The Migration of the Messenger of Allah

During this time, the incident of hijrah sangant is identical to our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam only. In fact, when we read the Qur'an, of course we find that the prophets and messengers besides the Prophet Muhammad also experienced a new chapter in their preaching in the form of hijrah. But maybe we are not aware that this is their migration, a new phase of the mission of the messengers of Allah.

Although many prophets and apostles experienced migration, their migration was different from the migration of our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

Among the apostles who experienced the migration event are:

First: Prophet Ibrahim sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

Regarding the migration of Abraham, there were two opinions, which city was the destination of Prophet Ibrahim after going from his country Iraq. (1) Some say that he migrated to Mecca and (2) others said that he moved to Syria, to the land of Jerusalem, Palestine. And no doubt, Prophet Ibrahim did enter the two cities. But which city was visited first? Allahu a'lam.

There are at least three verses which explain the migration of Prophet Ibrahim aih alaihi ash-shalatu wa as-salam.

فَآَمَنَ لَهُ لُوطٌ وَقَالَ إِنِّي مُهَاجِرٌ إِلَى رَبِّي إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ

"So Lut justified him. And Ibrahim said: "I will move to (the place which is commanded) my Lord (to me); indeed He is the Mighty, the Wise. "(Surat al-Ankabut: 26).

Another verse,

وَقَالَ إِنِّي ذَاهِبٌ إِلَى رَبِّي سَيَهْدِينِ

And Ibrahim said: "Verily I go before my Lord, and He will guide me". (Surah Ash-Shaffat: 99).

And the word of God,

وَأَعْتَزِلُكُمْ وَمَا تَدْعُونَ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ وَأَدْعُو رَبِّي عَسَىٰ أَلَّا أَكُونَ بِدُعَاءِ رَبِّي شَقِيًّا

"And I will distance myself from you and from what you exclaim besides Allah, and I will pray to my Lord, hopefully I will not be disappointed by praying to my Lord". (Surah Maryam: 48).

He distanced himself from the worship they did and also distance himself from the place.



Second: The Prophet Musa sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam.

The migration of Prophet Moses was different from the migration of Prophet Ibrahim and the Prophet Muhammad. When he moved, Prophet Moses was not appointed as an apostle. The Prophet Ibrahim and the Prophet Muhammad were appointed as messengers when both of them emigrated.

The migration of Prophet Moses occurred when he killed a man Qibthi.

وَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَقْصَى الْمَدِينَة يَسْعَىٰ قَالَ يَا مُوسَىٰ إِنَّ الْمَلَأَ يَأْتَمِرُونَ بِكَ لِيَقْتُلُوكَ فَاخْرُجْ إِنِّي لَكَ مِنَ النَّاصِحِينَ

"And a man came from the edge of the city hurrying up and said: 'O Moses, verily the prince of the country is negotiating about you to kill you, because that came out of this city, I am among those who gave you advice. "(Qur'an, Al-Qasas: 20).

The Prophet Moses went to Madyan. During his 10-year stay in Madyan, Prophet Moses married a female woman from an elderly man in the region.

Another difference between the migration of the Prophet Muhammad and the Prophet Moses was the background of the migration. If the emigration of the Prophet Muhammad was because the Meccans had closed themselves from the guidance of Islam, while in Madinah the widespread existence of da'wah and the establishment of an Islamic state were very likely to be reached. As for the Prophet Moses to avoid the cruelty of Pharaoh.

فَفَرَرْتُ مِنْكُمْ لَمَّا خِفْتُكُمْ فَوَهَبَ لِي رَبِّي حُكْمًا وَجَعَلَنِي مِنَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ

"Then I ran away from you when I was afraid of you, then my Lord gave me knowledge and He made me one of the apostles." (Surah AS-Syuara: 21).



And there are still many other prophets and apostles who experienced hijrah, such as Prophet Ya'qub and Prophet Yusuf, etc. In conclusion, the migration of the prophets is different from the migration of the Prophet Muhammad. His hijrah has a position that is so noble and also very heavy in practice. His hijrah was not a dilator, running away from the torture or adzab of his people.

