Julaybib | |
---|---|
Julaybib was a companion of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and martyr in the early Muslim community.
His name was acquired prior to his acceptance of Islam and is considered semantically unusual in Arabic; julaybib means "small grown" being the diminutive form of the word jalbab, referring to Julaybib's unusually short stature. Sources also describe him as being damim, suggesting physical unattractiveness or deformity.
Julaybib's lineage was unknown and there is no record of his parents or what tribe he belonged to. [1] [ citation needed ] All that was known of him was that he was an Arab and that he was one of the Ansar in Medina.
Muhammad suggested Julaybib as a match for a woman from the Ansar known for her beauty, modesty, and devotion. While the girl's parents—particularly the mother—were unsatisfied with the proposal at first, the daughter willingly consented and was married to Julaybib. [2] The couple lived together until he was martyred in an expedition soon after. It is said that Julaybib's wife was the most eligible unmarried woman in Medina. [1]
Soon after his marriage, Julaybib participated in a military expedition with Muhammad and was martyred.
A hadith found in Sahih Muslim reports that after the expedition when accounting for missing persons, Muhammad ordered a search for Julaybib. He was found lying next to seven enemies he had slain in the battle before being killed. When he was found, Muhammad said, "He is from me and I am from him," and then he lifted Julaybib's body himself. Thereafter, he was buried. [3] Some sources in the Islamic tradition report that the sky was filled with thousands of angels who had come to participate in his funeral.

The title Amir al-Mu'minin was held by Umar ibn Khattab who was also the first one to be given this title.
The Battle of Badr, also referred to as The Day of the Criterion in the Qur'an and by Muslims, took place on March 15, 624 CE, near the present-day city of Badr, Al Madinah Province in Saudi Arabia.

Muhsin ibn Ali, also spelled Mohsin, was the youngest son of Fatima bint Muhammad and Ali ibn Abi Talib, and thus a maternal grandson of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.

Alternatively, Sunnis hold that Muhsin died in infancy of natural causes.
