रुकाना पहलवान

बनी-हाशिम में एक मुश्रिक शख्स रुकाना नामी बड़ा ज़बरदस्त पहलवान था। उसका रिकार्ड था कि उसे किसी ने न गिराया था। वह एक जंगल में जिसे इज़म कहते थे, रहा करता था । बकरियां चराता था और बड़ा मालदार था। एक दिन हुजूर सल्लल्लाहु अलैहि वसल्लम अकेले उस तरफ जा निकले। रकाना ने आपको देखा तो आपके पास आकर कहने लगा ऐ मुहम्मद! तू ही वह है जो हमारे लात व उज्जा की तौहीन व तहकीर करता है। अपने एक खुदा की बड़ाई ब्यान करता है? अगर मेरा तुझ से तअल्लुक रहमी न होता तो आज मैं तुझे मार डालता । आ मेरे साथ कुश्ती कर । तू अपने खुदा को पुकार, मैं अपने लात व उज्जा को पुकारता हूं। देखें तो तुम्हारे खुदा में कितनी ताकत है? हुजूर ने फ़रमाया : रुकाना! अगर कुश्ती ही करना है तो चल मैं तैयार हूं । रुकाना यह जवाब सुनकर अव्वल तो हैरान हुआ और फिर बड़े गुरूर के साथ मुकाबले में खड़ा हो गया।

: हुजूर सल्लल्लाहु अलैहि वसल्लम ने पहली ही झपट में उसे गिरा लिया और उसके सीने पर चढ़कर बैठ गये । रुकाना उम्र में पहली मर्तया गिरकर बड़ा शर्मिन्दा भी हुआ और हैरान भी। बोला : ऐ मुहम्मद! मेरे सीने से उठ खड़ा हो। मेरे लात व उज्जा ने मेरी तरफ़ ध्यान नहीं किया। एक बार और मौक़ा दो। दूसरी मर्तबा कुश्ती लड़ें, हुजूर सीने से उठ खड़े हुए और दोबारा कुश्ती के लिए रुकाना भी उठा । हुजूर ने दूसरी मर्तबा भी रुकाना को पल भर में गिरा लिया। रुकाना ने कहा- ऐ मुहम्मद! मुझे मालूम होता है कि मेरा लात व उज्जा मुझ पर नाराज़ है और तुम्हारा खुदा तेरी मदद कर रहा है। खैर एक मर्तबा और आओ। अबकी दफ़ा लात व उज्जा ज़रूर मेरी मदद 1 करेंगे । हुजूर ने तीसरी दफ़ा की कुश्ती भी मंजूर फ़रमाई। तीसरी मर्तबा भी उसे पछाड़ दिया। अब तो रुकाना बड़ा ही शर्मिन्दा हुआ और बोलाऐ मुहम्मद! मेरी उन बकरियों में जितनी चाहो बकरियां ले लो। हुजूर ने फ़रमाया : रुकाना मुझे तुम्हारे माल की ज़रूरत नहीं। हां! मुसलमान हो जाओ ताकि जहन्नम से बच जाओ। वह बोला- या मुहम्मद! मुसलमान तो हो जाऊं मगर नफ्स झिझकता है कि मदीना और नवाह की औरतें और बच्चे क्या कहेंगे। इतने बड़े पहलवान ने शिकस्त खाई और मुसलमान हो गया।

हुजूर ने फ़रमाया : तेरा माल तुझी को मुबारक । यह कहकर आप वापस ने तशरीफ़ ले आए। इधर हज़रत अबू-बक्र व उमर रज़ियल्लाहु अन्हुमा आपकी तलाश में थे और यह मालूम करके कि हुजूर वादिए इज़म की तरफ़ तशरीफ ले गये हैं, बैचेन थे कि उस तरफ रुकाना पहलवान रहता है। मुबादा हुजूर को ईज़ा दे । हुजूर को वापस तशरीफ़ लाते देखकर दोनों हुजूर की खिदमत में हाज़िर हुए और अर्ज़ किया या रसूलल्लाह! आप उधर अकेले क्यों तशरीफ़ ले गये थे? जबकि उस तरफ़ रुकाना पहलवान जो बड़ा ज़ोर आवर और दुशमने इस्लाम है, रहता है। हुजूर यह सुनकर मुस्कुराए और फ़रमायाजब मेरा अल्लाह हर वक़्त मेरे साथ है फिर किसी रुकाना की क्या परवाह? लो उस रुकाना की पहलवानी का किस्सा सुनो! चुनांचे हुजूर ने सारा किस्सा सुनाया, सिद्दीक व फ़ारूक सुन सुनकर खुश होने लगे और अर्ज़ किया हुजूर वह तो ऐसा पहलवान था कि आज तक उसे किसी ने गिराया ही न था, उसे गिराना अल्लाह के रसूल ही का काम है।

