Some of the Quraish chiefs had been killed in the battle of Badr and some had been arrested. Others had fled. Akrama bin Abi Jehal, Abdullah bin Rabiah, Safwan bin Ummayah and others went to Abu Sufiyan and asked for help in order to avenge their shameful defeat. Abu Sufiyan gave monetary assistance and came to lead the army. His wife Hinda the daughter of Atibbah who was killed in the battle of Badr joined him.

Jabeer bin Moaz’zam, one of the chiefs of the Quraish had a slave named Wahshi, whos weapon never failed him. Hida and Jabeer bin Moaz’zam was told that if he killed Hamzah  or Ali or Mohammad that he would be greatly rewarded.# [ ]

“The Holy prophet (Sal’am) saw a dream that a few oxen of the Muslims were killed and ther appeared a hole in the sword of the Prophet(Sal’am) and he(Sal’am) had caught hold of a strong armour. He (Sal’am) interpreted the dream that a group among the best of the Sahaba would be killed and the hole in thje sword  meant that one of his relations would be killed in the battle and the arm caught firmly meant the fort of Medina”  [ ]

#Muhammad gave the advice that they should not go out of Medina, because the enemy would go back when their provisions ran out. Most of the sahaba agreed.

But the young men who were absent at the battle of Badr submitted that they should deal with the enemies outside of Medina, so that their enemies would not think of that they had grown to be afraid.

Muhammad then offered Juma(Friday ) prayers , encouraged his Sahaba for joining Jehad. He put on a steel helmet and wore double armour. The Sahaba saw this and armed themselves. They set out headed by Muhammad. # [ ]

“Abdullah bin Ubai Sal-al, the hypocrite carried back three hundred men but the Holy Prophet paid no attention.” [ ]

#Muhammad selected 50 arrow men under Abdullah bin Jabeer and asked them to face the enemies coming from the valley and come what may, they must not leave the spot. He then foot soldiers ahead and Calvary behind the arrow men.

The Quraish also arrayed their soldiers.

Muhammad took his sword and asked who was there to do justice to that sword. # [ ]

“Several Sahaba came forward but none could get it. Abu Dajana (radiallaho anho) submitted to know the right of the sword. The Holy Prophet (Sal’am) revealed that the right of the sword was to kill non believers with this till he himself assassinated .

“Abu Dajana  submitted that he could do that and having taken the sword of the Holy Prophet advanced towards the enemies haughtily(arrogantly). The Holy Prophet(Sal’am) uttered that such a haughty gesture invites anger of Allah but since this haughtiness made the enemies afraid it was valid for the occasion”[ ]

#Abu Dajana came across Hinda, who was motivating the enemies with her songs. He wanted to kill her, but left her unhurt because it was against his manliness.

In the meantime, Hadrat Amir Hamzah killed the flag bearer of Abu Sufiyan and some other non believers. Hinda asked Wahshi to try his weapon, because Hamzah’s attention was on a fierce battle. Wahshi flung his weapon at the navel of Hamzah, so that Hamzah fell from his horse and died. Hinda rushed to his dead body, cut out his liver and chewed it.

After that Tallha bin Uthman held the flag of the Quraish. Hadrat Ali struck at his leg and he fell down naked and Ali did not kill him out of shame.

Masab bin Umar the flag bearer of Islam was Martyred. The youths fought valiantly.  Ibn Qamiyah, Atib’bah bin Abi Waqqas and Ibn Shabah showered stones upon Muhammad. He was injured and his front teeth were broken. Ibn Qamiyah attacked him with a sword, but Talha held it with his hand and lost the use of his hand. Muhammad then fell in a ditch. Ibn Qamiyah thought that Muhammad was dead and shouted that Mohammad was dead.

The news disheartened the Sahaba, some fought until martyrdom, some left for Medina, but many did not part from Muhammad.

Muhammad climbed out of the ditch.#[ ]

“Saad bin Waqqas shot arrows sending the non-believers  to Hell. The Holy Prophet got pleased with him and uttered’Go on shooting arrows; be my parents sacrificed on you.

When Hadrat (Sal’am) reached the valley Abi bin Khalaf appeared at the scene on horseback with a spear and tried to strike at the Holy Prophet (Sal’am). Zubair bin Awan and other Sahaba wanted to kill him but the Holy Prophet(Sal’am) took the spear from Zubair and touched softly at the neck of Abi Bin Khalaf. That wretched man fell down from horse and started lowing like an ox. His companions led him to Mecca saying that his wound was not so serious as to create so much restlessness. Abi explained that the wound was surely not so deep but the one who injured him was such a person that his attack never fails him and he died enroute to Mecca.” [ ]

#The Sahaba found the situation under control, and they left  their positions and also left the arrow shooters. Akrama bin Abu Jehal showered arrows on the Sahaba so that the Sahaba dispersed. They assembled around Muhammad and the nonbelievers became very disappointed and decided to return to Mecca.# [ ]

“The Holy Prophet (Sal’am) revealed that Quraish would never conquer them in future and Muslim would conquer Mecca instead.”[ ]
