Holy Prophet of Islam - Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa — Page 121

The Holy Prophet of Islam, Hadrat Muhammad Mustafa sa sa sa sa would be defeated in the expedition of Tabūk and the Holy Prophet™ would be killed. Thus, they were expecting soon to become the rulers of Medina. . However, when they found out that the Holy Prophet was returning to. Medina after great successes in the battle, they were very much disheartened and were fearful that now they would be punished for their conspiracies against the Muslims about which the Holy Prophet has come to know. To get out of this terrible situation they were facing, they conspired to kill the Holy Prophet" on the way back to Medina. In fact, the scheme was hatched even before the Holy Prophet had left for the expedition of Tabūk and a few hypocrites were travelling as part of the. Muslim army to carry out this plan, when necessary. At some distance from Medina the returning army had to pass through a narrow mountain pass. The passage was so narrow that one person could pass through it at a time. When the Holy Prophet" and his Companions" reached close to the narrow passage it was night time and it was dark. Taking advantage of the darkness, the hypocrites who were travelling with the Holy Prophet as part of the Muslim force rushed and went ahead towards the mountain pass and hid themselves close to the narrow passage. They had planned to kill the Holy Prophet" in the narrow passage. God Almighty revealed to the. Holy Prophet about the heinous plan of the hypocrites. The Holy. Prophet sent Ḥadrat Ḥudhaifa bin Yamān" to survey the area. When. Hadrat Hudhaifa bin Yamän" reached the narrow passage area he found a few men with faces covered hiding in the area. When they saw Ḥadrat. Hudhaifa bin Yamän" they ran away. The Holy Prophet did not like to pursue them so he let them go. God Almighty had informed the Holy. Prophet the names of the hypocrites hiding near the narrow passage and planning to kill him. The Holy Prophet" told Hadrat Hudhaifa bin Yamān' the names of these people. Therefore, Hadrat Hudhaifa bin Yamān“ was known as: sa sa sa sa ra sa га sa га sa ra صَاحِبُ سِرّ رَسُوْلِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْمُنَافِقِيْنَ 121
