Who was Hazarat Bilaal?

Post by agakhani »

Did you know that:

Hazarat Bilaal RA. was an African. His name was Bilal ibn Rabah, or Bilal the Abyssinian.
He had very strong and loud voice so, Rasoolullah(PBUH) chosen him as The first Muezzin!!.

Yes, I knew. :)

Also, it has another very great symbolic significance. At the time of the Prophet there was slavery. The status of Muezzin apparently was high, and just the fact that the Prophet chose Bilal as first Muezzin has great value and significance.
