This was a beautiful video that exemplified the beauty and ni3mah of Islam. Before Islam girls were treated viciously and disrespected. They were viewed as curse from Allah. She was viewed as a loss. Allah says in Surah Nahil and said when they ( the ignorant) were told of having daughters they would be full of shame and grief and embarrassment. They ignorant would bury their daughters in shame. In surah takweer Allah, condemned the behavior of burying daughters, it is mentioned that the daughter will rise on the DOJ and defend her self against her father.
It is narrated in many ahadeeth that some of the Sahaba killed their daughters before Islam. A man by the name Kays ibn 3asam, came to the Prophet and told him of how he killed his daughter. The prophet told him to free his slave or to donate his camels. It is narrated that a man went to the prophet and told him of the time he pushed his daughter into a well and she begged for her life more than once and he ignored her and pushed her completely. The prophet cried as he heard this and replied saying that if he could punish someone it would be that man.
Subhannallah the transition of the status of the girl after Islam is amazing. With Islam ignorance was lifted. The Prophet to cherish and respect our daughters. A man who gives birth to girls is closest to the Sunnah because the Prophet only had daughters. The Prophet says in an authentic hadeeth, who ever raises an honorable daughter will be joined with him on the DOJ and is granted Jennah. The Prophet praised having a daughter. Infancy he treated his daughters with the utmost respect. He used to get off of his seat so that his daughter Fatima can sit in his spot. He Also told her that she would be the first to join him after he dies. Even the Sahaba used to treat their daughters with care and respect. Abu Bakr r.a walked in on Ayesha RA and saw that she was sick, so he kissed her on the cheeks and said, " how are you my dear daughter."
It is true that Islam is the light in the darkness. It has freed the world of this ignorance and exemplified the importance of a girl. It is important for us to follow in the Prophets example and to love, cherish, respect our daughters because they are the educators of the future. We have to recognize that there is baraqa in having daughters. It is sad that even though we are in the 21st century there are still many cultures that degrade girls and we pray that Islam will shed light on them.
I enjoyed watching this video very much and thought it was such an amazing topic. We always hear how women are mistreated, neglected, and looked down upon in society. So, seeing how women were cherished and hearing how they should be treated was a very interesting and informative change. The stories of the Prophet and Abu Bakr and how they treated their daughters were beautiful. Personally, I loved the one that talked about how the Prophet (PBUH) was praying while holding Umamah, and how he got out of his seat for Fatima. Another point bought up that was very remarkable was that the father who shows his daughter care, love, and loyalty will be in Jannah with the Prophet (PBUH).
This was a very great and interesting topic but while watching the video I was just wondering how the peoples mentality was back then. Did they even think it through (burying their OWN daughters)?Back then when people would give birth to daughters their faces would be darkened and would be completely embarrassed because of the bad news they got. The Prophet said their is more virtue in having daughters than sons. The Prophet also said that if one has two daughters and are raised right, he will be with him in Jannah. He also said that if had one person had one, two, or even three daughters and loved and cared for them, Allah will protect them from the Hellfire. The Sahabi back then loved and cherished their daughters while the people of Jahiliyah hated and buried their daughters. An important lesson i learned from this video is that your love and care for your daughter is what might be the key for you to heaven but if you hate and bury your daughter you might never be able to achieve Jannah. Watching this video made me wonder if people today still think of or even attempt to bury their daughters alive.