Muslimah Hijrah

Having told me Muhammad bin Al 'Ala'; Having told us Abu Usamah; Having told us Buraid bin Abdullah of Abu Burdah from Abu Musa radlahuahu 'anhu he said; News of the departure of the hijrah of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam to Madinah arrived at us when we were in Yemen, so we departed to meet him with my two brothers, I was the youngest. Only Abu Burdah and only Abu Ruhm. -Word Abu Burdah; it seems Abu Musa said with about ten, or fifty-three, or fifty-two of my people - we boarded a boat, then the boat sent us to King Najasyi in Ethiopia, where we met Ja'far bin Abu Talib and lived with us until we can together go to Madinah. We met the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam to coincide with him conquering Khaibar. Then some people who with the Prophet said to us - that is, the passengers of the boat - "We are more special than you because of hijrah", then Asma 'bint' Umais, -he was among those who came with us, passengers of the boat-met Hafshah the wife of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam, coincidentally he also moved to Najasyi with a group of boats. Umar then met Hafshah who was Asthma at his side. When Umar saw Asma ', Umar asked; "Who is this?" 'I am Asma' bint Umais! 'Answer Asma'. 'Umar said; 'Did you join the muhajirin who rode a boat, or sailed the sea? ',' True 'Answer Asma'. Umar said; 'We are more special than you because you have migrated, and we are more entitled to Rasulullah than you guys! '. Hearing this expression, Asma 'bin Umais was directly emotional and said; 'No, by Allah, even your togetherness with the Messenger of Allaah' alaihi wasallam, so that he can feed the hungry and give the ignorant advice, while we are in a country or on earth that is far and arid in Ethiopia, and that is all for Allah and His Messenger, and for Allah's sake, we cannot feed the hungry, nor can we give a thirsty drink so I will report your words to the Messenger of Allaah alaihi wasallam, we are also hurt and terrorized, and I will report them to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam. By Allah, I will ask him, I will not lie, will not leave the truth, and will not add to it! 'When the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wasallam arrived, Asma 'bint Umais conveyed her unions; 'O Prophet, Umar said so - He reported Umar's words which said he and his entourage were more special -. The Prophet asked: 'Then how do you answer? 'Asma' answered; 'I said that, "he said all the answers - the Prophet then said:' He, Umar, has no more right to me than you, he and his companions have only one hijrah, while you boat passengers have two migrations. ' Said Asma 'bint Umais;' After that I saw Abu Musa and the passengers of the boat meeting me one after another asking me this hadith. So that nothing of the worldly possessions could please them more, nor would they glorify over the words of the Messenger of Allah to them. ' Abu Burdah said, Asma 'said:' I saw Abu Musa repeatedly asking me to repeat this hadith. '

Having told us Waki ​​'told us Al Mas'udiy from Amru bin Murrah from Abdullah bin Al Harits Al Maktab, from Abu Kathir Az Zubaidiy of Abdullah bin' Amru, that there was a man asking the Messenger of Allaah 'alaihi wa Greetings, he said; "What is the most important migration?" he replied: "That is you abstain from what has been hated by your Rabb, and there are two hijrah; Al Hadlir Hijrah and Al Badiy Hijrah. Al Badiy Hijrah is that you are always obedient when ordered, and always ready if called upon. Al Hadlir Hijrah is hijrah the heavier the test and the reward between the two migrations. "

Having told us Waqi 'told us Al Mas'udi. Dan Yazid said; had told us Al Mas'udi of 'Amru bin Murroh of Abdullah bin Al Harith Al Muktibi of Abu Katir Az Zubaidi of Abdullah bin' Amru, he said; The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa Salam said: "Be careful of you from the nature of the hermit, actually the hermit nature has destroyed the people before you, if that nature tells them to do wrong, they also do wrong, if they tell them to break their kinship too decide, if they make a sin they commit sin, so be careful of doing wrong, because tyranny is darkness on the Day of Resurrection, and be careful of your evil nature, because Allah does not like abominations and abominable words. " He says; then a man stood up and said: "O Messenger of Allah, what is the most important Muslim?" He replied: "That is a Muslim whose Muslims are safe from the dangers of verbal and hand." Dai said: then stand the man, or another man while asking: "O Messenger of Allah, what is the most important jihad?" He replied: "That is a person whose horse is injured and his blood is drenched." My father said; and Yazid ibn Harun said in his hadith, then this or the other exclaimed and said: "O Messenger of Allah, what is the most important migration?" He replied: "You stay away from something that has been hated by your Rabb, while the hijrah itself is twofold; Hijrah Al Hadlir and Hijrah Al Badiy. Hijrah Al Badiy is obedient when ordered, and always ready if called upon. As for Hijrah Al Hadlir is more hijrah the weight of the test and the reward between the two migrations. "

