Ruins of a Jewish fortress
As-salam Alaykum!
As we approach the last 10 days of Ramadan, I pray we are constant in our remembrance of our Creator and we make the most use of our time. InshaAllah let's all pray for each other, our families, and the rest of the world that we are all guided to true Islam, that we stick firmly to it, and have barakah in our time!
Below, are pictures of ruins of a fortress wall of a Jewish tribe, Banu Nadir. When the Prophet sallalahu alayhi wa salam entered into Madinah, 3 Jewish tribes had treaties with the Muslims. Banu Nadir under leader Ka`b ibn Ashraf breached the treaty. In war, the Jews had built these types of walls so no one could come in. SubhanAllah how this concept is similar to the wall built in Israel now!
Shaykh Hamza and Imam Zaid further discussed how the prophet (saw) was forgiving in Mecca, but as a leader in Madinah, he was now in charge of people, so justice had to reign over his mercy. Many people accused that the prophet (saw) had changed when he became a leader; but this isn’t true. SubhanAllah how even in the punishment of justice, there is mercy. (ie: even with adultery, punishment can not be given until certain prerequisities have been met!)
