 In the name of Allah, the Lord of Mercy, the giver of mercy and prayers and blessings be on his beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW. The companion that I get to talk about today, Alhamdulillah, is a woman by the name of Lubava bint Al-Harith, radiallahu anha. So I'm just going to talk about her name for a second. So Lub is the essence or the core of something. And I remember as a child, anytime my mom would be doing something, my mom wants me to stop, she'd shoot me this look. And she would quote this line to me and it says, Certainly the person with intellect, with a core that is grounded, can understand from just a sign. And I knew that that meant that I was going to stop doing whatever I was doing, Alhamdulillah. It's funny, my brother at some point called and he's like, you know how mama would like just look at us and just stop? And I'm like, yeah. And he's like, I stared at my son, he stared right back. I don't think I'm doing it right, man. I'm like, no dude, I don't think you're doing it right. Like, what do we do? Like, practice in the mirror, like, try to figure out and do it just right. Alhamdulillah. Masha'Allah. May Allah reward my mom, Alhamdulillah, and everyone's mom. Alhamdulillah. So Lubaba bint Al-Harith, her kunya was Umm Al-Fad. And this is not something that we really do right now, but it's like you're... I don't want to say your stage name because it wasn't a stage. But it was, this is what she was known for. And it was because her eldest son was named Al-Fad. And she was known as Umm Al-Fadl, the mother of Al-Fadl. But in the Arabic language, when you would call someone Umm something or Abu something, you're actually also attributing more to them than that. And she is so deserving of this. So Fadl is more than just... It's a form of excellence. Like when we say Fadlullah, Allah SWT, Allah SWT's Fadl on us. It's not like your needs are met, it's your needs are met and then so much more. It's someone that is so generous, giving from such an endless bounty. That's what Fadl means. It's one of the highest levels of excellence, SubhanAllah. And her eldest son was named Al-Fadl and so she was known as Umm Al-Fadl, the mother of Al-Fadl. Also, she was Umm Al-Fadl not just as a mother to her son, but also in terms of her character, Ralliullah Anha. So the first thing I want you to know about her is that she was Khadija Ralliullah Anha's best friend. Which, I mean SubhanAllah, the Prophet SAW says, You have the same religion as your Khalil. And the word Khalil, it actually has the same word as khil, as deficiency. That when this person is missing, you feel like something's wrong. Right? You know how you do something, you're like, Oh, am I going to call? And then the first person you call. So she was Khadija Ralliullah Anha's best friend. And what an incredible best friend. So based on her narration, she said, I took my Shahada the same day as Khadija Ralliullah Anha. Who was the first person to become Muslim? Khadija Ralliullah Anha, that's completely agreed upon. There is zero dispute over who the first Muslim was, it was Khadija Ralliullah Anha. And she's saying I took my Shahada the first same day as my friend Khadija Ralliullah Anha. So by all accounts, she is the second woman to become Muslim. And then we don't know, was there any of the men that became Muslim before her or not? We don't actually know. So she could have been the second Muslim outside of the family, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, of course, just period. When we say the first and the second, we don't meet like, of course, his daughter Fatima Ralliullah Anha's daughter, Ruqayah Zainab, and Umqothum Ralliullah Anha, the people in the household of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Subhanallah. But outside of the house of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, she was the second woman to ever become, she was, became Muslim after her friend, Khadija Ralliullah Anha. Her husband, Al-Abbas, was the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam's uncle. He was three years older than the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. And if, those are your family friends. You know how you get married and you have couple friends? These were their couple friends. They had kids that were of similar age. They were just, Subhanallah, really, really, really close friends. My, one of my closest friends, she used to live right next door to me. We used to drink coffee together every morning. Like, we were friends, friends. And some of the narrations about her, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam used to go visit her and used to take naps at her house. That's how close they were. Like, my friend, I go drink coffee at her house. I'm like, oh, I have to do this. I'm just gonna sit on your couch. I'm gonna take a nap for like 20 minutes and I'm gonna get up. I live next door. Like, I don't need to nap on her couch. But I felt comfortable enough napping on her couch, Subhanallah. And you can imagine the Prophet Sallahu Alaihi Wasallam doing this in the house of Um Al-Fadr Ralliullah Anha. In the house of his uncle, Abbas Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam who was only actually only three years older