#73 Sixteen Months Facing Jerusalem, Then THIS Happened | Seerah | Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan #AMAU
Seerah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺShow Notes
For sixteen months, the Prophet ﷺ and his companions prayed toward Jerusalem. Then, in the middle of Rajab, everything changed. But what happened when the revelation came down during Asr prayer? And what about those companions praying miles away in Masjid Quba who had no idea the Qibla had just shifted?
In this episode of the Seerah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan takes us through one of the most pivotal moments in Islamic history: the day the Muslim Ummah turned toward the Kaaba.
Discover the dramatic scene of companions mid-prayer, the single messenger who changed everything, and the Jews of Medina who called the Muslims "dimwitted" for this divine command.
But that's not all. Why did the Prophet ﷺ long to face the Kaaba while still honouring Jerusalem?
What hidden fiqh rulings emerged from this single event? And how does the fasting of Ashura connect to this momentous occasion?
The stage is now set for the greatest battle in Islamic history: a battle where Allah Himself promised forgiveness to its participants. Are you ready to witness what happens next?

More from Seerah of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
Before the swords clashed at Badr, three men stepped forward to face three of Quraysh's champions in a duel that would open one of the most pivotal battles in Islamic history. Hamza, Ali, and Ubaydah ibn al-Harith stood against Shaybah, Utbah, and Al-Walid; and the encounter ended with both swift victory and painful sacrifice. Ubaydah ibn al-Harith fell that day, bleeding severely, yet spent his final moments reciting poetry in defence of the Prophet ﷺ.
The journey to Badr didn’t begin with a battlefield. It began with small moments that tested the companions one by one.
A caravan returning from Sham set the stage for the first major battle in Islam. In this episode, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains how a simple attempt to intercept Quraysh’s wealth became Yawm al-Furqan, the day Allah separated truth from falsehood.
The expeditions had begun. Quraysh’s caravans - loaded with the wealth stripped from the Muslims in Makkah - became the new target. The first expeditions passed without major confrontation, but each one edged closer to the inevitable clash. Then came Nakhlah.
