Trying to bring babies up in such weather conditions is very difficult. Babies can easily become ill, because of heavy disease. Traditionally, wet nurses come from high plateaus outside Mecca to nurse babies for about three years. They take care of them for about 3 years. Sometimes more than three years. The year Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is born, some wet nurses decide to set off on the two day journey to Mecca together. Difficult: Zor Decide: Karar Vermek Wet Nurses: Süt Anne Droughts: Kuraklık Prophet: Peygamber Trust: Güvenmek Outside: Dış Kısım None Of Them: Hiçbiri Choose: Seçmek Somebody: Birileri Humanity: İnsanlık 4 Amina hears that, the wet nurses are in Mecca and wants to choose one of them for little Muhammad (P.B.U.H), but how? Lack of money and not being able to trust somebody else with the last prophet for all humanity, make the decision even more difficult. By the way, The wet nurses find out that Muhammed (P.B.U.H) is an orphan and so none of them wants to take him (P.B.U.H). Soon, all the newborns from the rich families set on their way back out of Mecca with their new wet nurses. Just as the groups are leaving Mecca, Halimah and her husband Harith arrive. Halimah is a poor wet nurse who arrives late. Her frail donkey and her husband’s weak camel cannot walk fast enough to catch up with the group. They are not very happy to see the other group returning home and think that there are no babies left. While roaming the streets of Mecca, husband Harith and Halimah realise an old man acting strange walking up and down the street. They then, realise it is Abdul-Muttalib, the leader of the Quraysh tribe. Abdul-Muttalib approaches Halimah; “Who are you?” he asks. “I am a woman from the Bakr tribe” answers Halimah. “What is your name?” asks Abdul-Muttalib. Need: İhtiyaç Wing: Kanat Moral: Ahlakı Accept: Kabuletmek Orphant: Yetim Realize: Farketmek Suspicion: Şüphe However: Herneyse Last: Son Wet Nurse: Süt Anne Street: Cadde Teach: Öğretmek 5 6 “My name is Halimah” she says. “Your villagers are good people. Can you be my grandson’s wet nurse? Look after him and teach him morals for he will be the last prophet for all of humanity.” says Abdul-Muttalib. “All right, but first I need to ask my husband,” replies Halimah in suspicion. Halimah figures out that, Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is an orphan boy. However, her husband Harith already accepts to take lovely Muhammad (P.B.U.H) under his wing. 7 When Halimah goes to see little Muhammad (P.B.U.H), she sees that, he is the most adorable and cutest baby she has ever seen. Lovely Muhammad’s (P.B.U.H) presence is amazing and Halimah is fascinated with him. She feels a different kind of aura in his presence. Due to the feeling Muhammad (P.B.U.H) gives her, Halimah feels happy all the time. Muhammad (P.B.U.H) has a beautiful face and is always smiling; when he smiles, it is like the sun, comes up. His skin is softer than velvet and he smells like roses. Halimah and Harith leaves in a hurry, as it takes them at least three days to get back to their home town, because of their weak donkey and frail camel. Then a miracle happens. Her own breasts has over flown with milk, the donkey and camel are nothing like before. Weak: Zayıf Amazement: Şaşkınlık Nothing: Hiçbirşey Before: Önce Velvet: Kadife Carry: Taşımak Miracle: Mucize Hometown: Anavatan Skin: Deri, Cilt Anyone Else: Başka Biri Smell: Koklamak So Fast: Çok Hızlı 8 They both are walking very fast, to Halimah’s and Harith’s amazement. They can’t understand what has happened to the animals all of a sudden. Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is on the back of the donkey and the donkey is extra fast. Can it have be that it is carrying little Muhammad (P.B.U.H) and that’s why it is walking so fast. Furthermore, they catch up with the group that have left before them and even past the group and get home to their town Hudaybiyah before anyone else. 9 Almost immediately Halimah’s houses have an abundance of food and water, and is filled with happiness and blessings. All the animals in their farm become healthy and strong and their udders are over flown with milk too. All this happens shortly after little Muhammad (P.B.U.H) arrives. The whole town are generally thriving; it has plenty of rain and animals reproduced in high numbers. Another thing that puzzles Halimah is the cloud. This cloud follows lovely Muhammad (P.B.U.H) everywhere and protects him with its shade. Thanks to little Muhammad’s (P.B.U.H) arrival, all of the family are happier than before. At the age of two, lovely Muhammad (P.B.U.H) stops breastfeeding and so Halimah decides reluctantly that, it is time for him to return to his mother Amina. Even though, she doesn’t want to give him back, she knows that she does not have a choice. Risk Of Disease: Hastalık Riski High: Yüksek All Humanity: Tüm İnsanlık Because: Çünkü Longer: Daha Uzun Shade: Gölge Puzzle: Bulmaca Children: Çocuklar Best: En İyi Make Sure: Emin Olmak 10 While handing Muhammad (P.B.U.H) over to Amina, Halimah pleads Amina for her to let Muhammad (P.B.U.H) stay with her a little longer because there is still high risk of disease in Mecca for children. Only for this reason, Amina lets Halimah take lovely Muhammad (P.B.U.H) back for two more years. Amina doesn’t want him to go but has to make sure that the last prophet of all humanity is in his best health. 11 The days pass quickly until Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is four years old. By the way, other brothers sometimes go to shepherd the animals and lovely Muhammad (P.B.U.H) always wants to go with them. Halimah never gives him permission because she has to protect him and is scared to let him go. However on this occasions lovely Muhammad (P.B.U.H) really insisted, and so Halimah lets him go. Only on the grounds that, the other brothers have to take special care of him and not let go of him. The others are all become excited and give their promise. The next day arrives, all the brothers including Muhammad (P.B.U.H) set off to shepherd the sheep. While the brothers are watching the sheep, they are also talking and having fun together. All of a sudden, two strangers come and take Muhammad (P.B.U.H) up a nearby hill. Eventually: Sonuç Olarak Scared: Korkmuş Anxiously: Endişeli Upset: Üzgün Himself: Kendi Kendine Arrive: Ulaşmak Happen: Olmak Stranger: Yabancı Explain: Açıklamak 12 The brothers are shocked and can’t help him even if they try. They look everywhere but can’t find him. Eventually they go back and explain the situation to Halimah and Harith. Halimah and Harith also anxiously look for him but can’t find him anywhere. All they can do now is to wait and see what will happen. The whole family is upset and worried for Muhammad (P.B.U.H). After about an hour Muhammad (P.B.U.H) gets back home by himself and explains what happens to him. 13 “Some angels came and split open my chest. They removed a black clot from my heart and threw it away. Then they washed my heart with water that had heavenly light and placed it back into my body again.” The family is all shocked at what they are hearing. Halimah is scared that something will happen to Muhammad (P.B.U.H) and the family make the decision to take Muhammad (P.B.U.H) back to his mother and grandfather. Halimah understands that looking after Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is a huge responsibility. Amina is very excited about getting her little Muhammad (P.B.U.H) back with her. She misses him so much and can’t wait to have her lovely Muhammad (P.B.U.H) in her arms. Paradise: Cennet Nursing Mother: Sütanne Decision: Karar Strong: Güçlü Heart: Kalp Hope: Umut Childhood: Çocukluk Angels: Melekler Throughout: Boyunca Life: Yaşam 14 Given that Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is protected by Allah (God), he has grown up to be strong and healthy, although he faces with very difficult circumstances throughout his life.
