Do not let the fact that all these excelling traits were found in one man astonish you, for you are looking at a man who resembled theProphet in his looks and conduct. The Prophet gave him the epithet "Fatherof the Poor" and the agnomen "The Two Winged". You are about to meet thetwittering heavenly sparrow, Ja'far Ibn Abii Taalib, one of the great Muslimswho contributed much to shaping the conscience of life.

He embraced Islam and was raised to a high station among the early believers. On the same day, his wife, Asmaa' Bint `Umais, submitted herself to Islam. They had their share of abuse and oppression, which they withstood with courage and joy. When the Prophet (PBUH) advised his Companions to emigrate to Abyssinia, Ja'far and his wife were among those who acted upon his advice. There, they settled for a number of years, during which they had three children: Muhammad, `Abd Allah and `Awf.

In Abyssinia, Ja'far Ibn Abi Taalib was the eloquent Companion who won through in the way of Allah and His prophet, for among Allah's graces bestowed on him were his noble heart, alert mind, sagacious spirit, and fluent speech. The Battle of Mu'tah, in which he was martyred, was his most magnificent, glorious and immortal feat. Yet the Day of Al-Mujaawarah, which he executed before An- Najaashii in Abyssinia, was not less in magnificence glory and grace. In fact, it was a singular battle of words and an impressive scene.

Now, the Muslim emigration to Abyssinia did not set the fears of the Quraish to rest nor lessen their grudges and spite against the Muslims. On the contrary, the Quraish were afraid lest the Muslims should gain momentum there andincrease in number and power. If that did not happen, the Quraish's haughtinessand arrogance could not accept the fact that those fugitives had fled theirtyranny and ruthlessness and had settled in another country which the Prophet(PBUH) saw as a promising land for Islam. Therefore, the Quraish leadersdecided to send delegates to An-Najaashii with expensive gifts and the hopethat he would expel those fugitives from his country. The two chosen delegateswere `Abd Allah lbn Abi Rabii'ah and `Amr Ibn Al-Aas before they had embracedIslam.

An-Najaashii, or Negus, the emperor of Abyssinia, was an enlightened believer. Deep inside he embraced a rational and pure Christianity, void of deviation, fanaticism, and narrow-mindedness. He was renowned and highly admired for his justice. Hence, the Prophet (PBUH) chose his country for his Companions' immigration. Now, the Quraish were afraid lest they should not be able to convince him of their viewpoint. Therefore, their two delegates carriedmany expensive gifts for the bishops and archbishops of the church and wereadvised not to meet An-Najaashii until they had given those presents tothe bishops and convinced them of their viewpoint so that they would supportthem before An- Najaashii.

As soon as the two delegates arrived in Abyssinia, they met the spiritual leaders and lavished the gifts on them. Then they sent An-Najaashii his presents. Afterwards, they began to incite the priests and bishops against the Muslim immigrants and asked them to support them in their plea to An-Najaashij to expel them. A day was set for the Muslims to meet An-Najaashii and confront, before his eyes, their spiteful and mischievous enemies.

On the appointed day, An-Najaashii sat on the throne in awesome dignity, surrounded by the bishops and his retinue. Right in front of him in the vast hall sat the Muslim immigrants, enveloped by Allah's calmness, tranquility, and mercy which He had sent down upon them. The two Quraish delegates stood to reiterate their accusation which they had presented before An-Najaashii in a private meeting right before this huge audience.