(अबू दाऊद जिल्द २ सफा २०६)

सबक: हमारे हुजूर सल्लल्लाहु अलैहि वसल्लम हर फ़ज़्ल व कमाल के : मम्ब व मख़ज़न हैं। दुनिया की कोई ताकत हुजूर के मुकाबले में नहीं ठहर सकती। मुखालिफ़ीन के दिल भी हुजूर के फज्ल व कमाल को जानते हैं लेकिन दुनिया की खौफ़ से उसका इकरार नहीं करते।

Adventures of Sher-e-Khuda during the Ghazwa (battle of) -e – Badr

After the Hijrat of Rasul-e-Khuda ﷺ, the unbelievers of Mecca were burning with the fire of revenge, and their furry was out of control. They started to prepare themselves for the attack on Medina. One caravan of the financially empowered traders was dispatched towards Sham. The Quresh invested all their wealth with a view to trading and getting profit, which would be spent on the purchase of the material and weapons necessary for the war. During that time, some gossipers spread the rumours that the Muslims were coming to loot the traders’ caravan. As the Quresh heard this, their anger knew no bounds. An army of thousands of well-equipped warriors started moving towards Medina for the attack. This army included all the leaders of Quresh, including Abu Jahal. Only Abu Lahab could not join them due to his illness.

The Divine Message conveyed to Huzur-eAkramﷺ that he also should proceed towards facing the challenge with his three hundred thirteen warriors. Two flag-bearers one of whom was Sher-e-Khuda AlahisSalam were leading the battalion. When they reached near Badr, Huzur ﷺ asked Hazrat Ali AlaihisSalam to take some sahaabas with him and make enquiries about the conspiracies and movement of the rivals. He performed the work with high involvement and delicacy.

On 2nd Ramadan of Hijri 2, the first war between Islam and the nonbelievers was fought. Utba, the commandant of Quresh Army (who was the maternal grandfather of Muavia) stepped into the battle-field with his brother Shiba and son Valid and challenged them for the war.

Three Ansars, Hazrat Abdullah bin Lavaha Radiallahu anhoo Hazrat Auf Radiallahu anhoo and Hazrat Muaz Radiallahu anhoo came forward to fight. Utba asked the name. When he came to know that they were Ansars, he said that they did not fight with the farmers. And it was said that it was below their dignity. He shouted and said, “O’ Mohammadﷺ , send the man of our match.” Huzur ﷺ called senior Ansars and sent Hazrat Hamza Hazrat Ali and Hazrat Ubeda bin Harish bin Abdul Muttalib to face the rivals. Utba came face to face to Hazrat Hamza but was killed. Valid attacked Sher-e-Khudat, but Hydery Sword (Shamshir-e-Hydery) sent him to the other world. Shiba attacked Hazrat Ubeda and made him terribly injured. But, Sher-e Khuda jumped and cut him into two pieces, lifted Hazrat Ubeda on his shoulder and brought him in front of Huzurﷺ. Now, burning with anger, the Quresh attacked openly. Muslims also into the siege of the enemies with the utterances of Nara-e-Taqbir. A furious battle was fought. Sher-e-Khudale turned down rows by rows. The Hyderi sword was moving in such a way that the opponents of religion were scattered. Wherever Sher-e-Khuda attacked, the whole battle-ground was empty. None had the courage to face him. Right from the beginning till the end of the war, Sher-e-Khuda tore the rows into pieces. From there, in the Hyderi style, he used to go to Huzurﷺ for his service. After serving the protection of the Prophetia, he used to return to face the non-believers. Hazrat Ali’s AlahisSalam great adventure was to serve Huzurﷺ and simultaneously attack the opponents of religion. This has been authenticated by Ibn-e sa’ad and Imam Baihaki. (Khaisul Kubra Suyuti, Part-I, Pg#200)

To appreciate Sher-e-Khuda’s outstanding victory in the Battle of Badr is a glorious and essential chapter of Islamic history. It was clearly seen that the Divine Power protected them by keeping Hazrat Gabriel with them.

Many other sources state that the same Divine Protection was provided to Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq. Hence, Hazrat Ali Murtaza ” says, “During

the battle, there was a Divine Message that with one, there is Hazrat Gabriel and with the other, Hazrat Mikail.”

