Bilal (R.A)
Bilal (R.A) was the slave of Umayyah, Umayyah
believed in many gods and worshiped idols. When
Bilal (R.A) became a Muslim, Umayyah did not like it
so he told Bilal (R.A) to leave Islam and come worship
idols with him. When Bilal (R.A) refused his master's
order, Umayyah became angry with him and
decided to punish him.
As his punishment, Umayyah made Bilal lie on the
burning sand under the hot son. Then Umayyah
placed a heavy stone on Bilal's chest and said "Give
up Islam or die!" Bilal (R.A) suffered so much pain but
he did not give up Islam. He would only say "Allah is
One, Allah is One!"
Umayyah, along with the others, took turns to
whip Bilal (R.A) and he was left in the sun to suffer
more. Then they came back, held Bilal (R.A) from his
tied hands and dragged him in the streets. But Bilal
(R.A) was patient and kept repeating the same
words "Allah is One, Allah is One!"
At last, Abu Bakr (R.A) bought Bilal (R.A) from
Umayyah and set him free. Bilal (R.A) became the
first Muezzin of Islam and a close friend of Prophet
Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص.

The Creator of the Worlds
Prophet Ibraheem (A.S) said to his father
and his people, "What do you worship?" They
said "We worship idols." Ibrahim (A.S) asked "Do
they listen to you when you call on them? Do
they do you any good or any harm?" They
replied "No, but we found our fathers doing so."
Prophet Ibraheem (A.S) then told the
people "The things that you worship are my
enemies. I worship the Creator of the Worlds. He
created me and He guides me. He gives me
food and drink. And when I am ill, He cures me.
He will cause me to die and then to live again
and who I hope will forgive my faults on the Day
of Judgement."

Adam (A.S)
The first man to be created by Allah هلالج لج was Adam
(A.S). He was different from animals and plants in
many ways. Adam (A.S) could think, which plants
and animals cannot do. Adam (A.S) could talk and
communicate his thoughts, plants and animals
cannot do that. Who gave all this to Adam (A.S)?
Indeed it is Allah هلالج لج , the Giver of Life. Allah هلالج لج gave
Adam (A.S) the gift of speech. Allah هلالج لج gave Adam
(A.S) the gift of the mind so that he could think.

A prayer for help
Once Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص and his companions were
faced by an enemy of 1000 people at a place called Badr. At that
time the Muslims had only 2 horses and about 70 camels. The
place where they were camped had very dry, loose sand which
made it difficult to walk and there was no source of water
anywhere near them to drink.
However, their enemy had all the benefits; they were in
greater number, they had all kinds of weapons and they were
camped at a site where the ground was hard. They also had a
few wells that provided them with drinking water.
Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص lifted his hands and made dua unto
Allah هلالج لج to help the Muslims against their enemy. Allah هلالج لج
answered his dua and caused a rainfall which hardened the
ground as well as providing fresh water to drink. At the same
time, this rainfall had caused the ground on the enemy side to
become slippery and the water in their wells became muddy
and undrinkable.
The following day, Allah هلالج لج helped the Muslims to fight
against their enemy by sending down angels to fight with them.
In the end the Muslims had defeated their enemy with the help
from Allah هلالج لج who is All-Hearing.

Umar (R.A)
During the time when Umar (R.A) was the leader
of the Muslims, he was walking in the streets of
Madina and as he passed by a certain house he
heard voices coming from inside. A women and her
daughter were having a conversation, the mother
said "Let us mix some water with the milk, we can
make more money because we are poor. We need
the money and nobody will know what we did."
After hearing what her mother said, the daughter
replied "No, it is wrong to mix water with the milk and
then to sell the milk. It is against Umar (R.A)'s ruling
and it is dishonest." The mother replied "Umar (R.A) is
not here and he does not know what we are doing."
The daughter replied to her mother by saying "We
must obey Umar (R.A), even if he is not here. Besides,
he may not know but how can we hide from Allah هلالج لج
? He sees everything and knows all."
After hearing their conversation, Umar (R.A)
walked off silently because he was very pleased with
the girl.

Allah can see you anywhere
Junayd was a man who lived in Baghdad. He was a very religious
person (saint) and had many followers. Among his followers,
one of them was his favorite and Junayd noticed that some of
the other followers were jealous of the favorite one.
One day, Junayd called all his followers to meet with him. He
said to them "Each one of you will take a chicken and slaughter
it in a place where no one can see you. Then bring the meat to
me. I am going to have a special dish prepared for you." All his
followers went in their own direction and began slaughtering
their chicken in a place where they thought nobody could see
them.
Later in the day, all of the followers returned with the meat
except for the favorite one who came back with his chicken still
alive. Junayd asked him "Why did you not slaughter the
chicken?" He replied "I could not find such a place where no one
could see me. No matter where I went Allah هلالج لج could still see
me!" After hearing what he said, Junayd turned to the other
followers and said "Now, do you see why I like him so much?"

