Introduction
- Why is it so essential for us to know about the Lives of the Companions of Prophet ﷺ?
- What makes the Sahabah so unique and important?
- How did the ignorant Bedouins of Makkah become the guiding light for the Human race, the lighthouses of the sea and the twinkling stars of guidance in the sky?
- Quran and Sunnah are the two strongholds for Faith and Guidance, what better way to learn than to examine how the Companions of the Prophet derived knowledge from these sources.
- The Sahabah were the ones chosen by Allah سبحانه وتعالىٰ to be the Companions of our beloved Prophet Muhammed ﷺ. They were the ones who benefitted the most and obtained knowledge directly from the Messenger of Allah. They are mentioned in the Quran and Allah has asked Muhammed ﷺ to seek their counsel and be content in their company. Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him.
Purpose
- To learn the core values adopted by the Sahabah under the leadership of Prophet Muhammed ﷺ so that we can align our vision with the purpose and goals of our lives.
- To respect and love the Sahabah and follow in their footsteps.
What will we learn from this course?
- The lives of the Sahabah pre- and post-Islam.
- What were the situations and challenges faced by the sahabah during that era; what lessons can we learn to deal with our current situations and challenges that we face in following Islam.
- How did the sahabah endure all their trials and tribulations yet still embraced Islam gracefully .
- How Islam altered them inside and out and sculpted their characteristics.
- How Prophet ﷺ empowered them and helped them acquire the best etiquettes and mannerisms
- The evolution of the Golden Era of Islam under the Prophet’s ﷺ leadership.
- How we can regain the glory of Islam by following the Quran, Sunnah and the Companions as examplars.
