, threatened

the Prefecture of Egypt, Cyrus was madeprefect and entrusted with the conduct of the war. Certain

humiliating stipulations, to which he subscribed for the sake of peace, angered his imperial master so

much that he was recalled and harshly accused of connivance with the Rashidun Caliphate; however, he

was soon restored to his former authority, owing to the impending siege of Alexandria, but could not avert

the fall of the great city in 640 and died shortly after.

List of Sahaba not giving bay'ah to Abu Bakr

This is a list of Sahaba not giving bay'ah to Abu Bakr. The Sahaba were the companions

of Muhammad; bay'ah is the Islamic term for a formal oath of allegiance.

Introduction

After the death of the Muhammad, Abu Bakr came into power following the meeting at the Saqifah of Banu

Sa'ida, becoming the first Caliph.

While no one source lists all these persons, this article lists the individuals as mentioned in a multitude of

sources, and provides the sources where each name appears, and the context in which they are mentioned.

Additionally, not all sources state how long each individual withheld his bay'ah. Shi'as have maintained that Ali

never paid allegiance to Abu Bakr, and there is support for this in both Shi'a and Sunni historical texts. A few

Sunni sources, however, have suggested that Ali withheld for only six months. The details of whether Ali ever

consented to pay allegiance to Abu Bakr are not mentioned in the sources themselves, but are generally taken

Page 37: List of Sahaba R.A

as added by latter interpretors. Shi'a ideology maintains that Ali was forcibly taken to Abu Bakr, who later

staged a mock allegiance ceremony to consolidate his power.

Banu Hashim

Ali

Muhammad al-Bukhari, a 9th century Sunni Shafi'i Islamic scholar narrates "'Ali and Zubair and

whoever was with them, opposed us, while the emigrants gathered with Abu Bakr." and "Ali noticed

Nothing. 'Ali had not given the oath of allegiance during those months (i.e. the period between the

Page 38: List of Sahaba R.A

Prophet's death and Fatima's death, Fatima's (daughter of Muhammad) funeral was held secret and Ali did

not inform Abu Bakar as per will of Fatima)...(and Ali said) But we used to consider that we too had some

right in this affair (of rulership) and that he (i.e. Abu Bakr) did not consult us in this matter, and therefore

caused us to feel sorry"

Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj, a 9th century Sunni Shafi'i Jariri Islamic scholar narrates the same as Muhammad

al-Bukhari.

Ibn Qutaybah, a 9th century Sunni Islamic scholar narrates "I am the servant of God and the brother of

the Messenger of God. I am thus more worthy of this office than you. I shall not give allegiance to you [Abu

Bakr & Umar] when it is more proper for you to give bay’ah to me. You have seized this office from the

Ansar using your tribal relationship to the Prophet as an argument against them. Would you then seize this

office from us, the ahl al-bayt by force? Did you not claim before the Ansar that you were more worthy than

they of the caliphate because Muhammad came from among you – and thus they gave you leadership and

surrendered command? I now contend against you with the same argument…It is we who are more worthy

of the Messenger of God, living or dead. Give us our due right if you truly have faith in God, or else bear

the charge of wilfully doing wrong[9]

... Umar, I will not yield to your commands: I shall not pledge loyalty to

him.' Ultimately Abu Bakr said, 'O 'Ali! If you do not desire to give your bay'ah, I am not going to force you

for the same.' "[10]

Ya'qubi, a 9th century Sunni Islamic scholar narrates "A group of Muhajirs and Ansars kept themselves

aloof from allegiance to Abu Bakr and were followers of Hazrat Ali

Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari, a 10th century Sunni Shafi'i Jariri Islamic scholar narrates "What

prevented us from allegiance to you was not our denial of your virtue, nor was it envy of anything with

which God has favoured you. Rather we believe that we have a rightful share in this affair, which you have

denied us"

Ibn Abu al-Hadid, a 13th century Mu'tazili Islamic scholar says that they did not dare to force Ali into

Baya while Fatimah was alive.

Abbas ibn `Abd al-Muttalib

Ibn Qutaybah, a 9th century Sunni Islamic scholar narrates that Al-`Abbas ibn `Abdul-Muttalib had told

Abu Bakr that "If you demanded what you demanded through kinship to the Messenger of Allah, then

you had confiscated our own. If you had demanded it due to your position among Muslims, then ours is

a more prestigious than yours. If this affair is accomplished when the believers are pleased with it, then

it cannot be so as long as we are displeased therewith."

Ya'qubi, a 9th century Sunni Islamic scholar narrates "A group of Muhajirs and Ansars kept themselves

aloof from allegiance to Abu Bakr and were followers of Hazrat Ali [as]. Among them were Abbas Bin

Abdu'l-Muttalib...

