1
00:02:31,759 --> 00:02:34,759
Yes, I am now a Muslim,

2
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,960
but I continue to struggle against what I used to love over many, many years.

3
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,920
What has passed of my life is longer than what remains.

4
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,520
I look around me in Makkah...

5
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:55,079
and I see shadows of the past days coming out at me from every corner.

6
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,000
I see life as it used to be,

7
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,640
and I see the people: Utbah Ibn Rabeeah, Abu Al-Hakam,

8
00:03:05,759 --> 00:03:07,159
Al-Waleed Ibn Al-Mugheerah,

9
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,439
Umayyah Ibn Khalaf, Al-Aas Ibn Wail, Abu Talib.

10
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:15,920
I see Umar Ibn Al-Khattab, Quraysh's ambassador, champion and defender.

11
00:03:16,039 --> 00:03:19,439
I see Bilal carrying buckets of water and lighting the fire for his master.

12
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,719
I see Khalid Ibn al-Waleed, Quraysh's military commander,

13
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:28,080
and Amr Abn Al-Aas, its mastermind. I see myself

14
00:03:28,199 --> 00:03:35,560
Abu Sufyan Sakhr Ibn Harb Ibn Umayyah Ibn Abd Shams Ibn Abd Manaaf...

15
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,760
assuming the overall leadership of Quraysh.

16
00:03:50,919 --> 00:03:55,479
Where have those days of old gone?

17
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,759
Then I see the present when everything has changed.

18
00:04:06,719 --> 00:04:11,319
It is a totally different epoch now.

19
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,439
Hence, I wonder:

20
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:19,920
should I reject what I see around me...

21
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,360
or should I reject myself?

22
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,239
And you!

23
00:04:44,519 --> 00:04:46,959
Won't you say something?

24
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,120
Won't you give me some advice?

25
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:02,639
You did not protect me. Now defend yourselves against me.

26
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,240
Utbah Ibn Rabeeah, where have you gone?

27
00:05:37,519 --> 00:05:41,719
If I do not cry for your revenge today,

28
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,359
should I now cry for you being in the fire?

29
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,119
Do you think that now that God has given His messenger his hometown,

30
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,400
- he will live here? - Do not worry, people of the Ansar.

31
00:06:01,519 --> 00:06:05,560
Other people from the Ansar said the same as you have just said,

32
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,840
and the Prophet was informed of it. He said:

33
00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:11,799
''By no means, my people of the Ansar.

34
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:16,640
My life is with you and my death is with you.''

35
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,320
- My brother, Abu Hudhaifah! - How are you, sister?

36
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,439
- I have given my pledge, Abu Hudhaifah. - I know.

37
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,000
I pray to God to make you firm in your belief in Islam

38
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,360
and to purge your heart of the traces of jahiliyyah.

39
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,200
Both Abu Sufyan and myself need this prayer.

40
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,720
This is my brother, Salim. Do you remember him?

41
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,040
How could I forget him when you have made him your son?

42
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,880
God has abrogated that. He says: "Call them by their fathers names".

43
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,839
He is my brother in Islam. I am his ally and he is mine, and God is our master.

44
00:07:22,959 --> 00:07:24,919
Only death will separate us.

45
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,720
Or we are together as martyrs for God's cause.

46
00:07:27,839 --> 00:07:30,719
Salim is a good scholar of the Qur'an.

47
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,160
- Who is it? - Open the door, father?

48
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:50,959
Abu Jandal!

49
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,240
Is that how a father meets his son after such a long absence?

50
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:17,959
How will I meet one of Muhammad's companions...

51
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,960
after what I had done? Now I am wanted.

52
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,639
Come with us, father, to meet God's messenger.

53
00:08:41,759 --> 00:08:47,159
What? You will take me to him to kill me after what I have done?

54
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,440
God's messenger has declared safety for you. You have nothing to fear.

55
00:08:52,039 --> 00:08:56,679
Has he really? You have taken from him a safety order for me?

