\"\"<\/a>Haashim<\/strong><\/p>\n

Imaam Maalik (rahimahullah) and Imaam Shaafi\u2018ee (rahimahullah) say that Haashim\u2019s actual name was \u2018Amr.<\/p>\n

There was once a severe drought in Makkah during which Haashim fed the people bread crushed into gravy. This is why he was given the title \u201cHaashim\u201d (The one who crushes). As a poet says:<\/p>\n

\u0639\u0645\u0631\u0648 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0644\u0627 \u0647\u0634\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u062b\u0631\u064a\u062f \u0644\u0642\u0648\u0645\u0647 \u0648\u0631\u062c\u0627\u0644 \u0645\u0643\u0629 \u0645\u0633\u0646\u062a\u0648\u0646 \u0639\u062c\u0627\u0641<\/p>\n

\u201cThe exalted \u2018Amr prepared Thareed (a dish of meat and gravy into which bread is crushed) for his people (and fed it to them) when the people of Makkah were left weak and thin by the drought.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He fed them in this manner not once but on a number of occasions. He was exceedingly generous and his food table was very wide and spacious. His hospitality extended to every newcomer and traveller. He would assist poor travellers and provide them with camels to complete their journeys.<\/p>\n

He was exceptionally handsome and the noor of prophethood would glimmer on his forehead. The \u2018Ulamaa of the Banu Israa\u2019eel would fall into sajdah as a gesture of respect and kiss his hands whenever they caught sight of him. A number of Arab tribes and \u2018Ulamaa of the Banu Israa\u2019eel would offer Haashim their daughters\u2019 hands in marriage. In fact, on one occasion, Heraclius, the Byzantine emperor, wrote to Haashim thus: \u201cI have learnt of your unrivalled generosity. I wish to grant you my daughter\u2019s hand in marriage. She is a princess unparalleled in beauty. In order to perform the nikah with the princess, kindly come to us.\u201d However, Haashim refused to accept the proposal. In reality, the emperor\u2019s key objective was to transmit the noor of prophethood that was glimmering on Haashim\u2019s forehead into the royal family.<\/p>\n

It is said that Haashim passed away at the age of twenty-five.<\/p>\n