than him. Al-Abbas Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam who was tasked with As-Sikaya wa Al-Imara Al-Hujjaj. So when people would come to Mecca from all these different places intending to visit the Ka'ba, Al-Abbas Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was actually responsible for giving them water. And they would give them water from the well of Zemzem. Does anyone know where we got the word Zemzem? Yes, someone said yes. Who came up with the name? Hajar Alaihi As-Salam. So we know the story of how she was making Dua'at. She was going back and forth between the Safa and the Marwa. She's making all this Dua'at. She's working really hard. And every time someone goes to Hajar Umrah they follow in the footsteps of our mother Hajar Alaihi As-Salam. I'm not saying this just because I'm Egyptian but she is from the land of the Nile. Palliullah Anha our mother Hajar Alaihi As-Salam. But the reason that's significant is when the water started gushing out and people started, she tried to collect it and she kept saying Zumi Zumi, collect, collect. This is where we got the word Zemzem. And the other tribes came in and they said we want a portion of the water. She says, yes, but I manage it because none of you know how to manage a water resource. I'm from the land of the Nile. I know how to manage a water resource. And when we think of Luba'ab, she is the inheritor of our mother Hajar Alaihi As-Salam. She's best friends with Khadija, but also in this role an inheritor of our foremother. Subhanallah. So something that's, I just wanted to stop for a second just talking about Mecca. Mecca was the city of our prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and Ibrahim Alaihi Wasallam. Neither one of them is actually buried in Mecca. Ibrahim Alaihi Wasallam is buried in Khalil in Palestine and the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is buried in Medina. The two people that are actually buried in Mecca that are holding down the fort are actually our mothers Hajar Alaihi Wasallam and Khadija radiullah anha. So the amount of loyalty that Luba'aba radiullah anha had to her friend Khadija was so incredible. And every time I think of her, I think of Baraka radiullah anha who, insha'Allah Dr. Rani will talk about next. She was friends with Amina and continued on being a mother to the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam long after Amna radiullah anha passed. And Luba'aba radiullah anha, if you can imagine the role Khadija radiullah anha had. After her friend passed away, that was the role that she took on. To honor her friend Khadija radiullah anha being a mother to the Ummah. We think of the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam as the father to the Ummah and Ummah had the Mu'minin, the mothers of the believers and the mothers of the Ummah. And they carried us through after the passing of the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam when you lose a parent, you rely on the other. We relied on the mothers of the believers radiullah anha. And Luba'aba radiullah anha has served a similar role to her best friend Khadija radiullah anha. So, I just, Subhanallah, I'm sorry, sister, the Saddam Mariam, the Saddam Mariam had mentioned this where she was talking about some of her in-laws. And there is a narration, wallahu alam, it's not a strong narration, but it's still a narration where the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam says al-akhawat al-mu'minat, the believing sisters. And he lists them. He says Maimouna, the wife of the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, her sister Umm Al-Fadl. So Maimouna and Umm Al-Fadl actually shared both parents. And then the other two sisters, Asmaa and Salma, the wife of, excuse me, Asmaa bint Umais, radiullah anha, who Mariam had just spoke about, and her sister, Salmaa bint Umais, who were actually, they shared a mother, but didn't share a father with Umm Al-Fadl, Luba'aba radiullah anha. So they were half sisters, Subhanallah. I just want to add that it doesn't actually end there because they had another half sister, Zainab radiullah anha, who actually married the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam in the third year of the Hijrah and passed away within a few months. Zainab bint Khuzayma radiullah anha. So she has two sisters who married the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, a half sister and a full sister, Subhanallah. The other person, she also had a younger sister named Luba'aba radiullah, Luba'aba Sughra. So they, they loved the name so much. They said Luba'aba the older and Luba'aba the younger. Luba'aba the younger was actually the mother of Khalan Waleed radiullah anha. And you're seeing, you're hearing all these family connections. Subhanallah. Those four sisters are actually part of what bound all of these leaders of Mecca together. If you think of sisterhood, we should be thinking of these four women. Subhanallah. And part of what's fascinating about sisterhood is that women in general, the way that women lead is very different from how men lead. For the men to lead, you have to have one person standing at the front and it's clear there's the person leading. With women, the leader actually stands in the