This starts out with the fact that it is noticed that people still fail to recognize the blessing of having daughters. It was a part of culture that started long ago, but still is seen today. During Rasoolullah's time, the arabs were vicious to their daughters, and considered them as curses. This was the NORM, even in catholic religion as well! One of the first verses revealed to the prophet was "When the young girl that was buried alive will be asked for what sin she was killed". These arabs used to bury their daughters alive; their faces would darken when they would find out they had girls. Even the sahabah confessed to the prophet that they were guilty of burying their daughters in this age of Jahiliyah; amongst them was Qays Ibn Asim. Qays told the prophet he had buried many daughters before Islam, so he asked what he should do. The Prophet said that he should free a slave for every daughter you killed, but he only had camels, so he donated those. One of the saddest stories that was mentioned was about the guy who told Rasoolullah that he had a daughter, and he loved her very much. He was fond of her, and she was fond of him. he had not buried her, even as she grew. Soon, she was beautiful and grown, and the man decided to bury her because it was the norm. He told her to put on her most beautiful dress and told her they were going to a celebration, but later he pushed her into a well, and she called out to him. He loved her, but he was won over by shaytan. The Rasool said "if i could punish anyone in jahiliyah, i would punish you" Who could do this?! We should cherish our daughters. Imam Ahmed said to a person who only had girls said that he should be very happy because he was closest to the sunnah! The prophet said there was more virtue in having daughters. IN a hadeeth he states: "Whoever raises two daughters the right way. he will be with me on the Day of Judgment". We need to have the mentality that these daughter will carry on the legacy and provide good deeds for the parents. The Prophet treated his daughters with such compassion, he would give his daughter, Fatima, his seat. The Prophet would hold Ummamah while praying. A DAUGHTER IS NOT A LOSS. A daughter is a blessing, and should be treated as such.
I love how in the video shiekh Omar talks about how the christians, catholics, etc. had it in their scriptures that having a baby girl is a loss. Then comes our beloved prophet Muhammad (saw) and tells us to cherish our daughters. This just shows how Islam doesn't think so lowly of the female race. Its terrible how most people back then would bury their daughters because they were a "shame". Also the story when Omar (ra) tells what he did to his daughter was heart breaking. The prophet said he would punish everyone for what they did in the time of Jahiliyah but Allah has forgiven those people for that. Omar (ra) was struggling to decide weather he should let his daughter go or not because shaitaan was whispering. We should learn from the sahabah that we need to have a huge amount of compassion for our daughters. Just like Abu Bakr loved Aisha with all his heart. We shouldn't think that a daughter is a loss. Remember, a daughter can create a legacy.
Subhanallah, the amount of love I have for this video is indescribable. It is amazing how he first explains of the status of daughters in the times before the light of Islam. The men of the jahiliyah used to bury their daughters alive, and the Christians saw them as a loss. Yet, Islam is blamed to oppress the women? In fact Islam uplifted the ignorance of treatment towards daughters. The crime of burying a daughter is shown how extreme it is since one of the first Ayats revealed was the ayah in surat At-Takweer regarding the murdered daughters. The story that broke the prophet's heart as he heard it; that of the man who pushed his daughter into a well and did not heed to her pleas. Islam brings forth an immense love and respect towards daughter; the prophet said we should cherish them, and take care of the Amana of daughters that Allah has given us. There are hadiths in which the prophet said that whoever takes care of his daughter(s) and makes them happy, and has patience, and shows them mercy, Allah will shield him from the hell fire, and will be close to the Prophet (saw) as two fingers stuck together. The prophet used to also get up from his seat for Fatimah to sit down, and would hold Umamah in his arms as he prayed. Abu Bakr used to ask tenderly how she was when she was sick. These examples show the love and respect that the fathers should be providing to their daughters. Islam tells us that a daughter is not a loss and is in fact of more value than a boy and should be educated as well. Daughters should be cherished; because that daughter could be that ONE key that will tip your scale and enter you into the Paradise with Allah's immense mercy.
This video pressed upon an issue present in the Jahilliyah time and even in today's society. It is widely known that males are more preferred over females, and are somewhat seen as superior to girls. This is completely wrong, and it is essential to get this mentality out of our heads. Allah (swt) tells us through a hadith how much of a reward we get for cherishing our daughters. Whether you have one girl, or two, or three, or etc, excelling in raising and uprbringing her/them guarantees you refuge from the hellfire. On the Day of Judgment, the Prophet will be so close to those who do so. During Jahilliyah times, it was greatly frowned upon to have a daughter. You were automatically expected to get rid of her in any way possible. They tell the story of the sahabi Qays, that drowned his beloved daughter in a well even though he loved her so much. The Prophet soaked his beard from the amount of tears that ran down his face. Killing you daughters was the the only sin the Prophet did not excuse for the reverts from the Jahilliyah times, which signifies the importance of being good to your daughters.
