Hazrat Owais Qarni and his adoration for Prophet
Owais Qarni’s is a story that sets a model for every one of the Muslims as how even without meeting the Prophet Muhammad (harmony arrive), one may in any case acquire Allah’s approval and His pleasure, by virtue of his resolute love for the Prophet Muhammad (harmony arrive).
Owais Qarni (may Allah favor him) would never meet the Prophet (harmony arrive) face to face, however he is ostensibly the solitary individual in Islamic history who is said to have been concurred the situation with sahabi (buddy) by as a matter of fact Prophet Muhammad (harmony arrive) himself. (To be a partner, it required the rule of meeting the Prophet while having confidence.)
Imam Muslim named one full part in his quite possibly the most solid books of Hadith in Qarni’s name: “The Virtues of Owais Qarni” in Sahih Muslim. It’s anything but a Hadith citing Umar ibn Al-Khattab, who said: “I heard Allah’s Messenger, harmony arrive, saying: ‘There would come to you Owais b. Amir, of Qarn, a part of the Murid clan, alongside the support of individuals of Yemen. He had been experiencing uncleanliness which would have been relieved yet for the space of a dirham. His treatment with his mom would have been caring. In the event that he would make a vow for the sake of Allah (for something), He would respect it. Request that he ask pardoning for you (from Allah) on the off chance that it is workable for you.”
Qarni was brought into the world in Asir locale of Saudi Arabia, 594CE. His dad, Aamir, was a God-dreading individual. He gave Islamic schooling to his child yet kicked the bucket leaving Owais a vagrant at a youthful age. The family was poor and couldn’t bear the cost of advanced education for him. He committed him to supplicating, fasting and administration to his mom. Owais had significant love for Islam and its Messenger.
Owais discovered that there is an extraordinary compensation in Islam for serving guardians. His mom was debilitated and daze. So he committed himself exclusively to the assistance of his mom.
He was 28 years old when Holy Prophet (harmony arrive) had moved to Madinah Munawwarah. He wanted to visit him, yet was distracted with the assistance of his wiped out mother. However he would keep a tab on the improvements in Hijaz.
At the point when he found out about the pitiful information on the Battle of Ohud (625CE), when a tooth of the Prophet was martyred, Qarni out of adoration for him, broke every one of his teeth. Along these lines was his affection for the Holy Prophet (harmony arrive).
The Holy Prophet (harmony arrive) thought about Qarni and his affection for him. He once informed Omar ibn Khattab concerning Qarni and had anticipated that Omar would meet Qarni after his (the Prophet’s) takeoff from the world. He gave every one of the insights regarding him and encouraged him to look for petitions for his absolution and for the entire Ummah.
The friends inquired as to whether they could see him yet the Holy Prophet (harmony arrive) answered: “No, lone Omar receptacle Khattab and Ali would meet him,” and gave character signs of Qarni. He coordinated Omar and Ali: “When you see him, pass on to him my salaam and request that he appeal to God for my Ummah.”
During Prophet (harmony arrive) last days, he requested that Omar and Ali pass his Jubba (the favored shroud) to Qarni and request him to appeal to God for the pardoning from the Muslim Ummah. This shows the commended status of Qarni.
Qarni, the Prophet is said to have commented, is the awesome tabeiin, (second era of the associates). Qarni scoured the favored shroud over his face and eyes, and kissed it, when he at long last got it. The favored shroud, it is said, is saved in Istanbul, Turkey.
Alluding to Qarni, the Holy Prophet (harmony arrive) when told his friends: “There is an individual in my Ummah whose supplications would carry pardoning to however many delinquents as the quantity of the sheep in the clans of Rabia and Mudar.”
The two clans of Rabia and Mudar were notable for raising sheep during the hour of the Holy Prophet (harmony arrive).
Usair canister Jabir announced that when individuals from Yemen came to help (the Muslim armed force during fight), Caliph Omar would ask them: “Is there among you Owais receptacle Amir? (He kept discovering him out) until he met Qarni. He revealed to him the truism of Holy Prophet (harmony arrive) about him and asked him for his petition and said: “Where do you expect to go?
He said: To Kufa.
Umar said: Let me compose a letter for you to its lead representative,
However, Owais said: I love to live among the needy individuals.
Umar was dazzled with his basic character and requested that Owais Qarni appeal to God for him. He answered, “I appeal to God for the absolution of everybody toward the finish of each supplication. On the off chance that you keep your confidence in Allah and His Messenger (harmony arrive), you will accept my supplications in your graves.”
Here is the popular summon of Owais Qarni: “O Allah, You made me when I was not deserving of notice; And You accommodated me when I had nothing; And I violated my spirit and trespassed, and I admit my blame. In the event that You pardon me, that will not the slightest bit diminish Your sway; And on the off chance that You rebuff me, that will not the slightest bit increase Your power. You can discover others to rebuff other than me, But I can track down nobody to excuse me except for You. Genuinely, You are the most Merciful of the individuals who show benevolence. The Holy Prophet (harmony arrive) said “Owais will come to Madinah to meet me, yet he won’t discover me truly, for I will then, at that point be joined with my Lord.”
At the point when individuals in Qarn started worshiping him and thinking of him as a holy person, by virtue of his status in Islam, he left Qarn for Kufa where he occupied with granting Islamic training.
Afterward, he partook in the tragic Battle of Siffin (37AH) where he was lethally injured, hence biting the dust at 63 years old. He was covered at Al-Raqqah, Syria. An excellent Aal-Zaria Mosque as Jaame Owais Qarni remains at Qarn in Asir district and another Owais Qarni Mosque in Ilford UK.
The adoration for the Holy Prophet is the help that can be accomplished without meeting him. This opens the entryway for a great many Muslims living in various regions and periods of the world.
The existence of Owais Qarni urges us to cherish Holy Prophet (Peace arrive) however we have not seen him and to get higher positions as got by Owais.
