Anas ibn Malik

written by

Abdur- Rahman Muslim (Amreeki)

9 years old

Cairo, Egypt

Anas ibn Malik's mother was a very good woman. She


became muslim but her husband did not. He stayed a
disbeliever. They lived together for some time and Um
Anas always told Abu Anas that he should be a muslim and
worship Allah not his idols. He would not listento her and
he would even try to stop her from worshiping Allah. Um
Anas would not listen to him. This made Abu Anas very
upset, so one day he left Madinah to go to As- Sham. But
before he got there a man on the road killed him, so Abu
Anas died a disbeliever. Anas was now an orphan.

Um Anas loved her son Anas ibn Malik very much. She
wanted him to be a very good muslim. She was always
teaching him Quran and Ahadeeth of the Messenger of
Allah .

When Anas was still a little boy, a man name Abu Talha
came and asked Um Anas to marry him. She said No . I
will not marry you because you are a disbeliever" . Abu
Talha left her and thought about what she said. He
returned after a while when he became a Muslim and
asked her again to marry him. This time she said "yes."

Um Anas knew that she wanted her son Anas to be the best
in Islaam . She knew he needed a very good person to be
like and a very good teacher. So she took him to the best
role model and the best teacher, the Messenger of
Allah .

When Anas was eight years old she held Anas by his hand
and took him to the Messenger of Allah
and said to him,

Oh Messenger of Allah ! There is no man or


woman among the Ansar who has not presented you with a
gift, but I am not able to present you with anything except
this som of mine, so take him and let him serve you in a
way that you see fit.

Anas live with the messenger and stayed close


to him, so that one day he could be just like him. Anas did
everything the messenger did, He ate like the Messenger
. He drank like him. He worshiped Allah
like him. Anas stayed with the messenger for ten years
always working hard to be just like him.

While Anas bin Malik was living with the Messenger


Allah , he saw that the Messenger
was the best role model. The Messenger
Allah was always loving and very kind
hearted to Anas. He treated him like he was his own son.
He never raised his voice to Anas or beat him. He always
treated him well.

Anas said I never felt brocade or silk softer than the hand
of the Messenger Allah nor did I smell a
fragrance sweeter than the smell of the Messenger
Allah . I served the Messenger Allah
for 10 years and he never once said Uff to

me ,nor did he ever say Why did you do this or that? or
Why didnt you do this or that?

As a little boy Anas took part in the battle of Badr fighting


against the disbelievers , serving the Messenger Allah
. He was a very good archer and hardly ever
missed the target.

When Anas was a little boy Um Anas asked the Messenger


Allah to make dua for Anas.

He said Oh Allah increase him in Weath and Children.

Allah Answered His dua because he had a lot of wealth and


about one hundred children and grand children. He also
had a fruit orchard that gave fruit twice a year.

Anas loved Allah and His Messenger so much


that he spent his life always trying to be just like the
Messenger Allah and stay away from the
things that would make Allah and the Messenger
Allah upset.

He loved the Messenger Allah so much that


when the Messenger Allah died he would
sometimes sit and think about him and cry a lot , and
couldnt wait for the day when he would see him again.

Anas grew up and stayed a good man who had a good


reputation. No one ever had anything bad to say about
him.
He spent his life as a servant to Allah and his
Messenger . He was the last of the
companions to died at the age 90 years old.
