Summary

Shaykh Yasir Qadhi discusses an event that took place in the life of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ even before he was made a Nabi. The story is about a merchant who came from the tribe of Zabeed from Yemen. He had merchandise with him to sell in the time of Hajj and wanted to sell this.He tries to sell it but fails due to the double standards and the hypocrisy of the Quraysh for stalling him. This message spread across the town of Makkah until it reached Abdullah ibn Judan who convened the seniors of Quraysh and implored them to stop trampling the rights of innocents. In this gathering, there was a young man who had maturity and sensibility of leadership and he was none other than Muhammad ﷺ. It was declared that a treaty which had a foundation of equality and fairness would be signed upon.this treaty is called as Hilf Al Mutayyibeen or Hilf Ul Fudool. Why were these names given to this treaty? Do listen intently.