(Khasaisul-Kubra Part-I, P-201 by Ahmed, Bazaz, Abu Yala, Hakim, Baihaki). In other battles also such Divine Planning was being made. Hence, after his sad demise, Saiyeduna Hazrat Imam Hasan AlahisSalam while addressing the historical speech (Khutba) had explained the above events in detail as under:

“O, brother! Yesterday they moved. Hence the previous folks could not overtake them, and the people following them would not reach to their destinations. Whenever the Prophet asked the troops to march towards the battlefield, he used to give the flag in his hands, so that, they would always return with a great victory. Gabriel used to be on his left side and Mikail on the right.” (Kanzul-Ummal Part I P-462)

Due to the glorious adventure of Hazrat Ali AlaihisSalam in the battle of Badr, his glaring impression had become very firm. And his image in the hearts of the unbelievers of Mecca was so strong that the Quresh poets instigated people in their poetry to crucify the servants of Allah. In this movement, they used to write poems and songs which would inspire them with a patriotic spirit. The meanings some of Asad bin Ayas’ poetry are preserved in Usud-ul-Gaba which, lightened the spirit of youth in the youngsters of Quresh.

“The son of Fatima binte Asad (Hazrat Ali’s mother’s name was Fatima binte Asad) has insulted and humiliated you in every possible manner. Though he is still quite a young man, he ruined the whole of your community. How badly he has killed you. You were trying to save yourself, hiding and escaping here and there. What a great folly you have committed. They have destroyed the leaders and protectors of your community who were solving all types of your problems, were the people whose existence added to the glory of the Wadi-e-Bataha, and his sword did not spare anyone.”

Hazrat Ali Sher-e-Khuda AlahisSalam and Hazrat Hamza’s incomparable courageous gave shameful defeat to thousands Kuffar-e-Quresh. Seventy honourable and great Quresh personalities were killed, and seventy were arrested. They could get an exorbitant treasure. Sher-e-Khuda AlahisSalam received a sword, armour and a camel as his share.

Every True Muslim Love’s Nabi Pakﷺ

Nabi Kareem (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) Azeem ul Martabat Aur Ba Roab They. Aap Ka Chehra E Aqdas Chaudhwi Raat Ke Chaand Ki Tarah Chamakta Tha. Huzur (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) Ka Qad Mubarak Na Ziyada Lamba Tha Aur Na Hi Ziyada Chota Lekin Jab Logo Ke Darmiyan Khade Hote To Sab Se Oonche Nazar Aate. Jism E At’har Me Farba Pan (Mota Pan) Na Tha. Rang Safed Surkhi Maayel Tha. Mubarak Aankhein Nihayat Siyaah Thi Aur Palkein Daraaz Thi. Jodo Ki Haddiyan Moti Thi, Kandho Ke Sirey Aur Darmiyan Ki Jagah Par Gosht They. Badan E Aqdas Par Ziyada Baal Na The. Dono Shaano Ke Darmiyan Mohre Nabuwat Thi. Jo Aap (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) Ko Achanak Dekhta Pehli Nazar Me Muhabbat Karne Lagta. Al-Gharz Huliya Bayan Karne Wala Yehi Keh Sakta Hai Ke Main Ne Aap Jesa Na Aap Se Pehle Dekha Na Aap Ke Baad.

Kisi Ajwaaz Par Itna Rashk Nahin Karti Jitna Hazrat Khadijah SalamUllahAlaiha.

“Hazrat Aaishah Siddiqua RadiyAllahu Ta’ala Anha Farmati Hain Ki Mein Huzoor Nabi-E-Akram SallAllahu Ta’ala Alayhi Wa Aalihi Wa Sallam Kee Ajwaaz Mutahharaat Me Se Kisi Par Itna Rashk Nahin Karti Jitna Hazrat Khadijah RadiyAllahu Ta’ala Anha Par, Hala’n Ki Woh Mere Nikaah Se Pehle Hee Wafaat Paa Chuki Thi’n, Lekin Mein Aap SallAllahu Ta’ala Alayhi Wa Aalihi Wa Sallam Ko Un Ka (Kasrat Se) Dhikr Farmate Huwe Sunti Thi Ki Allah Ta’ala Ne Aap SallAllahu Ta’ala Alayhi Wa Aalihi Wa Sallam Ko Hukm Farmaya Ki Khadija Ko Motiyon Ke Mahal Kee Bashaarat De Dijiye Aur Jab Aap SallAllahu Ta’ala Alayhi Wa Aalihi Wa Sallam Koi Bakari Zabah Farmate To Aap SallAllahu Ta’ala Alayhi Wa Aalihi Wa Sallam Un Kee Saheliyon Ko Itna Gosht Bhejte Jo Unhein Kifaayat Kar Jaata.”
