Lives of Sahaba 12 - Umar b. Al-Khattab 1 - Early Life and Conversion to Islam - Sh. Dr. Yasir Qadhi
View all previous videos in this series here: • Lives of the Sahaba - Series
In this video, Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi begins to cover the life of Umar Ibn Al-Khattab (ra), one of the greatest companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the 2nd khalifa after Abu Bakr As-Siddiq (ra).
Umar once set out to kill the Prophet (salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam)... today he's buried next to him!
Once a staunch enemy of Islam he became the man who brought victory and glory to the Muslims.
His name is Umar b. al-Khattab, his title is the 'Leader of the Believers', and his legacy of conquests of great empires amazes historians to this day.
The Muslims forever remained in honor when Umar was alive and Umar's honor was raised by becoming the son-in-law of the al-ahl bayt through marrying Umm Kulthum the daughter Ali b. Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with them all).
