Shamaail Muhammadiyyah Lesson 9 | Sh. Omer Khurshid

In this lesson, we delve into the fourth narration describing the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) as seen by al-Bara' ibn 'Āzib. The narration highlights the Prophet's unparalleled beauty, his long hair that fell upon his shoulders, and his broad build.
We also explore the lives of the narrators in this chain of narration, focusing on Mahmūd ibn Ghaylān, Wakī' ibn al-Jarrāḥ, and Sufyān al-Thawrī. These scholars made immense sacrifices to preserve and transmit the teachings of the Messenger of Allāh. The lesson also covers historical context, including the theological fitnah of the Qur'ān's creation, and the impact of scholars like Imām Ahmad ibn Hanbal, who stood firm in defending the Sunnah. Through their struggles and dedication, we learn the importance of sincerity in seeking knowledge, acting upon it, and staying true to the teachings of Islam.
Furthermore, Sufyān al-Thawrī's refusal to accept the position of qāḍī highlights his commitment to the Sunnah despite pressure from the Caliph. Additionally, there is a variation in the narration of Abū Isḥāq al-Sabī‘ī, where one student reports from Jābir ibn Samurah instead of al-Bara’ ibn ‘Āzib. Both versions are accepted, as shown by al-Bukhārī, demonstrating careful selection of narrations based on context.
