I swear by the Lord of Muhammad(may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), you always bring me a special joy when I see you, I love for the sake of Allah,, I pray Allah gives me a chance to meet you once in my lifetime. I love you Dr Omar suleiman for the sake of Allah only.
Seerah of the Prophet sallahu alaihi wa sallam just makes me speechless! the twists and turns are mind taking, all I can understand is that Allah swt wanted it that way! Subhana Allah!
Wallahi My heart aches reading the comments today! No matter what happened Abu Sufyan Ibn Harb (Radhi Allah Ta'ala Anhu) is the companion of The messenger of Allah (Sallala hu Alaihe Wassalam). Whatever happened is between Him and Allah. All we know that He and his son being the companions of The Messenger of Allah (Sallala hu Alaihe Wassalam) are way better than us! We should think twice raising our tounges for whom Allah decided to be among the best generation!
May Allah keep us steadfast on His path and gives us the strength and patience to endure the tests that we are facing. Verily, with every hardship comes ease.
Anyone thinking about leadership needs to study the life and leadership of the prophet Muhammad(pbuh) considering where he started and his level of success.
May Allah continue to bless you for this series and all the work you do. May this series be one of your many legacies. JAK for bringing many of us so much closer to, and loving, our beloved Prophet’s beloved companions.
I have not watched the talk yet, but thank you in advance for making a video about Abu Sufyan (ra). An exceptional man whose story and that of his entire banu Ummiya was distorted in the Abbasid era. Muslims need to re-read and analyse their history. جزاك الله خيراً
Salam ustad jazak 1:15:30 Allahu khairan for telling us of the story of the time of the Quraish. However today's golf countrie's leaders are abu soufian and we're leaving in time of jahilia party because of them. This is why this is called the great khasia, the great revealer, we see who is what. Free 🇵🇸
Walahie, the love I have for you, Dr. Sulaiman is unimaginable. I prayed to Allah SWT to meet you one day in my lifetime. May YA Allah grant you long life and good health 🙏
Assalamu alaykom wa rahma'tullah wa barakatuh, sister Marlene Steele, Alhamdulillah ala kulli hal, in the sight of Allah and the ones who have submitted to Him, you are precious, Alhamdulillah ala kulli hal, may Allah grant the ummah hedayah, becaus ethat racism is haram, and no good will come of it. *hug you are our sister and no-one has any right to treat you as 'less' based upon the colour of your skin, which is beautiful
Before Allah the human relationship has no value but it is the character of the person that is important. As such, the wife of the Pharaoh Aasia is a sign for the momins (Chapter At-Tahrim peated thoundsVerse - 11) and wives of two prophets Hazrat Noah and Lot (علیہ السلام) are signs for the pagans (Chapter At-Tahrim Verse -10). Therefore, we must respect Sahabas based on the criterion provided by Quran.
Assalamualaikum Sh. Omar. I hope you see this. I've recently rediscovered Islam and your lectures have played a major role in clearing my confusions and doubts. May Allah bless you for it. With this acknowledgment firmly in mind, I want to say that I wish you hadn't covered this man in this series. The only new thing I learnt about him is that he lost both his eyes in the way of fighting for Allah. But we know he was a ferocious fighter and he fought ferociously against Muslims too. So I don't know what to make of that supposed bravery. He stayed loyal to the Muslims after the Fatah but we know he was a diplomat and a strategizer. Maybe he knew what was at stake if he switched sides. The mercy Prophet Muhammad pbuh showed him speaks more about the Prophet's character than anything this man deserved even if just to politically win him over. He raised mauwaiya who went on to fight Ali R.A. Under muawaiya, Ali R.A was mocked and slandered in front of people. I fear that you may cover muawiya too now in the series. I'm genuinely afraid of that now. Because if you do, who's going to be my teacher? Who will I follow and trust? May Allah have mercy on me and you don't go that far in your respect for whoever you want to respect. I have nothing against that. But please just consider this text if you see it. I'm not sure if I've been able to convey my feelings properly. I pray Allah puts in your heart not to cover personalities that are the source of deep hurt for so many Muslims, especially if those personalities aren't pivotal in the Islamic understanding. May Allah have mercy on me. May Allah have mercy on all of us.
just so you know Ahlus Sunnah love Muawiyah and many consider him as the writer of Quran etc. I wont be surprised if an episode is dedicated to him. This whole family is questionable- his wife chewed Hamza’s liver, his son is Muawiyah, his grandson is Yazeed the killer of Al Hussain- the grandson of the Prophet.
