Al-Hamza stopped and looked at the girl.

Al-Hamza stopped and looked at the girl. The girl sadly said: Aba Amara, Abu Jahal mistreated your nephew Muhammad. Al-Hamza asked: Did he mistreated him? The girl said: He came across him on the road. He abused him and put some dust on his head. Al-Hamza was filled with anger. He hit his horse with the bow. The horse jumped angrily. Al-Hamza headed for the Ka'aba. He used to pass by the men and greet them when he came back from hunting. This time, he was angry for our Master Muhammad [s].

So, he did not greet anyone and went directly to Abu Jahal. Al-Hamza jumped off his horse like the lion. He raised his bow and hit Abu Jahal on the head. Abu Jahal was afraid when he saw al-Hamza angry. So, he said humbly: Aba Amara, he has abused our gods and stultified our thoughts. Al-Hamza shouted angrily: Answer me if you can! The outcry of truth sounded in the yard of the Ka'aba. Al-Hamza said loudly: I confess that there's no god but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle.

Al-Hamza angrily looked at Abu Jahal and said: Why did you abuse him? Don't you know that I follow his religion. Abu Jahal bent his head humbly and kept silent. The foolish persons escaped with alarm. While al-Hamza was in tears, he embraced our Master Muhammad [s]. Our Master Muhammad [s] became happy when his uncle al-Hamza became Muslim. So, he named him the Lion of Allah and the Lion of His Apostle. **The Birthday ** Al-Hamza was born in 570 AD., namely in the year of the Elephant.

He was our Master Muhammad's foster brother, for a woman called Thwaibah suckled them. Al-Hamza was brave and strong. He became Muslim in the second year of our Master Muhammad's mission. The men knew that al-Hamza believed in Islam. So, the Muslims became happy. But the polytheists became sad. Some Muslims hid their belief in Islam because they were afraid of Quraish.

When al-Hamza became Muslim, a new time began - our Master Muhammad's followers became strong, so the Quraish were afraid of them and had a thousand apprehensions about them. The Ninth Year after the Mission Nine years after our Master Muhammad's mission passed. The number of the Muslims increased. Umar bin al-Khattab was very sensitive. One day, he took his sword to kill our Master Muhammad [s]. He asked about him. It was said to him: He's with his in a house near al-Safa Mount.

So, Umar headed for him. On the way to al-Safa Mount, a man belonging to the tribe of Umar named Naeem came across and asked him: Umar, where are you going?
