was better than that of yours. When I came to these words: `Then which of the favours of your Lord do you deny?' They<br />

said: Our Lord, there is nothing that we deny of Thy favour; to Thee is praise due.<br />

Tirmidhi reported and said: This is a gharib hadith.<br />

Hadith Qudsi<br />

Hadith Qudsi 6<br />

The first of people against whom judgment will be pronounced on the Day of Resurrection will be a man who died a martyr.<br />

He will be brought and Allah will make known to him His favours and he will recognize them.<br />

FEALTY:<br />

48:10 - Verily those who plight their fealty to thee do no less than plight their fealty to Allah: the<br />

Hand of Allah is over their hands: Then anyone who violates His oath does so to the harm of<br />

his own soul and anyone who fulfills what he has covenanted with Allah Allah will soon grant<br />

him a great Reward. 4877<br />

4877 In the Hudaibiya negotiations, when it was uncertain whether the Quraish would treat well or ill the Prophet's delegate<br />

to Makkah, there was a great wave of feeling in the Muslim camp of 1400 to 1500 men. They came with great<br />

enthusiasm and swore their fealty to the Prophet, by placing hand on hand according to the Arab custom: see<br />

paragraph 3 of the Introduction to this Sura. This in itself was a wonderful demonstration of moral and material<br />

strength, a true Victory: it is called Bai'at ur Ridhwan (Fealty of Allah's Good Pleasure) in Islamic History. They placed<br />

their hands on the Prophet's hand, but the Hand of Allah was above them, and He accepted their Fealty. 'Alaihu is an<br />

archaic form for 'Alaihi. (48.10)<br />

48:18 - Allah's Good Pleasure was on the believers when they swore Fealty to thee under the Tree:<br />

He knew what was in their hearts and He sent down tranquillity to them and He rewarded<br />

them with a speedy Victory; 48914892489348944895<br />

4892 The great ceremony of the Fealty of Allah's Good Pleasure took place while the holy Prophet sat under a tree in the<br />

plain of Hudaibiya. (48.18)<br />

4895 The Treaty of Hudaibiya itself was a "speedy Victory": it followed immediately after the Bai'at. (48.18)<br />

Habib ibn Zayd al-Ansari<br />

Habib, still at a tender age, was privileged to go with his mother, father, maternal aunt and brother to Makkah with the<br />

pioneering group of seventy five who pledged fealty to the Prophet at Aqabah and played a decisive role in shaping the early<br />

history of Islam.<br />
