[0:16] Islam aleikum wali kum Salam. Uncle, which story are you going to tell
[0:22] me today? Hm in Charl, I think I will tell you the story
[0:28] of the paternal uncle of Prophet Mahammed sala Lahale. He was seldom, Hu.
[0:34] Who was he? His name was Hamza bin Abdul. He was the
[0:41] paternal uncle of the prophet Muhammad sala La. He was seldom. Please tell
[0:47] his story, uncle, all right, now, listen carefully. This Rahim
[0:56] the story of Hamza bin a Hamza bin Abdul Mutaleb was a son of Abdulmutaleb
[1:04] bin Hashim bin adbe Manav bin Kose, who belonged to the Korashi tribe in
[1:11] Maka. Hamzah was the paternal uncle of Prophet Mahammasal Lahuali. He was seldom.
[1:17] Hamza used to know the prophet not only as a nephew, but also
[1:22] as a brother and a friend. Because they belonged to the same generation.
[1:27] They always played together, walked together on the same road of life. But
[1:34] as they grew older, they departed, each one in his own way.
[1:40] Hamzab preferred the life of leisure, trying to climb the ranks among the prominent
[1:44] Korashi in Maka, while the young Mohammad Sala Lahuali was seldom chose the life
[1:49] of seclusion from crowd, emerged in deep spiritual meditation that prepared him to receive
[1:57] the truth. Umsa was a warrior, a hunter, and a sportsman.
[2:04] He was little interested in day to day affairs of the city. He was
[2:07] big and strong, and people respected him for his courage. Despite the fact
[2:13] that Prophet and Humza led a different life, Humza was always attentive to the
[2:19] virtues of his friend and nephew. After being bestowed with prophethood, Prophet mahammosell
[2:27] Lahuali was seldom started preaching Islam publicly, but this was not received well among
[2:32] the disbelievers in Macca. One day, Humzabin Abdul Mutalev was walking around as
[2:38] usual. When he reached the kaba, he found a group of Korashian noblemen
[2:44] sitting under a tree engaged in serious discussion. Humsa sat with them to listen
[2:49] what they were discussing. He was surprised to hear that they were talking about
[2:54] the prophet, his nephew for the first time, Humzabin abdu Muttel. So
[3:00] they were worried about his nephew. There was a tone of bitterness and rage
[3:06] against the prophet in their voices. Never before had they paid any serious attention
[3:13] to the prophet, but now he could see that they were really worried.
[3:19] Hamsa laughed at their talks and told them that they were exaggerating, but the
[3:24] korashi didn't pay any attention, and they continued with their talks. I'm the
[3:30] sad listening to them, sometimes smiling, sometimes frowning. Days passed and there
[3:38] were frequent discussions among the korashi about the Prophet, later whispering, turning to
[3:46] provocations, and Hamsa watched all this from a distance. Hamsa was impressed by
[3:53] his nephews composed steadfast attitude towards their provocations. He knew the prophet from me
[4:00] early childhood to his youth, then his honest manhood. Hamza knew the Prophet
[4:06] as he knew himself. Since they had grown up together. His nephew's life
[4:13] had been as pure as the sunlight to him. It never occurred to Humza
[4:18] that the prophet could do anything wrong in his life. He never saw his
[4:24] nephew angry, hopeless, or greedy. Hamza was not only physically strong,
[4:30] but was also wise in the head. It was natural for him to follow
[4:35] a man of honesty truthfulness. He wholeheartedly believed in. One day, Prophet
[4:43] mahamaseal a Lahuai was seldom was in deep meditation at the foot of Safa Mountain.
[4:49] It was then that Abu Jahil, one of the leader of Koresh,
[4:53] was passing by. When Abu Jahil found that the prophet was alone, he
[4:59] decided to take this opportunity. Abu Jahel went to him and started abusing him
[5:05] in a vulgar language and struck him, but the prophet remained calm. He
[5:12] stood up and not uttering a word, returned home. That day, Hamza,
[5:18] as usual, was returning home after hunting, carrying his bow in his
[5:24] hand. It was then that the servant girl of Abu Jahel ran to him
[5:29] shouting. She said, oh, Amza, have you seen what happened to
[5:33] your nephew at the hands of Abu Jael. She went on to explain what
[5:38] Abu Jahel has done to the prophet. Amsa was really angry when he heard
[5:44] this. He rushed to the kaba to confront Abu Jahel. When he saw
[5:48] him sitting among the Crash leaders. He rode like a lion. Hamsa walked
[5:55] calmly towards Abu Jahel and hit him with his bow till it broke and his
[6:00] skin bled. Then he said, how dare you rebuke my nephew and strike
[6:04] him? Then he declared, I recite Llah illaha il Allah, Moham Mother
[6:12] rasul Allah, and I accept Islam, the religion of Muhammad Sela lahuala you.
[6:17] Seldom in a moment, the men gathered there all forgot about how their
[6:24] leader, Abu Jahel had been insulted. They were all thunderstruck by the news
[6:30] that Hamza had converted to Islam. They couldn't believe that the strongest and the
[6:38] most dignified among the Korashi young men had been converted to Islam. The Korashi
[6:45] knew that this was a disaster. They knew that Hamza's conversion would inspire many
[6:53] young men to follow the prophet muhammasal Lahualai. He was seldom. They were
[6:57] concerned that the prophet would soon gained many more followers. Hamza possessed a sharp
[7:05] sight and clear consciousness. He went home and after he had relaxed from days
[7:12] of exhaustion, he sat down to think, Oh, what had happened.
[7:16] He had announced his conversion in a moment of rage. He hated to see
[7:21] his nephew being insulted and suffering without any help. But he was confused of
[7:28] whether he had done the right thing. Was this the ideal way for anyone
[7:33] to change their religion of his parents and ancestors. He was not yet familiar
[7:40] with the teachings of Islam and didn't acquire enough knowledge of this religion. It
[7:46] was true that Humsa never had any doubts about Prophet's integrity, but could anybody
[7:54] embrace new religion just in a moment of rage as he had done. Humsa
[7:59] started thinking. He spent many restless days and sleepless nights. When one tries
[8:05] to attain the truth by the power of mind, uncertainty will become a means
[8:13] of knowledge. And this is what happened to Hamza at the Kaba. He
[8:18] prayed and supplicated to the heaven, seeking help from every source that existed in
[8:24] the universe to be guided to the right path, and at last he got
[8:31] his answers. Allah filled his heart with faith and certainty. In the morning,
[8:39] he went to Prophet mohamedsell Llahuali you were seldom and he told him about
[8:43] his decision to convert to Islam. The prophet was happy to hear about this,
[8:48] and he prayed to Allah to keep his heart stable in Islam. That's
[8:54] all, Abu. Next time, I'll tell you another story. Thanks my
[9:01] Salam, Yousuf uncle. May Allah bless you, my Salamabu
