Summary

Shaykh Yasir Qadhi continues to divulge details on the different delegations that were sent as part of their prerogative to make as many as possible people convert to Islam. A few listed in this lecture are as follows: Wa'il ibn Hujr - He is from the town of Hadramaut, Yemen Delegation of Taif - Urwah ibn Mas'ud, who was the leader of the Taqif tribe in Taif accepted Islam. The conversion of the pagans of Taqif was a long and arduous process as their belief in idols was unparalleled. How did the impossible then become possible? Listen intently to discover interesting facts. An interesting issue that happened in Taif is relating to the statement made by the Prophet ﷺ to the people of Taif wherein he told them initially that they need not pay Zakat and do Jihad, only to withdraw the statement and reverse his statement. What made him do this? He believed that the light of Iman would finally make a foray into their hearts even though they were opposing now. The leader has the right to accept aforesaid conditions for new Muslims for a short duration of time but he can at any point in time reverse his decision in order to implement the right rules of Islam.

0:26.9	Himmel al-Lilah Rabil al-A-Lamin was Sala.

0:37.2	and when did it last until from what year to what year?
0:45.7	So Hijura 5 through 9 we can say is when all of the delegations arrived.
0:50.1	So why do we call the year of delegations only the ninth year then?
0:54.0	When the delegations came from the fifth to the ninth, most of them came in the ninth year of the
1:00.3	Hijura. So that is why the ninth year of the Hijera is called the year of delegations.
1:04.0	And as I said for today's topic, last week's,
1:08.0	maybe even next two weeks, I don't know how many incidents I'm going to do myself
1:12.0	because again, this is the only time to talk
1:15.3	about them. We skipped over a lot of the delegations in the fifth, sixth, seventh year because
1:18.4	we were eager to talk about Khandak and Hudabia and all of these are the big
1:22.2	juicy things.
1:23.2	So we didn't talk about the minor delegations
1:26.5	and frankly we don't even know the exact date
1:28.6	and month of most of them.
1:30.3	So this is where even Ibn Ibn
1:31.6	Abbanaq and others, they actually mentioned a lot of delegations that even came in the seventh year,
1:36.7	but they just put them here because it's just convenient because this is when the delegations came.
1:41.8	So we too have to go a little bit back and forth chronologically.
