1 . Syedna Ameer Hamza
(RA)
was the uncle of Prophet (S. A. W.). He (RA) was one of the greatest
soldier
of ISLAM. Syedna Ameer Hamza (RA) was killed (SHAHEED) during the
battle of UHAD. He is lying to rest in UHAD Battlefield in the bottom
of
UHAD MOUNT. A boundary wall is built around his grave. There are three
graves in the boundary wall and the longest one is the grave of this
great
soldier of ISLAM. Pilgrims must not forget the visit of UHAD MOUNT and
the grave of Syedna Hamza (RA). The killing of Syedna Hamza (RA) was
very
merciful and Prophet (S. A. W.) remained in sad mood for a long time as
he (S. A. W.) used to love him (RA) very much.
2 . A man named
"VEHSHEE",
was fighting against ISLAM and he was very expert in throwing little
sharp
knife to his aim. He Killed (SHAHEED) Syedna Hamza (RA) throwing his
knife.
After the conquer of Makkah, VEHSHEE migrated to TAIF to save himself
from
the revenge of Muslims. When Muslim conquered Taif, he became worried.
He wanted to be a Muslim but he had no courage to face Prophet Muhammad
(S. A. W.). When someone advised him to go to madina to accept Islam.
Prophet
would not take revenge if you become a Muslim. When VEHSHEE came to
Madina
and presented himself in front of Prophet (S. A. W.) and accepted
Islam,
Prophet (S. A. W.) asked how you killed my loving uncle?
Vehshee replied, "I had no
interest
in war. I was interested to get rid of my slavery. I was the slave of
HIND
( A Kafir woman whose father and brother had been killed in Badar's
Battle)
and she had promised me to free if I would kill Syedna Hamza (RA). I
kept
my eyes on him (RA). He (RA) was fighting bravely. He (RA) killed a
number
of enemies. All of sudden I got a chance and I threw my small knife
over
Syedna Hamza (RA). My aim was at the point and Syedna Hamza (RA) fell
down
and died. When I told this news to HIND, she came on the spot at once
and
cut the ears and nose of this brave soldier. She cut the stomach of
Syedna
Hamza (RA) and tried to swallow his lever. She chewed it but could not
swallow (It is said, if she had swallowed the pious lever of Syedna
Hamza
RA, the fire of Hell would have been ineffective over her but she could
not do this as it was not the consent of Almighty Allah)". When Vehshee
completed the tragic story, beloved Prophet became very gloomy and said
to him, "Although you are muslim now yet you should not come in front
of
me in future. Because when I (S. A. W.) saw you, I memorize my loving
uncle".
Vehshee oftenly used to express his deep regrets over this incident. He
wanted to compensate this event by any good work. He was very much
repentant
.
"If I am responsible to
kill
the most loving personality of Prophet (S. A. W.).
On the other hand I have
the honour to kill the most naughty person of the earth."
