Fact: This week we past the 7th of Shawwal, it marks the Battle of Uhud against the Quraysh, which occurred in third Hijri year. Hamzah ibn Abd al-Muttalib (RA), the uncle of Prophet Muhammad (SWS), was martyred during this battle. 

Here is the story of how Hamzah accepted Islam:

For three years, Prophet Muhammad had spoken to only a few people about the revelation he had so far received, and for a further three years he struggled against great odds to make the message known to the wider community in Makkah.

For doing this he was vilified and ridiculed by the people of Makkah. Some Makkans were especially strong in leading this campaign against the Prophet and against Islam. One of these men was Abu Jahl, cousin of the Father of the Prophet SWS.

One day, Prophet Muhammad SWS was walking at the foot of Mount As-Safa in Makkah when Abu Jahl met him. Abu Jahl began to hurl insults at him and to ridicule the message of the Oneness of Allah that he was preaching.

Some reports even say that he took a stone and hit Muhammad SWS with it, causing his head to bleed. The Prophet did not respond to the taunts, and Abu Jahl boasted to his tribes people of what he had done.

It was just at this time that Hamzah was coming back from hunting. He was a brave man, very popular with the people of Makkah, and he used to love hunting. He came across the freed slave woman of `Abdullah ibn Judan, who told him what had happened to his nephew.

In a rage, Hamzah rushed off to the Ka’bah to seek revenge on the one who had harmed a member of his family. Without saying a word he used his hunting bow to hit Abu Jahl, cutting his head. He then asked Abu Jahl how he dared to hurt his nephew, especially since he preached the very message that Hamzah believed in.

Hamzah had never said these words before and they were a shock to everyone and set the two tribes in frenzy, Abu Jahl had to admit that he had offended Muhammad SWS and deserved what he got.

From that moment on, declaring before the people of Makkah that he believed in the message of his nephew, Muhammad SWS, Hamzah was one of the Prophet’s staunchest supporters and did everything he could to protect him.

Hamzah was to go on to become known as “Asadullah“, the Lion of Allah, so strong was his defense of Islam and so great was he to become as one of its warriors. In the end he died a very cruel and brutal death at the hands of wicked and vengeful people, giving his last breath in the cause of Allah.
