The last person that we will cover, bi'idhnillahi ta'ala,
SubhanAllah, several, several years ago, previous lifetime, I did a video about this companion, Julaybib (رضي الله عنه). And I didn't get to give the full context of Julaybib (رضي الله عنه).
Julaybib (رضي الله عنه), Ansari, he's considered from the Ansar. la yu'rafu lahu ismun aakhar wala nasabun muhaqqa
We don't know a single other name for him, nor do we know what tribe he belonged to, nor do we even know what region he belonged to. qeela annahu min al-ansar min ahlil madina
It's said that he was from the Ansar somewhere, min ahlil madina. And nothing, lam yuhfad ila ayyi bayt au hayyin minhum, kana yantami
Like he had no home, no tribe, no region that would claim him. So he's an unclaimed young man, somewhere in Madinah, unknown. And this is where the description of him comes.
wakana damim al-khalqati, that he was deformed, he had many deformities. qaseer al-qama, he was extremely short.
And people would comment on his appearance before Islam, and they would belittle it. So he's someone who was actually bullied for his appearance.
With Zahir (رضي الله عنه), we don't have that narration about him. We just have a bullied person in his appearance. SubhanAllah, you think about like Allah azza wa jalla talking about the exploitation of the yatim, the orphan. Or a person who has no tribe, no nasab.
Or a person who is physically, you know, something to be mocked. Or racism. Julaybib (رضي الله عنه) was extremely dark skinned. So you gotta reckon with racism. Julaybib (رضي الله عنه) has no tribe to protect him.
You gotta reckon with tribalism. Every single ism has to be reckoned with, is stacked against him, (رضي الله عنه). Wa maa thalik kana sahiba qalbin tahir wa mahboobin inda rasoolillahi (ﷺ). That's the bio.
All these descriptions, but with that, his heart was so pure. And he was so beloved to the Prophet (ﷺ). So he was a sweetheart, (رضي الله عنه), when he would be walking around the masjid.
Now subhanAllah, I was trying to like do research into his name. What does the name Julaybib mean? Does anyone know? It's the tasgheer, it's the diminutive of a word. What sounds like Julaybib?
Sisters should have, all the brothers and, where are the sisters? Jilbab. What did you say? Julaib, what is it? Are we talking about desserts now? Alright. Jilbab, jilbab.
So if Ibn Hajar rahimAllahu ta'ala, he actually mentions that it is the tasgheer of jilbab. Which is the cloth of a woman, right? The way that a woman would cloak herself.
And subhanAllah, that in and of itself has a whole theory behind it. Why was he called that? Either because he was walking around and he was wrapped up all the time.
Like a little jilbab walking around the masjid. Walking around the city of Madinah, right? Or it referred to his skin color, the darkness of his skin color. Because a jilbab, especially with the Muslims, was typically dark.
So is it the skin color? Is it the little jilbab? Or it refers to the warm embrace of him. That you hug him and you hold him tight. Almost from a place of playfulness.
That someone called him Julaybib. Like someone hugged him and called him that. Maybe like a grandma or something like that. And that stuck with him for the rest of his life. And that was his name that was known. But it's not his real name. So not only do we not know his last name.
We actually don't even know his first name. Okay? Julaybib is just murakab. It's something that he was called by. But there is something that the ulama mention that's extremely important here.
Whatever the term meant, we know for a fact that it was not a derogatory name. Why? Because the Prophet (ﷺ) didn't change it. Prophet (ﷺ) would change people's names.
وَلَا تَنَابَزُ بِالْأَلْقَابِ He wouldn't let you call someone by a derogatory nickname. Even if the nickname had a bad meaning to it. He would change it (ﷺ). And if the name had a bad meaning to it, and it was the most powerful person in society.
He changed the name (ﷺ). So the Prophet's (ﷺ) sunnah was not only to not call people by a name that was derogatory in its nature. But to change any name that had anything negative implied within it.
So why would he say Julaybib and let it go if it was something that was derogatory? So little Jilbab is his name. Right? Walking around the masjid, wrapped up.
(رضي الله عنه) And كان (رضي الله عنه) من الفقراء المتواضعين He was someone who was very poor. لا مال له ولا جه He had no money. He had no presence.