I respect your genuine will for learning, i’m in the same boat and I don’t understand why sheikhs/imams hide certain truths from the ummah when it can be useful to understand our history and thus better understand our deen. Our deen says humans are fallible, and humans are able to learn from mistakes, why the insistence on hiding it/giving an incomplete picture of the whole truth? Just because someone has done a bad deed doesn’t mean he’s all good and vice versa. Why nitpick truths, rather than teach people that it isn’t all black and white so they can use this insight to better apply their deen/face life, i also wonder how he’ll tell muawiya’s story.. I hope sheikh omar answers us
May Allah keep you and us all firm on the truth Ameen! My position is the position of mainstream Sunni scholars throughout history like Al Dhahabi and ibn Hajr. We neither put the last converts on the level of the earliest companions and family of the Prophet ﷺ, nor do we diminish them or bring them down to our level. Everyone has their promised rank, and we love all the companions and find wisdom in their stories. As for Yazeed, his crimes are well known and he is not a companion. My position is that of Imam Ahmad who said no one who loves the Sunnah could love Yazeed. When he was asked why he doesn’t curse him, he said to his son “when have you seen your father cursing people?” In any case, I do not deviate from the mainstream of Ahlus Sunnah on these figures, and believe their position is sound and rightly guided. May Allah guide us all! Ameen
@@hamzakhairi4765 He was. There are authentic ahadees about it. Friday sermons were used and encouraged by the government to slander Ali R.A. Mauwiya created or helped create/sustain the environment where what yazeed did become possible. Atrocities like yazeed's don't occur in a vacuum. It's not like one day things were fine and then suddenly yazeed came into power with such deep hatred for the Prophet's family and went on to massacre them all. There's a context to it, and in our desperation to respect all companions no matter what, we shut our eyes and ears to some of the worst things these later companions did. And keep in mind, they are called companions just on technicality, these people who entered Islam such late didn't really give up a lot for Islam. I'm not a shia and I don't consider myself a sunni either. I think both of these groups are extremists. One hates earlier companions and the other revers the later ones to an extreme that they are not even willing to accept their crimes. For people like me who are somewhere in the middle, who loves the Prophet's family, his companions, and friends...there is very little space for us. I don't follow shia scholars because I don't believe in their insistence or concept of imamat. I stay away from most sunni scholars too because they force to make people like mawiya and Abu Sufyan mainstream. I mean it's okay if you want to respect them privately, but why amplify their stories and why normalize them? They committed serious crimes and unlike Omar R.A (who was really strict and therefore not readily accepted as Abu Bakr R.A was as the khalifa) they have almost no contributions towards Islam. Omar R.A gave it all up and risked his life, limb, and livelihood for Allah and Islam. These people just enjoyed the perks Islam brought them. Anyway, what you and I personally feel about personalities in Islam is our own responsibility. But when we use a platform to highlight stories and people, we must be extremely careful. I'm sure Sheikh Omar is just showing his commitment as a sunni scholar and highlighting all companions with equal respect. I may disagree with it but at the end of the day it's his platform and his decision to make. I'll continue following him, accepting what's in line with what Allah and the Prophet pbuh say, and letting all the rest go. May Allah have mercy on all us, and may He guides us to the straight path.
Jazak Allah ya sheikh. Is it possible to have this series in the form of a book please? It would be greatly appreciated. Also can you do a similar series on the Prophets as well at some point?
Hey Sheik! Can u do a video on controlling ur nafs & I’ve been getting intrusive thought after ramandan, can u do a video on that too.. love your stuff btw 🤍
JazakAllah khair for the beautiful lecture, alhamdulillah. The Abu Sufyan who was by the side of the prophet(saw)on the day of Hunayn, wasn't he Abu Sufyan Ibn al Harith( the cousin of the prophet (saw))as opposed to Abu Sufyan bin Harb?
Indeed he was and they are not on the level of the early companions as I’ve made clear while covering this last batch, but the position of ahlus sunnah is still one of reverence and respect and that they’re all better than us.
@@OmarSuleimanPersonal thank you for the comment shaykh. ofcourse we aren’t better than anyone- who knew what we would have been in that era. thanks for the reminder.
