Allah Rhaha Rilah Rilah R. al-Alaibil al-A-Main

U.S.

O'S.

So we are winding down in sha Allah. I hope to finish up the rest of the Sahawa that we will be doing within four or five weeks and then after the break we will start off with the Omaha and what we need, the mothers of the believers,

in sha ala and then that will take us basically in sha ala to the end in sha alla the finale, in sha ala

I'm always having issues every week which Sahabi to do. Why? Because now we're getting to the Sahaba who don't have detail biographies.

And if we wanted to spend the next five ten years doing one

paragraph of some of the Sah how we could do that because now we're coming to

so many of the Sahaba that are not we only have tidbits about them and there's useful information as well about them.

So what I've decided to do is really to choose those that we have some more information about or some stories that are very, very interesting about them.

And today, in sha alah, I wanted to do a Sahabi who has a lot of interesting tidbits and anecdotes and he is one of the enemies of early Islam

and then he becomes one of the Sahaba and there are a few of them who basically I call them the noble enemies.

There are a few of the Sahib I call them the noble enemies that at one point in their lives

they were noble enemies, i.e. even though they opposed Islam, the way that they opposed it, by and large,

they did not stoop to the level of Abu Jahal, they did not stoop to the level of al-Wahida bin Uchba, and others of their character. They opposed the Prophet Sala is

Sala is from some level of sincerity, not based on arrogance.

And this is another difference that Abu Jahal for example he knew Islam

was true at some level and yet he opposed it but by and large there was a group who they

didn't really believe that Islam was true.

They believed that their religion was true.

And they oppose the prophet of some, quote unquote, sincerely.
