In this episode of Sahaba Role Models, we uncover the inspiring story of Uqbah ibn Aamir al-Juhani (RA), a man who traded his entire livelihood—his five precious sheep—to sit at the feet of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW). 

Living as a shepherd in the deserts outside Madinah, Uqbah first hesitated to leave his flock behind. But when he realized the immense value of learning directly from the Prophet, he sacrificed everything and moved to the Masjid. His decision transformed him from an unknown shepherd into a distinguished scholar, warrior, and governor. Join us as we explore how his sacrifice led to an everlasting legacy.