56
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,680
Has Abdullah taken from him a safety order for me?

57
00:10:25,759 --> 00:10:30,960
Do not worry, father. God's messenger (PBUH)...

58
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,040
spoke to his companion when he gave a declaration of safety in your favour.

59
00:10:33,159 --> 00:10:38,439
He said ''whoever meets Suhail Ibn Amr should not look hard at him.

60
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,000
By God, Suhail is a man of wisdom and integrity.

61
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,200
A person like Suhail cannot but appreciate Islam.

62
00:10:55,399 --> 00:10:57,919
How much?

63
00:11:28,159 --> 00:11:32,199
Safwan; Abu Wahb; Wait a minute.

64
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,680
- Safwan! - Go away from me.

65
00:11:36,799 --> 00:11:38,719
Have you come to take me and hand me over to your friend?

66
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:43,840
I have come to you from the kindest, most forbearing and most generous of people.

67
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,160
His glory is your glory and his kingdom is your kingdom.

68
00:11:49,159 --> 00:11:51,559
I have requested him to grant your safety and he has declared it.

69
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,519
Come back with me to meet him, may God guide you aright.

70
00:11:53,639 --> 00:11:56,600
How can I tell that what you are saying is true? You may be trying to deceive me.

71
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,000
You did it before.

72
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,320
This is the Prophet's turban which he was wearing when he entered Makkah.

73
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,000
He gave it to me as a mark of my sincerity.

74
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,399
Do not lead yourself to ruin.

75
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,000
I think what has brought you here is that you fear that the Prophet...

76
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,840
will kill you in revenge for his uncle.

77
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,560
Leave me alone.

78
00:13:08,879 --> 00:13:13,879
Where can you flee? Some men who fled like you have come back.

79
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,919
They went to God's messenger seeking safety. He granted them their safety

80
00:13:17,039 --> 00:13:19,240
and accepted them as Muslims.

81
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,879
I think this is your only option.

82
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,759
How can I be like them? I have killed Hamzah, Muhammad's own uncle.

83
00:13:26,879 --> 00:13:29,439
I have no family or clan to protect me.

84
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,479
God's messenger has abrogated all that is related to the pride of jahiliyyah,

85
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,159
and the glory of ancestry.

86
00:13:34,759 --> 00:13:38,360
That you have killed Hamzah, well, remember that he is a Prophet

87
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:43,879
who seeks neither revenge nor retribution. He only aims to provide guidance for people.

88
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:49,080
He has pardoned Hind Bint Utbah, despite what she did to his uncle.

89
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,640
Go to him before it is too late.

90
00:13:51,759 --> 00:13:56,159
I have given you sincere advice, and it is after all up to you.

91
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,680
By God, this is Wahshi who killed Hamzah.

92
00:14:44,799 --> 00:14:46,679
You, enemy of God, where will you go?

93
00:14:46,799 --> 00:14:50,399
Come with us to God's messenger to pass against you the judgement you deserve.

94
00:14:50,519 --> 00:14:56,720
He is under my care, may God bless you all. I will take him to God's messenger.

95
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,560
Will you not welcome your cousin, Ikrimah?

96
00:15:13,039 --> 00:15:16,079
You are most welcome, Abu Sulaiman.

97
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,200
Welcome to the immigrant rider,

98
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,800
as God's messenger said when he saw you approaching him.

99
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,560
Had he said the 'fleeing rider', he would have stated the truth.

100
00:15:25,679 --> 00:15:30,679
God's messenger is not one to rebuke or humiliate anyone.

101
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:33,079
You have seen how pleased he was to see you embracing Islam.

102
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,440
Welcome to God's sword.

103
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,920
- Is that how they call you now - I pray to God to deserve this title.

104
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,360
- Will this bondage never end? - Haven't you become a Muslim?

105
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,399
Hasn't God's messenger pardoned you for what you had done?

106
00:15:57,519 --> 00:16:00,559
Yes, but he then asked me to describe to him how I killed Hamzah.

