The days in which people were asked to go out for jihad were very hot, distressful, and hard. Then he took my hand and ascended with me to the nearest heaven, when I reached the nearest heaven, Gabriel said to the gatekeeper of the heaven, 'Open (the gate).' One day, while in Ar-Rabadhah, a delegation from Kufa came to ask him to raise the flag of revolution against the caliph. I replied: Allah and his Apostle know best. Abu Dharr was afraid his brethren would fall into their traps – his same brethren who had carried the standard of Islam with the Prophet SAW and whom he wanted to remain the carriers of his message. lbn Masud visualized the scene before he reached it: a scene of an out-stretched body like that of a dead person and beside him a crying woman and boy. If some people saw that standard to be an out-of-reach ideal, Abu Dharr saw it to be an example charting the path of life and toil especially for those who had actually experienced the Prophet SAW, prayed behind him, taken part in jihad with him, and sworn the oath of allegiance to him. Then Gabriel took me till we '' reached Sidrat-il-Muntaha (Lote tree of; the utmost boundry) which was shrouded in colors, indescribable. So the gate was opened and we went over the nearest heaven and there we saw a man sitting with some people on his right and some on his left. Therefore, he dismounted from his camel, took his belongings, carried them on his back, and continued his route on foot over the burning desert sand, hurrying in order to rejoin the Prophet SAW and his Companions. I asked Gabriel, 'Who is he?' Watch out, a group of the faithful will soon show up. Immediately after embracing Islam, he turned to the Prophet SAW with the following question: ‘O Messenger of Allah, what is it that you order me?’ The Prophet SAW replied, ‘Go back to your kin until my order reaches you.’ Abu Dharr said, ‘In the name of the One Who owns my soul between His hands, I am not going back until I cry out loudly declaring Islam within the mosque!’, Hereupon, he entered the Sacred House and cried out as loud as he could, ‘I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His Messenger!’. In the year 32 AH (652 CE), the self-denying Abu Dharr (R.A.) passed away. This statement turned into ‘signature time’ for his message to which he devoted his life. The destination was far away and the enemy terrifying. Hadith: O Abu Dharr, you are weak and it is a trust. I gave them to someone who needed them more than I do.’ He said to him, ‘ By Allah, you need them!’ Abu Dharr then answered, ‘May Allah forgive us. Uthman sent for Abu Dharr, asking him to come to Al-Medina. I asked Gabriel, 'Who is he?' The banners of personal glory were about to tempt those whose role in life was to lift the standard of Allah. Abu Dharr tried by all means to force it to move forward, but the burden of the camel’s exhaustion was too heavy. The idols were motionless at their places. H | Ordinary people hardly heard about his arrival before they hurried to welcome him with great enthusiasm and longing desire, surrounding him wherever he would go or stay. All his life he was truthful. ", Once I went to him (the Prophet ) and he said, "By Allah in Whose Hands my life is (or probably said, 'By Allah, except Whom none has the right to be worshipped) whoever had camels or cows or sheep and did not pay their Zakat, those animals will be brought on the Day of Resurrection far bigger and fatter than before and they will tread him under their hooves, and will butt him with their horns, and (those animals will come in circle): When the last does its turn, the first will start again, and this punishment will go on till Allah has finished the judgments amongst the people. News from all different regions of the Muslim world, confirmed that Abu Dharr’s opinions had actually agitated the multitudes, who began to crystallize around them. The governorship of Iraq was once offered to him, but he said, ‘By Allah, you will never tempt me with your world.’, Once, one of his companions saw him wearing an old gown and asked him, ‘Don’t you have another one? The Prophet added, "I passed by Moses and he said, 'Welcome! I think the word ٠را٠should be translated as bitter not sour. He went about secretly gathering information and whenever he heard someone speaking about Muhammad SAW, he carefully approached him until he was finally able to compile all the scattered pieces of information which he had heard here and there. But also, he did not keep silent, and he did not let them rest. Then he again wanted to pronounce the Adhan but the Prophet; said to him, "Let it become cooler." T | Abu Dharr (moge Allah tevreden met hem zijn) heeft overgeleverd: “Mijn geliefde Profeet (Allah’s vrede en zegeningen zij met hem) adviseerde me om drie zaken nooit achterwege te laten. Although he could only with great effort pull his feet out of the burning sand and with a lot of pain carry the heavy burden on his back, he was very delighted to have finally reached the blessed caravan without staying behind and abandoning the Prophet SAW and his Companions. He was not tempted by greedy desires nor hindered by worldly obstacles. Therefore, he did not carry a sword against those commanders who enriched themselves by taking what was the public money. There in Syria, the country of overwhelming palaces, country estates and fortunes which tempted the remnants of the carriers of the Islamic message, he began his attack. The great parade approached and entered Al-Medina. I said, "If I cannot afford to do that?" Hadith of Abu Dharr al-Ghifari - O My servants (ياعبادي) - YouTube The respectful traveller approached little by little. I returned to Moses and he told me to go back once again. The Prophet SAW could see with his unmistaken insight- across remote distances and the far unknown future – all the different difficulties Abu Dharr had to face due to his truthfulness and firmness. Then I passed by Abraham and he said, 'Welcome! So I returned to Allah and He said, 'These are five prayers and they are all (equal to) fifty (in reward) for My Word does not change.' !’ He smiles like a passing evening glow and says to her ‘Calm down. It is here that the Prophet SAW repeated his first statement. I asked Gabriel, 'Who is he?' And I own another one for the congregational Friday prayer. He said: It sets in a spring of warm water. However, the time for public declaration of the message had not yet come, so again he ordered Abu Dharr to go back to his kin and whenever he heard the announcement of the new religion, he would play his role. He asked me to look to those who are inferior and not to those who are superior. After that he cried to them ‘is it you among whom the Prophet lived when the Qurâan was being revealed? The sword was not a means of change and reformation, but the truthful, sincere, and brave word was. He asked: Do you know where this sets ? Beware, he may incite his kin against you, provoking them to rob your caravans while passing by.’ They came back to their senses and left him alone. His truthfulness was not mute merit. Their destination was the Prophet’s SAW Mosque. Power and money were, furthermore, the backbone of societies and communities. Abû Dharr kam verkleidet nach Makka und ging zum Propheten, um ihm seinen Übertritt zum Islâm mitzuteilen. A single word by him hit the target more than uncountable swords. Those on his right are the people of Paradise and those on his left are the people of Hell and when he looks towards his right he laughs and when he looks towards his left he weeps.' R | In addition to that his inspired intellect knew the decisive influence of power and property in determining people’s destiny. Within a short time he became the standard around which the labourers of Islam and the masses gathered. ", Once, while I was in the company of the Prophet (SAW), he saw the mountain of Uhud and said, "I would not like to have this mountain turned into gold for me unless nothing of it, not even a single Dinar remains of it with me for more than three days (i.e. Truthfulness of his faith as well as his tongue. He asked me never to be afraid of a critic’s censure. His order among the converts was fifth or sixth, which means that he converted during the first days, if not the first hours, of Islam. His role was not to fight but to oppose. Abu Dharr Al-Ghirari RA entered Makkah disguised as one of those who came to circumambulate the great idols of the Sacred House of the Kabah or as a passer-by who had lost his way or who had travelled far and sought provision and shelter. Had the Muslims listened on that day to his advice, a lot of civil strife and turmoil would have been prevented – turmoil that reached its peak and dangers that became grave, serious, and imminent. It is true that he saw the Prophet’s preference to whisper in those days, but he wished that a loud shout declaring Islam publicly be made by the venerable and honourable followers before his departure. I said, "Yes." Why should someone who owns such a truthful tongue and truthful conviction need a sword? So I returned to Allah and requested for further reduction and half of it was reduced. Abu Dharr, who possessed the most truthful tongue on earth, as the Prophet SAW described him, stood up. It was cried out by a stranger who did not have any relatives, reputation, or protection in Makkah. O pious Prophet and pious son.' Therefore, any disturbance which might afflict the trustworthiness of power or the fairness of wealth represents an imminent danger which must be resisted and opposed. He asked: Do you know where this sets? No doubt, the Prophet’s SAW wonder increased. When he embraced Islam the Prophet SAW was till secretly whispering the call to Islam to himself and to the five who believed in him. Hadith 24 - The Forbiddance of Oppression - On the authority of Abu Dharr Al-Ghafari, of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is that among the sayings he relates from his Lord is that He said: > "O My servants! By Allah, I didn’t lie in my life.’ He passed away. He had been created to revolt against falsehood wherever it existed. He replied, "Even if he committed illegal sexual intercourse (adultery) and theft. I replied, 'He has enjoined fifty prayers on them.' He asked me to be kind to my relatives. F | It is not meant for the ignorant but for those with a thinking mind. D | Gabriel replied, 'He is Moses.' By Allah, I'll spread Islam among the Quraish whatever may be. But he also realized the tremendous danger involved in silence; therefore, he abstained from it. S | " I said, "Even if he did such-and-such things (i.e. Anas said: "Abu Dhar added that the Prophet met Adam, Idris, Moses, Jesus and Abraham, he (Abu Dhar) did not mention on which heaven they were but he mentioned that he (the Prophet ) met Adam on the nearest heaven and Abraham on the sixth heaven. But now, the whole tribe had come after already becoming Muslim. Loans, Payment of Loans, Freezing of Property and Bankruptcy, Supplication for when the mounted animal (or mean of transport) stumbles. It was as if the Prophet had seen the whole of Abu Dharr’s destiny and future, so he bestowed upon him this precious advice. N | He spent his whole life focusing on the faults of power and the faults of money. Twenty years or more had passed since then. He replied, 'He is Adam and the people on his right and left are the souls of his offspring. ; both quicken their pace became weaker under the banner of Islam since Allah guided by.
