The Poisoned Grandson: The Tragic & Untold Story of Hasan ibn Ali (RA) | Omar Suleiman

Discover the breathtaking, beautiful, and ultimately heartbreaking story of Hasan ibn Ali (RA)—the beloved grandson of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and the great unifier of the Muslim Ummah. In this profoundly emotional lecture, Dr. Omar Suleiman takes us through the life of Al-Hasan (RA). From his childhood as the boy who would climb on the Prophet’s ﷺ back during Sujud, to the tragic and devastating days of his adulthood. He was the master of youth in Paradise, a man whose patience was "heavier than mountains," and the leader who sacrificed his own right to rule to save the blood of the Muslims. Experience the devastating final moments of his life after being poisoned, his refusal to name his killer to his brother Husayn (RA) to prevent further bloodshed, and the beautiful, smiling vision he saw right before his soul returned to Allah.
