Hafsah bint Umar (رضي الله عنهم) (S2) Umar رضي الله عنه first went to Uthmaan رضي الله عنه to ask if he wanted to marry Hafsah رضي الله عنها, however he stated he was not ready. Umar رضي الله عنه went to tell the messenger ﷺ of this, to which he ,ﷺ, said: “Hafsah will marry a man better than Uthmaan. Uthmaan will marry a woman better than Hafsah”. (رضي الله عنهم). The blessed marriage took place in 3 A.H, in the month of shabaan. The first time our messenger ﷺ called Umar رضي الله عنه ‘Abu Hafsa' رضي الله عنها was at the battle of Badr!

Rico Verhoeven and Badr Hari are THE biggest stars in kickboxing right now. With them at the tail end of their careers I asked myself: “How does the kickboxing landscape look like after Rico and Badr inevitably retire?” Who will follow in their footsteps? But wait, why are there just two big kickboxing superstars? With Rico and Badr on their way out, kickboxing is in dire need of new superstars. But how are superstars built?

Badr was not just the first battle in Islam—it was a defining moment in history. Had the believers not been victorious, Islam may not have survived. The Prophet ﷺ and his companions faced overwhelming odds:... The post Ramadan Reflection Day 17- The Lessons of Badr: Trust in Allah, Preparation, and Victory– Dr. Abdul Wahid first appeared on Islampodcasts.

Badr was not just the first battle in Islam—it was a defining moment in history. Had the believers not been victorious, Islam may not have survived. The Prophet ﷺ and his companions faced overwhelming odds: 319 believers against 1,000 Quraysh warriors. Yet, through faith, preparation, and Allah's help, they emerged victorious. Are we following the lessons of Badr today? Or are we allowing fear and hesitation to prevent us from standing for the truth? Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_kQVtgFSVo

“The Day of Distinction (Yawm al-Furqan): Reflections on Faith, Sacrifice, and Victory”Introduction: 17th Ramadan – Yawm al-Badr• Significance: The 17th of Ramadan marks the historic Battle of Badr, the greatest military victory of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.• Ramadan has historically been a month of significant victories:• Battle of Badr (2 AH)• Conquest of Makkah (Fath Makkah) (8 AH)BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Why Badr Matters• Known in the Qur'an as Yawm al-Furqan (Day of Distinction), clearly differentiating truth from falsehood.• Sahaba who participated (Ahlul Badr, 313 companions) are ranked highest among companions.• Guaranteed paradise (Hadith: “Do as you please; you have been forgiven.”)• Prophet ﷺ honoured them with special recognition even in funeral prayers (six takbirs instead of four).• Angels who participated were also the highest-ranking angels, led by Jibreel (AS).Historical Context: Prelude to Badr• Migration (Hijrah) forced Muslims to abandon homes, wealth, and possessions in Makkah.• Quraysh confiscated Muslim properties, using these resources for lucrative trade caravans (Rehlat ash-Shita'i was-Saif).• Muslims aimed to reclaim their rightful property by intercepting a Qurayshi caravan led by Abu Sufyan, triggering events leading to Badr.From Caravan Raid to Full-scale Battle• 313 Muslims set out initially to intercept a lightly guarded caravan, not expecting battle.• Quraysh gathered 1,300 soldiers, heavily armed, under leadership of Abu Jahl, aiming to decisively crush Muslims.Intervention by Shaytan (Iblis)• Quraysh initially hesitant to leave Makkah undefended due to fear of attack from Banu Bakar tribe.• Shaytan appeared disguised as Suraqah ibn Malik of Banu Bakar, assuring Quraysh of safety, urging them to fight.• Quranic Reference: (Surah Al-Anfal) highlighting how Shaytan deceived and encouraged Quraysh to battle.Thanks for reading BeQuranic! This post is public so feel free to share it.Strategic Decisions and Divine Support• Prophet ﷺ strategically positioned Muslims at wells, guided by advice from companion Hubab ibn al-Mundhir.• Muslims experienced miraculous comfort:• Peaceful sleep despite imminent danger.• Gentle rain provided stability, comfort, and firm ground.• Quraysh, by contrast, experienced discomfort:• Heavy rain, causing fatigue and difficult terrain.Prophet's ﷺ Prayer and Trust in Allah• Prophet ﷺ spent the night in fervent du'a:• Notably repeating “Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum” (O Ever-Living, O Sustainer).• Made urgent du'a, recognizing critical significance: “If this small group is destroyed, Islam itself will vanish.”• Encouragement from Abu Bakr comforting the Prophet ﷺ, assuring him of Allah's help.The Battle: Angels Descend• Muslims arranged strategically (in straight lines), introducing new disciplined military tactics unfamiliar to Arabs.• Jibreel and angels appeared, visibly fighting alongside Muslims, terrifying Quraysh.• Shaytan (in form of Suraqah) fled upon seeing angels, declaring: “I see what you see not; I fear Allah.”Outcomes and Consequences of Badr• Decisive Victory: Muslims achieved overwhelming victory.• Quraysh lost over 70 key leaders (e.g., Abu Jahl, Umayyah ibn Khalaf).• Muslims had minimal casualties (~14 martyrs).• Islam recognized as a significant force across Arabian Peninsula for the first time, marking the beginning of its rise.Lessons & Reflections from Badr• Tawakkul (Reliance on Allah): Trusting Allah fully despite overwhelming odds.• Sincerity and Sacrifice: Muslims left everything behind purely for Allah's sake.• Unity in Diversity: Prophet ﷺ strategically utilized companions' diverse backgrounds (Muhajirin & Ansar) for strength.• Recognition of True Heroes: Encouraged knowing Sahaba (e.g., Mus'ab ibn Umair, Ali ibn Abi Talib, Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib) as genuine role models, over fictional or superficial heroes.Practical Takeaways:• Tonight's Remembrance: Emulate Prophet's du'a:• Recite “Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum”, seeking Allah's aid for personal and collective struggles.• Reflect deeply on the legacy and lessons of Badr.• Renew personal commitments towards Islam, inspired by Sahaba's exemplary courage and sacrifice.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication.