107
00:16:00,679 --> 00:16:03,559
Did you not see how his face changed? He then told me

108
00:16:03,679 --> 00:16:07,199
to keep my face away from him if I can.

109
00:16:08,679 --> 00:16:13,799
That is all over now. We are all brothers in Islam. Do not look to the past.

110
00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:16,559
Look only to what you will do in the rest of your life.

111
00:16:17,759 --> 00:16:21,720
I need to look back so as to know how hard I should work

112
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,680
in order to compensate for what I have missed.

113
00:16:23,799 --> 00:16:25,679
Then you are a true Muslim.

114
00:16:25,799 --> 00:16:29,439
You have to thank Umm Hakeem for seeking your safety from God's messenger.

115
00:16:29,559 --> 00:16:31,959
Otherwise, you would have perished.

116
00:16:38,799 --> 00:16:41,839
Perhaps I have known the truth for some time.

117
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,480
Two things stopped me from acting on that: pride and honouring my father.

118
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,279
I felt that if I were to become a Muslim I would testify that he was Abu Jahl.

119
00:16:48,399 --> 00:16:52,039
I had the same feeling with regard to my father, Al-Mugheerah,

120
00:16:52,159 --> 00:16:54,759
and the Qur'anic verses speaking about him. Yet maintaining our stand

121
00:16:54,879 --> 00:16:57,480
in support of falsehood does not save our fathers from the fire.

122
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,560
It only puts us with them when all people are on their own.

123
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:03,239
I killed Hamzah to win my freedom.

124
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,599
Yet Quraysh continued ever since to look at me as a slave.

125
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,880
I am not allowed to sit with them, share an opinion with them,

126
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:16,240
or eat with them in the same plate. I would even hear them referring to me

127
00:17:17,519 --> 00:17:20,680
as Jubair Ibn Mut im's slave.

128
00:17:21,079 --> 00:17:26,119
When they and I have embraced Islam, I hear them referring to me

129
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,359
as Hamzah's killer.

130
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:34,160
One fetter is broken only to be replaced by another. Until when? Until when?

131
00:17:34,279 --> 00:17:39,639
Am I to remain an outcast for the rest of time, just like a camel with scabies,

132
00:17:39,759 --> 00:17:41,680
or a sheep isolated from its flock?

133
00:17:41,799 --> 00:17:44,960
When will I be just one among ordinary people?

134
00:17:53,759 --> 00:17:59,400
What an accursed spear you are!

135
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,319
You brought me to this end.

136
00:18:04,079 --> 00:18:07,759
Can you now release me of it?

137
00:18:25,519 --> 00:18:32,119
As you consider our meeting here now, with all of you being Muslims,

138
00:18:32,559 --> 00:18:36,599
you may remember your previous meeting here when you were idolaters.

139
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,600
Then you split, with some embracing Islam and some rejecting it.

140
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,640
You then flocked to Islam, one after the other, some early and some late,

141
00:18:44,759 --> 00:18:48,680
until now that you are together again, under the banner of the religion of the truth.

142
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,720
You should thank God for having guided you.

143
00:18:51,839 --> 00:18:54,480
The early ones cannot be the same as the latecomers, Umar.

144
00:18:54,599 --> 00:18:59,159
Do not grieve for the past except to do better in your coming days.

145
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:06,039
Many a person may do something good and be pleased with himself,

146
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,880
only to go the wrong track afterwards, and the end result would be his ruin.

147
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,119
On the other hand, a person may commit something evil, then he regrets it

148
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:20,559
and turns to God in repentance, keen to do well in future. He ends up a winner.

149
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:26,000
You have given us hope, Umar. How good you all are as an advance party!

150
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:31,759
We now know that you were fighting us for your and our sake,

151
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,520
but we fought you only for our own interest.

152
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,000
All praise be to God that he gave you victory over us when we were idolaters.

153
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:43,079
That is a victory for us now that we are Muslims.

