  • We find Waraqa in the seerah and at the very beginning of Sahih Bukhari, but with little beyond his death - making the rest of his life a mystery. Who was he before that? What is his story? What is his status? Sh. Omar Suleiman tells the story of Waraqa Ibn Nawfal, the first to confirm the prophethood.

    Waraqa Ibn Nawfal (my humble attempt to write summary)
    Waraqa and Zaid ibn umr went to sham and studied Christianity and were curious about the religion of Ibrahim
    But Zaid died 5 years before the arrival of Prophet (pbuh)
    Now it's only Waraqa waiting for the arrival of Prophet pbuh in Makkah
    . Relation to Khadeeja (r)
    (His cousin but more like an uncle due to age gap)
    His name is Waraka Ibn Nawfil Ibn Asad
    And Khadeeja(r) has Uncle named Nawfil Ibn Asad so waraqa was his first cousin (nawfil was also the name of Khadeeja's(r) brother)
    Kadeeja's(r) father name-> Khawaylid
    His father's elder brother name-> Nawfil
    So age gap between waraka and khadeeja(r) was atleast 25 to 30 years
    Waraka is the noble of the noble family
    Waraka was expected of to marry Khadeeja(r) (due to his nobility, character manners)
    But waraka rejected this world became priest ,ate little, clothed simply
    Was known as a person of knowledge really didn't combat against people who used to worship idols , And people also went to him for dream interpretation
    A dream of Khadeeja R.A that he had as a young woman that a Sun descended in her home and Waraqa interpret her dream that you might marry a noble man or a prophet
    Prophet went to As sham 2 times
    1 with Abu talib (Went back on half way on the advice of monk)
    2nd when Khadija sent him as broker with Maysara
    (2 diff monks met him on his way to as shams 2 diff times and recognised him as prophet)
    The marriage of Prophet pbuh and Khadeeja R.A was done in presence of Waraqa
    Waraqa went blind towards end of his life in his nineties and this when the famous incidence took place when Khadeeja took prophet pbuh to waraqa and prophet(s) told Waraqa what happened with prophet pbuh in Hira
    He said this is the same namus( bearer of secrets referring to jibraeel A.S) that was sent to Musa (A.S)
    And He(waraqal said that you are the prophet and immediately said after that I wish I could be with you when your people run you out! And it's nothing personal it's about the substance that you have ya Muhammad!
    And he said if I live to see that day I will support you with everything I have, with all of my strength
    So he confirmed prophethood of Prophet (s) and also asked Allah to give him strength to fight for prophet (s) but he didn't live long
    There is a difference of opinions among sahabas whether he would be one of Sahaba or mumin or musaddiq
    The last one of the follower of Christianity was the first one to confirm prophet hood of prophet (s)

    This series is so beautiful

    Hi, Thank you for this series, enjoyed so much. There are something i would like to say how much i loved this part that, first of all, prophet has been told to come to Sam which is current syria, but the place you told is not a place in syria. Maybe it is called in this way because the main route of their journey is Syria but the place told is Bursa, in present Turkey. The talk between Abi talib and bishop appears to take place in Bursa, a city just next to constantinople (istanbul) in byzantine empire. So in this talk you say this talk between abi talib and bahira take place in syria though actually not.
    Last but not least for this case, as a person who know bursa, I was told that there is a cave over there in which the path trace of prophet exist inside, it is correct or not. I had been asking myself how possible that prophet could have come here, but now I learn that that talk between ebi talib and bahira took place around that area.
    Also, it is worth mentioning that Bursa is the first capital of ottoman empire and stayed as the most influential city other than constantinople during ottoman period. The first sixths of sultans of ottoman empire is buried in Bursa. The cave in bursa that i am told the path trace of prophet exist is a little outside the city center, around 15 kms aways. Most worth mentioning is the fact that there exist a big mountain in bursa called Mount Olympos (Uludag) in which christian priests had been living in that period.
