One day, Maulana Abu Talib <sup>SA<\/sup>, along with his son Ja\u2019far al-Tayyar passed by them as they were praying <em>namaz<\/em> in Makkah. He instructed his son to join Rasulullah <sup>SA<\/sup>. Thus, he was the third to accept Islam. Maulana Ja\u2019far al Tayyar <sup>SA<\/sup> was the elder brother of Maulana Ali <sup>SA<\/sup>. He was preceded by two more brothers elder to him, Aqeel and Talib. Each brother was older than his sibling by ten years.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>When Muslimeen complained to Rasulullah <sup>SA<\/sup> over the ever increasing atrocities committed on them by those who denied Islam in Makkah, he gave them permission to travel to the land of Abyssinia and seek refuge under the shelter of its Christian king, Najashi. Eighty-three people along with their families travelled, \u00a0headed by Maulana Ja\u00b4far al Tayyar <sup>SA<\/sup> who carried with him a letter written by his father Maulana Abu Talib <sup>SA<\/sup> addressed to the king and informing him of the situation in Makkah Mukarramah and seeking protection for the group. Maulana Abu Talib\u2019s <sup>SA<\/sup> epistle ensured that the Najashi welcomed them wholeheartedly and offered them protection with respect and hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>When the <em>mushrikeen<\/em> came to know of the privileges afforded to Muslimeen in Abyssinia, they sent two of their most cunning men to instigate the king against them. They sent with them various gifts in order to bribe the king\u2019s courtiers. In this manner the two managed to reach his court and alleged that the people who had sought his haven were actually a group of foolish renegades who not only had abandoned their own faith but also refused to convert to the king\u2019s faith. They requested the king to send them back. The kings aides who were bribed by the two also accorded. Upon hearing their allegations the king became angry and called on the Muslimeen to offer an explanation. Maulana Ja\u00b4far al Tayyar <sup>SA<\/sup> spoke on behalf of all Muslimeen and informed him about the depraved way of life that people of Makkah were living before Rasulullah <sup>SA<\/sup> brought forth the deen of Islam and salvaged them. He then recited the opening verses from Surat Maryam, upon hearing which Najashi and the bishops present in his court wept copiously to the extent that their beards and their scrolls became wet with tears. Finally Najashi dismissed the two and expelled them. Later he embraced Islam. During Asharah Mubaraka 1435 H, Syedna Aali Qadr Mufaddal Saifuddin TUS explained that the Najaashi and those in his presence wept upon hearing these verses, since they knew that these verses narrated the events that befell Maulana Imam Husain <sup>AS<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>Years later, when Maulana Ja\u2019far al Tayyar<sup>SA<\/sup> returned from Abyssinia to Madina Munawwarah, it coincided with the victory of Khaibar.