ومع ذلك أحبه (ﷺ) The Prophet (ﷺ) loved him. وخصه And the Prophet (ﷺ) would prefer him in his dealing. So like if there is a gathering or a get together, the Prophet (ﷺ) brought him forward. بالعطاء
Like if the Prophet (ﷺ) is giving something, he brought Julaybib up first. Brought him to the first of the line. And he tried to build his place in society. (رضي الله عنه) Now Abu Barza al-Aslami, (رضي الله عنه)
He has a narration about himself. He says that Julaybib Julaybib (رضي الله عنه) Used to be a young man يدخل على النساء يمر بهم ويلاعبهن
يعني يتحدثنا معه That he used to enter He used to spend his time with the women in Madinah. He would enter upon the women freely. And he would play with them.
And it's explained play with them means like he would talk to them more. And the implication is that he found harshness amongst the men. He found harshness, bullying amongst the men.
Which isn't hard to imagine. So he found a softness amongst the women that he inclined towards. And this is before the ayat of hijab are revealed. So this is very early on in Islam. Remember there is a learning curve here.
And the Prophet (ﷺ) is getting a hold on society. And I have a theory as to how early he died in Islam by the way which I'll mention insha'Allah ta'ala. But he's someone (رضي الله عنه) who used to enter into the gatherings of the women not amongst the men
because of the harshness that he found amongst the men. That's the implication. And he said, until I said to my wife لا يدخلن عليكم جلايبيب فإنه اندخل عليكم لا أفعلن ولا أفعلن Right? Like I got jealous.
Like it's a little bit too much. Julaybib should not enter amongst you. And if I see this happen again then this is going to happen and this is going to happen. So he's saying like I was not happy about the fact that he was always amongst the women. Right?
And this is implied before the ayat of hijab. Okay? Now he actually, Abu Barza, comments he's one of the narrators of one of the famous stories of Julaybib afterwards.
Right? As if to say like I didn't know what he really meant amongst the Prophet (ﷺ). He said I was a very jealous man. So like even though Julaybib was described as being quote unquote ugly and Julaybib was this and this and this and that and he had, but like خلاص
it wasn't working for me that he's still a young man and he's still entering and he's still spending time with the women. And this is before the ayat of hijab were revealed. So there's no تحريم here. It's not prohibition. It's just my غيرة. It's just my jealousy. Right? That's the implication.
Then he continues in his narration. He says قلت الأنصار إذا كان لأحدهم أي من لم يزوجها حتى يعلم هل للنبي (ﷺ) فيها حاجة أم لا This is so powerful.
It says that the Ansar, if one of their women became a widow, a daughter or a sister, whatever it may be, then before they would marry her off to anyone else, they first wanted to just make sure
that the Prophet (ﷺ) had no interest. Because maybe the one in a million possibility that the Prophet (ﷺ) might ask for her hand. And it actually makes sense. If you're the Ansar and you love the Prophet (ﷺ) that much
and he's entered upon you, in your mind, could it be, maybe, maybe there's a chance, maybe there's a possibility. So let's leave a window open. And if the Prophet (ﷺ) comes to her house, right when their عدة finishes, maybe, maybe this is going to happen.
Obviously, it doesn't happen. In almost every situation, alright? And there's a whole, SubhanAllah, beauty and power by the way, to where some of the ulema mention, like the Prophet (ﷺ),
he married some of the women from the warring tribes, right? And that was a means of bringing people together. He didn't even have to do that with the Ansar because they already loved him more than they loved themselves. Like the Prophet (ﷺ) did not have to go around
marrying a woman from this tribe and that tribe. They already gave themselves fully to the Prophet (ﷺ). Like in that, was one of the main meanings, objectives of the Prophet (ﷺ) to marry from Banu Mustalaq, to marry the daughter of Abu Sufyan,
to try to bring people together, right? So anyway, so he says, so the Prophet (ﷺ) went to a man from the Ansar and they kind of got excited. Prophet (ﷺ) walked in
and the Prophet (ﷺ) said, I'm here to propose marriage. And they said, نعمة وكرامة يا رسول الله What an amazing blessing, ya Rasool Allah.
