Select your answer for: Who was the master of Hazrat Bilal (R.A) at the time he embraced Islam:_________?
Show answer

Answer: C. Ummayia bin Khalaf

Explanation

Ummayia bin Khalaf was the cruel master of Hazrat Bilal at the time he embraced Islam. He subjected Hazrat Bilal to severe physical torture in an attempt to force him to renounce his faith. Hazrat Bilal endured this intense persecution with remarkable steadfastness and unwavering belief. Hazrat Bilal was an enslaved man in Makkah who heard the message of Islam and accepted it immediately. His freedom was eventually purchased by Hazrat Abu Bakr, who then set him free in the path of God. He later became the very first official muezzin of Islam, chosen for his beautiful voice.

This history highlights the early struggle of marginalized individuals against oppressive social hierarchies. Hazrat Bilal's story remains a powerful symbol of human dignity, equality, and spiritual resilience. His appointment as muezzin shattered racial and social barriers in seventh-century Arabia. Option A naming Abu Jahal and Option D naming Oqabah were prominent enemies but not his owner. Option B naming Ummayia Bin Harb is a slight name variation that points to the same brutal master. Historical consensus clearly identifies Ummayia bin Khalaf as the master who persecuted him.