To hear more, visit bequranic.substack.comIntroduction: Ramadan Midway CheckpointTonight marks the 15th night of Ramadan, halfway through the blessed month—a perfect opportunity for self-reflection. Are we improving spiritually, or are we letting distractions pull us away?On the 17th of Ramadan, we commemorate the Battle of Badr (Yawm al-Furqan), the decisive victory distinguishing truth from falsehood. Historically, two great victories—Badr (military) and Fath Makkah (political)—occurred during Ramadan, though the Prophet ﷺ commanded the breaking of fast during battle to maintain strength, highlighting their humanity despite immense faith.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Tafseer of Surah Al-An'am (Verses 45-49)Verse 45 (Recap):• Allah assures victory to His messengers and faithful followers while cutting off the disbelievers.Verse 46-47:• Allah asks rhetorically: “If He were to take away your sight, hearing, and seal your hearts, who besides Allah could restore them?”• Significance of the Heart: In Islam, the heart is the spiritual centre, governing intention, intellect, and emotional states. Modern science affirms the heart's independent neural activity, reinforcing this profound Qur'anic concept.• Allah repeatedly delivers the same core message (tawhid and accountability) from different angles—intellectually, emotionally, gently, or sternly—to appeal to different aspects of human nature. Humans require repeated reminders (“Sacred Monotony”) for genuine improvement.“Sacred Monotony” Explained:

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit bequranic.substack.comAlhamdulillah, we continue our reflections on Surah Al-An'am, verses 42 to 45, during the 14th night of Ramadan.Tonight, Allah introduces the concept of istidraj, the subtle test where apparent blessings—like wealth, health, and power—actually lead people further away from Allah. Nations before us received messengers and reminders through hardships. If hardships failed to humble them, Allah sometimes granted them even greater worldly success, making them feel invincible—only to seize them suddenly, leaving them utterly confused and destroyed.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Fir'aun (Pharaoh) exemplifies istidraj. He was granted immense power, wealth, health, and advanced technology (evident from Egyptian architecture and engineering achievements). Instead of gratitude, these blessings made Fir'aun arrogant, ultimately leading him to claim divinity. His argument was that continuous worldly success meant Allah approved of him. However, Allah was giving him more rope to intensify his punishment—a powerful warning against equating worldly success with divine approval.Events in life—whether blessings or hardships—are fundamentally neutral. What truly matters is how we respond. Gratitude transforms blessings into true gifts, while arrogance or ingratitude turns them into punishments.Historically, the Muslims achieved miraculous victories not due to their numbers, but through sincerity, humility, and reliance on Allah. For instance, the Battle of Badr (17th Ramadan) saw angels assisting a vastly outnumbered Muslim army. Likewise, the Battle of Khandaq was won without direct combat—Allah alone defeated the enemy through a fierce sandstorm. Even the conquest of Mecca was peaceful.

