The Black Companions of the Prophet Nobody Talks About
Most Muslims know the name of Bilāl ibn Rabāḥ — but he was not the only Black Companion of the Prophet ﷺ.
In this video, we uncover the forgotten stories of the Black men and women who helped shape early Islam: leaders, warriors, scholars, caretakers, and pioneers whose contributions are rarely mentioned today.
From Umm Ayman, the woman the Prophet ﷺ called “my mother after my mother,” to Ali ibn abi Taalib, to the African Companions who stood with the Prophet in battles, da‘wah, and migration — this is a history every Muslim should know.
These stories show that:
Islam never marginalized Black people
The first Muslim community was racially diverse
Blackness held honor, dignity, and leadership in the earliest days of Islam
Anti-Blackness comes from culture and colonialism, not revelation
If you care about Islamic history, Black Muslim identity, or recovering erased narratives, this video is essential.
