that the prophet (PBUH) checked his companions after the battle of Uhud and said: what happened to Sa’d bin Al-Rabie’? No one answered, so he said to his companions: Look for him. Is he dead or alive? One of the companions went to the battle field to look for him and he saw him dying. He said: O Sa’d, the prophet (PBUH) ordered me to look for you and to see if you are still alive or not. Imagine a dying man who is about to leave this world. Sa’d said: Tell the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) that I am among the dead and the I send him salam, and tell him: May Allah reward you with the best He rewards a messenger for his people, send salam to my people and tell them: You have no excuse if your prophet is hurt and any of you is still alive. The companion stayed with Sa’d till he died and went back to the Prophet (PBUH) to tell him what he had heard. The Prophet wept till his beard got wet. That was a wounded dying young man. What happiness filled his heart? It is because he achieved the purpose for which he was created. He believed in the Prophet, obeyed Allah, and gave himself for Allah. If each of us knows his mission and rises to its level, I swear to Allah that nothing can make us sad. People described Al-Siddiq saying: “He was never sorry for anything he missed in this life.” I can’t forget this statement. He knew his mission so nothing of this life makes him happy or sad.
