  • Religious and Social Leadership As the Tribesmen of Arabia, the Jews Of
    CHAPTER ONE RELIGIOUS AND SOCIAL LEADERSHIP As the tribesmen of Arabia, the Jews of Medina drew their leadership from the more dominant clans among them. Their community leaders were judges, military commanders, and those who ruled on halakhic matters. A study of “the occasions of revelation” (asbāb al-nuzūl) in Islamic literature reveals that the Jewish leaders in Medina often provoked Muḥammad with questions on religious issues. As a result, they were referred to as the “people of the question” (aṣḥāb al-masʾala).1 A reflection of the numer- ous questions that the Jewish sages in Medina asked Muḥammad exists in the following saying, which indirectly presents the Jews as a trigger for the revelation of many verses of the Qurʾān: “[Much of] the Qurʾān was revealed because of the questions they (i.e., the Jewish leaders in Medina) posed to him (i.e., Muḥammad)” (kāna al-Qurʾān yanzilu fīhim fīmā yasʾalūna ʿanhu).2 1. The Leaders of the Jewish Tribes of Medina ʿAbd al-Malik b. Hishām (d. 833 CE) records a list of the Medinan Jew- ish leaders of every Jewish tribe in Medina.3 Many of these leaders are reported to have been killed during the Muslim-Jewish conflicts in Med- ina and Khaybar. The leaders of the strongest Jewish tribe in Medina, the Banū al-Naḍīr, were the brothers from the Abū al-Ḥuqayq family: Sallām, the richest merchant in the Ḥijāz, and al-Rabīʿ together with the three brothers from the Banū Akhṭab family: Ḥuyayy, Judayy and Abū Yāsir. In 625 CE, after the Banū al-Naḍīr surrendered to the Muslims, these two families along with others, moved to Khaybar where their relatives lived.

  • Journal of Religion & Society
    Journal of Religion & Society Volume 9 (2007) The Kripke Center ISSN 1522-5658 Muhammad’s Jewish Wives Rayhana bint Zayd and Safiya bint Huyayy in the Classic Islamic Tradition Ronen Yitzhak, Western Galilee College, Israel Abstract During his life, the Prophet Muhammad (570-632) married 12 different wives among whom were two Jewish women: Rayhana bint Zayd and Safiya bint Huyayy. These two women were widows whose husbands had been killed in wars with Muslims in Arabia. While Rayhana refused to convert to Islam at first and did so only after massive pressure, Safiya converted to Islam immediately after being asked. Rayhana died a few years before Muhammad, but Safiya lived on after his death. Classic Islamic sources claim that the Muslims did not like Rayhana because of her beauty and so made an issue of her Jewish origin, with Muhammad being the only one to treat her well. After Muhammad’s death, Safiya lived among his other wives in Mecca, but did not take part in the political intrigues at the beginning of Islam, in contrast to the other wives, especially the most dominant and favorite wife, Aisha. Introduction [1] According to Islamic tradition, the Prophet Muhammad married 12 different wives and had even more concubines. The custom of taking concubines was widespread in ancient times and therefore also was practiced in Arabia. Concubines were often taken in the context of war booty, and it seems that this is the reason for including in the Qur’an: “(you are forbidden) the married women, but not the concubines you, own” (Q 4:24; al-Qurtubi: 5.106).

The book discusses in detail the religious rulings concerning Muslim spies working for "the vicious Crusader campaign that is launched by the United States and its allies against Muslims and Islamic countries." The book contains an introduction by Ayman al-Zawahiri, Al-Qa'ida's second in command, who emphasizes the importance of the topic of the book and praises Al-Libi's "valuable, serious, scientific, and practical research on the Islamic judgment on spying." In the book, Al- Libi discusses in extensive detail all religious rulings concerning Muslim spies, emphasizing that they are "apostates" and therefore should be killed as they disclose "the shortcomings of Muslims." He also warns of their danger, saying: "One single piece of information transmitted to them, by one of their spies, is able to exasperate spirits, honor, and possessions in a way that thousands of their mobilized soldiers cannot do." The book was released and published by the Al-Fajr Media Center.