middle. I remember the first time I had to lead Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, I was so scared. My friends like, I'm going to support you. I'm like, how are you going to support me? Like either you're leading or I'm leading. And she's like, I'll stand next to you. And I'm like, okay, that's, that is true. And she says hafgambik, which also means like I'll support you. But I'm like, it literally means I'm just going to stand next to you. And I'm like, well, cool. Alhamdulillah. She did stand next to me. It was very helpful. This, this is how women lead. Subhanallah. And they're raising this generation of people together. So Luba'aba radiullah became Muslim all the way at the beginning. And we know from the Seerah of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, there were three years that they were doing da'wah. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was doing da'wah in secret. And she is someone that had to keep that secret for a long time. Her husband, Abbas, did not become Muslim material years later. Subhanallah. He was actually one of the only two of the uncles of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, Hamza and Abbas, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Subhanallah. And Subhanallah that these two sisters were married to those brothers. Subhanallah. So Luba'aba radiullah becomes Muslim within the first year of the, of the, of the behalf of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, within the first year of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam receiving revelation. And then three years in the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam receives a command from the, from Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam says, And warn your closest family. So the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam hosts a family gathering at his house. He invites all of them over. And they all have this huge meal. And right as he is about to talk, mind you the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam has spoken to his family members before. They know what he's talking about. And there's one person in particular, one of his uncles, Abul Ahab, who before this point had been very supportive of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. He loved the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. He's actually the one who paid for his Aqeeqah. You know when the child was born and someone donates the animal and has the dinner and all like Abul Ahab actually did that. And initially when the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam told him about Islam, he actually is like, yeah, this is a cool thing. And then he looked and in a slave demand, he said, me and him will be equal. I don't want what you're selling. Imagine how hurtful that is. It was really, it was literally his arrogance that got him. May Allah protect us from arrogance. And may Allah protect us from ever looking at another human being and saying, I'm better than them. Because that destroyed Abul Ahab. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam invites everyone over. Before he can get a word out, Abul Ahab stands up. He says, if we don't stop him, all of the Arabs are going to fight us. And he ruins the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam's dinner. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam will go home. He calls another dinner. Lubab A.R. is there. La Abbas A.R. is there. She's part of the family. She's probably helping her friend Khadija A.R. She's her best friend. Every time my best friend hosted a huge dinner, I was there cooking with her. This is what your friends do. They had another one. Everyone comes over before they finish the meal to pre-empt Abul Ahab. The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam starts calling to his family. He tells them, if I'm going to lie to anyone, I wouldn't lie to you. You're my people. You're my family. And Subhanallah La Abbas A.R. He turned away. He didn't assault the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, but he wasn't ready. And we know this famous moment where Ali A.R. He says, I'm going to do it. He was 10 years old. Subhanallah. We talked about Asmaa A.R. and converting when she was 11. How many young people in our community are like, oh, what do they know? Oh, what did Ali A.R. know? Again, don't be the person that dismisses Ali A.R. May Allah protect us from ever being that. But she's there. She's a witness to all of these things. Finally, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam stands on the mountain of Saffa. He calls out to everyone. And again, Abul Ahab is the one who insults the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. And Subhanallah. He said, he told the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, tabban naka sa'ir al-yaw. May you be cursed the rest of the day. And the Quran was revealed, may the hands of Abul Ahab become cursed. Subhanallah. May Allah protect us from that. Which, I mean, you insult the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. It's a short surah. So like five year olds in the ummah are learning it till the day of judgment. Do not mess with the Prophet. Like, don't ever do that Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. But she's a witness to all of these things. And all of these things are happening in front of her eyes. There are people that have left. Subhanallah. There was a moment where we know when the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was a young child, when after the passing of his mother and the passing of his grandfather, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, his grandfather asked his uncle, Abul Mutalib, to take care of him. And he, in fact, lived in the house of Abul Mutalib. And then at some point, Abul Mutalib became so overwhelmed. He had 10 children. He couldn't support all of his children. So, Al-Abbas and the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said, let's take some of his children and take care of all of their needs and all of their finances. And that's actually how Sayyidina Ali, ended up in the house of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Jaffa, we talked about, who was married to his wife, his Asmaa, he grew up in the house of Al-Abbas, where Lubaba was a mother to him. He wasn't her biological child, but she raised him in her own house. And we know that Jaffa, was the closest person to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam in looks and in characters. Subhanallah. This was the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam telling him this, by the sixth year, since the beginning of the revelation, now at this point, the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam in his words, the Quran that he was reciting and the truth that he was giving people became so powerful, they decided they're going to boycott them. And mind you, when they're boycotting them, they're not boycotting the Muslims. The majority of the Muslims, some of the Muslims ran away to Abyssinia. In modern day Ethiopia, some of the Muslims, which Subhanallah Najash is the first king to ever become Muslim. Subhanallah. Some of them are hiding their Islam. They can't go anywhere. And then the entire family of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam gets forced into a place called Shah-e-Bani Qalb. And they were between like, between the mountains, no one was allowed to trade with them. And the majority of them I want to point out were not Muslim. They were standing on principle. They were not actually Muslim. And you can imagine the guilt the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam is feeling. His entire family is getting pushed out. Can you like, his uncle made him sleep in a different place every night. Out of fear that someone would betray him and sell him out from hunger. In the midst of all of this, Lubaba is witnessing her best friend, Khadija, Rabiullah, and I get weaker and weaker. And Subhanallah, everyone's really struggling. And it was actually then that Allah gifted her, her son, Abdullah bin Al-Abbas, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Can you imagine being the person that is bringing this joyous news to the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam? And I want to point out that her son, Abdullah bin Al-Abbas, they call him, Hibra, Hadi, Al-Ummah. He is the scholar of the Ummah, which I mean, wow, he's the scholar of the Ummah. She made dua that Allah gifted him knowledge. And he was the one that carried on the legacy of so much of the family of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. He carried on the legacy of Hadith. There's so many stories about him that when the, he would like, the Sahaba, the elder Sahaba, they said, they, he said, he realized he told his friends, he's like, the Sahaba are starting to pass away. I need to go ask them stuff. So he goes sleep in front of their house. The Sahaba, he'd open his door in the morning. He'd find Abdullah bin Al-Abbas like sleeping in front of his door. Subhanallah. That was her son. And this is the moment when he was born, giving hope to the Ummah. And when he was born, we talked about this idea of tahneek, where you, you take the date. They didn't have a date. Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam took his saliva, he put it inside of the mouth of Abdullah bin Al-Abbas, Abdullah bin Al-Abbas, his newborn child, the son of Luba, Abdullah bin Al-Abbas. Subhanallah. Alhamdulillah, the boycott is lifted. The next year is actually called the Year of Sorrow. Because Khadija, Abdullah bin Al-Abbas passes away. And the uncle of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was protecting him, passes away. So two things happened. The protection of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam moved on to Al-Abbas, to his other uncle. So again, even though he was not Muslim, he was protecting the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. And can you imagine what Lubaba took from her friend Khadija? To continue protecting, she was known when you are stuck in Mecca, and you can't get out when you're Muslim, and you need help that Lubaba, Rada Allah, is the person that you go to. And everyone knew this. This is what she was known for, out of loyalty to her friend Khadija, Rada Allah, Subhanallah. When the time of the hijra comes, she's Muslim. She can't leave. Her husband is not Muslim. Her Islam is a secret. And