Hadhrat Ammaar ( Radhiyallaho anho ) and His Parents :

     Hadhrat Ammaar ( Radhiyallaho anho ) and his
parents were also subjected to the severest afflicitons.
They were tormented on the scorching sands of Mecca.
The Prophet (Sallallaho alaihe wsallam) while passing
by them would enjoing patience giving them glad tidings
about paradise. Ammaar's father Yasir ( Radhiyallaho anho )
died after prolonged sufferings at the hands of perescutors,and his
mother Sumayya ( Radhiyallaho anho ) was killed by Abu Jahl,
who put his  spear through the most privete paet of her boody,
causing her death. She had refused to renounce Islam in the face
of terrible torture in her old age.The blessed lady was the first
to meet martyrdom in the cause of  Islam.The first mosque in Islam
was built by Ammaar ( Radhiyallaho anho ).

Madinah, Ammaar ( Radhiyallaho anho )offered tobuild a
structure for him where he could sit,take rest in the afternoon,
and say his Salaat under its roof.He first collected the stones
and then built the masjid in Quba. He fought against the enemies
of Islam with great zeal and courage.Once he was fighting in a
battle when he said rejoicingly:

     "I am to meet my friends very soon,I am to meet Muhammad
(Sallallaho alaihe wsallam)and his companions."

He then asked for water.He was offered some milk.He took it and said:

     "I heard the Prophet (Sallallaho alaihe wsallam) saying to me,
"Milk shall be the last drink of your worldly life"

     He then fought till he met his conveted.He was then aged about
ninety-four.