154
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,720
This matter of Islam is coming close to perfection.

155
00:19:46,839 --> 00:19:51,439
All Arabs are close to accepting it, as they still follow Quraysh.

156
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,360
What makes you cry, Umar, when things are coming perfectly well for Islam,

157
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,079
as Salim has rightly stated?

158
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:13,200
I only feared that when things seem perfect,

159
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,920
they soon start to take a downward trend.

160
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,440
It will be a short illness, by God's will.

161
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,719
God's messenger fell ill in the past and recovered.

162
00:21:07,839 --> 00:21:10,399
Why are you exceedingly distressed?

163
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,480
The religion is complete now, as God has said:

164
00:21:14,599 --> 00:21:17,159
"This day I have perfected your religion for you and have bestowed on you

165
00:21:17,279 --> 00:21:22,879
the full measure of My blessings and have chosen Islam as a religion for you."

166
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,640
Quraysh has accepted Islam,

167
00:21:27,559 --> 00:21:30,559
then Taif accepted it after the Battle of Hunain.

168
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,399
Then we had all those delegations from the Arabian tribes, coming from all corners,

169
00:21:33,519 --> 00:21:36,160
to pledge loyalty to Islam.

170
00:21:36,279 --> 00:21:42,200
God revealed the surah that says: "When God's help and victory come,

171
00:21:42,319 --> 00:21:46,399
and you see people embracing God's religion in large numbers,

172
00:21:46,519 --> 00:21:49,839
then extol your Lord's limitless glory, and praise Him, and seek His forgiveness.

173
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,960
He is the One who accepts repentance."

174
00:21:53,799 --> 00:22:00,200
When the religion is complete, the message is perfected and revelations cease,

175
00:22:00,319 --> 00:22:05,399
then it is as though the Prophet is given notice that his time is up.

176
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:11,279
On top of all this comes what his servant, Abu Muwaihibah,

177
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,000
told me of what he said at Al-Baqee' graveyard.

178
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:21,039
You remember his speech during his pilgrimage:

179
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,000
"People, listen to me as I explain to you,

180
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:31,759
for I do not know whether I will ever meet you again in this place.

181
00:22:32,079 --> 00:22:38,279
Know, then, that your blood, property and honour are forbidden you

182
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:43,360
till you meet your Lord in the same way as the sanctity of this day of yours,

183
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,480
in this month of yours, in this city of yours.

184
00:22:47,599 --> 00:22:53,439
You will certainly meet your Lord and He will certainly question you about what you do.

185
00:22:53,559 --> 00:22:55,639
I have delivered my message.

186
00:22:55,759 --> 00:22:58,240
He who holds something belonging to another for safekeeping

187
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,439
must give it back to the person to whom it belongs.

188
00:23:01,559 --> 00:23:05,119
All usury transactions are hereby abrogated.

189
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:10,920
You may claim only your capital, neither inflicting nor suffering any injustice.

190
00:23:11,039 --> 00:23:19,039
People, Satan has given up any hope of being worshipped in this land of yours.

191
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:26,360
He is satisfied, however, to be obeyed in matters which you consider trivial.

192
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,440
Guard yourselves against him, lest he corrupts your faith.

193
00:23:29,559 --> 00:23:35,839
I've left with you what should keep you safe from going astray should you hold fast to it

194
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:41,600
It is something clear and simple: God's Book and the Sunnah of His Prophet.

195
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:48,120
People!

196
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,680
Every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim,

197
00:23:53,079 --> 00:23:56,000
and all believers are brothers.

198
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,439
It is illegal for anyone to take the property of his brother

199
00:23:58,559 --> 00:24:01,720
unless it is given without any coercion.

200
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:08,040
Do not be unjust to yourselves. Have I delivered my message?

201
00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:18,359
Lord, be my witness.

202
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,279
Lord, be my witness.

203
00:24:45,039 --> 00:24:52,359
God is supreme; God is supreme.

