Summary

In the final part on the lectures pertaining to the three Fitan in the time of Abdullah Ibn Zubayr RA, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi touches base on the incidents that led to the tragic death of Ibn Zubayr RA. Abdul Malik ibn Marwan was the torch and the reason for a firm standing in the civilization of Islam or the Umayyad dynasty. Many details are explicitly explained on Hajjaj Ibn Yusuf (known as the terminator - for his way of dealing with his enemies being harsh, ruthless and immensely cruel) and the likes of him, his atrocities towards the people of Mecca and his ultimate cruelty exhibited in the death of Abdullah Ibn Zubayr RA. We also get acquainted with the final heart wrenching and emotional exchange of dialogues between Ibn Zubayr and his mother Asma Bint Abi BAkr RA in his final moments just before setting out to fight against Hajjaj and be eventually martyred. It is just unimaginable and unfathomable as to how a mother displays such strength of Iman and valour and bravery that she is able to tell him to get martyred rather than dying a humiliating and wasteful death. She said to her son Ibn Zubayr RA - “There is nothing after death that man should be afraid of. Skinning does not cause any pain to the slaughtered sheep.” Abdullah Ibn Umar RA said about Abdullah Ibn Zubayr that the latter was nicknamed Sawwam and Qawwam. He was also the embodiment of courage and heroism. Do listen with utmost sincerity in order to fathom the greatness of these sahabas who walked the face of this earth.

1:00.1	hejra his son Mauiawia and Yazid, was elected or basically nominated by his father, but
1:07.9	Moawia was never a serious candidate. And at the death of Yazid, most likely even in that 40 days of Moawi