even Abdullah bin Abbas Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, he said, My mother and I were from those who were oppressed in Mecca, that couldn't leave. But she was given a task by the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam to protect everyone else that was stuck in Mecca, that also couldn't leave. And she did this with loyalty for years. And it's one thing to be like, Masha Allah, we talked about the people that went to Abbasini, they're the people of the two hijra. Lubaba, Rada Allah, was stuck in Mecca, in the center of it all. Watching them raise an army against the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. During the battle of Badr, her husband, Abbas, was actually forced into the battle against the Muslims. And she's watching him go to join an army to fight the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Like imagine what she is going through. As she's witnessing this, Subhanallah, the Muslims, we know the Muslims won in Badr. The Meccans had never imagined that. They were undefeated. Badr was such like blew everybody's minds. People could not unfathom. Like actually, Subhanallah, the Quran calls it Yom Al-Fulqad. It is the day where truth has become evidence, Subhanallah, in the battle of Badr. So the battle of Badr happens. The disbelievers are running back to Mecca. And there's one, only one leader of Mecca that didn't leave with them. He was a coward. And his name is, we talked about him already. Who's the coward that didn't go? Abu Lahab. He paid someone else to go on his behalf. He's like, you owe me a debt. Go to this battle. I don't want to go. So he's the only leader of Mecca that didn't go. And Subhanallah, the Muslims win such a resounding victory that now there are people that are just running, trickling back into Mecca. It's not a celebratory army that's coming back with a parade or anything like people are just running back into Mecca. So they run back into Mecca and everyone's saying, we lost, we lost. But I was just like, wait, what? What are you talking about? More and more people kept coming in until finally a man came in and Abu Lahab held him. He's like, tell me what happened? And he started describing the battle to him. He told him there were these men that were wearing all white. They were on horses that were between the heavens and the earth. He's describing the angels. And he said they would strike someone and the wound wouldn't be red. It would be green. And Subhanallah, there was a, there was a a mullah and enslaved a man that was living in her house. Who was also Muslim. And his Islam was a secret. He started, he couldn't contain himself. He's like the angels, the angels. Abu Lahab was furious. Took this man. He started to beat him. Like even the narration said he was literally on top of him hitting him. And I want you to picture this because who has power in that moment? Abu Lahab does. Who has the clout and the authority in that moment? Abu Lahab does. And I don't mean to like in America, we all know this. If you see an officer standing over a man beating him, who has the power in that moment? How terrifying is it to stand up to that person who clearly has no problem using all of their power and all of their authority to physically harm someone. Luwada, picked up one of the poles of the tent, which I can't even imagine like the adrenaline that she must be going through her body and the physical strength that she had. She went and she whacked Abu Lahab on the head. That was the only way to get him off. You know, when someone's crazed and won't let go, she knew it and she whacked him. Yeah. Oh, she has a boss lady and she told Abu Lahab because you think because the Abbas is not here that you can do this to a member of our household. I want you to also understand in that position she's also a member of the Abbas's household. Clearly Abu Lahab had no problem beating anyone in the house of the Abbas and she took that stand anyway. It's one thing when it's subhanallah because now we watch all these videos. You were unfortunately there's some horrendous videos that you witness and there are other videos where you see another cop that stood up to a cop and said, Hey, we're not doing this. This was another person that stood up and said, I'm just as vulnerable as him as I'm going to stand up for him anyway. Within seven days Abu Lahab had passed away not from that hit but actually from an infection that he got from it. So even though Lubab al-Ghalan was not part of the battle of bed the remaining leader of Mecca that was fighting the Prophet's life she's actually the one that got him. And she got him defending another person Subhanallah someone that Mecca had decided was was vulnerable enough and not worth fighting for Subhanallah she stood up and fought them Subhanallah by the third year of the hijra that's the point where her sister, her half sister, Zayna bint Khuzayma married the Prophet's As-Salam after her husband was murdered and within a few months she passed away by the fifth year of the hijra all this she stuck in Mecca everybody's like all the stuff is happening now Sul-Hurdebi they're coming they're doing they're creating this treaty with the Prophet's As-Salam they were coming to do Umrah they get sent back