@merixhqx: Salman Al-Farsi was a Persian who traveled far and wide in search of the truth, eventually arriving in Madinah. Salman was originally a Zoroastrian but left his home in search of the “true religion.” He studied under Christian priests, and one of them told him about the coming of a prophet in Arabia. Salman later became a slave in Madinah, where he heard about Muhammad (peace be upon him). To test the Prophet, Salman offered him food and observed his behavior, noticing the signs foretold by the priest. Convinced, he accepted Islam. The Prophet praised Salman’s long search for the truth, calling him: “Salman of the People of the House (Ahl al-Bayt).” Lesson: This story reflects the virtue of perseverance in seeking truth and the universal nature of Islam. Sources Musnad Ahmad (Hadith 23408): Salman narrates his life story, describing his search for truth, enslavement, and acceptance of Islam in Madinah. Sunan al-Tirmidhi (Hadith 3295): Highlights Salman’s journey, guided by Christian monks, and his recognition of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Sirat Ibn Hisham: Details Salman’s journey, his arrival in Madinah, and his verification of the Prophet’s signs. Ibn Sa’d’s Tabaqat al-Kubra: Focuses on Salman’s hardships, wisdom, and role as a companion. Al-Bidaya wa’l-Nihaya: Ibn Kathir elaborates on Salman’s perseverance and ultimate success in finding Islam.