This video focuses on how people back in Jahilliyah time used to treat their daughters so viciously and they would go to the extent of burying them alive. one of the first verses revealed to the Prophet was ayahs 8&9 in surat takwir, where the daughter will be asked 'for what reason were you killed?' In surat An-nahl, whenever one of them is given the blessing of a young girl, their faces will darken and that person is full of grief on the inside. they're embarrassed trying to hide from the people from the bad news they've gotten. they contemplate whether they should live with humiliation or bury their daughters. There's a narration which I loved where a man came to the Prophet (pbuh) and told him how he loved his daughter and she loved him back. She was growing up and becoming more beautiful, and he didn't know what to do with her because he was so attached to her. So one day, he told her to put a pretty dress on to go for a celebration at her Uncle's house. He told the Prophet (pbuh) how he pushed her into a well and she grabbed on to him and she cried. The shaytan would get the best of him and he was fighting his fitra. and she said 'don't break the trust that was given to you.' the prophet (pbuh) was crying so heavily that his beard became soaked and he didn't know what to say. he said 'if i can punish anyone in Jahilliyah, it would be you' but Allah has forgave everyone for what they've done so repent to Allah. We forge that in our deen, this ignorance was lifted. the Prophet taught us to cherish our daughters. we should be pleased when Allah blesses us with one. There's a man who came to Imam Ahmed and told him how his wife only gives birth to daughters and he has three so far. Imam Ahmed told him to be happy and that he is the closest to the sunnah, because the prophet told us to always cherish our daughters. The prophet (pbuh) has said that there are more virtues to having daughters than sons. and he said 'whoever raises two daughters, and does his best to raise them, he will be with me on the day of judgement.' Another hadith, 'whoever takes care of three daughters and raises them and takes care of them, Allah will protect them and shield them from hell fire.' The prophet (pbuh) showed so much love and care for his daughters. When Fatima would walk into the room, he would leave his seat and give Fatima his space. He called Fatima into the room and whispered into her ear how he was dying and she was the first to join him in Jannah. He would also hold Umamah in his arms while he prayed. Abu Bakr walked in and Ayesha was laying there sick, and Abu Bakr sat down and kissed her on the cheek and said 'How are you, oh my dear daughter?'. Subhanallah at the ways the Sahabis would treat their daughters with love and compassion. This is how we should treat our daughters and take care of them because in the end they have much more blessings and we should follow the Prophets footsteps.
In islam we should not prefer sons over daughters and instead accept the gift allah has given us . In the past during the time of Jahilliah , many people used to feel shame or loss in having a daughter since the daughter couldn't empower the family as much as a son would.Even omar radiallahunah killed his daughter before islam, that was how common it was. The prophet was completely against favoring sons over daughtes and killing them.In islam your daughter will protect you during the DOJ if you treated them kindly and taught them hayat and the sunnah.We should try to follow in the prophets foot steps and cherish our daughters and treat women with respect just as the prophet and abu bakr did and care for them , tend to them , and love them . A man came to the prophet and told him a story that made him cry . The story was about the same man . He loved his daughter and raised her until she was a beautiful young girl , he then told her one day that she should dress for a celebration , he then took her and pushed her over into her death. Killing your daughteres at a young age is an evil custom and it will be regreted and you will be punished for it on the day of qiyahamah.So always remember to think of daughters as something that will bring you closer to the prophet .
This video made me realize how much the people of Jahilyia lacked knowledge and just did the first idea that popped into their heads. I don't understand how people would bury their own daughters alive as if it was a punishment to have a daughter from Allah. The Prophet said that whose who raise their daughters right and teach them about having hayaa will be in Jannah with the Prophet. Allah gave you the gift of having a daughter over a son and you should accept and cherish that gift. The Prophet would get out of his seat for his daughter Fatima to sit down instead. The Prophet said that the only sin he couldn't and wouldn't accept was killing your daughters because he found no reason for that. The Prophet said that a daughter was a huge blessing to the people and should be treated as one. Being good to your daughters and raising them properly will make you not enter hellfire and instead will put you in Jannah.