A mother's love
Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص was sitting and talking to his
companions (R.A). Then a man came up to them and said
"a wonderful thing happened, I was passing by a bush and
heard a chirping noise. I peeped in and saw two young
pigeons. I picked them up in my wrapper and started
walking. By this time the mother pigeon came back to see
her nest was empty. She began flying above us. As I
opened my wrapper and how strange! The mother pigeon
came down into my wrapper and sat over her young
ones. See! They are still in my wrapper."
Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص saw the birds and said to the
man, "Go at once and put them back in their nest. A
mother has much love for her young ones. However, my
companions, Allah هلالج لج has far more love and concern for
His creation."

The blind snake
A gang of robbers were on their way to their
destination. They began to feel hungry and stopped
at a place where they saw three date trees. Two of
the three trees were green and had fruit growing on
them but the third one was dry and had no fruit or
leaves.
One member of the gang saw a bird flying with
fruit from the green tree and taking it to the dry tree.
This happened a few times until the robber became
curious. He wanted to know what the bird was doing
with the fruit. So, he climbed up the tree and saw a
snake at the top of it. The snake was blind and its
mouth was open. The bird was putting dates in its
mouth. When the robber saw this, he was surprised
and began to cry. He said " O Allah, you have
caused this bird to provide for the snake with food
and I am busy robbing others."
Through this the robber saw the kindness of Allah
هلالج لج The robber broke his sword and begged Allah . هلالج لج
to forgive him. He told his partners what he saw and
they all broke their swords and decided to give up
their evil ways.

The fish in the sea
Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص sent a group of
three-hundred men towards the sea-shore on a
mission. Before they left he gave each person a
bag full of dates. After 15 days had passed the
dates began to slowly finish and the men ran
short of food. The Ameer collected all the dates
that were left with each person and stored
them in a bag. He would give one date to each
person for the day and at last when all the
dates were finished the men began to worry.
During all this hardship, the men made sabr
and were patient and Allah هلالج لج had mercy on
them and they arrieved near the sea. A big fish
known as 'ambar' came to shore. It was so big
that they lived on it for 18 days. They also filled
their bags with the remaining portion which
lasted them until they reached Madeena.
When this event was related to Prophet
Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص he said "the fish was provided for
you by Allah هلالج لج .

Asking for Allah هلالج لج's help
The Quraysh army, who were the enemies of the Muslims,
had about 1,000 men in their army. The men were fully armed
and had come to fight the Muslims. The Muslims at the time had
about 300 men and only 2 horses. Most of them had swords but
only a few men had armor.
The armies met at a place called Badr. Prophet Muhammad
prayed to Allah "O Allah! We need your help! If this small ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص
group of ours is killed, there would be none left to worship you.
Neither our number nor our strength is of any use. Your help
alone can save us!" The Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص urged the
Muslims to fight and said "those who died fighting the enemy,
would get Jannah."
Although the Muslims were all on foot and 300 of the
enemy men were on horseback, Allah هلالج لج had sent down angels
to help the Muslims fight, the Muslims fought very bravely and
won the battle. In the end, the Muslims lost 14 men, the enemy
lost 70 men and 70 were taken as prisoners.

Protected by Allah هلالج لج
When the people of Makkah planned to kill
Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص, he and his companion, Abu
Bakr (R.A) left Makkah to go to Madina. After they
left, men were sent in all directions to look for him
and a reward of 100 camels was offered to anyone
who captured Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص.
The Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص and Abu Bakr (R.A)
hid in a cave in Mount Thoor. One search party
reached the entrance of the cave, they were so
close to the cave that those inside the cave could
hear their voices. Abu Bakr was concerned, he said
"O Messenger of Allah, the enemy will see us!" The
Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص was calm, he replied "don’t
be afraid! Surely Allah is with us."
Then a voice was heard from the outside of the
cave saying, "nobody has entered the cave. Look at
the spider's web over the entrance of the cave!" The
search party left the cave and went in another
direction. The Prophet Muhammad ملسو هيلع هللا ىلص and Abu Bakr
(R.A) were protected by Allah هلالج لج and no one could
harm them.