from the Umrah they sign the treaty by the sixth year of the hijra they're doing something called Umrat al-Qadah where the year after they came back to do their Umrah during that Umrah everyone in Mecca emptied out because they didn't even want to witness the Prophet's As-Salam coming in all of his glory they actually started sorry, I don't know how much time do we have Okay, Alhamdulillah they started this rumor about the Muslims they're like oh they've gotten diseased and now they're sick in Medina and they're not okay do you has anyone how many people have been to Umrah? few people you know that part in the Sa'a where there's like the the green lights and people run faster that was the only part that the disbelievers could see them the Muslims doing their Sa'a so the Prophet's As-Salam told them in this portion I need you to run faster and that's why we run faster of like oh you're calling us sick we're doing our Sa'a and we're running in the Sa'a like man we're really strong Subhanallah but the Lubaba and the Abbas they were still living in Mecca and her sister Maymuna was actually living in her house until the Prophet's As-Salam came and proposed to her and that's actually where the wedding happened it happened in those three days in Mecca and the Abbas and the Lubaba were actually the ones who hosted this wedding where she is her full sister Maymuna is marrying the Prophet's As-Salam and she was the last woman to actually marry the Prophet's As-Salam who was the last of the mothers of the believers Subhanallah in the eighth year of the Hijrah that's how long it took finally Alhamdulillah the Abbas became Muslim he became Muslim he took a Shahada he decided to do Hijrah he is actually counted as the very last Muhajir because for you to be a Muhajir you have to you have to take your Shahada and go towards the Prophet's As-Salam before the conquest of Mecca he leaves Mecca with the intention of joining the Prophet's As-Salam and lo and behold the Prophet's As-Salam the Sahaba are all just outside of Mecca now coming for the conquest of Mecca Subhanallah so the Prophet's As-Salam comes in they conquer Mecca and the Prophet's As-Salam there's so many moments like it wasn't just her it was her and a few other people that the Prophet's As-Salam As-Salam the As-Salam she's like you've been with these people for a long time who are they? like there are some important dignitaries it's this or it's that he says we're remembering the good old days of Khadija he's coming home to his house where Khadija Rabi'Allah was buried it's now a decade later this was her friend and the Prophet's As-Salam is just excited to see her Subhanallah after that moment she actually her and Abbas and their whole family actually joins the Prophet's As-Salam in Medina and he was in those last two years of them of the life of the Prophet's As-Salam when they're living in Medina that we now get all of the narrations about her and her interactions with the Prophet's As-Salam she narrates and she narrates actually a few hadith from him and her son Abdullah bin Abbas Abdullah who's known as a narrator of hadith he actually narrates from his mother Lubaba Rabi'Allah Um Al-Fatl there are two narrations one of them that I think is hilarious so when Al-Husayn Rabi'Allah and the grandson of the Prophet's As-Salam was born Luaba actually nursed him so she was a nurse mom to Al-Husayn Rabi'Allah and she was carrying the baby and she goes to the visit the Prophet's As-Salam she hands the Al-Husayn Rabi'Allah to the Prophet's As-Salam and this is just funny because it's I don't know human and then Al-Husayn Rabi'Allah over the Prophet's As-Salam I mean they're just normal human everyday things babies do this she tells the Prophet's As-Salam you know if you go change I can I can wash it for you this is actually where we get the Fikr ruling where the Prophet's As-Salam says for a new born boy you can actually just sprinkle water on it it doesn't ruin your tahara but for for if it's a new born girl then you actually have to wash the garment and there's yeah I'm not gonna get into the Fikr that because it's too long Abdullah but I just think it's really fascinating SubhanAllah again it's everyday things the reason we know how to make us is because her sister my moon is the one that told us all day long like who else is going to watch the Prophet's As-Salam make us all have to be his wife the narration was from my moon on all day long that's how we know how to make us this is the value of these women SubhanAllah she went with the Prophet's As-Salam during Hajj Wada' and during during the Hajj there were people that were having a discussion they're like is the Prophet's As-Salam fasting is the day of Arafah is he fasting is he not fasting what do we do and she knew he wasn't fasting but she did something that was very subtle and very smart she just took some milk went to the Prophet's As-Salam handed him the bowl he stopped drank the milk in front of everyone and everyone was like okay not fasting that's how we know that ruling and the reason I mentioned how she did it is in that subtlety we might miss that it was a woman's wisdom that gave us this ruling no one when you read the fukh banan lubaba radiullah has the reason we don't like she's not necessarily listed in those books but we know it was her wisdom that did this just because we don't know the stories and the women and our mothers and our four mothers that came before us doesn't mean that Allah did not see them I remember going to my teacher Allah alhamdu shaykh ayyum I would get so frustrated about things he's like why do you care Allah knows I'm like oh but she asked someone's taking credit for blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah and I'd get so mad and he's like why do you care Allah knows I need Allah to know I don't need everybody else to know I just think it's so beautiful subhanallah there's another how much time do I have okay all right alhamdulillah there was one of my favorite narrations from the time where the prophet because part of this is lubaba radiullah and besides making dua for her son Abdullah al-Abbas is she's now taking him to actually have access to the prophet say well if you're if you're on campus welcome Halqa on Thursday is this hadith heads up but al-Abbas Allah and he's saying one of the days where I was riding with the prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam they're famous like can you imagine like and then we were driving and I was riding shotgun and the prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam was driving you know you know as you do just riding with the prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam and the prophet sallallahu alayhi sallam looks at him he says oh young man I'm going to teach you these words selling him like watch attention pay attention watch this this is important listen up and he tells him to jidh be facing you will will like personally be taken care of you if if you are rely rely on Allah and know that if the whole Ummah got together with something to benefit you with something they can't benefit you with something except that Allah has already pre-written for you and if they all get together to harm you with something they can't harm you with something except that Allah has already written for you. The pens have been lifted and the ink is dried. SubhanAllah. Her being in Medina means that we have this hadith so her son can learn it from the Prophet's, her son was actually an advisor he was 13 years old when the Prophet's I sent him passed away again we can't dismiss the young people SubhanAllah. So much okay way too much I'm just gonna try to wrap up. Lubaba Rally Allah passed away during the time of Sayyidina Usman Rally Allah continued to be a support for different people in the Ummah Rally Allah. I just wanted to stop in for a second and point out that Hassan Abdullah ibn Abbas was known for his knowledge in the Ummah. Her nephew Khalilul Waleed Rally Allah was known for his military might and in one of the narrations from the narration I don't know what's happening with the microphone. Well we should have done that a long time ago. Safiyan ibn Ayayna in one of the narrations says that the women of Hilal they mothered so many of these leaders of Makkah some of them had political power some of them had military power some of them had knowledge which in and of itself is power and she's the mother of the one that actually had the knowledge and I want to like SubhanAllah this is a form of power we don't realize the power that knowledge gives us it can make every like an entire like our communities are made of people if we change our behaviors and all become different that the ayah says Allah doesn't change what is with the people until they change what is within themselves we look at these huge systems how are we supposed to end systemic racism system was made by people will change the people and will change the system SubhanAllah that's how the system has actually become changed that I don't know if that was a cheer but who and Hamdulillah Allah okay wait I'm not done yet last thing I just want to say that community building in and of itself is a form of knowledge and this is the knowledge that Luba about her the one who is known of her wisdom the one whose name actually means the core in the essence the calb this is what her name means that is the wisdom that she she possessed that a loss panel gifted her community building is a form of knowledge it's a form of scholarship when we talk about scholarship a lot of the times we think who can quote all the deformer that have been this and that knows all the delay that is a form of scholarship community building is also a form of scholarship and I say this because sometimes you walk into you go into different Muslim spaces and a lot of the times it's unthanked women that are the ones that are actually building the community that are calling who's who's in trouble let me call her who needs this let's figure out let's what's happening it's usually the women I want us to know that that in and of itself is a form of knowledge it's a form of and it's a form of scholarship and that was the scholarship of our mother Luba but I'll do a lot of law like this panel law she inherited it from her friend Khadija to be the mother of the one of the mothers of the whether she birth that child or not subhan Allah may Allah accept from us all the male law allow us to leave along the footsteps of sayyidah Luba but only a lot
