The Brief B.O. the Prophet s.a.w. No. 20.

اعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
My Dear Quran Lovers,
 Let us continue to look into the brief B.O. the Prophet s.a.w. :
 When the Prophet s.a.w. began his s.a.w preaching openly to the Meccans and went to the Sacred Mosque to perform prayers according to the Religion of Prophet Abraham a.s. which was not similar to the Sholah we Muslimin are performing now because the Arch Angel, Gabriel a.s. had not taught the Prophet s.a.w. how, just yet, the Quraisy people dared not  oppose him s.a.w. personally and directly because he s.a.w and his protecting uncle were among the Quraisy nobles, and after he s.a.w. married Siti Khadijah, his s.a.w. status became higher. The Quraisy went to Abi Tolib for help to discourage and to stop the Prophet s.a.w. from preaching the Oneness of Allah, the equality of Mankind including the womenfolk. But they failed. Thence, they began to attack the Prophet s.a.w. himself. 
 A Quraisy who was very cross with the Prophet s.a.w., was Abu Jahal. One day, he said to his clique that they must not let Muhammad s.a.w. to spread his s.a.w. Teaching  of the new religion/Islam. He s.a.w. had always humiliated their Idols which they had inherited from their forefathers which they were worshipping then. Abu Jahal said, "Tomorrow, I will bring a large stone from the mountain to the Sacred Mosque and I will throw at Muhammad when he was prostrating in his prayers so that his head be cracked.".
 Then on the next day, Abu Jahal and his cliques were waiting for the Prophet s.a.w. at the Sacred Mosque with a large stone on his shoulder. Then the Prophet s.a.w. came and performed his s.a.w. Prayers. And when he s.a.w was prostrating, Abu Jahal went near the Prophet s.a.w., lifted the stone high up and was about to crush on the Prophet's s.a.w. head, he retreated in fear and turned tail. His friends followed him running and asked, "Why? What happened?". Then Abu Jahal said, "When I was about to crush his head, I saw large camel came  charging at me. I have never seen such a large camel before and I became  afraid, and I left. If not, the large camel would kill me." His cliques were amazed because they did not see the large camel which Abu Jahal said.
 After the Prophet s.a.w. had finished performing his s.a.w. Prayers, Allah revealed this Revelation that the Prophet s.a.w. conveyed to the people, "Indeed! Mankind likes to over-step the limit, He thinks he is his own master. Truly, he will return to his Lord.  Did you not see a man/Abu Jahal who was disturbing .  A servant (of God/the Prophet s.a.w.) while he was Praying.  Do you not see if he (s.a.w.) were following the right guidance.  Or he (s.a.w.) enjoins piety.  Do you not see  if he/Abu Jahal denied (Allah's guidance) and gave no heed.  Does he not aware that Allah is observing.  No! If he did not stop, We will drag him by the forelock.  Then let him call his followers.  We will call Az-Zabaniah / the Head Angel of the Hell.  No! Do not obey him/Abu Jahal. Prostrate yourself, and come nearer (to Allah). (surah 96, Al-'Alaq, verses 6 to 19)."
 Until we meet again in the next session, Insya Allah. See all of You Quran Lovers soon.
 Wassalamu alaikum w. w.
