1. Prophet Mohammad (SAW) said in the hadith narrated in Bukhari & Muslim that says in the closest meaning "everybody I called to Islam felt hesitant at first except ....... he did not feel hesitant at all".
3. A Muslim woman who is believed to be the FIRST to establish organized nursing in history. In the battle of Uhud, when the Muslims were confused and almost defeated and some ran away leaving the prophet alone with few Muslims around him to protect him, this woman was among those few who stayed with the prophet protecting him by using her back as a shield for him against arrows. She joined the Muslim army in the war of Yamama against Musaylama Al-Kathab (the liar) who claimed to be a prophet after the death of prophet Mohammad (SAAW) during the khilafa of abu Bakr. She served then as a chief nurse to help the injured and prepare food for the army. Ironically she was the one who caught Musaylama the lier when he tried to escape after his defeat and fought him personally with her sword before he was killed by Wahshi (the abesynian slave who killed Hamza the prophet Uncle in Uhud and then became a Muslim). 4. In the famous sahih Hadith the prophet SAAW said in the closest meaning "between a Friday to the next Friday, and between a Ramadan to the next Ramadan is a clearance (deletion) of the sins as long as the BIG sins are avoided". 5. Three of the most brave Sahaba (companions of the prophet). Young they are, they were selected by the Prophet PBUH to lead the Muslim army to fight the Roman Empire for the first time. With an army of no more than 3,000 Muslims they met 200,000 of the Roman army (a ratio of 1:70) in the battle of Mu'ta currently in the southern part of Jordan. Their story in that battle is indeed an example of true bravery for the sake of Allah and a miraculous sign of the prophet hood of Prophet Mohammad PBUH. All of the three leaders were killed in that battle.
