The freed slave of 'Umar bin 'Ubaidullah who was 'Umar's clerk: 'Abdullah bin Abi Aufa wrote him a letter that contained the following:-- "Once Allah's Apostle , waited till the sun had declined and then he got up among the people and said, "O people! Do not wish to face the enemy and ask Allah to save you but if you should face the enemy, then be patient and let it be known to you that Paradise is under the shades of swords." He then said,, "O Allah! The Revealer of the Book, the Mover of the clouds, and Defeater of Al-Ahzab , defeat them infidels and bestow victory upon us. (en) |
