Mu'adh ibn Jabal, one of the companions who accepted Islam from Madina,
from the tribe of Khazraj. He was one who the Prophet (saws) gave
special responsiblities, especially in the area of da'wah. He is well
known for the hadith of the call to Tawheed where the Prophet (saws)
sent him to Yemen as the governer, judge, teacher of Yemen and told him
that you're coming to a people from the people of the book and the first
thing that you should call them to is the oneness, unique oneness of
Allah. If they accept that, then inform them that Allah has made
obligatory on them five daily prayers and so on and so forth.
Here
we're going to be looking at another occaison in which the Prophet
(saws) gave Mu'adh a special message. A message which Mu'adh conveyed to
the Ummah as a whole. This message contained a special du'a which the
Prophet (saws) taught him and on the basis of which the Prophet (saws)
expressed his great love for Mu'adh.
