Adi bin Hatim at-Ta'i (Died 68 H)

His full name is Adi bin Hatim bin Abdullah bin Saad bin Hasyraj At-Thai, dubbed by Abu Wahab and Abu Rates. Friends who converted to Islam in 9 H is well known as an orator who is very clever. He is a good Thai chieftains during the Islamic period of ignorance and. He has great merit in crushing the apostates and participated in the conquest of Iraq. He was residing in the city of Kufa, and died there.


A number of Arab kings began to accept Islam after they opposed. They were submissive and obedient to Allah. Of Islamic history, there was a story 'Adi bin Hatim at-Tha'i generous. 'Adi inherited leadership of his father as ruler of the tribe at-Tha'i. The Tha'i issuing a quarter of their property as a tax to the 'Adi, to return for his leadership.

When the Prophet preach Islam, the Arabs gradually began to draw near to him, tribe by tribe. However, 'Adi actually see the effect of the Prophet is a threat that will destroy his leadership. Therefore, he was hostile to the Prophet even though he himself has not personally know the noble Prophet.


Nearly twenty years he was hostile to Islam. Until one day her accept propaganda Apostles. Islam 'Adi has its own story. He told himself, the story of an attractive and trustworthy. 'Adi said: Nobody hates Arabs more than I did to the Prophet when he heard the news about him and his preaching activities. I am a leader who is respected and live with my people in my domain. I collect taxes from them a quarter of their income, together with the Arab kings others.


When the Prophet influence grew and multiplied army, I said to the shepherds ontaku slave, "Hey, sweet boy! Prepare a female camel fat and tame, then anchored always near me. When you hear the army of Muhammad or his expedition set foot in this country, please notify me immediately! "


Until one morning, sahayaku come before. He said, "O my Lord! What would do if my master horsemen Muhammad came to this country, then do it now! "


I asked, "Why?" He replied, "I see some flags around the village." Then I asked, "what's that flag?". He replied, "That flag army of Muhammad." 


I was instructed to prepare a camel sahayaku earlier. Immediately I call my wife and my children to immediately go out to a safe, (Sham). There we joined with those religionists with us and stay in their homes. I was in a hurry to collect all the family.

After passing a worrying, it turns out there is my family left behind. Sister left behind in our country, Nejed, along with other Tha'i population. There is no other way for me to pick him up but to return to Tha'i. I kept going with my group to Sham and settled there. I let my sister left in Tha'i, but worried about my heart. When I was in Sham, I got the news, horsemen Muhammad attacked our country. Sister caught and captive, then brought to Yathrib with several other residents.


There they were placed in a prison near the door of the mosque. When the Prophet passed by, say hello to my brother, "O Messenger of Allah! My father had perished. Which
guarantee me has disappeared. So, bestow me the gift that God has given to you. "Apostle asked," Who is guaranteeing you? "Replied my brother," 'Adi bin Hatim! "Rasululah replied," He ran away from God and His Messenger. "After saying that, Prophet went. Tomorrow morning the Prophet passed near my brother. My brother said to him as well as yesterday. Then he answered like that yesterday as well.
The third day the Prophet passed, my brother forgot to greet him. A man beckoned to greet his brother so. My brother stood up to the Prophet and said, "O Messenger of Allah! My father had died. Which guarantee me has disappeared. So, limpahkanlah me the gift that God has given to you. "He replied, "I fulfill your wish!" My brother said, "I want to go to Sham see my family." The Prophet said, "But, you do not rush to go there, before you get a trustworthy person from your father's house to drop. When you get people you trust, tell me. "

After the Prophet went, my brother asked who the man beckoned him so greet the Prophet. It is said that it was Ali ibn Abi Talib.


My brother lived there as a prisoner to come people are believed to bring it to Sham. After the man came, he told the Prophet. He said, "O Messenger of Allah! Has come a group of my people who believed and they agreed to take me. "The Prophet gave my brother clothes, camel for vehicles and shopping taste. So he went along with the group.


We'd always looking for news about my brother and await his arrival. We hardly believe what was reported about Muhammad with all his benefits toward my brother. For The Sake Of Allah! On a day when I was sitting in the family, suddenly appeared a woman in hawdaj (sekedup) towards us. I said, "Well, the daughter of Hatim!" Guess was correct. He is my brother eagerly awaited.