204
00:24:54,920 --> 00:25:02,480
God is supreme; God is supreme.

205
00:25:04,039 --> 00:25:09,440
I bear witness that there is no deity other than God.

206
00:25:10,559 --> 00:25:16,240
I bear witness that there is no deity other than God.

207
00:25:18,039 --> 00:25:23,319
I bear witness that Muhammad is God's messenger.

208
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,520
I bear witness that Muhammad is God's messenger.

209
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,320
- Peace be with you - Peace be with you

210
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,080
Did you see the Prophet today?

211
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,359
How did you find him?

212
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,559
Pain has increased and he is severely ill.

213
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:14,839
Bilal, find out what the matter is. God's messenger has been late.

214
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:32,000
Why is God's messenger late coming out to lead the prayers?

215
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:37,119
God only knows, sister. May God give him full recovery.

216
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:51,120
God's messenger is in much pain. He says: let someone lead the prayer.

217
00:27:01,039 --> 00:27:04,319
Umar, come here and lead the prayer.

218
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,000
God is supreme; God is supreme.

219
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,839
What have you done to me, Bilal?

220
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,120
By God when you told me to lead the prayer I only thought that God's messenger

221
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,200
has ordered you to do so. Otherwise, I would not have led the prayer.

222
00:27:34,319 --> 00:27:37,200
God's messenger did not give me any such order.

223
00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:42,720
When I did not see Abu Bakr, I thought that of all present, you were the best to lead.

224
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,960
What delayed you, Abu Bakr?

225
00:28:18,079 --> 00:28:21,799
Your absence has placed on me a burden as heavy as Mount Uhud.

226
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:27,600
I led the Asr prayer, thinking that God's messenger has ordered that.

227
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:34,720
When the Prophet heard me starting, he disapproved. He sent a message saying:

228
00:28:34,839 --> 00:28:40,839
No, no, no. God does not approve.

229
00:28:41,519 --> 00:28:43,639
Let Abu Bakr lead the prayer.

230
00:28:48,559 --> 00:28:54,559
Has his illness become so severe that someone else had to lead the prayer?

231
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,160
All power operates by God's will.

232
00:28:57,279 --> 00:29:01,119
Come on. It is nearly time for Maghrib prayer.

233
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:05,120
Lead the prayer in obedience of the order of God's messenger.

234
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:14,640
Abu Bakr...

235
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:21,079
- Where are you going now? - To my home at Al-Sunh.

236
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,240
- Do you think I can also go to my home? - Yes.

237
00:29:24,359 --> 00:29:27,839
Haven't you seen that God's messenger is now well, as we all love to see him

238
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:32,000
He came out and prayed with us, then admonished us.

239
00:30:08,079 --> 00:30:11,519
Abu Al-Hasan, how did you find God's messenger?

240
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:18,360
- All praise be to God. He is recovering. - All praise be to God.

241
00:30:19,759 --> 00:30:25,279
I swear by God I have seen death in God's messenger's face,

242
00:30:25,519 --> 00:30:29,240
just as I could recognize it in the faces of Abd Al-Muttalib's descendants,

243
00:30:30,519 --> 00:30:33,599
even though he came out and admonished the people.

244
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:38,440
I think that before the day is out...

245
00:30:41,319 --> 00:30:44,919
If you have something in mind you want to speak to him about,

246
00:30:45,039 --> 00:30:48,079
go now and speak to him.

247
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,759
God's messenger was given a choice and he chose to be with God in heaven.

248
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,880
God's messenger has passed away.

249
00:31:53,119 --> 00:31:55,000
Umar, God's messenger has passed away.

250
00:31:55,119 --> 00:31:58,799
May your mothers lose you all! What are you saying?

251
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:05,600
May God cut the tongues of those claiming that God's messenger has died. No...

252
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:10,120
Yes, Umar. The news came from Aishah's home.

253
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:11,759
I said: No.

