The Sealed Nectar

 The Sealed Nectar by Shaykh Safi ur-Rahman

19.The Delegation.

In the eleventh year of Prophethood, while the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was at Aqabah, he met a group of men from Madinah and called them to Islam. They were neighbours of the Jews and had heard mention of a Prophet, who was about to come. They accepted his teachings and became Muslims.

The following year, twelve people from Madinah met the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and gave him their pledge that, they would believe in One God and worship Him alone. They also pledged that, they would not steal nor would they kill their children. This is known as the First Pledge of Aqabah.

The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) also sent with them, Mus’b ibn Umayr. Musb was a young handsome man who knew how to recite the Qur’an very well. He went to Madinah, preached Islam to the people, and led them in prayer.

The next year, Mus’b ibn Umayr returned to Makkah, with seventy-three men and two women of Madinah. They all met with the Prophet (peace be upon him) and pledged their allegiance to him, and promised to protect him. This is known as the second pledge of Aqabah.
