-Fiddy Cent get shot and he couldn’t shut up about it!

I've been shot 9 times my nigga that's why I walk funny

Hit in the jaw once, why I talk funny …Does that make him a true man?! 

-On the other hand you’ve got the likes of Khalid bin Waleed, who’s on his deathbed…  

"I have fought in more than 100 battles. Do you see a space of the span of a hand on my leg,

chest, arm which is not covered by some scar of the wound of a sword or an arrow or a

lance? And here I am, dying in my bed, like cattle die. May the eyes of cowards never sleep."

-Rick Ross’ persona is that of a drug kingpin/thug

I'm lookin' thug in a Bentley

got a few slugs, don't temp me

…Does that make him a true man?! 

He had to cancel a string of concert dates after being threatened by the Gangster Disciples

street gang. “We pressing up on you, and the whole Maybach. Everybody on your label is in

trouble.” - Gangster Disciples 

Jan 28. 2013 - While accelerating away from the shooters, Ross, who is believed to have

been driving, crashed his Rolls Royce Phantom into a building.

-On the ot her hand you’ve got the likes of Abu Dujana… 

Abu Dujana was a man of courage who used to stand proud and brave in war. He had a red

headband that he wore round his head. Whenever he was head-banded everybody knew

that he was determined to fight to death.

During the battle of Uhud he (peace be upon him) drew his sword, held it in his hand and

called out to his Sahaba and said, "Who is ready to take this sword and fulfill it's right?"

Many notable Sahaba set out to take it. Amongst them were 'Ali bin Abi Talib, Az-Zubair bin

Al-'Awwam and 'Umar bin Al-Khattab. But it was granted to none of them . Abu Dujana

stood and inquired, "O Messenger of Allah, what is its price?" The Prophet (peace be upon

him) said, "It is to strike the enemy's faces with it until it breaks!" So Abu Dujana said, "O

Messenger of Allah, I will take it for that price." and he was given the sword...

- Ka’ab radiAllahu anhu narrates: 

Similarly I saw an armed Muslim waiting for him. I walked towards them till I stood behind

him (the Muslim). Comparing both of them, I considered that the Kafir was superior to the

other in arms and size. I kept on watching them while they engaged in man-to-man combat.

The Muslim raised his sword up and swung it down hard on the Kafir, so forcefully that the

blade went down his hip and split him in half. When the Muslim unveiled his face, he looked

at me and said, "What do you think of that, Ka'ab? I am Abu Dujana."

in January of 2009, MMA fighter Georges St-Pierre was looking to settle a score withrival BJ Penn. 

The bout was eventually stopped in between the fourth and fifth rounds when Penn was

unable to continue… Following the match, St -Pierre came under fire when it was

discovered that corner man Phil Nurse applied Vaseline to his face, chest and back 

-On the other hand, you’ve got the likes of Ikramah bin A bi Jahal

Khalid bin al Waleed said at the martyrdom of Ikramah bin Abi Jahal during the battle of 

Hims, "If only 'Umar bin al Khattab could see my cousin lying like this, he would know that 

we mount spear-points like other people mount horses." 

Wilt Chamberlain’s notorious claim… 

In Wilt Chamberlain's autobiography, he famously claimed that he slept with 20,000

women in his lifetime. “I was just doing what was natural — chasing good-looking ladies,

whoever they were and wherever they were.” Does that make him a man?!

-On the other hand, you’ve got the likes of Sa’ad al Aswad As Sulumi  

This MAN doesn’t even have any money to get married; no one wants to give their daughterto him. The Prophet (salAlahu Alahi Wa Salam) arranges his nikah, arranges the money for

mahr…he’s in the marketplace to buy a gift for his wife. 

While at the market place, he hears the call to arms to prepare for battle. Sa’ad stood

where he was and looked into the heavens. He said, “Oh Allah, I will buy something with

this wealth that will please you. Oh Allah.” He bought a sword and a horse and he covered

his face from the view of the messenger. He knew that if the Prophet saw him he would

send him home because he had just gotten married.

