Bilal Ibn Rabah (R.A.) was the main Muezzin of Islam (Muslim authority of a the dependable mosque to supplication from a minaret of a mosque five times each day). He was picked as the principal Muezzin by the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.) himself. He is, for the most part, known as "BILAL HABASHI". Bilal (R.A.) was one of the most trusted and faithful buddy of Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.).
Bilal's (R.A.) father was an Arab and his mom was an Abyssinian (Modern day Ethiopian). His dad's name was Ribah and his mom's name was Hamama. As per diverse Islamic history specialists, Bilal (R.A.) had a dull earthy colored appearance with tall thin body and thick-hair. He had a Muslim sibling named Khalid and a sister called Aqra. There is contrast of assessment on his date of birth. As per a few researchers, Bilal (R.A.) was conceived 53 years before Hijra (570 AD) yet as indicated by some others, he was brought into the world around 43 years before Hijra (580 AD). He was raised in Makkah.
Bilal (R.A.) had a place with Banu Jumah Tribe (one of Quraish Tribe). Prior to disclosure of Islam, individuals of Jumah clan were viewed as specialists in palmistry. Bilal's (R.A.) guardians were slaves and slaves had the most reduced status in the public eye as they needed to comply with all orders given to them by their lords. Bilal was brought into the world as a slave and his lord was Umayyah ibn Khalaf who was head of Banu Jumah.
When Bilal's (R.A.) ace, Umayyah ibn Khalaf, looked into his change to Islam, he started to torment Bilal (R.A.) with the goal that he revoke hammer and get once again to his old religion I-e adoring icons. Be that as it may, Bilal (R.A.) wouldn't disavow Islam. His lord Umayyah and different heathens used to take him out in the late morning heat when the desert went to a deadly damnation. Then, at that point, they would toss him exposed on its searing rocks and bring a consuming hot stone, which took a few men to lift from its place, and toss it onto Bilal's (R.A.) body and chest. This savage torment was rehashed each day until the hearts of a portion of his killers showed compassion for him. At long last, they consented to liberate him on condition that he would praise their divine beings/symbols, even with just single word that would permit them to keep their pride so the Quraish would not say they had been crushed and embarrassed by the opposition of their persisting slave. Be that as it may, even this single word, which he could launch from outside his heart and with it purchase his life and soul without losing his confidence or leaving his conviction, Bilal (R.A.) would not say and started to rehash his enduring serenade all things being equal: "Ahad" (Allah is outright/one). His torturers yelled at him, begging him, "Notice the name of our objects of worship 'Al-Laat' and 'Al-Uzzaa'." But Bilal (R.A.) replied, "Ahad ... Ahad." They said to him, "Say as we say." But he addressed them with noteworthy joke and acidic incongruity, "Without a doubt my tongue isn't great at that."
So Bilal (R.A.) stayed in the dissolving heat and under the heaviness of the substantial stone and by dusk, they raised him up and put a rope around his neck. Then, at that point, they requested their young men to take him around the mountains and roads of Makkah. Yet, Bilal's (R.A.) tongue referenced nothing other than his sacred serenade, "Ahad … Ahad… " Bilal's (R.A.) torment proceeded for a very long time however he stayed patient, bold, firm, and anticipating the award in the Hereafter from Allah.