After coming down from the vehicle, he immediately approached me and said, "you leave us, you dzalim! Wife and your children, you take it. However, your father and sister, as well as others you leave. "I replied," O brother! Do not say that! "I managed to calm her down. After that I asked him to tell his experience. Finished, I said to him, "You are clever and smart woman. What do you think about a person named Muhammad was? "He replied," In my opinion, for the sake of Allah, should meet him soon. If he is the Prophet, the most first came fortunately for him. And if he is king, there is no vile you are on his side. You are a king anyway. "


So, I set up my gear, and I went to Medina to the Messenger. Without faith and the book, I heard the news that he once said, "Indeed, I hope that 'Adi bin Hatim converted to Islam in front of me." Up in Yathrib, I go directly to the assembly of the Prophet, when he was in the mosque. I salute him. Hearing my compliments he asked, "Who is it?" I replied, "'Adi bin Hatim!" The Prophet stood
welcome me. He took my hand and brought to her home. When he took me, suddenly an old woman who da'eef (weak) was holding a baby, see him for alms. The old woman talk about the difficulties of his life. He listened to the women talk to completion. I was upright wait.

I said to myself, "By Allah! This is not the custom of kings! "Then he took my hand and walk with me down to his house. Arriving at the house, he took a leather cushion filled with palm fiber, and given to me. He said, "Have you sit on this pillow!" I'm embarrassed. Therefore I said, "you who deserve to sit in it." Prophet replied, "You are more appropriate."


I obey his word and sat down on the pillow. Prophet sat on the ground, because there is no longer a pillow other than that one. I said to myself, "By Allah! This is not the custom of kings. "Then, he turned to me and said, 'Hi' Adi! Have you compare what you profess religion, the Christian with Shabiah? "I answered," It is. "


He asked again, "Are not you collect taxes from the people a quarter of their income. Is not it not lawful according to your religion? "I answered," Yes ". Meanwhile, I was sure the real Muhammad the messenger of God. Then, he said, "O 'Adi! Presumably you are reluctant to accept Islam as a statement that you see on the Muslims, they are poor. For The Sake Of Allah! No longer will treasure abundance among them, so hard to find people who want to receive alms. Or perhaps you are reluctant to enter this religion because Muslims are few in number, while their enemies are many. For The Sake Of Allah! Soon you will hear news of a woman coming from Qadisiyah riding camels to the House without fear of anyone other than Allah. "


"Or perhaps you are reluctant to convert to Islam because it was kings and sultans made up of people who are not Muslims. For The Sake Of Allah! Soon you will hear the White Palace in the land of Babylon (Iraq) captured Muslims and wealth D'Andrea bin Hurmuz moved into theirs. "I was amazed, "Wealth Hurmuz D'Andrea, son?" He replied, "Yes wealth D'Andrea bin Hurmuz." So immediately I say two sentences creed in front of him and I became Muslim.


'Adi bin Hatim God blessed longevity. 'Adi told me again, "Two things that are said to Prophet has proven true. Third stay again. However, it was inevitable. I have witnessed a woman driving camels come from Qadisiyah without fear to anyone, so she gets to the House. And I was horsemen who first attacked the entrance to the warehouse treasury D'Andrea and seize its assets. I swear by Allah, the third would have happened anyway.


God must prove every word of His noble Prophet. The third incident occurred during the reign of Caliph 'Umar ibn' Abdul Aziz. Namely, when the wealth evenly among Muslims. At that time everyone is searching hard person who is entitled to receive zakat. However, they do not get people who are willing to accept, because Muslims live well off entirely. It is true that the exact words of the Prophet and also oath 'Adi bin Hatim. May Allah be pleased with her.


In the ninth year of Hijrah, several Arab kings began to draw closer to Islam after they run away from Islam. Their hearts are tender accept the faith once opposed. They surrendered, submissive and obedient to the Messenger after reluctantly. There was a story 'Adi bin Hatim at-Tha'i "generous as his father.


'Adi kepemimpnan inherited from his father. Therefore, the rate at-Tha'i lifted so the tribal ruler. The Tha'i issuing a quarter of their property as a tax which gave it to Adi, as a reward for his leadership to lead the tribe.