Masallah barekellah. Excellent to listen to his story. That Allah has given him a gift of iman. So many similarities with what is happening in Gaza, they then also didn't understand how Muslims can still love our Prophet pbuh enduring all kind of tortures and on a wordly view a bad situation. May Allah turn the hearts and give iman
The enemy remained the enemy even if in secret ONLY Allah Knows the hearts but we can judge by the actions of this "sahabi" and his son Muawiah who ended the system of Khilafah and began the Muslim Kingship. And NOONE can deny this. Can you brother Sulaiman.
Haven’t watched the video but am shocked you put ra behind the name of someone who hated Imam Ali and was responsible for creating numerous insults against the only man who was closest to the prophet! Please re-read your history.
I agree. While I believe that Allah chooses the martyrs from those he sees fit, I believe men like Ikrimah ibn Abi Jahl (R.A), Suhayl ibn Amr (R.A), and Abu Sufyan Ibn Al-Harith (R.A) proved their worth after their acceptance of Islam. Ikrimah was the hero of Tabuk, Suhayl stood up to the nigh-apostasy of the Meccans, and Abu Sufyan (Al-Mughira) Ibn Al-Harith is known for his exemplar worship and repentence... That being said, only thing I can think of when it comes to Abu Sufyan (Sakhr) ibn Harb, is his obsession with power and status even after Islam... That later culminated in Muawiya falsely claiming the caliphate, and Yazid killing Al-Hussayn (R.A)... Yet according to many scholars, we're expected to see all companions as equals and flawless examples, no matter who they are or were... Well, Abdullah ibn Ubayy ibn Salul was a companion, and he was the chief hypocrit. Dhu-l-Khuwaisira was a companion, and he eventually led to the emergence of the Khawarij. Busr ibn Arta'a was a companion as well, and he was the first to capture and enslave Muslim free women and sell them in the market as slaves. I do not, of course, agree with the bloody spectacles and wailing of the Shiaa, but anyone who equals Ali to Muawiya is a psychopath.
@@SadaqaJariyaaaa the sahabah used to see him in Medina and say out loud there goes the man whom we beat into accepting Islam. Maybe the real sahabah should have some shame?

@@hamzakhairi4765 He was. There are authentic ahadees about it. Friday sermons were used and encouraged by the government to slander Ali R.A.
Mauwiya created or helped create/sustain the environment where what yazeed did become possible. Atrocities like yazeed's don't occur in a vacuum. It's not like one day things were fine and then suddenly yazeed came into power with such deep hatred for the Prophet's family and went on to massacre them all. There's a context to it, and in our desperation to respect all companions no matter what, we shut our eyes and ears to some of the worst things these later companions did. And keep in mind, they are called companions just on technicality, these people who entered Islam such late didn't really give up a lot for Islam.
I'm not a shia and I don't consider myself a sunni either. I think both of these groups are extremists. One hates earlier companions and the other revers the later ones to an extreme that they are not even willing to accept their crimes.
For people like me who are somewhere in the middle, who loves the Prophet's family, his companions, and friends...there is very little space for us. I don't follow shia scholars because I don't believe in their insistence or concept of imamat. I stay away from most sunni scholars too because they force to make people like mawiya and Abu Sufyan mainstream.
I mean it's okay if you want to respect them privately, but why amplify their stories and why normalize them? They committed serious crimes and unlike Omar R.A (who was really strict and therefore not readily accepted as Abu Bakr R.A was as the khalifa) they have almost no contributions towards Islam. Omar R.A gave it all up and risked his life, limb, and livelihood for Allah and Islam. These people just enjoyed the perks Islam brought them.
Anyway, what you and I personally feel about personalities in Islam is our own responsibility. But when we use a platform to highlight stories and people, we must be extremely careful. I'm sure Sheikh Omar is just showing his commitment as a sunni scholar and highlighting all companions with equal respect. I may disagree with it but at the end of the day it's his platform and his decision to make. I'll continue following him, accepting what's in line with what Allah and the Prophet pbuh say, and letting all the rest go. May Allah have mercy on all us, and may He guides us to the straight path.

Jazak Allah ya sheikh. Is it possible to have this series in the form of a book please? It would be greatly appreciated. Also can you do a similar series on the Prophets as well at some point?
Finally !!!! Alhamdulillah ☺. Um Dr Omar, I was wondering how you study and gather info about such intricate biographies?
Hey Sheik! Can u do a video on controlling ur nafs & I’ve been getting intrusive thought after ramandan, can u do a video on that too.. love your stuff btw 🤍
if muhammad(saw) had a twin that lived to this day
Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁😀
Another lesson is: not to judge the reverts.
