Mere Deen Islam Ki Baatein

​ When Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) built the Kaaba together with Hazrat Ismail (AS), through his preaching, the tribes of Jurhum and Qatura accepted the Deen-e-Ibrahimi and accepted Allah as the One God. After Hazrat Ibrahim (AS), due to the influence of Hazrat Ismail (AS), those who later settled in Makkah also continued to accept Deen-e-Hanif, i.e., the religion of Hazrat Ibrahim (AS). At that time, all the tribes of Makkah, including Aal-e-Ismail, believed in the worship of only One God, and the sanctity of the Kaaba was fully maintained. But after the death of Hazrat Ismail (AS), when no Prophet was sent to guide the people of Makkah, gradually shirk and misguidance started spreading among them. When the tribes of Ayad and Banu Khuza'ah attacked Makkah one after another, many tribes of Banu Ismail had to leave Makkah. At that time, they also took a stone from the Kaaba with them for the sake of blessing. Because of its association with the Kaaba, they started respecting it a lot. The e...

Seerat-un-Nabi ﷺ (Episode 5) *Al-Ma'rifat Manzil* The Quraysh did not have the power to fight such a huge army and save the Kaaba. So Hazrat Abdul Muttalib told them to take their children and cattle and move into the mountains, so that a massacre could be avoided. Then, along with some chiefs of the Quraysh, he went to the Holy Kaaba and expressed his helplessness before Allah and prayed to Him to protect His own House Himself. The historians have quoted the prayer verses of Hazrat Abdul Muttalib as follows: "O Allah! A servant protects his house, so You protect Your House too,"_ "Let not tomorrow their cross and their planning overcome Your planning,"_ "Today, help Your own people against the people of the cross," “O my Lord! Besides You, I have no hope against them," "O my Lord! Protect Your Haram from them," After making these supplications, Hazrat Abdul Muttalib also went with the chiefs of Quraysh to the mountains where the rest of...

Seerat-un-Nabi ﷺ  Episode No. 4 --- Seerat-un-Nabi ﷺ  > Have you not seen how your Lord dealt with the People of the Elephant? Did He not make their plot go astray? Allah sent upon them flocks of birds (Ababeel) which threw pebbles at them. Thus Allah made them like eaten straw. Surah Al-Feel (1-5) The incident of Ashab-ul-Feel happened in 571 AD - the year of the blessed birth of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The Abyssinian Christian ruler of Yemen, Abraha bin Ashram, marched towards Makkah with 60,000 soldiers and 13 elephants to demolish the Kaaba. *Who was Abraha?* He was a commander sent by the King of Abyssinia to avenge the oppression of Christians by the Jewish ruler Yusuf Zu Nuwas. He later became the independent King of Yemen. His plan was: 1. To spread Christianity in Arabia 2. To take control of Arab trade For this, he built a grand church in Sana'a called *"Al-Qullais" (Ecclesia)* and announced: _"I will not stop until I divert the Hajj of Arabs from Kaaba to E...

  *Seerat-un-Nabi (Peace Be Upon Him)* *(Part No. 3)* Hazrat Hashim had established trade and diplomatic relations with the Caesar of Rome. So, during a journey to Syria in this connection, he married a noble woman of Banu Najjar, Salma, but unfortunately during that same journey Hazrat Hashim passed away. After his death, a son was born to him who was named "Shaiba" but since Shaiba was raised and brought up by his uncle Muttalib bin Abd Manaf, Shaiba came to be called Abdul-Muttalib (the slave of Muttalib) and then history always remembered him by that same name. Hazrat Abdul-Muttalib was extremely handsome, beautiful, dignified and possessed a magnificent personality. Allah blessed him with immense honor and he became the most important chief of the Quraish of Makkah. For a long time, he had only one son among his children, whose name was Haris. Hazrat Abdul-Muttalib had a great desire to have many children, so he made a vow that if Allah granted him ten sons and they all ...

Seerat-un-Nabi (SAW) In that era, a famous personality of Arabia was named Qusai bin Kilab. According to one narration, the title of Qusai bin Kilab was Quraish, due to which his progeny came to be called Quraishi, while according to another narration, six generations before Qusai bin Kilab, among the Bani Ismail there was an elder named "Fihr bin Malik" whose title was Quraish. Qusai bin Kilab bin Murrah bin Ka'b was the leader of the Quraish in Makkah. He liberated Makkah from the domination of Khuza'ah and gave honor to the Quraish after humiliation. Digging wells, serving the pilgrims of Baitullah Al-Haram, and reconstructing the Kaaba are among his prominent services. The custodianship of the Kaaba was such an honor that due to it, Qusai bin Kilab and his descendants gained a special honor and leadership not only in Makkah but in the entire Arabian Peninsula, and then this Quraish (the family of Qusai bin Kilab) proved themselves worthy of it. Qusai bin Kilab not...

*In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful* *Seerat-un-Nabi (PBUH)* *(Episode No. 1)* *Al-Ma'rifat Manzil* From today, the blessed series of the Seerat of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is being started. But before discussing his (PBUH) blessed Seerat, it is very important to familiarize you with the land of Arabia and the Arab nation and the general conditions of that era, so that you can better understand what the conditions of Arabia and the world were like at the time of his (PBUH) birth.