  • Created by Iman Bendjedidi For
    Created by Iman Bendjedidi for www.ImansHomeschool.wordpress.com Created by Iman Bendjedidi for www.ImansHomeschool.wordpress.com A man from Bani Israel called out to announce the arrival of the Prophet (saas). When the people heard the call they all stopped what they were doing and rushed to line the streets of Madinah. Many of the new Muslims of Madinah had never even met the Messenger of Allah (saas). Out in the distance of the hot desert, two shapes appeared heading towards the city of Madinah. At first the people mistook Abu Bakr for the Prophet (saas) until the kind-hearted, noble companion covered the Prophet (saas) with his own cloth to protect him from the blazing sun. The Prophet (saas) stayed for the first few days in a place called Quba where he built the very first Masjid of Islam with his own hands. He then rode his camel to the centre of Madinah. Allah guided the camel until she came to rest on her knees. The place where she stopped belonged to two orphans called Suhail and Sahl. It was here that the Prophet (saas) built his Masjid and his home. Created by Iman Bendjedidi for www.ImansHomeschool.wordpress.com The Messenger of Allah (saas) soon became the leader of Al-Madinah. The Muhaajiroon and the Ansar were true brothers in Islam. The Ansar were so kind and generous that they shared their wealth and property with the Muhaajiroon. The Muslims were now able to live freely in peace. It was at this time that the Prophet (saas) drew up the first political constitution which enjoined a pact of security for the people of Madinah.

    The Battle of Khaybar 7 A.H. ۡ ۡ ۡ ٰ وعدكم اﷲ مغا ِنم ك ِثﲑ ًۃ تاخذونها فعجل ل ُك ْم ه ِذ ٖھ َ َ َ ُ ُ ُ َ َ َ َ َ َ ُ ُ َ َ َ َ َّ َ َ “Allah has promised you abundant spoils (of war) which you will attain and He has hastened for you this (booty of Khaybar).” [Surah Fatah 20] As he was returning from Hudaybiyyah, Surah Fatah was revealed upon Rasulullah . In this Surah Allah Ta’ala assured the Muslims in general and the people of the pledge in particular that they will be triumphant in a number of battles and they will capture enormous spoils of war. As an immediate reward for this pledge that they had taken, Allah Ta’ala had bestowed upon them victory over Khaybar and the conquest of Makkah, which they had not as yet acquired, but would acquire soon. In future they would surmount a number of victories, the knowledge of which only Allah Ta’ala has. In this verse ‘He has hastened for you this’ the reference is to the conquest of Khaybar. Similarly, in the previous verse, ‘And He rewarded them with a near victory.’ This near victory refers to the conquest of Khaybar. Rasulullah returned from Hudaybiyyah to Madinah where he remained for Zul- Hijjah and the beginning of Muharram. During this period, Rasulullah was commanded to launch an attack against Khaybar where the treacherous Jews resided who had betrayed the Muslims by inciting the disbelievers of Makkah against them in the battle of Khandaq (trench).

  • The Miracle of the Poisoned Sheep
    THE MIRACLE OF THE POISONED SHEEP By Imam Raouf Zaman In an e-mail, someone who claims to be a Roman Catholic challenged me to prove that the Prophet, peace be on him, was a true prophet. He cited some hadiths of the Prophet’s being poisoned by a Jewess and argued that they show that he was not. We exchanged emails for weeks. I am making this available to the public so that every Muslim can be aware of such attacks and equip himself with the appropriate answers. Apparently he is not aware that the official Roman Catholic position for many years has been not to challenge but to engage in constructive dialogue with other religions. However, since he cited the incident of the poisoned sheep, which took place after the Battle of Khaybar, I responded with the facts below to show that the incident contains several miracles and at the same proves the truthfulness of the Prophet, peace be on him. There are a number of hadiths on the poisoning incident but here are the ones he quoted. 1. Narrated Abu Hurairah: would accept a present, but would not accept alms (sadaqah). And (ﷺ ) The Messenger of Allah Wahb bin Baqiyyah narrated to us, elsewhere, from Khalid, from Muhammad ibn Amr said on the authority of AbuSalamah, and he did not mention the name of Abu Hurairah: The Messenger .(used to accept presents but not alms (sadaqah (ﷺ ) of Allah This version adds: So a Jewess presented him at Khaybar with a roasted sheep which she had .ate of it and the people also ate (ﷺ ) poisoned.
