112 SIRRUL-KHILAFAH-THE REALITY OF KHILAFAH وَمَهُمَا أَشَارَ الْمُصْطَفَى قَامَ كَالْجَرِي وَكَانَ لِذَاتِ الْمُصْطَفَى مِثْلَ ظِلّه He was like the shadow of the Chosen Prophets. Whatever the Prophet asked for, he came forward bravely. جَمِيعًا سِوَى الشَّيْئِ الْحَقِيرِ الْمُحَقَّرِ وَاعْطَى لِنَصْرِ الدِّيْنِ أَمْوَالَ بَيْتِهِ For the sake of supporting Islam, he gave all his wealth. He kept nothing but the very minimal for himself. وَلَمَّا دَعَاهُ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ أَقْبَلَ شَائِقًا غَيْرَ مُدْبِرِ نَبِيُّنَا لِرِفَاقَةٍ When our Prophet called him to accompany him, He rushed headlong into the jaws of death and never once looked back. وَإِنْ كُنْتَ قَدْ أَزْمَعْتَ جَوْرًا فَعَيِّرِ وَلَيْسَ مَحَلَّ الطَّعْنِ حُسْنُ صِفَاتِهِ His good qualities cannot be challenged. If you are unjustly challenging them then check and reflect. وَجَاءَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مِنْ كُلِّ مَعْبَرٍ آبَادَ هَوَى الدُّنْيَا لِإِحْيَاءِ دِينِهِ He killed every worldly desire to revive the Faith. He came to the Messenger of Allah by all means. لِتَنْظُرَ أَوْصَافَ الْعَتِيقِ الْمُطَهَّرِ عَلَيْكَ بِصُحْفِ اللَّهِ يَا طَالِبَ الْهُدَى O seeker of guidance, you must read the Scriptures of Allah To see the descriptions of such a purified nobleman.