What an amazing honor, ya Rasool Allah. The best son-in-law that a person could ask for. The best in-laws that a person could ask for. And the Prophet (ﷺ) says, wait up. إني لست أريدها لنفسي I'm not asking for her for me.
Oh, okay. Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, Ali, Abdurrahman ibn Auf. I mean, like it's a big deal. The Prophet (ﷺ) is here to propose on someone's behalf. They said, okay, well,
whoever the Prophet (ﷺ) brings is also going to fit a caliber. So like we're disappointed but not yet. So they said, who is it, ya Rasool Allah? He said, جلي بيب So the man doesn't want to disrespect the Prophet (ﷺ) right away.
He says, أشاوير أمها يا رسول الله Let me go talk to her mom. All right, like let me go consult her mom, ya Rasool Allah. Can you imagine the Prophet (ﷺ) is sitting in the living room.
He goes to talk to his wife. And he says, the Prophet (ﷺ) is here to propose marriage. And she cuts him off and says, amazing,
mashallah, you know, what a ni'mah, what a karamah, what an honor, what a blessing. Of course, he can take her and everything is for Rasool Allah (ﷺ). It's the most exciting day in the world for this household. And he said,
no, it's not for him. إنه ليس يخطبها لنفسه (ﷺ) It's not for him. قال إنما يخطبها لجلي بيب That he's here proposing for Julaybib.
So they know who Julaybib is. فقالت أجلي بيب أجلي بيب She starts to scream out. The Prophet (ﷺ) can hear her. All right, she starts to scream out. And she says, لا لعمر الله
She says, I swear by Allah, لا نزوجه We're not going to marry our daughter to Julaybib. Like what an insult. This went from the greatest blessing to suddenly becoming like ihana, like he's insulting us. Right?
Until what happens? The girl herself comes out. And she overheard her mom screaming at the dad. The Prophet (ﷺ) can hear it from the living room. And she says,
Like who's coming to propose Julaybib? Who's coming on his behalf? فقالت رسول الله (ﷺ) It's the Prophet (ﷺ) but that's aside from the point. Julaybib, like she starts to, she says, no, no, no.
The daughter, she says, أتردون على رسول الله (ﷺ) أمره؟ Are you going to turn away the Prophet (ﷺ)? ادفعوني إليه فإنه لن يضيعني
Marry me to him because the Prophet (ﷺ) would not lose me. He would not let me go to waste. Subhanallah. What a woman. What a beautiful perspective.
Right? Like if the Prophet (ﷺ) is proposing on someone's behalf, I don't care who it is. By the way, the same words that Hajar (عليها السلام) said when Ibrahim (عليه السلام) turned away,
أَا اللَّهُ أَمَرَكَ بِهَذَا Did Allah command you to do this? إِذَا لَن يُضَيِّعْنِي Allah will not lose me. So no, the Prophet (ﷺ) is not going to lose me. He knows what he's doing. Subhanallah, the ulama mention
that this is one of the explanations of and some of the ulama mention potentially سَبَبَ النُّزُول or one of the reason for revelation or one of the cases that's being talked about
وَمَا كَانَ لِمُؤْمِنٍ وَلَا مُؤْمِنَةٍ إِذَا قَضَى اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمْرًا أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُمُ الْخِيَرَةُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ It is not befitting for a believing man or a believing woman when Allah and the Messenger (ﷺ) say something for them to still have a choice in the matter.
Now by the way, the Prophet (ﷺ) would not force marriages. He would not. It was understood in Madinah. Like if they said no, the Prophet (ﷺ) would just walk away. He tried. He tried to, I mean, the whole story of Mughith and Barira, like so many times the Prophet (ﷺ) would say,
look, I'm coming as a shafi' I'm coming to intercede on behalf of someone. And this is so beautiful. I mean, the Prophet (ﷺ) being your guy to intercede on your behalf, to propose on your behalf. What an amazing honor in and of itself.
And the Prophet (ﷺ) would do so on behalf of those who would not have the whole, you know, tribal royalty around them. He (ﷺ) took that position himself. So she said,
whatever the Prophet (ﷺ) says, we're going to do it. So she told the parents, accept the proposal of the Prophet (ﷺ). So the Prophet (ﷺ), he made a du'a for her.