I learned alot of lessons in this video. The people of Jahiliya were very ignorant. They used to bury their daughters alive because they felt it was embarrassing to have them. They didn't realize how important were daughters to have. A hadith the prophet narrated says If you have three daughters or sisters and they are raised right, they will protect you from the punishment of hellfire." This shows how important daughters really are to us. In surat Takweer it says "And when the infant girl is asked for what reason was she killed" those fathers who buried their daughters alive will be asked why was she killed and they would have no excuse. On the day of Judgement those people will be punished. A man told the prophet that when his daughter was born he really loved her and he had an attachment to her. But he was to embarrassed to have her so he pushed her into a well and she called out to him. He let her go fall and he was very depressed. The Prophet was very upset so he told him while crying "If there was someone who I would punish in Jahilya it would be you." This shows how upset the Prophet was. Daughters are a very important factor in Islam.
it is very sad to see people do bad to their daughters, especially in the Jahilliyah, when the quraysh started burying their daughters because they were considered to be a curse, not a blessing. however, the people should be happy to have their daughters come to their family in this dunya. in surat takweer, the ayahs tell to the people who buried their daughters will be questioned by their own daughters for what sin they were killed for. the murderers will be scared and will not know why. the daughters, like the sons, must be cherished greatly by their parents and must not be abandoned and neglected. if this is not followed, then the person will go to Hellfire. there was a hadith saying that having three daughters will keep the family away from Hellfire. this is why daughters are a great treasure to keep in the family.
From long ago (the time of Jahillyah) to even now, people fail to see the blessings of having a daughter. The importance of a daughter was even showed when one of the first verses revealed to the society back then was about the burying of their daughters in Surah Takwir (81:9). Upon hearing the story of one daughters death from her father, the Prophet (pbuh) cried to the point his beard was soaked and told the father that if I could punish anyone it would be you; this highlights the severe consequences the dishonor these men have caused upon their daughters and her importance in Allah's (swt) eyes. In our deen, this ignorance was lifted and we are taught, through the Prophet (pbuh), to cherish our daughter.
Before the Prophets time were all in Jahiliya life. They all used to do things without thinking. The men back then used to be embarrassed when they had a daughter. So they buried them, they thought daughters were a burden. Allah has stated this incident in the Quran and in Surat al takweer. There was also a story that relates to this topic of a teacher in a class and he r student ask her why didnt she get married and she said there was once a family that had 5 daughters and when his wife got pregnant again he was hoping for a boy but another girl had been gifted to him by Allah. Then 5 years straight he had all boys and every time his wife had a boy a daughter died. And the last daughter that was alive was the teacher. And every daughter can be a sitran or a savor for her father from the hell fire. And for the Christians it was a shame to have daughters. Love your daughters they can protect you from hell fire.
This video was very surprising to me because I never realized that we live in a time of jahilya as well it may be in a different way as the companions of the prophet in the people who lived in the prophets time, but its true we do not appreciate daughters we see women as burdens to our life when a man has a women he is usually told may u be blessed with a male but why like Omar Suleiman said when we have lets try to make them from the best of women instead of not focusing and think there useless the prophet said the one his is patient with his daughter or daughters and merciful on them and raises them the right way the way of the dean they will enter jennah we should also remember how the prophet was taking care of by his daughters before he passed away he told his daughter Fatima that she will be the first to enter jennah after him in this video there was a man telling a sheikhh I have 3 girls he told congrats your the closest to the sunnah of the prophet lets not forget just because were not buring our daughters dosent mean were not acting like the jahiliya we have to get out of this mind set that males are better then females we should all be looked at the same inshallah we follow the prophets sunnah and stop being so ignorant

Wow masha Allah! Great job Rawda. Can you please choose the nex video for us from Quran weekly. I want us to get back on track with the blogs.

A DAUGHTER IS NOT A LOSS. A daughter is a blessing, and should be treated as such.

