10th Year of Hijra - Last years of Prophet

MAIN EVENTS:
Years of Delegation
The 9th-10th years of Hijra were known as the Years of Delegation as people from all over
Arabia came and accepted islam or entered into alliance with the muslims. Two false prophets
appeared in these years, but one was killed. These years were also full of challenges as an
expedition against the tribes on the borders of Syria under the leadership of 18 year old Usama
bin Zaid was sent. The Prophet also reviewed the Quran twice in Ramadan before his death.

The Hajj
The Holy Prophet announced that he is offering Hajj. 10,00 Muslims accompanied him to
Makkah.

8th Zilhaj
The Prophet was at Mina where he performed all the Prayers at their respective time.

9th ZilHajj
At Arafat near Jabl e Rehmat, he gave his last sermon and 100,000 muslims listened to it.

The last Sermon - 10th A.H.


The Holy Prophet addressed the muslims saying “O People! Listen to my words, I don’t
know whether I shall be among you again after this year. Therefore, listen to what I am
saying to you carefully, and take these words to those who could not be present today.”
Then he spoke about human rights saying that the life, property, and honor of every muslim is
sacred and so goods entrusted to Muslims should be returned to their rightful owners and no
one should be hurt in any way.
He also spoke about women’s rights and said that they should be treated with kindness, and
should be clothed and fed. Wives have rights over their husbands and husbands have rights
over them, and both are committed partners to each other. He also said that women should not
make friends with someone their husbands disapprove of and should not commit adultery.
The Prophet further stated that all muslims are equal and being black, white, Arab or non Arab
is not the criteria for being superior. It is only the good deeds that matter to Allah.
He also emphasized on the rights of slaves saying that they should be treated well and should
be clothed and fed according to what their masters themselves eat and wear. If masters do not
find it easy to overlook the mistakes of slaves then they should part themselves from the slaves
rather than treat them harshly.
The Prophet then advised muslims to adhere to the Quran and Sunnah saying, “I leave
behind me two things, the Quran and my example, the Sunnah, and if you follow these,
you will never go astray.”
He also emphasized on the performance of the pillars of Islam.
Then the Prophet warned the muslims to beware of Shaytan and not fall into his traps as he will
do his best to mislead them and provoke them to commit minor sins. He also reminded muslims
of the day of judgment and clearly stated that he is the last messenger to all and there will be no
prophet after him. He asked the muslims to convey this message to all those who were absent
and ended his sermon by asking the crowd to be his witnesses that he received the revelation
“This day I have perfected your religion for you, and completed my favor upon you.”
