Download or read book The Authentic Biography of Bilal Bin Rabah The First Mu adhdhin of Islam written by Mohammed Thajammul Hussain Manna and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-10 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a small booklet on the Biography of the noble companion Bilal bin Rabah compiled with an intention to gather for the Muslim reader an authentic compendium of narrations related to this very companion.It is indeed disappointing that in the absence of authentically established materials, Muslims are turning to false narratives and fictionally designed movies on the Seerah (biography) of the companion Bilal bin Rabah, disregarding the 'Islamic Principles' of verifying narrations or pieces of information before spreading them.This book is not an emotional narrative of the noble Sahabi's (companion of the Prophet) life, rather I've tried to gather as many authentic reports as possible related to Bilal's life alongside the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. It is up to the responsible reader to sit with a student of knowledge and derive benefits from the Ahadith (Hadiths) as and when necessary In Sha Allah in case he doesn't comprehend an issue. At times I have written summarized paragraphs to chalk out a background of the events surrounding a Hadith about Bilal's role in order to assist the readers' flow. I have tried to keep the 'summaries' as little as possible to avoid drifting away from the main 'protagonist' of this book, our own beloved Bilal bin Rabah . (pentopublish4)

Bilal sees his sister bullied on their first day, so he worries about being teased himself, thinking it might be best if his classmates didn't know that he is Muslim. Maybe if he tells kids his name is Bill, rather than Bilal, then they will eave him alone. But when Bilal's teacher Mr. Ali, who is also Muslim, sees how Bilal is struggling.

Download or read book The Call of Bilal written by Edward E. Curtis IV and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do people in the African diaspora practice Islam? While the term "Black Muslim" may conjure images of Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali, millions of African-descended Muslims around the globe have no connection to the American-based Nation of Islam. The Call of Bilal is a penetrating account of the rich diversity of Islamic religious practice among Africana Muslims worldwide. Covering North Africa and the Middle East, India and Pakistan, Europe, and the Americas, Edward E. Curtis IV reveals a fascinating range of religious activities--from the observance of the five pillars of Islam and the creation of transnational Sufi networks to the veneration of African saints and political struggles for racial justice. Weaving together ethnographic fieldwork and historical perspectives, Curtis shows how Africana Muslims interpret not only their religious identities but also their attachments to the African diaspora. For some, the dispersal of African people across time and space has been understood as a mere physical scattering or perhaps an economic opportunity. For others, it has been a metaphysical and spiritual exile of the soul from its sacred land and eternal home.

Download or read book Slavery written by Sayyid Saeed Akhtar Rizvi and published by Ahlul Bait (a.s.) Foundation of South Africa. This book was released on 2001-08-17 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been re-published to coincide the occasion of the third World Conference against Racism, Xenophobia, and intolerance, held in Durban, South Africa, 2001. The prevailing opinion is that slavery has been committed to the dustbins of history, yet the effect of this odious barbarism primarily against the African people manifest itself well into the 21st century. Since it's formal abolition in 1863, it has assumed a more devious face, in the form of "refurbished" slavery. Globalisation through the domination of the forces of production by Multi National cartels is a new form of slavery. Allamah Rizvi re-visits this contentious issue of the slave and defines it within its rightful context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "'Umar bin Khattab is one of the great Companions of the Prophet and second Caliph of Islam. He was so firm in his practice of Islam that he usually could sense what was right or wrong before the Prophet had informed others of it. He used to say to this friends: if a mule stumbles near the Euphrates River, I fear being questioned by Allah as to why I had not paved the road for it. This book sheds light on the life and struggle of the greatest example of a just ruler. We should follow his footsteps to maintain justice in every walk of our life." -- Back of book.
Download or read book A Muslim American Slave written by Omar Ibn Said and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2011-07-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born to a wealthy family in West Africa around 1770, Omar Ibn Said was abducted and sold into slavery in the United States, where he came to the attention of a prominent North Carolina family after filling “the walls of his room with piteous petitions to be released, all written in the Arabic language,” as one local newspaper reported. Ibn Said soon became a local celebrity, and in 1831 he was asked to write his life story, producing the only known surviving American slave narrative written in Arabic. In A Muslim American Slave, scholar and translator Ala Alryyes offers both a definitive translation and an authoritative edition of this singularly important work, lending new insights into the early history of Islam in America and exploring the multiple, shifting interpretations of Ibn Said’s narrative by the nineteenth-century missionaries, ethnographers, and intellectuals who championed it. This edition presents the English translation on pages facing facsimile pages of Ibn Said’s Arabic narrative, augmented by Alryyes’s comprehensive introduction, contextual essays and historical commentary by leading literary critics and scholars of Islam and the African diaspora, photographs, maps, and other writings by Omar Ibn Said. The result is an invaluable addition to our understanding of writings by enslaved Americans and a timely reminder that “Islam” and “America” are not mutually exclusive terms.

Download or read book The First Muslim written by Lesley Hazleton and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muhammad's was a life of almost unparalleled historical importance; yet for all the iconic power of his name, the intensely dramatic story of the prophet of Islam is not well known. In The First Muslim, Lesley Hazleton brings him vibrantly to life. Drawing on early eyewitness sources and on history, politics, religion, and psychology, she renders him as a man in full, in all his complexity and vitality. Hazleton's account follows the arc of Muhammad's rise from powerlessness to power, from anonymity to renown, from insignificance to lasting significance. How did a child shunted to the margins end up revolutionizing his world? How did a merchant come to challenge the established order with a new vision of social justice? How did the pariah hounded out of Mecca turn exile into a new and victorious beginning? How did the outsider become the ultimate insider?

Abu Bakr always remained at the Prophet's side and he had no reservations about spending his wealth for the sake of Islam and the Muslims. The Prophet's companions all recognized his superiority, yet he always remained humble and sincere towards all.