Qal Allahumma subba al-mahdi al-khaira sabba wa la taj'al a'ishaha kaddan kadda. It's a beautiful du'a, by the way, if you want to make it for someone. Allahumma subba alaiha al-khaira sabba.
O Allah, pour good upon good upon good upon her. Wa la taj'al a'ishaha kaddan kadda. And do not make her life difficulty after difficulty. Because she said, the Prophet (ﷺ) would not lose me.
Like the Prophet (ﷺ) has got my back. So the Prophet (ﷺ) immediately made a du'a that Allah ﷻ would take care of her. That her life would be an easy life and it would not be a hard life, especially since she's married. And you got to think about tribal pressure. You got to think about the parents not being happy.
You got to think about people in society making fun of her now. Right? And she is, the implication from the hadith, a powerful woman, beautiful woman from a notable tribe. Right?
And now she's got to deal with all that talk. Right? But she still does it. And the only other story that we have about Julaybib himself (رضي الله عنه)
is then his istishad, his martyrdom. And the Prophet (ﷺ) has narrated, kaana fee maghzam lahu. He was in one of his battles. He was in one of the ghazawat.
I personally believe that this is Badr for numerous reasons. The earliness of it, the victorious spirit of it, the victorious nature of it. Right? That there's a certain calm after this battle.
And it's a ghazu, it's not an expedition. It's clearly a battle, a full-out battle. So some of the ulama said Badr, some said Uhud. It just fits Badr so much more. So it makes sense that this is really early on in Islam. Okay, really early on in Madinah.
And Allah knows best if he's from the Badriyun, if he's from the people of Badr. But even if not, the Prophet (ﷺ) goes out in a battle and takes with him the Ansar. Julaybib does not make the excuse.
So the same young man that would not hang with the men because he would be bullied and because of the harshness, did not shy away from the battlefield. Picked up a sword and went into the battlefield. Fought alongside the Prophet (ﷺ). That in and of itself says something so much about his character.
(رضي الله عنه). So the battle is over, the dust settles. The Prophet (ﷺ) starts to call out, هل تفقدون من أحد? Is anyone missing anyone?
So all the heads of the sub-tribes, they start to call out. They look around, they count their people. The tribe of so-and-so. Banu so-and-so says, Alhamdulillah, we have all of our men. Right? هل تفقدون أحد?
Like imagine the Prophet (ﷺ) going tribe by tribe and saying, are you missing anyone? Are you missing anyone? Are you missing anyone? Right? And all the sub-tribes are looking around, they're doing a head count. Alhamdulillah, we're not missing anybody. Right?
And the spirit of Badr, obviously, was just an overwhelming victory. Very few shuhada that we have of Badr. So هل تفقدون أحد? Are you missing anyone? نعم فلانا وفلانا وفلانا.
So one group said, yes, we're missing this person, this person, this person. Another group said the same. And as the Prophet (ﷺ) finished going through the tribes, he said هل تفقدون من أحد? Are you missing anyone? They said no.
قال لكني أفقد جليبيبا. He said, but I'm missing Julaybib. SubhanAllah. I mean the masjid, one thing. The marketplace, peace and ease, another thing.
But in battle, the head of the army, and I'm missing Julaybib. Like that's my family. I'm missing Julaybib. You can imagine the shock, the surprise.
Wow. Okay. Not Banu Hashim. Julaybib. I'm missing Julaybib. So they went to look for his body.
So the Prophet (ﷺ) says فَاطْلُبُوهُ Everyone go look for Julaybib. Let's go look for Julaybib. فَطُلِبَ فِي الْقَتْلَةِ فَوَجَدُوهُ إِلَى جَنْبِ سَبْعَةٍ قَدْ قَتَلَهُ
They found him laying on the battlefield and around him were seven men that he killed from the enemy. So قَاتَل وَقُتِل He actually, which back then, by the way, to fight and kill seven of the opposing army
is a major feat. Right? You look at the casualty counts from these battles. They're not that much. Right? Seven accounts for 10% of the قَتْلَةِ on the other side. Right?
So they found his small body with the sword next to him and they found seven men around him that were killed by his sword. And the Prophet (ﷺ) أَكَّد He confirmed (ﷺ).