Arabian tribes that interacted with Muhammad

Introduction

The most prominent of such Arabian tribes were the Banu Quraish (Arabic for "Sons of Quraish") which were in

turn divided into several sub-clans. The Qur'aish sub-clan of Banu Hashim was the clan of Muhammad, while

their sister sub-clan, the Banu Abd-Shams became known as his most staunch enemies. After Muhammad, the

Muslim nation was ruled exclusively through the Banu Quraish tribe, all the way until the Ottoman Turks came

into power.

Other tribes include various ones that were centered on different cities, for example the Banu Thaqif and

the Banu Utub.

Notable are the Jewish tribes that had settled in Medina, they would play a prominent part in Muhammad's life,

this included the Banu Qurayza, Banu Nadir and the Banu Qainuqa, they participiated in the Battle of

Bu'ath,although they had a truce and an agreement with Muslims not to join the opposing armies, but they

broke them.

Ethiopia (Abyssinia or Al-Habasha) This post will inshaAllah show the connection between what is today known as Ethiopia (and surrounding

areas) and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). This post will show that there are

connections on a personal level with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and Ethiopians,

between the Ummah and the Ethiopian State, and companions who were Ethiopians. This post aims not

to promote Ethiopia, but rather to show the historical connections as modern reporting often paints

Ethiopia as a country and Ethiopians as a people as being opposed to Islam and Muslims - I'd like to

show that historically and presently this is not the complete story (and that such generalizations often turn

out to be false), with a final point addressing Islam in Ethiopia today.

Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and Ethiopians

Umm Ayman, who is also known as Barakah, was an Ethiopian slave (later freed by the Prophet - peace

and blessings be upon him). Umm Ayman spent time with the mother of Allah's Messenger and reported

what happened before and after the birth of him (peace and blessings be upon him). Umm Ayman was

the first person to hold the Prophet after his birth (peace and blessings be upon him), in her arms. She

was alone with the Prophet's mother when she died and dug the grave with her own hands, after doing

that she returned the orphaned child to Mekkah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was

given to his grandfather and Umm Ayman stayed there to care for him. She continued to care for the

Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when his grandfather died and he went to live with Abu Talib.

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, called Umm Ayman "mother" (may Allah be pleased with

her). It has been said:

"Barakah was unique in that she was the only one who was so close to the Prophet throughout his life

from birth till death. Her life was one of selfless service in the Prophet's household. She remained deeply

devoted to the person of the noble, gentle and caring Prophet. Above all, her devotion to the religion of

Islam was strong and unshakable. She died during the caliphate of Uthman. Her roots were unknown but

her place in Paradise was assured."

Hijrah (1st and 2nd)

The Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you were to go to Abyssinia (it would be

better for you), for the king will not tolerate injustice and it is a friendly country, until such time as Allah

shall relieve you from your distress." Due to the great torture being dealt to the Muslims in Mekkah, many

companions migrated to Ethiopia for the sake of Allah. This was the first hijra in Islam. As the Prophet

(peace and blessings be upon him) foretold, those Muslims who migrated to Ethiopia were treated well,

lived in peace and freedom to worship Allah as Muslims. After having lived in Ethiopia for one-year the

companions (may Allah be pleased with them all) heard that the situation in Mekkah had improved, and

Page 48: List of Sahaba R.A

decided to return. However, upon arrival in Mekkah the real situation turned out to be worse than what

they had fled from in the first place. This resulted in the second hijrah in Islam, where more than 100

Muslims migrated to Ethiopia, led by Jaafer ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him). This second

migration took place one year after the first one.

Ethiopian Companions (may Allah be pleased with them all)

• Bilal ibn Rabah, the first person to make call to prayer in Islam and who suffered great torture for Allah's

sake, was an Ethiopian - may Allah be pleased with him. He (may Allah be pleased with him) was one of

the earliest Muslims and most trusted by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

• Wahshi ibn Harb (may Allah be pleased with him) that killed the false prophet Musaylimah, when

Musaylimah and his followers attacked the Muslims.

• Usama ibn Ribah the youngest person to be appointed a General and treated almost as a grandson by

the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

• Umm Ayman also known as Barakah (may Allah be pleased with her) the mother of Usama (may Allah

be pleased with him) and acted as mother figure for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

• Al Nahdiah suffered great torture for Allah's sake as a slave, until she was freed (may Allah be pleased

with her).

• Lubaynah also suffered great torture for Allah's sake as a slave until freed (may Allah be pleased with

her).

• Umm Ubays is the daughter of Lubaynah (may Allah be pleased with them both) and was also tortured

for her belief in Islam.

• Harithah bint al Muammil (may Allah be pleased with her) was tortured for Allah's sake to the extent that

she became blind.

