Summary

Shaykh Yasir Qadhi divulges details on the happenings of the 9th year of Hijrah which is also called the ‘ Year of Delegations'. It is not as if delegations did not happen prior to this, but this year was special as the number had reached large numbers. What comprises a delegation? It is when a tribe sends a representative to negotiate with the Prophet ﷺ on their eagerness to embrace Islam or not. There are 15 delegations of interest and are discussed elaborately. Some of the delegations discussed in this lecture are: Abdul Qais - the Christian tribe who lived close to modern day Bahrain. Banu Sa'd ibn Bakr the tribe of Haleema RA. Banu Amr ibn Sa'sa - the tribe that was responsible for the well of Bir Maoona Tamim ad Dari - a christian from a northern tribe. There is also an interesting miracle that transpired when the tribe of Muzayana came to embrace Islam and the Prophet ﷺ asked Umar RA to refill their food supplies. What was this miracle? Listen intently as Shaykh Yasir answers.
