Abu Bakra (ra): The Freed Slave of Allah | The Firsts | Sahaba Stories | Dr. Omar Suleiman

About this lecture

So often confused for Abu Bakr as-Siddiq (ra), this prolific narrator of hadith escaped Ta’if in such a unique way that he was named after this incident. After this lecture, you will never read his name as a typo again. This episode of The Firsts is part of the “Muslim of Ta’if” series. The Firsts is a weekly video series that chronicles the lives of the Sahaba (the companions of the Prophet ﷺ) during and after the time of the Prophet ﷺ. #thefirsts #sahaba #islamichistory Click SUBSCRIBE and hit the 🔔 icon to receive the latest updates from Yaqeen!