The Quraysh, despite their numerical superiority, were unprepared for the determined resistance they encountered, leading to to around 70 men, including key Quraysh leaders, being killed while many others were captured. The surviving Quraysh retreated to Mecca, marking a decisive victory for Muhammad and his ...

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit bequranic.substack.comAssalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh! Welcome back to BeQuranic's Tafseer & Taraweeh podcast. Alhamdulillah, tonight is the 13th night of Ramadan. We continue our reflections on Surah Al-An'am, resuming from verse 41.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Allah reminds the Quraysh—and us—that in moments of desperation, we instinctively turn only to Him. Even Abu Jahl, one of the Prophet's greatest enemies, made dua to Allah at the Ka'bah for victory just before the Battle of Badr—ironically asking Allah to grant victory to the righteous, unaware he was sealing his own defeat.Allah then speaks about how previous nations were tested with trials and calamities so they might humble themselves. Difficulties are a sign from Allah, an opportunity to pause, reflect, and correct our paths. When hardship comes, it's either a purification of sins or a means of elevating our ranks spiritually, bringing us closer to the example of the Prophets who faced the greatest trials.However, not everyone responds positively. Some, like Fir'aun, become even more arrogant, their hearts hardened by difficulties instead of humbled by them. Events in life aren't inherently good or bad—it's how we respond that defines them. A hardship can be a blessing if we respond with patience, and a blessing can become harmful if we respond with arrogance or neglect Allah.

In this episode of the "Ramadan to Remember - Reflection Time" series, we reflect on the divine name of Allah: Al-Aziz (The Almighty). By delving into the profound insights from the story of the Battle of Badr, we highlight Allah's unmatched power and strength. Discover how placing your trust in Allah's might can help you overcome life's challenges and obstacles. The episode concludes with a heartfelt supplication to seek Allah's strength and guidance in our daily lives.

Hadrat Abdullah ibn Amr ibn Al Aas (ra) Session 37 The Battle of Siffeen Hafiz Ibn Kathir (rah) had related, Some of the men who had been present at Badr stayed in their dwellings after the murder of Hadrat Uthmaan (ra) and never left until they went to their graves. (Al Bidaayah) Ash-Sha`bee (rah) had related, "Only a few Companions were present at the Battle of the Camel Hadrat Alee (ra), Hadrat Am'maar (ra), Hadrat Talha (ra) and Hadrat Zubayr (ra) (Ibn Abi Shaihbah). Abdullah ibn Ahmad (rah) related from his father Imam Ahmad (rah) who related from Ismaa'eel ibn Aaliyah (rah) who related from Ay'yoob as- Sakthtiyaanee (rah) who related from Muhammad ibn Seereen (rah), "When the Fitnah arose, the Glorious Companions numbered in there tens of thousands - yet less than a mere hundred got involved indeed their number was barely thirty." (Ahmad - Musnad "This Chain is one of the soundest Chains on the face of the earth and Muhammad ibn Seereen [rah] is one of the most pious people in his speech and his reports are the soundest). Alee (ra) stared "How smart was the stance taken by Sa'ad ibn Maalik (ra) and Abdullah ibn Umar (ra) for if it is correct, the reward will be great and if wrong then the consequence will not be serious." (Al-Haithami Majma Az-zawaa'id). "The Messenger ﷺ said to Am'maar (ra) whilst digging the ditch, as he ﷺ began to pass his hand over his head - in love and affection. "What a trouble to the son of Sumayyah (raa)! A rebellious party will kill you!" (Muslim).

Back in 1959, a writer named Samson Rebaldi gave an autocrat and despot a real glow-up in the pages of Confidential, a gossip rag of the era. Yemen's second-to-last hereditary ruler, Ahmad bin Yahya - known as "Ahmad the devil" within Yemen - was in Rome at the time, receiving medical treatment for a variety of ailments, and Rebaldi delighted in the news that he had traveled with his multiple wives, dozens of concubines, and maintained a stable of "slave girls" back at home. In Rome, Rebaldi says that doctors limited the ailing dictator to six female visitors a day, though Yahya's age, health problems, and various drug addictions may have made these visits less exciting that Rebaldi believed. Yahya died in his sleep three years after the piece was published, at the age of 71, and was briefly succeeded by his son, Muhammad al-Badr. The Badr reign came to an end after just a week, when disaffected soldiers launched a coup and declared Yemen a Republic. It is, very tragically, still working on that.

