Amr ibn Al-Aas (ra), Session 34 The Fox of The Arabs  Al Heera to Shaam The similarity between Tabuk and The Perilous March. Khalid (ra) intends to join his brothers in Sham, but must avoid The Roman Garrison. Raafi ibn Umayrah aTh-Thaay (ra) suggests to walk through the Syrian desert as this is the only route. It's June and it's the peak of the heat. The first 3 unrelenting heat soaked days passed uneventfully and the mandatory prayers continued. The prayer alone in the desert is virtuous by the magnitude of 50. Their water was meant to last for 5 days but finished by the end of day 3. Day 4, the column resumed the march, conversations had now ceased, they camped and slept not. Agony in their throats, they could only repeat in their minds, Surah 3 v173, Sufficient for us is Allah SWT. Day 5 The column formation was no longer neat and Rafi (ra) could no longer see.
