The Prophet Muhammad H publicly named ten men who he himself guaranteed would be in Paradise in the hereafter. One of these fortunate men was Abu ‘Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah I. He was one of amongst who accept Islam in its early days in Makkah. He took part in the migrations to Ethiopia and Al-Madinah, for the sake of preserving his faith. He fought in all the major battles of Islam and spent most of his life as a soldier fighting for the cause of Islam. He even killed his own father in battle when his father vowed to slay him for accepting Islam. Praising his character, the Prophet H said: “Every Ummah has a trustworthy man; Abu ‘Ubaidah Iis the trustworthy man of this Ummah.”
