Hazrat Bilal (May Allah shower His mercy on him) was one the most beloved companion of Hazrat Mohammad (peace be upon him). The role of Hazrat Bilal (R.A) holds a lot of importance in Islam due to the unlimited sacrifices he made for the sake of Allah and our beloved Prophet (PBUH).
Hazrat Bilal was basically a black African and he belonged to the Western Arabia. Hazrat Bilal (R.A) grew up as an imprisoned child and spent his whole childhood as a slave. His name at first was Bilal-e-Habshi and that name was given to him due to his black complexion. The Muslims from entire world come every year to visit his grave thru cheap best UK umrah services Packages 2019 for families with Visa, flight and Transportation.
Embracing Islam was quite difficult for Hazrat Bilal (R.A) because he was the slave of Non-Believers. After accepting Islam, the rank of Hazrat Bilal (R.A) was raised. The man who used to be a slave, got the title of Sayyid al-Mu’azzineen which means the leader of the Mu’azzins.
This shows the beauty of Islam that it doesn’t see from which race you belong to and what is the color of your skin. The superiority to any person is given based on how pious he is and how much Taqwa he is having.
The Master of Hazrat Bilal (R.A) was a Non-Muslim and he was so strict in his beliefs that he highly rejected the teachings of Islam. When he heard that his slave Bilal has accepted Islam, he became mad with anger.
There was not a single torture that wasn’t implied on Hazrat Bilal (R.A). From tying him to chains, to beating him with lashes and burning him with fire heat, all the extreme kinds of physical tortures were given to Hazrat Bilal (R.A) that you can’t even imagine. But he stayed firm in his beliefs and didn’t think for once that he should revert back to his old religion.
There is a mosque in Madinah which is named after Hazrat Bilal (R.A) and it is called Masjid-e-Bilal. There is a date market near the famous Masjid-e-Nabvi and with that date market lies the holy Masjid-e- Bilal.
