Story of Hazrat Bilal

Muslims are present in almost every region of the world. Due to a survey, it has been noted that the Islam is the most practised religion in the world. As being a Human it’s our psychology to get to know more about our religion and know about the people who was the companion of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H).

It is the most common asked question by the people about the Hazrat Bilal. As he is the most famous companion of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H). He is among the loyal and truth worthy companion of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) so today I decide to tell the brief distribution of the life of Hazrat Bilal. Which is as follow,

Early life :

Hazrat Bilal was born in slavery. His father was head of the tribe and her mother was also but they lost in battle and become the slaves. Before the invent of Islam, salve markets thrived in the Arabian Peninsula. Bilal Bin Rabah was brought by a Quraysh Umayyah Bin Khalaf, a fierce believer in idol worship. Bilal’s duties were to graze his master's camels during the day and take care of his meals in the evenings. His master was very cruel and harsh to him. In the time of Dark Age when the people used to worship idols, he came to know about the Messenger of Allah. And his message he got attracted to him.

Embracing of Islam :

Hazrat Bilal was the one who accepted the Islam at the early age. He accepts Islam when people of Quraysh used to torture Muslims and even kill them. When his master heard that he had accepted Islam he gave the Bilal much torture, but he was steadfast in belief in Allah.

The Free Man :

When Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) came to know that Umayyah is torturing Hazrat Bilal and trying everything to make him deny the message of Allah Almighty. He then orders Hazrat Abu Bakr to buy Hazrat Bilal and make him a free man. He without any question he did so and Umayyah agreed to sell Bilal. After that, he becomes a free man and become the part of the group who stayed close to the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) and learn the teaching of Islam.

And when the torture of people of Makkah cross limit then they migrated to the medina. And establish their roots.

The Muezzin :

After the construction of Masjid-e-Nabi, he comes the first one to call people to offer the Namaz and the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) declare him as a first Muezzin of Islam. Due to the magnificent voice he had. And for onwards he used to give Adan for five prayers and the Jumma prayer but after the death of the Holy Prophet his heart was full of sorrows, he becomes unable to fulfil his duty as a Muezzin.

As he was a most loyal and close companion of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) so there was a mosque constructed in Makkah as well as Medina of his memory on the place of its residents it is the interest of the Muslims to do ziyarah of these mosques when they go on Umrah. Now going to Umrah is much easier and cheaper so book Umrah visa for May and fulfil the sacred duty.