The Prophet said that the only sin he couldn't and wouldn't accept was killing your daughters because he found no reason for that. The Prophet said that a daughter was a huge blessing to the people and should be treated as one. Being good to your daughters and raising them properly will make you not enter hellfire and instead will put you in Jannah.
ReplyDeleteI learned alot of lessons in this video. The people of Jahiliya were very ignorant. They used to bury their daughters alive because they felt it was embarrassing to have them. They didn't realize how important were daughters to have. A hadith the prophet narrated says If you have three daughters or sisters and they are raised right, they will protect you from the punishment of hellfire." This shows how important daughters really are to us. In surat Takweer it says "And when the infant girl is asked for what reason was she killed" those fathers who buried their daughters alive will be asked why was she killed and they would have no excuse. On the day of Judgement those people will be punished. A man told the prophet that when his daughter was born he really loved her and he had an attachment to her. But he was to embarrassed to have her so he pushed her into a well and she called out to him. He let her go fall and he was very depressed. The Prophet was very upset so he told him while crying "If there was someone who I would punish in Jahilya it would be you." This shows how upset the Prophet was. Daughters are a very important factor in Islam.
ReplyDeleteit is very sad to see people do bad to their daughters, especially in the Jahilliyah, when the quraysh started burying their daughters because they were considered to be a curse, not a blessing. however, the people should be happy to have their daughters come to their family in this dunya. in surat takweer, the ayahs tell to the people who buried their daughters will be questioned by their own daughters for what sin they were killed for. the murderers will be scared and will not know why. the daughters, like the sons, must be cherished greatly by their parents and must not be abandoned and neglected. if this is not followed, then the person will go to Hellfire. there was a hadith saying that having three daughters will keep the family away from Hellfire. this is why daughters are a great treasure to keep in the family.
ReplyDeleteFrom long ago (the time of Jahillyah) to even now, people fail to see the blessings of having a daughter. The importance of a daughter was even showed when one of the first verses revealed to the society back then was about the burying of their daughters in Surah Takwir (81:9). Upon hearing the story of one daughters death from her father, the Prophet (pbuh) cried to the point his beard was soaked and told the father that if I could punish anyone it would be you; this highlights the severe consequences the dishonor these men have caused upon their daughters and her importance in Allah's (swt) eyes. In our deen, this ignorance was lifted and we are taught, through the Prophet (pbuh), to cherish our daughter.
ReplyDeleteBefore the Prophets time were all in Jahiliya life. They all used to do things without thinking. The men back then used to be embarrassed when they had a daughter. So they buried them, they thought daughters were a burden. Allah has stated this incident in the Quran and in Surat al takweer. There was also a story that relates to this topic of a teacher in a class and he r student ask her why didnt she get married and she said there was once a family that had 5 daughters and when his wife got pregnant again he was hoping for a boy but another girl had been gifted to him by Allah. Then 5 years straight he had all boys and every time his wife had a boy a daughter died. And the last daughter that was alive was the teacher. And every daughter can be a sitran or a savor for her father from the hell fire. And for the Christians it was a shame to have daughters. Love your daughters they can protect you from hell fire.
ReplyDeleteThis video was very surprising to me because I never realized that we live in a time of jahilya as well it may be in a different way as the companions of the prophet in the people who lived in the prophets time, but its true we do not appreciate daughters we see women as burdens to our life when a man has a women he is usually told may u be blessed with a male but why like Omar Suleiman said when we have lets try to make them from the best of women instead of not focusing and think there useless the prophet said the one his is patient with his daughter or daughters and merciful on them and raises them the right way the way of the dean they will enter jennah we should also remember how the prophet was taking care of by his daughters before he passed away he told his daughter Fatima that she will be the first to enter jennah after him in this video there was a man telling a sheikhh I have 3 girls he told congrats your the closest to the sunnah of the prophet lets not forget just because were not buring our daughters dosent mean were not acting like the jahiliya we have to get out of this mind set that males are better then females we should all be looked at the same inshallah we follow the prophets sunnah and stop being so ignorant
