Amr ibn Al-Aas (ra), Session 50 The Fox of The Arabs  The Opening of Jerusalem, Al Quds An open battle with Ar-Thaboon was inevitable. Both Muslims & Romans fought a battle as fierce as Yarmook… (Tabree). Ar-Thaboon flees to Jerusalem and knows only the one with the attributes of Umar (ra) can liberate the city, to fulfil the prophecy of the Scriptures… 'Rejoice O Jerusalem! Al Farooq (ra) will come to you and cleanse you' (Tabri,Tareekh).  Umar (ra) is described as a strong safe castle, Uthmaan (ra) as a pious soul, Alee (ra) like rust on a sword (Abu Dawud).