254
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,640
God's messenger has not died. If anything, he has gone to his Lord

255
00:32:15,759 --> 00:32:20,519
as did Moses when he was absent from his people for forty nights.

256
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,480
He returned to them after some of them claimed that he had died.

257
00:32:23,599 --> 00:32:27,839
God's messenger is certain to come back like Moses did,

258
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,360
and he will cut the hands and feet of those

259
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,440
who claim that God's messenger has died.

260
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:48,880
You have now experienced the one death that God has ordained that you shall have.

261
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:53,200
You shall not experience another death.

262
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:13,240
Don't you understand what I am saying? Should anyone claim

263
00:33:13,359 --> 00:33:15,959
that God's messenger has died, I will strike him with this sword of mine.

264
00:33:16,079 --> 00:33:18,919
Umar! Hold it and listen.

265
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:24,920
Have you heard what these people are saying. They have become hypocrites.

266
00:33:25,039 --> 00:33:27,759
Listen to me, all of you.

267
00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:32,759
All praise be to God who has power over all His creatures.

268
00:33:33,519 --> 00:33:40,720
Now, whoever worships Muhammad should know that Muhammad has died.

269
00:33:41,039 --> 00:33:47,000
But he who worships God knows that God is eternal and does not die.

270
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:52,080
I seek shelter with God against Satan, the accursed.

271
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:57,360
Muhammad is only a messenger: all messengers have passed away before him.

272
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:02,519
If, then, he dies or is slain, will you turn about on your heels?

273
00:34:04,039 --> 00:34:09,559
He that turns about on his heels will not harm God in any way.

274
00:34:09,679 --> 00:34:12,359
God will reward those who are grateful to Him.

275
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,160
Umar, you need to attend to people's affairs. Let not the tragedy distract you

276
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:25,680
from ensuring that the Muslims' affairs are set right.

277
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:27,440
Well, say what you have.

278
00:35:27,559 --> 00:35:30,759
The Ansar and their leaders are meeting at the meeting place of Bani Sa'idah

279
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:35,039
considering whom to appoint as successor to the Prophet.

280
00:35:35,159 --> 00:35:37,839
I think that they have agreed to choose Saad Ibn Ubadah.

281
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:42,880
Find someone to bring Abu Bakr out of Aishah's home right now.

282
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,440
Well, Umar, don't you see that I am busy preparing God's messenger's body for burial

283
00:36:03,559 --> 00:36:07,799
It is very serious, Abu Bakr. By God, had I been told now that my son has died,

284
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,320
it would not distract me from the tragedy of losing God's messenger.

285
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:14,599
Yet, I have awoken from my initial shock. If the day is over

286
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:20,480
& the Muslims have not settled the question of who to succeed God's messenger,

287
00:36:20,599 --> 00:36:24,119
their unity will be undermined.

288
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,279
Then our tragedy of undermining Islam will be greater than the tragedy

289
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:32,519
of losing God's messenger. Islam comes first.

290
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,480
Warm welcome to our brothers, the Muhajireen.

291
00:36:44,519 --> 00:36:46,679
- Who is this? - Saad Ibn Ubadah

292
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,120
- What is wrong with him? - He is unwell.

293
00:36:52,679 --> 00:36:56,199
What is your meeting about, Ansari brothers

294
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:02,199
We are the supporters of God's cause and the defenders of Islam.

295
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:06,519
We have given our contribution to the cause of Islam.

296
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:12,840
You have become one community with us, and a group of our people.

297
00:37:13,599 --> 00:37:17,559
We are the original people of this city and its overwhelming majority.

298
00:37:17,679 --> 00:37:22,719
Hence, the ruler should come from among us so that people will accept him.

299
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:28,559
This is our chief, Saad Ibn Ubadah, whom we have agreed to be the ruler.

300
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,760
Hold it, Umar.

301
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,480
People of the Ansar,

302
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:43,159
you have said your word and it is a true word that we accept in full.

303
00:37:43,599 --> 00:37:49,000
Whatever good you said about yourselves is certainly true and well deserved.

