[86] Tabuk Part 1 - Rome Conquers Persia | Life of Prophet Muhammad | Sheikh Azhar Nasser

This lecture covers the prelude to the Battle of Tabuk. Key topics include:
Birth of Ibrahim: Upon returning to Medina, the Prophet’s wife Mariya the Coptic gave birth to a son, named Ibrahim. The Angel Gabriel congratulated the Prophet on becoming a father.
Expedition of Tabuk: This was the last military campaign led by the Prophet. It aimed to preempt a rumored Roman invasion and also test the faith and commitment of the Muslim community during extreme summer heat and the harvest season.
Challenges and Sacrifices: The expedition required significant personal sacrifice, including traveling long distances in severe heat and missing the harvest season, leading to financial hardships.
Legitimate Excuses: Some individuals, including the poor, weak, and elderly, were excused from the expedition due to genuine inability to participate, yet their desperately wanted to go.
The Repenters: A group of companions who stayed behind were punished with social ostracism. They later repented and were forgiven after 50 days.
