The Only Companion Named in the Quran (33:37)By Aira AuroraLength1h 24m
About this audiobook
The Quran names prophets, kings, queens, angels, and communities. Among the hundreds of companions who believed, migrated, fought, and buried the Prophet, the Book names one: Zayd. "So when Zayd accomplished from her what he would, We joined her to you in marriage, so that there would be no blame on the believers concerning the wives of their adopted sons when they have accomplished from them what they would. And the command of Allah is accomplished" (33:37).
