Abu Jabir Abdallah bin Amr bin Hiram
Shaded by Angels!
When the seventy Ansaar gave their
allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) in the Second Pledge of 'Aqabah,
'Abd Allah Ibn ‘Amr Ibn Hiraam, also known as Abu Jaabir Ibn ‘Abd Allah, was
one of them. When the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) chose some leaders among
them, ‘Abd Allah Ibn 'Amr was one of these leaders. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH)
made him the leader of his people, the Bard Salamah. When they returned to
Al-Madiinah, he sacrificed himself, his money, and his family in the service
of Islam. After the Messenger's Hijrah to Al-Madiinah, Abu Jaabir found
utmost enjoyment in accompanying the Prophet (PBUH) day and night.
In the Battle of Badr, he went out fighting like a hero. At Uhud he dreamed
of his death before the Muslims went out to battle. He was overwhelmed by a
true sense that he was not coming back, and his heart was full of joy. He
called to him his son Jaabir Ibn 'Abd Allah, the noble Companion, and said,
"I see myself killed in this battle. Maybe I'll be the first martyr among
the Muslims. By Allah, I'll leave no one that I like more than you after the
Messenger of Allah (PBUH). I am in debt, so pay my debts and make your
brothers your own concern."
The next morning the Muslims went out to encounter the Quraish that had come
in an uproarious army to invade their peaceful city. A dreadful battle
raged, at the beginning of which the Muslims achieved rapid victory. It
could have been a decisive victory but for the archers, whom the Messenger (PBUH)
had ordered to stay at their positions and never to leave them, who were
tempted by this quick victory over the Quraish. They left their positions on
the mountain and were pre-occupied with gathering the booty of the defeated
army. The Quraish quickly gathered its scattered remnants when it found the
Muslims' back completely exposed. They surprised them by a quick attack from
behind, changing the Muslim victory into defeat.
During this bitter fight, 'Abd Allah Ibn 'Amr died as a martyr. When the
Muslims went to find their martyrs after the fighting had ended, Jaabir Ibn
'Abd Allah went to search for his father. He found him among the martyrs,
whom the polytheists had made a dreadful display of along with other heroes.
Jaabir and some of his family were crying over the martyr of Islam 'Abd
Allah Ibn 'Amr Ibn Hiraam when the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) passed by. He
said, "Cry over him or not, the angels are here to shade him with their
wings!"
Abu Jaabir's belief was strong. His love,
or even eagerness, to die in the cause of Allah was his greatest ambition.
Afterward, the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) announced the great news that
depicted his great fondness of martyrdom. One day he (PBUH) said to ‘Abd
Allah's son Jaabir, "O Jaabir, Allah has never spoken to anyone but from
behind a veil, but He has spoken to me face to face. He said, 'O slave, ask
Me to give you.' He said, 'O Allah, I ask You to return me to earth, to be
killed again in Your cause.' Allah answered him, "I said before: They will
not return to them.' He said, 'O Allah, then inform those after me of the
blessings you have bestowed on us.' So exalted Allah sent down:
<Think not of those who are killed in the way of Allah as dead Nay, they are
alive, with their Lord, and they have provision. They rejoice in what Allah
has bestowed upon them of His Bounty, rejoicing for the sake of those who
have not joined them, but are left behind (not yet marytred) that on them no
fear shall come, nor shall they grieve>" (3: 169-170).
When the Muslims were identifying their
pious martyrs after the Battle of Uhud and the family of 'Abd Allah Ibn 'Amr
had identified his corpse, his wife carried him, together with her brother
who was martyred also, on her camel. She began taking them back to al-Madiinah
to bury them there. Likewise did some other Muslims for their martyrs. But
the crier of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) caught up with them and announced
the Messenger's order: Bury the martyrs on their battle-ground. So they all
returned with their martyrs.
The Noble Prophet (PBUH) was supervising the burial of his martyred
Companions who had fulfilled their promise to Allah and sacrificed their
precious souls as humble offerings to Allah and His Messenger. When it was
‘Abd Allah Ibn Hiraam's turn to be buried, the Messenger of Allah (PBUH)
called, "Bury 'Abd Allah Ibn -Amr and 'Amr Ibn Al-Jamuuh in one grave; they
were loving and sincere to each other in this world."
Now, during the moments of preparing the happy grave to receive the two
noble martyrs, let us have a loving look at the second martyr, 'Amr Ibn Al-Jamuuh.