Islam in Ethiopia today

By moderate estimates, there are more than 35 million Muslims in Ethiopia making it the 3rd largest

Muslim population in Africa. In addition to the place of hijrah, Ethiopia is home to Harar, which is

surrounded by a 1000-year-old wall within which 100 masajid can be found. For the last half-century

Muslims in Ethiopia have been economically and socially oppressed. Despite the millions of foreign

dollars and thousands of Christian missionaries working in Ethiopia, the Muslim population continues to

rise each year.

Sahaba in the Qur'an

The Qur'an, chapter 3 (Aale Imran), verse 103:

“ And hold fast, all together, by the rope which Allah (stretches out for you), and be not divided among yourselves; and remember with gratitude Allah's favour on you; for ye were enemies and He joined your hearts in love, so that by His Grace, ye became brethren; and ye were on the brink of the pit of Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus doth Allah make His Signs clear to you: That ye may be guided.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 8 (Al-Anfal), verse 72:

“ Those who believed, and adopted exile, and fought for the Faith, with their property and their persons, in the cause of Allah, as well as those who gave (them) asylum and aid,- these are (all) friends and protectors, one of another. As to those who believed but came not into exile, ye owe no duty of protection to them until they come into exile; but if they seek your aid in religion, it is your duty to help them, except against a people with whom ye have a treaty of mutual alliance. And (remember) Allah seeth all that ye do.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 8 (Al-Anfal), verse 74 to 75:

“ Those who believe, and adopt exile, and fight for the Faith, in the cause of Allah as well as those who give (them) asylum and aid,- these are (all) in very truth the Believers: for them is the forgiveness of sins and a provision most generous.

And those who accept Faith subsequently, and adopt exile, and fight for the Faith in your company,-

they are of you. But kindred by blood have prior rights against each other in the Book of Allah. Verily

Allah is well-acquainted with all things.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 9 (At-Tawba), verse 40:

“ If ye help not (your leader), (it is no matter): for Allah did indeed help him, when the Unbelievers drove him out: he had no more than one companion;1 they two were in the cave, and he said to his companion, "Have no fear, for Allah is with us": then Allah sent down His peace upon him, and strengthened him with forces which ye saw not, and humbled to the depths the word of the Unbelievers. But the word of Allah is exalted to the heights: for Allah is Exalted in might, Wise.—translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 9 (At-Tawba), verse 100:

Page 52: List of Sahaba R.A

“ The vanguard (of Islam)- the first of those who forsook (their homes) and of those who gave them aid, and (also) those who follow them in (all) good deeds,- well-pleased is Allah with them, as are they with Him: for them hath He prepared gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein for ever: that is the supreme felicity.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 9 (At-Tawba), verse 117 to 118:

“ Allah turned with favour to the Prophet, the Muhajirs, and the Ansar,- who followed him in a time of distress, after that the hearts of a part of them had nearly swerved (from duty); but He turned to them (also): for He is unto them Most Kind, Most Merciful.

(He turned in mercy also) to the three who were left behind; (they felt guilty) to such a degree that

the earth seemed constrained to them, for all its spaciousness, and their (very) souls seemed

straitened to them,- and they perceived that there is no fleeing from Allah (and no refuge) but to

Himself. Then He turned to them, that they might repent: for Allah is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.—

translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 24 (An-Noor), verse 11 to 20:

“ Those who brought forward the lie2 are a body among yourselves: think it not to be an evil to you; On the contrary it is good for you: to every man among them (will come the punishment) of the sin that he earned, and to him who took on himself the lead among them, will be a penalty grievous.

Why did not the believers - men and women - when ye heard of the affair,- put the best construction

on it in their own minds and say, "This (charge) is an obvious lie"?

Why did they not bring four witnesses to prove it? When they have not brought the witnesses, such

men, in the sight of Allah, (stand forth) themselves as liars!

Were it not for the grace and mercy of Allah on you, in this world and the Hereafter, a grievous

penalty would have seized you in that ye rushed glibly into this affair.

Behold, ye received it on your tongues, and said out of your mouths things of which ye had no

knowledge; and ye thought it to be a light matter, while it was most serious in the sight of Allah.

And why did ye not, when ye heard it, say? - "It is not right of us to speak of this: Glory to Allah! this is

a most serious slander!"

Allah doth admonish you, that ye may never repeat such (conduct), if ye are (true) Believers.

And Allah makes the Signs plain to you: for Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom. ”

Page 53: List of Sahaba R.A

Those who love (to see) scandal published broadcast among the Believers, will have a grievous

Penalty in this life and in the Hereafter: Allah knows, and ye know not.