Having told us Abdullah bin Barrad Al Asy'ari and Muhammad bin Al Allaa Al Hamdani both said; Having told us Abu Usamah had told me Buraid from Abu Burdah from Abu Musa he said; "When we were in Yemen, we got information about the purpose of the hijrah which was ordered by the Messenger of Allaah 'alaihi wasallam, then we also went to emigrate to the area (Habasyah). At that time we consisted of myself and two brothers my man. I am the smallest person, while my one brother is Abu Burdah and the other is Abu Ruhm. " Abu Musa said; 'They consist of several people or fifty-three people or fifty-two people from our people.' Abu Musa said; 'We sailed until carried away by our boat to Raja Najasyi in Habasyah. Then we joined Ja'far bin Abu Talib and his entourage on the side of Raja Najasyi. Ja'far said; 'Verily the Messenger of Allaah' alaihi wasallam has sent us here. Besides that, he also told us to stay here. Because of that, stay with you. ' Abu Musa said; 'Then we stayed with Ja'far until we all arrived.' Abu Musa said; 'We all met with the Messenger of Allaah' alaihi wasallam when he won the war of Khaibar. He gave us the spoils of war. He did not give any spoils of war to anyone who did not participate in the conquest of Khaibar, except for those who fought with him and those who joined our group with Ja'far and his friends. ' Abu Musa said; 'There are some people who told us who joined the migratory voyage to Habasyah; 'We outperform you on the issue of migration.' Abu Musa said; 'Asma' bint Umais, who belonged to our shipping group, had visited the house of Hafshah, the wife of the Messenger of Allaah alaihi wasallam. Asma 'had once moved to Raja Najasyi.' At one time Umar bin Khaththab entered the house of Hafshah, incidentally Asma 'was there. When Umar saw Asma 'in the house, he asked; 'Who is this, Hafshah? 'Hafshah answered; 'He is Asma' bint Umais! 'Umar asked again; 'Has he ever moved to Habasyah by sailing? 'Asma' bint Umais answered; 'Yes, I also moved to Habasyah.' Umar continued his words; 'Then we are more entitled to the Messenger of Allah than you.' Asma 'gets angry and says; 'You lie hai Umar! By Allah, you indeed accompanied the hijrah of the Messenger of Allaah alaihi wasallam.

But he feeds those who are hungry among you and gives advice to those who do not understand among you, while we emigrate to a very remote country in Habasyah which is full of challenges because of Allah and His Messenger. By Allah, I will not eat or drink before I report your words to the Messenger of Allaah alaihi wasallam. Because we feel insulted and worried. Therefore, I will raise this issue with the Messenger of Allaah alaihi wasallam. For the sake of Allah. I am not lying and not making it up. ' Abu Musa said; 'When the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wasallam came to the house of Hafshah, then Asma 'immediately confronted him and complained about the problem that was holding him back; 'Yes the Messenger of Allah, Umar bin Khaththab said this and so.' Hearing the complaint of Asma bint Umais, the Messenger of Allaah 'alaihi wasallam said:' Know by you Asma, Umar is not a person more entitled than you to me. Umar and his companions only received a reward for one reward. On the contrary, those of you who joined in the hijrah by riding the boat got two rewards for hijrah. ' Asma 'bint Umais said; 'After that, I saw Abu Musa and the companions who joined in moving to Habasyah by riding a boat coming in droves to ask me about this hadith. There is nothing in this world that is more pleasing and uplifting and what the Messenger of Allah said to them. ' Abu Burdah said; 'Asma' said; 'Really I saw Abu Musa and he asked me to repeat the hadith again. "
