*🌧️ THE MAN WHO BURIED HIS OWN DAUGHTER ALIVE...*🤍🌙🕊️ *Before accepting Islam, ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA) was a fierce enemy of the Prophet ﷺ. So blind was his hatred that he once set out with the intention to kill Rasulullah ﷺ.* *But something happened.* *On the way, he learned that his own sister and brother-in-law had accepted Islam. Enraged, he rushed to their home and beat them both violently. Blood was dripping from their faces… yet they continued reciting the verses of the Qur’an.* *When ‘Umar caught a glimpse of those verses, something shook in his heart. He paused… and asked to hear more.* *He wept.* *Then he rushed to the Prophet ﷺ and declared his Islam — and from that day, he became one of the greatest companions ever.* *But what many forget…* *Is that ‘Umar (RA) once buried his own daughter alive, as was the cruel tradition in pre-Islamic Arabia.* *Years later, as a Muslim, he sat weeping—remembering how she clung to his clothes and wiped dust off his beard as he lowered her into the earth…* *Islam changed that man.* *And if Allah could forgive that, and raise him to be the second greatest man in Islam after Abu Bakr…* *Then there is hope for you. No matter your past.* 📖 *“Say: O My slaves who have transgressed against themselves (by sinning), despair not of the mercy of Allah…”* *— [Surah Az-Zumar 39:53]*
