The Biography of the sword of Allah “Khalid bin Walid”, MAPH (Part 25)
Hazrat Khalid, may Allah be pleased with him, during the reign of Siddiq Akbar, MAPH
In the previous sections, the participation of Hazrat Khalid ibn Walid, may Allah be pleased with him, in various campaigns, along with the Holy Prophet of Islam, was discussed, and now in this section, we want to investigate his participation in the wars and conquests of the caliphate of Hazrat Siddiq Akbar, may Allah be pleased with him; therefore, before we go to the main topic, as a brief introduction to the state of the Muslims after the death of the beloved Prophet of Islam, peace be upon him, we will discuss it and then enter the topic.
Jihad against apostates and claimants of Prophethood
After the Holy Prophet of Islam, PBUH, preached the call to faith for twenty-three years in the Arabian Peninsula and neighboring countries, people converted to the holy religion of Islam. But because the faith of the people around had not yet been strengthened and they had not sat with the Holy Prophet, PBUH, so that the sweetness of faith would take root in their hearts, the Prophet, PBUH, accepted his friend’s invitation and said goodbye to the mortal world and gave up life.
This created a negative effect on some new Muslim people, so that upon hearing the news of the death of the Holy Prophet, PBUH some people returned to their previous religion, while others remained on the Islamic religion, but they avoided giving zakat and so on; A number of hypocritical people took advantage of this vacuum and wanted to place themselves in the place of the Prophet (PBUH) and claim to be a prophet. But Hazrat Siddiq along with his dedicated companions and dear Companions did not hold hands and did not observe this situation; Rather, they immediately declared Jihad in order to block these seditions and fought against all those who apostatized or denied zakat or claimed Prophethood and erased them all from the face of existence so that no one would think that the Messenger of Allah, PBUH, left and ended. His efforts and sacrifices went with him. No; Rather, everyone should know that the holy religion of Islam is from Almighty Allah, He is always alive and never dies; Therefore, no one can raise his head for sedition.
One of the people who was wholeheartedly under the command of Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq (MAPH) and was with him in various fields, is Hazrat Khalid ibn Walid (MAPH) who was able to achieve many conquests and progress from those Muslims with great courage. In this section, we also want to write a part of the achievements of Hazrat Khalid, MAPH.
Hazrat Khaled, MAPH, and Taliha Asadi Accursed (Malo’on)
One of the people who thinks that the beloved Prophet of Islam, PBUH, has passed away, and that the field of Da’wah has become empty for him, and he has made the Islamic Ummah oblivious to the pure teachings of Islam and led them to his sinister and self-serving lessons; is Taliha Ibn Khuwaylid Asadi. The one who claimed that the door of Prophethood has not been closed and the series of caravans of prophets continues. He said that I am one of the people to whom revelation is revealed and you should believe in me and forget your previous religion.
Allamah Shalabi, may Allah have mercy on him, writes: He claimed that Hazrat Gabriel Amin (peace be upon him) descends on him and conveys divine revelation to him. Therefore, he ordered his followers not to pray while standing and to avoid prostrating, and those who joined him were his relatives and Arab speakers, and they supported him based on their racial prejudice. If Bani Asad, Ghatfan, Taye, Abs and Zabian were among the people who rushed to his aid.