The Sahaba were questioning, “who is this man riding into battle with his face covered?”

Ali replied, “He is coming to fight, leave him.” Sa’ad valiantly rode into battle, andeventually his horse was struck. He stood up, and the prophet saw his dark skin.

The prophet asked him, “Oh Sa’ad is that you?!” Sa’ad said, “May my mother and my fatherbe sacrificed for you oh messenger of Allah. It is Sa’ad. Muhammad, pbuh, said, “Oh Sa’adthere is no other abode for you but jannah.” He heard this and jumped back into the

battlefield.

-you think Jay Z and Beyonce are THE couple?!

I'm mashin the gas, she's grabbin the wheel, it's trippy how hard

She rides with me - the new Bobby and Whitney

-On the other hand, you’ve got the likes of Asma bin Abi Bakr and Zubayr bin al

 Awwam

“As for Asma bint Abi Bakr, she tied her reins to the reins of her husband, Zubayr bin al

Awwam. Whenever he struck she would equal him.” 

-you think this guy is the world’s strongest man?! 

In 2009, Rev Fast, a Lutheran Pastor from Cobourg, On and a strong-man competitor

successfully pulled a CC177 plane at CFB Trenton, setting a Guinness World Record for the

Heaviest Aircraft Pulled by an Individual. The plane pulled weighed 416,299 lb, and it was

Page 3: Heroes or Zeroes? Which one will you choose?

 

pulled a distance of 8.8 metres in 1 minute 16 seconds. 

-On the other hand, you’ve got the likes of Qaqa ibn Amr  

After the battle of Yamamah Khalid bin Waleed needed reinforcements so he sent a letter to

the Khalifah.When the letter reached Abu Bakr, he was sitting among his friends and

advisers. He read the letter aloud so that all present might hear what it said. Then he sent 

for a young stalwart by the name of Qaqa bin Amr.

The young man arrived in the presence of the Caliph, armed and equipped for travel. The

Caliph ordered him to proceed forthwith to Yamamah as reinforcement to the army of 

Khalid. The Companions stared in amazement at the Caliph. "Are you reinforcing onewhose army has left him, with one man?" they asked.

Abu Bakr looked for a moment at Qaqa. Then he said, "No army can be defeated if its ranks

possess the likes of this man

You think Easy-E goes hard?!

The saga continues right before your eyes

You know why? (why?)

Cause I'm ruthless for life …Does that make him a real man?! 

- On the other hand, you’ve got the likes of Dirar bin al Azwar  

“He wreaked absolute havoc. His bravery and manliness really stunned them. He then

removed his helmet and flung it away saying, “O Romans, I am Dirar bin al Azwar .

Yesterday I was soft with you, today I am your enemy. I am he who killed Hamran, son of 

Warden. Whoever denies Allah will find me to be like an incurable disease, I shall destroy

him at any time, in any place.

The soldiers recognized him and began fleeing hurriedly with him in hot pursuit. Then

when the Romans came against him, he turned back. Warden asked, ‘Who is this Bedouin?’They said, ‘That is the same Bedouin who fights bare-chested, sometimes with a spear,

sometimes without .’ 

MY BROTHERS, WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A REAL MAN? THE SAHABA OF

RASULALLAH WERE THE REALEST OF MEN!!! I conclude with this following

incident….  

-During battle at Yarmuk, the entire army of Muslims equals 30,000; whereas they are to

face an army of 60,000. Khalid bin Waleed proposes a plan, “I propose selecting thirty

horsemen, each of whom will have to face 2,000 Christian Arabs .” 

The rest of the Sahaba think he’s joking!!! Khalid radiAllahu Anhu is serious. Abu Sufyansuggests, “If you have resolved upon this then at least take SIXTY Muslims so that 

each will only have to face 1,000 Christian Arabs.” 

The other Sahaba such as Abu Ubaydah bin al Jarrah agree and the matter is decided.

60 SAHABA AGAINST AN ARMY OF 60,000!!!
