on Wednesday, May 1, 2013

Aqeel is an Arabic name which means a wise and intelligent person. It is a boyish name and is  recommended for Muslim baby boys. The name Aqeel is very famous and can distinguish a Muslim boy easily among many boys. This name is taken as pious name because it belongs to a relative of prophet  Muhammad (PBUH) and is highly liked by all Muslims. Muslim ibn Aqeel was the first cousin of prophet Muhammad (PBUH). His father was Abu Talib, who was the uncle of the holy prophet, and he helped him a lot during his childhood. He took very good care of the Holy Prophet and never let Him feel as an orphan. For this reason,  prophet Muhammad loved his uncle and grandfather so much that HE always wanted His uncle to embrace Islam, but when Uncle Hazrat Abu Talib denied accepting Islam because of his society prophet of Allah got very sad because He always wanted His uncle to be in the list of good people in the sight of Allah.

Muslim ibn Aqeel was the son of Hazart Abu Talib and cousin of nephew Hazarat Ali who is the second cousin of prophet Muhammad later on Hazrat Ali was regarded as the husband of his beloved daughter  Famita El-Zahraa. Muslim ibn Aqeel has played vital rule in the battle held between Imam Hussain (grandson of Prophet Muhammad) and the people of Kufa. Muslim ibn Aqeel acts as a messenger of Imam Hussain and delivers his letters to Kufa. At the time before the battle, Muslim ibn Aqeel went to Kufa and acted as an envoy to deliver the message of Hazrat Imam Hussain to Kufian people with his two sons Muhammad ibn Muslim and Ibraheem ibn Muslim where he got killed on the spot along with his sons, and hence regarded as martyrs in Islamic history.
