Synopsis

Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه (S2) In the year of grief, Abu Taalib and Khadija (a.s) had passed away. After preaching for 10 years, the Quraysh still barely followed the Messenger ﷺ - He (ﷺ) went to Ta’if and had stones thrown at him. He then asked his uncle Abaas رضي الله عنه if he could accompany him to the Uqas fair to preach. The people there took the message but didn’t accept it out of fear of the Quraysh. In the 11th year of Prophethood, our Messenger ﷺ met 6 members of the Khazraj tribe and preached to them (رضي الله عنهم). They heard the Jews in Madinah speaking of the final Prophet ﷺ and how they’d join him to beat the Khazraj - so the Khazraj men embraced it first! This meeting was a prerequisite to the first Pledge of Aqaba, which occurred in the 11th year of Prophethood. The Khazraj returned and now every household knew who our Messenger ﷺ was. In the 12th year of Prophethood, was the first pledge of Aqabah. 12 men from the Ansar رضي الله عنهم went to meet the Messenger ﷺ during Hajj. Th
