8:72 - Those who believed and adopted exile and fought for the faith with their property and their<br />

persons in the cause of Allah as well as those who gave (them) asylum and aid these are (all)<br />

friends and protectors one of another. As to those who believed but came not into exile ye<br />

owe no duty of protection to them until they seek your aid in religion it is your duty to help<br />

them except against a people with whom ye have a treaty of mutual alliance: and (remember)<br />

Allah seeth all that ye do. 123912401241<br />

9:100 - The vanguard (of Islam) the first of those who forsook (their homes) and of those who gave<br />

them aid and (also) those who follow them in (all) good deeds well pleased is Allah with them<br />

as are they with him: for them hath He prepared gardens under which rivers flow to dwell<br />

therein for ever: that is the supreme felicity. 13481349<br />

1348 The vanguard of Islam-those in the first rank-are those who dare and suffer for the Cause and never flinch. The first<br />

historical examples are the Muhajirs and the Ansar. The Muhajirs-those who forsook their homes in Makkah and<br />

migrated to Madinah, the Holy Prophet being among the last to leave the post of danger, are mentioned first. Then<br />

come the Ansar, the Helpers, the citizens of Madinah who invited them, welcomed them, and gave them aid, and who<br />

formed the pivot of the new Community. Then are mentioned all who follow them in good deeds: not only the early<br />

heroes and ordinary men and women who had been Companions of the Prophet or had seen him, but men and<br />

women in all ages who have lived noble lives. In spite of all their sacrifice and suffering they rejoice in the precious gift<br />

of the Good Pleasure of Allah, and their Salvation is the Supreme Felicity which such Good Pleasure gives. (9.100)<br />

1349 Note the description of the final accomplishment of the destiny of man. In mathematical science it would be like a<br />

letter or formula which would sum up a long course of reasoning. In this very Sura it occurs before in ix. 72 and ix. 89,<br />

where see n. 1341. (9.100)<br />

1:5 - Thee do we worship and Thine aid we seek. 21<br />

21 On realizing in our souls God's love and care, His grace and mercy, and His power and justice (as Ruler of the Day of<br />

Judgment), the immediate result is that we bend in the act of worship, and see both our shortcomings and His allsufficient<br />

power. The emphatic form means that not only do we reach the position of worshipping God and asking for<br />

His help, but we worship Him alone and ask for His aid only. For there is none other than He worthy of our devotion<br />

and able to help us. The plural "we" indicates that we associate ourselves with all who seek God, thus strengthening<br />

ourselves and strengthening them in a fellowship of faith. (1.5)<br />

Sunan of Abu-Dawood<br />

Hadith 2723 Narrated by<br />

Umm Ziyad<br />

Hashraj ibn Ziyad reported on the authority of his grandmother that she went out with the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon<br />

him) for the battle of Khaybar. They were six in number including herself. (She said): When the Apostle of Allah (peace be<br />

upon him) was informed about it, he sent for us. We came to him, and found him angry. He said: With whom did you come<br />

out, and by whose permission did you come out? We said: Apostle of Allah, we have come out to spin the hair, by which we<br />

provide aid in the cause of Allah. We have medicine for the wounded, we hand arrows (to the fighters), and supply drink<br />

made of wheat or barley. He said: Stand up. When Allah bestowed victory of Khaybar on him, he allotted shares to us from<br />

spoils that he allotted to the men. He (Hashraj ibn Ziyad) said: I said to her: Grandmother, what was that? She replied:<br />

Dates.<br />