After 15 months of warfare, humanitarian aid is finally getting through to Gaza.By Wednesday, 2,400 trucks had crossed the border and aid agencies are ramping up delivery of essential supplies following the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel that began on Sunday.The need is enormous as are the logistical difficulties in delivering food and medical supplies in a region where there are no longer roads and where vast tracts of demolished buildings dot the landscape.Families, like the Badr family, father, mother and three of their 10 children, who have been living in refugee camps for safety from unrelenting Israeli air attacks, are returning to their homes to find nothing left expect piles of rubble. For some families, the return means searching through the rubble for the bodies of their loved ones.Unicef's Rosalia Bollen is on the ground in Gaza and she explains the challenges in delivering aid in war-torn Gaza, the very real threat of famine and the impact 15 months of war has had on children.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Je suis ravi de vous présenter Youssef Badr, un magistrat au parcours impressionnant, d'une rare humilité et d'une grande profondeur. Pour la première fois sur Beurn Out, il partage avec nous son expérience de magistrat, les défis qu'il rencontre au quotidien, et les failles du système judiciaire français, notamment en raison du manque de moyens.Au-delà de son métier, Youssef évoque aussi des sujets sensibles, comme son identité de binational, et revient sur les récentes déclarations d'un parti politique qui a remis en question la légitimité des binationaux, comme lui, à exercer certaines fonctions publiques, y compris celle de juge.Il nous parle également de ses passions personnelles et de son engagement auprès de l'association La Courte Échelle, qui aide les jeunes étudiants en droit à trouver des stages et à débuter leur carrière.Cet épisode est une vraie pépite, riche en réflexion et en partage. Un parcours inspirant et profondément humain qui mérite vraiment d'être écouté jusqu'au bout.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Dans ce Finary Talk, nous recevons un invité qui a vécu de l'intérieur le monde de la finance internationale. Ancien directeur général de la Banque mondiale, conseiller auprès de Jacques Chirac et directeur financier au sein de grandes institutions comme le Crédit Agricole et la Société Générale, il a aujourd'hui pris un tournant décisif en devenant un acteur engagé de la finance durable. Avec lui, nous abordons une question brûlante : la finance peut-elle se transformer pour répondre aux défis écologiques et sociaux de notre temps ? Souvent accusée de nourrir la surconsommation, d'aggraver les inégalités et de participer à la destruction de la planète, la finance doit-elle, et surtout peut-elle, changer de cap ?

If you want to know how to approach your Duas with an open heart and full faith, then listen to this podcast by Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA)……as he talks about the mental hurdles we face in making Duas.Sometimes, we hesitate, not fully believing our prayer can be answered. But remember, even Shaytan made Du'a, and Allah answered it. When we reflect on this, we realize that Allah's doors of mercy and acceptance are always open for anyone who calls upon Him.Shaytan, despite being misguided, possesses knowledge and has used it throughout history, as we see in the Battle of Badr. Here, he attempted to mislead the disbelievers against the Muslims but quickly fled when he saw the angels descending. Understanding Shaytan's actions reminds us to never doubt the strength of Allah's protection over the believers.Remember, no matter how much he's cornered you, when you call upon Allah, know that your voice is heard. Never let doubt creep into your heart, thinking you're somehow overlooked by Allah. He is the Most Merciful, and He promises to respond to His servants.

Is anxiety robbing your sleep these days?In this video, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) discussed the prophetic teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)……to deal with the worst anxieties we experience from time to time. Not just us, but Sahabas before the Battle of Badr were worried because the odds were stacked against them.But Allah provided them with a restful sleep and rain to ease their anxiety. And everyone knew what happened after that.You see, every hardship we face is from Allah…And He doesn't burden us with a weight we can't handle.So no matter how terrifyingly our anxiety gets the better of us…Allah has given us the strength to ward it off.As humans, our minds are wired to go into alert mode when we feel just a little bit unsafe.So, make a habit of creating a calm and safe environment.If you can't create one, then go find a place that gives you this feeling.Whether it's enjoying a warm cup of tea, listening to the soothing sound of rain……or burning incense, finding what works for you is essential. Many of us find comfort in simple, sensory experiences rather than turning to social media, which often intensifies anxiety.And as far as social media goes…There's a sea of misinformation out there.Even if the news is authentic, one negative post is enough to alleviate our anxiety even more.So, find out what brings you peace and stick with it.Keep your mind calm enough to not let anxiety get the better of you every time.And always, always turn to Allah (swt) because He always has your back.
