They Slander Her But The Qur'an Honoured Her رضي الله عنها || Ustadh AbdulRahman Hassan

This is a lecture introducing a classical Arabic poem (qasida) written by the Andalusian scholar Ibn Bahij (5th century Hijri) in praise of the Mother of the Believers, Aisha رضي الله عنها. Ustadh AbdulRahman Hassan provides biographical context on the author before walking through the poem's 56 lines, which are written as though Aisha رضي الله عنها herself is speaking declaring her unique virtues: being the Prophet's ﷺ only virgin wife, the one in whose home and on whose chest he died, the woman whose honour Allah defended directly in the Quran across ten verses, and the daughter of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, the greatest of the companions. The lecture is delivered with evident urgency given the modern reality of people openly slandering her, noting that scholars have ruled such slander constitutes disbelief. The second half of the lecture pivots to the towering virtues of Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه his sacrificing all his wealth for the Prophet ﷺ, his companionship in the cave, his courage in fighting the apostates after the Prophet's death, and Jibreel's own testimony to his poverty in the path of Allah. Ustadh AbdulRahman Hassan ties it all together with a powerful message: loving Aisha means cutting ties with those who insult her, and true love of the Prophet ﷺ is inseparable from love of his family and his companions together, not one at the expense of the other.
