Re: Who Is “Amr Bin Luhay”?

He started paganism in Makkah.
Prophet (saw) tells us that the very first one to institute a lot of these practices among these Arabs was Amr ibn Luhay. Amr ibn Luhay was the first one to alter the deen of Ismail (as). He’s the one that came & erected the idols to be worshipped by the pre-Islamic Arabs. He was the first one to designate a she-camel for the milk of the idols. He was the first one to mark a she-camel just for the gods. Etc.

he was from khuza tribe…he changed the deen of ibrahim and started paganism…he brought “Hubl” from amaleeq and put it infront of kabba and people started worshipping that hubl..he got inspired by amaleeq and also he changed the talbiyah
rest you can find more about him the seerah of prophet sallal laho alehe wasallam fourth lecture by yasir qadhi
he started shirk in arabs basically. yasir qadhi explained very nicely mashaAllah how people inspired by shaitan by his act of inspiration from amaleeq.

‘Intermediary’, interesting :k: Hope you’ll share more.

Any example of ‘amended talibiya’?

Re: Who Is “Amr Bin Luhay”?

i couldn’t write that but in his lecture he tells..but i rememeber it changes from" la shareeka"

labaik allahuma labaik labaika** la shareeka** labaik

he changed the bold part..

now got it…naozbillah

He also changed the talbiyyah from ‘labbaik Allah humma Labaik’ to ‘labbaik la shareeka lak illa shareekan howa lak tamliku ho wa malak’
This was an added phrase meaning, “You have no partners oh Allah except partners whom you control and you control what they control as well.’ (So you do have partners now oh Allah)