304
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:54,000
You are well aware that when God handed Makkah over to His messenger

305
00:37:54,199 --> 00:37:58,439
& you expressed your fear that the Prophet would choose to settle with his people there,

306
00:37:58,559 --> 00:38:05,199
he said: 'Far from it. Life is with you and death is with you.'

307
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,400
All praise be to God!

308
00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:11,960
It is God who has favoured us all by guiding us to Islam.

309
00:38:12,079 --> 00:38:14,719
He will reward every one with the perfect reward.

310
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:19,000
But we should consider the welfare of the Muslims.

311
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:26,920
The Arabs will not accept leadership unless it comes from Quraysh,

312
00:38:27,039 --> 00:38:29,599
as they command the best ancestry.

313
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,199
The Arabs will only accept a ruler chosen from among them.

314
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:41,840
I am happy to offer you one of these two men. Pledge your loyalty to either of them.

315
00:38:42,639 --> 00:38:46,759
I have the best solution.

316
00:38:47,199 --> 00:38:52,199
We provide one leader and you, the Quraysh people, provide one.

317
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,960
This is a recipe for weakness of the Muslims.

318
00:38:57,079 --> 00:39:04,039
Once there are two leaders, there will be disagreement and division.

319
00:39:04,199 --> 00:39:07,399
People will support one or the other.

320
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:13,199
But there should be one leader

321
00:39:13,639 --> 00:39:17,480
and we all will be his assistants and counsellors.

322
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:23,360
People of the Ansar: you were the first to give support.

323
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,000
Do not be the first to change things.

324
00:39:26,119 --> 00:39:30,440
People of the Ansar! People of the Ansar!

325
00:39:30,559 --> 00:39:34,960
If we have a good record of striving against the idolaters

326
00:39:35,079 --> 00:39:40,199
and in the service of Islam, we only did that in the hope that we win God's pleasure

327
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,280
by obeying His messenger.

328
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,920
We must not boast about this before other people.

329
00:39:45,039 --> 00:39:49,199
Nor should we seek any worldly returns for what we did.

330
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:54,200
However, Muhammad belonged to Quraysh

331
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,320
and his own people have a stronger claim to him.

332
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:03,680
I for one shall never oppose them. I call on you to fear God

333
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,640
and not to be in dispute with them.

334
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,680
Your hand, Umar, and we will pledge loyalty to you.

335
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,400
No, never. By Him who sent Muhammad with the message of the truth,

336
00:40:11,519 --> 00:40:16,320
I prefer to have my head chopped off, provided it is not in punishment for a sin,

337
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:20,159
than to lead a community that includes Abu Bakr.

338
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,000
- You are stronger than me. - If I have any strength,

339
00:40:23,119 --> 00:40:25,039
it is at your service, and you are the better person.

340
00:40:25,159 --> 00:40:31,960
After God's messenger, no one should ever be ahead of you.

341
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:36,720
You are the man who was alone with the Prophet when he was hiding in the cave.

342
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:41,480
When the Prophet was ill, he appointed you to lead the prayer.

343
00:40:41,599 --> 00:40:44,679
People of the Ansar!

344
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:51,560
Aren't you all aware that God's messenger appointed Abu Bakr to lead the prayer?

345
00:40:51,679 --> 00:40:55,559
Who of you is happy to take a position ahead of Abu Bakr?

346
00:40:59,960 --> 00:41:04,639
- We will never lead Abu Bakr. - That's right; we will never.

347
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,519
Your hand, Abu Bakr.

348
00:41:59,519 --> 00:42:02,840
You must have had a hard struggle today, father.

349
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,920
God has spared us great strife.

350
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:24,920
By God, we were never tested in any situation with God's messenger

351
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,800
as we have been tested today.

352
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:34,840
We had the tragedy of the Prophet's death

353
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,960
and our fear that the bond between Muslims would be severed after his death.

354
23:35:59,960 --> 23:36:09,960
