)All must know, that in the time of the Prophet, every time the prayer time, so that mengumandankan adzan is Bilal bin Rabah. Bilal was appointed for having a beautiful voice. The black African man has a distinctive golden voice. His position during the Prophet was irreplaceable by anyone, except during the war, or when out of town with the Prophet. Because he never separated from the Prophet, wherever the Prophet went. Until the Prophet met Allah ta'ala in the early 11 Hijrah. Since then Bilal declared himself not going to call the call to prayer again. When Khalifah Abu Bakr Ra. asked him to be mu'adzin again, with a heart wistfully nu bilal said: "Let me be muezzin of the Prophet only. The Prophet is gone, then I am not a muezzin anymore. "
Abu Bakr continued to press him, and Bilal asked: "In the past, when you freed me from the torture of Umayyad bin Khalaf. Are you liberating you because of what you are because of God? "Abu Bakr Ra. just silent. "If you set me free for you, then I am willing to be your muezzin. But if you used to free me for God, then leave me with my decision. "And Abu Bakr Ra. can no longer urge Bilal Ra. to return the call to prayer.
The sadness of leaving the Prophet's death, continues to settle in the heart of Bilal Ra. And the sadness that drove him away from Medina, he joined the Fath Islamy troops towards Sham, and then lived in Homs, Syria. Long time Bilal Ra did not visit Madinah, until one night, the Prophet was present in Bilal's dream, and rebuked him: "Ya Bilal, wa maa hadzal jafa '? Hi Bilal, why do not you visit me? Why do you get this way? "Bilal awoke, he immediately prepared a trip to Medina, for pilgrimage to the Prophet. For many years he has left the Prophet.
Arriving at Medina, Bilal sobbed the sedan off his longing for the Prophet, to the lover. At that time, two young men who had grown up, approached him. Both are cucunda Prophet Saw., Hasan and Hussein. With his eyes pierced by tears, Bilal, who was getting older, embraced the two grandchildren of the Prophet. One of them said to Bilal Ra: "Uncle, will you once call the call to prayer for us? We want to remember our grandfather. "At that time, Umar bin Khattab, who had become the Caliph, was also looking at the touching scene, and he also begged Bilal to call the call to prayer, even once.
Bilal fulfilled the request. When the time of prayer arrives, he ascends to the place where he used to perform the call to prayer at the time of the Prophet Saw still alive. He began to recite the call to prayer. When lafadz "Allahu Akbar" was uttered by him, suddenly the whole Medina was silent, all activities stopped, all surprised, the voice that had been lost for years, the voice reminiscent of the great figure, the voice so longed for, it had returned. When Bilal shouted "Asyhadu an laa ilaha illallah", the entire city of Madinah ran to the voice while shouting, even the girls in their seclusion went out.
And when bilal echoed "Asyhadu anna Muhammadan Rasulullah", Medina broke out by a very sad tears and laments. Everyone was crying, remembering good times with the Prophet, Umar bin Khattab who was the loudest of tears. Even Bilal himself was not able to continue his adzannya, his tongue caught by the tears that berberai. That day, madina recalled the time when there was still the Prophet Saw. No great person is so loved as the Prophet Saw. And the call to prayer, the unstoppable call to prayer, is the first call to prayer as the last adhan of Bilal Ra, since the Prophet Saw died. He was never willing to again call the call to prayer, because the sadness that very soon tore his heart to remember a person who therefore his degree so elevated high. Hopefully we can feel the pleasure of Rindu and Love as Allah bestowed to the Friend of Bilal bin Rabah Ra. Aamiin
