Abstract: (984 Views) |
One of the exceptional personalities among the companions of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.), is Jabir Ibn Abdullah Ansari, who had a high role and position in the history of early Islam. Historical sources introduce this great companion as one of the first residents of Madinah, who brought Islam to Madinah with his father before the Holy Prophet's (s.a.w.a.) migration from Mecca to Madinah. After the martyrdom of his father in the battle of Uhud, Jabir participated in most of the campaigns of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) and recorded many of the events that occurred. Biographers introduce his name as one of the first to defend the righteousness and high position of Amirul Momineen (a.s.) and Ahl-e- Bayt (a.s.). He played an effective role in expressing his (a.s.) virtues and introducing him as the true Imam during his Imamate in the form of narrating important traditions such as Hadith-e-Ghadeer, Hadis-e-Manzilat, Hadith-e-Thaqalain, etc. Jabir's scientific and moral character is such that most of the historians and traditionalists of the Islamic sects consider him to be the most prolific in narrations and the preserver of the Prophet's (s.a.w.a.) Sunnah. They introduce him as a trustworthy person. This feature caused us to conduct research in a library style to the best of our ability to familiarize ourselves with the performance and introduction of this great companion and present untold aspects of his life to the readers.