Sub'hanAllaah ❤😢❤❤❤
Please post The Firsts series on google podcast
JazakAllah khair for the beautiful lecture, alhamdulillah.
The Abu Sufyan who was by the side of the prophet(saw)on the day of Hunayn, wasn't he Abu Sufyan Ibn al Harith( the cousin of the prophet (saw))as opposed to Abu Sufyan bin Harb?
❤❤
My name is sufyon
Power of redemption and the wisdom of Rasulullah (saw)
He was of the Tulaqa!
They’ll never tell you that part lol
Indeed he was and they are not on the level of the early companions as I’ve made clear while covering this last batch, but the position of ahlus sunnah is still one of reverence and respect and that they’re all better than us.
@@OmarSuleimanPersonal thank you for the comment shaykh. ofcourse we aren’t better than anyone- who knew what we would have been in that era. thanks for the reminder.
Masallah barekellah. Excellent to listen to his story. That Allah has given him a gift of iman. So many similarities with what is happening in Gaza, they then also didn't understand how Muslims can still love our Prophet pbuh enduring all kind of tortures and on a wordly view a bad situation. May Allah turn the hearts and give iman
❤
When are we going to get to the young sahabas like hassan hussain usama abdullah ibn omar ibn abass may Allah be pleased with them?
My dad's name is Abu Sufian
THANK YOU SK FOR RECOMMENDING THIS CHANNEL...
I'LL WAIT FOR YOU.. FOREVER.. FOREVER... FOREVER....
Masha Allah! He has always been a controversial figure for me, especially with the history of Moawia. Allah knows!
@omerSuleiman sir, can you please provide any daleel about Hind r.a chewing the liver of Hamzah r.a?
To the best of my knowledge, the rivayat that is presented as proof about this is daeef
I think he did
@@jahedameman2328
He didn't provide any sound daleel, that is why I asked
Reference from Ibn e Is'haq or any other history book won't be accepted
Ask chat GPT 😂
Amazing story
The enemy remained the enemy even if in secret ONLY Allah Knows the hearts but we can judge by the actions of this "sahabi" and his son Muawiah who ended the system of Khilafah and began the Muslim Kingship. And NOONE can deny this. Can you brother Sulaiman.

Haven’t watched the video but am shocked you put ra behind the name of someone who hated Imam Ali and was responsible for creating numerous insults against the only man who was closest to the prophet! Please re-read your history.
Ok
Rumors are that you do not call for unity between Shia and Sunnies . Why is that ?
A true believer has no time for rumors.
Lot of fakes account here …please RUclips
Not interested in this man. May Allah deal with him and his progeny as He sees fit.
I agree. While I believe that Allah chooses the martyrs from those he sees fit, I believe men like Ikrimah ibn Abi Jahl (R.A), Suhayl ibn Amr (R.A), and Abu Sufyan Ibn Al-Harith (R.A) proved their worth after their acceptance of Islam. Ikrimah was the hero of Tabuk, Suhayl stood up to the nigh-apostasy of the Meccans, and Abu Sufyan (Al-Mughira) Ibn Al-Harith is known for his exemplar worship and repentence...
That being said, only thing I can think of when it comes to Abu Sufyan (Sakhr) ibn Harb, is his obsession with power and status even after Islam... That later culminated in Muawiya falsely claiming the caliphate, and Yazid killing Al-Hussayn (R.A)...
Yet according to many scholars, we're expected to see all companions as equals and flawless examples, no matter who they are or were... Well, Abdullah ibn Ubayy ibn Salul was a companion, and he was the chief hypocrit. Dhu-l-Khuwaisira was a companion, and he eventually led to the emergence of the Khawarij. Busr ibn Arta'a was a companion as well, and he was the first to capture and enslave Muslim free women and sell them in the market as slaves.
I do not, of course, agree with the bloody spectacles and wailing of the Shiaa, but anyone who equals Ali to Muawiya is a psychopath.
He is a companion have some shame
@SadaqaJariyaaaa to me he was always the enemy
@pavelrofkowicz2518 then his son ended the khilafat. And then his grandson killed the prophet's grand son and you want me to have shame?
@@SadaqaJariyaaaa the sahabah used to see him in Medina and say out loud there goes the man whom we beat into accepting Islam. Maybe the real sahabah should have some shame?
Assalamu alaikum sheikh.. may Allah swt reward u.. please make an episode about hind bint utba ra. Pleas...
