LETTER TO KHALID BIN WALEED (Raziallah
AnhoA.)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.
From Muhammad, Prophet of Allah --
To Khalid bin Waleed.
Peace be on you! I praise Allah except whom there is none to be
worshipped.
Thereafter, received your letter, through your messenger, in which
you have informed about the acceptance of Islam by Bani Al-Haris. I came to
know that they have accepted the invitation which you took to them and that
they testify that there is none to be worshipped except Allah, the One, who is
without an associate and that Muhammad (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) is His
servant and Prophet.
Allah has honoured them with His guidance. Give them the good news
about Paradise and frighten them from Hell.
After performing this work, come here and tell the people to send
a deputation to me.
Peace be on you and Kindness of Allah and His blessings
Note: The Holy Prophet (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) had sent Khalid
bin Waleed (Raziallah Anho) to the Bani Haris tribe who lived in Yemen with an
invitation to embrace Islam. The entire tribe accepted Islam. When Waleed
conveyed the good news the Holy prophet (Sal Allaho Alehe Wasallam) wrote to
him the above letter.