When the Prophet proclaimed Islamic da'wah, Arabs came to the Messenger of tribal order. 'Adi see the influence of the Prophet as a threat that will destroy his leadership. Therefore, he was hostile to the Prophet with a tough stance. Though he himself has not personally know the noble Prophet. He hated the Prophet before meeting with the person. Nearly twenty years he was hostile to Islam, until one day her airy receive the right da'wah.


Islam 'Adi has its own story that can not be forgotten. Therefore, let us see, he tells his own story, the story of an attractive and trustworthy. 'Adi said:Nobody hates Arabs more than I did to the Prophet when I heard the news about him and his preachings activities. I am a respected leader. I live with my people in my domain. I collect taxes from them a quarter of their income, together with the Arab kings others. Therefore when I heard the Messenger of proselytizing, I hate it. When the influence and power of the Prophet b ertambah large and multiply scattered troops in Eastern and Arab countries, I said to the shepherds ontaku slave, "Hey, sweet boy! Prepare a female camel fat and tame, then anchored always near me. When you hear the army of Muhammad or his expedition set foot in this country, please notify me immediately! "


So, one morning sahayaku came to me. He said, "O my Lord! What would do if horsemen Tuanku Muhammad came to this country, then do it now! "I asked," Why? "He replied," I see some flags around the village. Then I ask, what flag it. The answer, that's flag army of Muhammad ".Then, I commanded sahayaku, "Prepare camel that I command you, bring it here." I got up, when it also I called my wife and my children to immediately go to the land that we consider safe, (Sham). There we joined with our co-religionists people and resides in their home. I was in a hurry to collect all the family. After passing a worrying, it turns out there among my family left behind. Sister left behind in our country, Nejed, along with other Tha'i. There is no other way for me to get it except back to Tha'i. I kept going with my group to Sham and settled there in the midst of the population of the same religion with me. I let my sister left in Tha'i, but worried about my heart.


Meanwhile, when I was in Sham, I get news, horsemen Muhammad attacked our country. Sister caught along with a number of women into captivity, and then they were taken to Yathrib. There they were placed in a prison near the door of the mosque. When the Prophet passed by, say hello to my brother, "O Messenger of Allah! My father had perished. Which menjaminku has disappeared. So, bestow me the gift that God has given to you. "Apostle asked," Who is guaranteeing you? "Replied my brother," Adi bin Hatim! "Rasululah replied," He ran away from God and His Messenger. "After saying that, the Prophet go away. Tomorrow morning the Prophet passing too close to my brother. My brother said to him as well as yesterday. And he answered like yesterday anyway. The third day the Prophet passed, my brother forgot to greet him and did not speak to him. A man beckoned to me in order to greet him. My brother stood up to the Prophet and said, "O Messenger of Allah! My father had died. Which
guarantee me has disappeared. So, affluent me the gift that God has given to you. "

He replied, "I fulfill your wish!" My brother said, "I want to go to Sham meet my family there." The Prophet said, "But, you do not rush to go there, before you get a trustworthy person from your father's house to drop . When you get people you trust, tell me. "


After the Prophet went, my brother asked who the man beckoned him so greet the Prophet. Saying to him, that person was Ali ibn Abu Talib.


My brother lived in Medina as prisoners until the coming of people are believed to bring it to Sham. After the man came, he told the Prophet. He said, 'O Messenger of Allah! Has come a group of my people who believed and they agreed to take me. Prophet gave my brother clothes, camel for vehicles and shopping taste. So he went along with the group.


The word 'Adi, furthermore, "We'd always looking for news about my brother and await his arrival. We hardly believe what is preached to us about Muhammad with all his kindness to my brother, in addition to my high sense of him. For The Sake Of Allah! On a day when I was sitting in the family, suddenly appeared a woman in hawdaj (sekedup) toward us. "I said," Well, that girl Hatim! "Guess it's true. He was my brother who ditunggu- wait on.


After coming down from the vehicle, he immediately approached me and said, "you leave us, you dzalim! Wife and your children, you take it. However, your father and sister, as well as others you left. "

And if he is king, there is no vile you are on his side. You are a king anyway. "


'Adi said, "So, I set up my gear, and I went to Medina to the Messenger. Without Faith and the Book, I heard the news that he once said, "Actually I hope that 'Adi bin Hatim converted to Islam in front of me."