Were it not for the grace and mercy of Allah on you, and that Allah is full of kindness and mercy, (ye

would be ruined indeed).— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Qur'an, chapter 33 (Al-Ahzab), verse 6:

“ The Prophet is closer to the Believers than their own selves, and his wives are their mothers. Blood-relations among each other have closer personal ties, in the Decree of Allah. Than (the Brotherhood of) Believers and Muhajirs: nevertheless do ye what is just to your closest friends: such is the writing in the Decree (of Allah).— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 33 (Al-Ahzab), verse 32 to 33:

“ O Consorts of the Prophet! Ye are not like any of the (other) women: if ye do fear (Allah), be not too complacent of speech, lest one in whose heart is a disease should be moved with desire: but speak ye a speech (that is) just.

And stay quietly in your houses, and make not a dazzling display, like that of the former Times of

Ignorance; and establish regular Prayer, and give regular Charity; and obey Allah and His Messenger.

And Allah only wishes to remove all abomination from you, ye members of the Family, and to make

you pure and spotless.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 33 (Al-Ahzab), verse 53:

“ O ye who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses,- until leave is given you,- for a meal, (and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation: but when ye are invited, enter; and when ye have taken your meal, disperse, without seeking familiar talk. Such (behaviour) annoys the Prophet: he is ashamed to dismiss you, but Allah is not ashamed (to tell you) the truth. And when ye ask (his ladies) for anything ye want, ask them from before a screen: that makes for greater purity for your hearts and for theirs. Nor is it right for you that ye should annoy Allah's Messenger, or that ye should marry his widows after him at any time. Truly such a thing is in Allah's sight an enormity.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 48 (Al-Fath), verse 18 to 21:

“ Allah's Good Pleasure was on the Believers when they swore Fealty to thee under the Tree: He knew what was in their hearts, and He sent down Tranquillity to them; and He rewarded them with a ”

Page 54: List of Sahaba R.A

speedy Victory;

And many gains will they acquire (besides): and Allah is Exalted in Power, Full of Wisdom.

Allah has promised you many gains that ye shall acquire, and He has given you these beforehand; and

He has restrained the hands of men from you; that it may be a Sign for the Believers, and that He may

guide you to a Straight Path;

And other gains (there are), which are not within your power, but which Allah has compassed: and

Allah has power over all things.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Qur'an, chapter 48 (Al-Fath), verse 29:

“ Muhammad is the messenger of Allah; and those who are with him are strong against Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other. Thou wilt see them bow and prostrate themselves (in prayer), seeking Grace from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure. On their faces are their marks, (being) the traces of their prostration. This is their similitude in theTaurat; and their similitude in the Gospel is: like a seed which sends forth its blade, then makes it strong; it then becomes thick, and it stands on its own stem, (filling) the sowers with wonder and delight. As a result, it fills the Unbelievers with rage at them. Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds forgiveness, and a great Reward.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 57 (Al-Hadid), verse 10:

“ And what cause have ye why ye should not spend in the cause of Allah?- For to Allah belongs the heritage of the heavens and the earth. Not equal among you are those who spent (freely) and fought, before the Victory, (with those who did so later). Those are higher in rank than those who spent (freely) and fought afterwards. But to all has Allah promised a goodly (reward). And Allah is well acquainted with all that ye do.— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

” The Qur'an, chapter 59 (Al-Hashr), verse 8 to 10:

“ (Some part is due) to the indigent Muhajirs, those who were expelled from their homes and their property, while seeking Grace from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure, and aiding Allah and His Messenger: such are indeed the sincere ones:-

But those who before them, had homes (in Medina) and had adopted the Faith,- show their affection

to such as came to them for refuge, and entertain no desire in their hearts for things given to the

(latter), but give them preference over themselves, even though poverty was their (own lot). And

those saved from the covetousness of their own souls,- they are the ones that achieve prosperity. ”

Page 55: List of Sahaba R.A

And those who came after them say: "Our Lord! Forgive us, and our brethren who came before us

into the Faith, and leave not, in our hearts, rancour (or sense of injury) against those who have

believed. Our Lord! Thou art indeed Full of Kindness, Most Merciful."— translated by Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Qur'an, chapter 60 (Al-Mumtahina), verse 1:

“ O ye who believe! Take not my enemies and yours as friends (or protectors),- offering them (your) love, even though they have rejected the Truth that has come to you, and have (on the contrary) driven out the Prophet and yourselves (from your homes), (simply) because ye believe in Allah your Lord! If ye have come out to strive in My Way and to seek My Good Pleasure, (take them not as friends), holding secret converse of love (and friendship) with them: for I know full well all that ye conceal and all that ye reveal. And any of you that does this has strayed from the Straight Path.— translatedby error