He said قَتَلَ سَبْعَةً ثُمَّ قَتَلُوهُ He killed seven and then they killed him. Like subhanAllah, that young man that you would pass off. Little Jilbab killed seven of the enemy.
Courage, bravery until he was killed. And then the Prophet (ﷺ), he kneeled down above him and he said the words that were the sweetness to the ears of every Sahaba.
And every Sahabi and every person of the Ummah of Muhammad (ﷺ). What is it? He looked up to the skies and he said اللهم هذا مني وأنا منه اللهم هذا مني وأنا منه
Oh Allah, this one is from me and I am from him. This one is from me and I am from him. هذا مني وأنا منه He said it three times (ﷺ). This is next level. شهيد Right?
Prophet (ﷺ) got him personally married. And now the Prophet (ﷺ) is asking about him in battle and saying he's from my people. And now the Prophet (ﷺ) is not just saying he's from my people. هذا مني وأنا منه
He is part of me and I am part of him. And the Prophet (ﷺ), he took his body (ﷺ) and this is so profound, subhanAllah.
He was so small, the Prophet (ﷺ) scooped him up in his arms. He held him (ﷺ). And he dug his grave. حفر له ووضع في قبره And the Prophet (ﷺ) put him in his grave.
ولم يذكر غصل And the Prophet (ﷺ) did not do ghusl of him. Right? So he treated him like the full shaheed. And the Prophet (ﷺ) buried him with his own two hands. What maqam is that? What station is that in Jannah?
A man who the Prophet (ﷺ) said, هذا مني وأنا منه He is from me and I am from him. And you would have seen him. Height, no height. Looks, people called him ugly. Bullied, no tribe.
Racism, classism, poor. And all of that goes out the window with هذا مني وأنا منه He is of me and I am of him. (رضي الله عنه)
The last thing to say in his biography is actually not about him. It's about his widow now. Remember the Prophet (ﷺ) said, اللهم صب عليها خيرا صبا
ولا تجعل عيشها كدا كدا Oh Allah, pour good upon her abundantly and do not make her life hardship upon hardship. ثابت (رضي الله عنه) says,
فما كان في الأنصار أي من أنفق منها That this woman was blessed with all sorts of wealth and there was not a single widow from the Ansar
who used to give more charity than her. Who's the special woman? We don't even have a Julaybib equivalent. Allah knows best. But Allah azza wa jalla knows her. And the lesson of course, subhanAllah,
is so profound. But if Allah azza wa jalla knows you, then it doesn't matter who else knows you. And the rank of these people and the Prophet (ﷺ) said, it may be that a person is
أشعث dusty, disheveled, turned away from people's doors. لو أقسم على الله لأبر But if that person were to take an oath upon Allah azza wa jalla, Allah would honor that person. Allah would honor that person's oath
out of how much reverence Allah سبحانه وتعالى has for that person. And Julaybib (رضي الله عنه) is certainly one of those people. May Allah azza wa jalla send his peace and blessings upon our Messenger (ﷺ). رحمة للعالمين
May Allah سبحانه وتعالى allow us to be gathered under the throne of the Most Merciful and with the one who was sent as the Most Merciful في الفردوس الأعلى (ﷺ) May Allah سبحانه وتعالى open our hearts and open our eyes and open our minds to his people,
to his Awliya amongst us and allow us to direct our honor towards them. And may Allah azza wa jalla write us down from his Awliya while we are alive. And may Allah سبحانه وتعالى write us down amongst the shuhada when he takes us, those who are always alive.
May Allah سبحانه وتعالى allow us to build in this masjid, in this community, what resembles the masjid and the community of the Prophet (ﷺ). May Allah azza wa jalla not allow us to lose sight of the people that were like the woman that cleaned the masjid, Umm Mahjan
or Zahir from the outside or Julaybib who is bullied and turned away from the inside. May Allah سبحانه وتعالى allow us to elevate those who are elevated in his sight. May Allah سبحانه وتعالى forgive us for our shortcomings. اللهم آمين جزاكم الله خيرا وصلي الله وسلم وبركا
على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين May Allah سبحانه وتعالى forgive us for our shortcomings.
