The treaty made at Hudaibiya was that both the parties would not make war against each other for10 years.
However there was also the practice with Arabs that they considered the battle of their ‘co-oathers’ to be their own. Now despite of disloyalty, Bani Khazala were ‘co-oathers’ with the Muhammad.
Banu Bakr was the same to the Quraish. So when Banu Bakr attacked Bani Khazala, the chief of banu Khazala came to medina and related their miseries in the form of a poem to Muhammad. Muhammad took pity upon him and comforted him. He then asked his Sahaba to prepare for the battle ahead.
Abu Sufiyan heard the news of war preparations and submitted himself to Muhammad in Medina for the removal of the peace pact. But he came back empty handed. The Quraish did not believe that Muhammad would advance towards them but Abu Sufiyan was dead sure of that.
Abu Sufiyan came out to see the new developments and saw the Muslim Army at a distance. Muhammad asked the Muslims to light fires in front of every camp. Abu Sufiyan got very embarrassed and asked Hazrat Abbas to find a some solution. Hazrat Abbas seated him on his donkey and brought him into the army camp. Hazrat Umar recognized Abu Sufiyan and rushed to kill him with a sword. But Hazrat Abbas took him too Muhammad. Umar asked Muhammad permission to kill Abu Sufiyan. But Hazrat Abbas said that he had promised him peace and safety.
Umar and Abbas argued and finally Muhhamad asked Abbas to keep Abu Sufiyan with him that night.# [ ]
“When Abbas(R.A.) presented Abu Sufiyan before the Holy Prophet(Sal’am) the next morning, he (Sal’am) asked Abu Sufiyan how long would he refuse to accept Truth? Abu Sufiyan submitted that he (Sal’am) was undoubtedly exstremely kind and compassionate that he treated him so gracefully inspite of his mischief’s. Abbas (R.A) asked him to embrace Islam before Umar(R.A.) came. Abu Sufiyan did so. Now Abbas (R.A.) submitted to the Holy Prophet(Sal’am) that Abu Sufiyan was a respectable person and that he should be treated so. He (Sal’a proclaimed that those hiding in the house of Abu Sufiyan would get peace, and those inside Ka’aba or keeping himself in closeed doors would get peace and safety.”[ ]
#Muhammad asked his uncle Abba to keep Abu Sufiyan standing at the end of the mountain so that he saw the Islamic force in its full strength, glory and splendor. As he expected Abu Sufiyan was shocked when he saw the troops after troops of the Muhajir and Ansars passing that way.#[ ]
“Abu Sufiyan rushed back to the Quraish and informed them to their terror that Muhammad(Sal’am) was heading with such a big and strong army that none could force them. He also mentioned the declaration that those getting shelter in the house of Abu Sufiyan or Ka’aba or remained in closed doors or embraced Islam would get peace and security. His wife passed filthy remarks.” [ ]
#Muhammade asked Zubair , Sa’ad bin Ibadah and Khalid Waleed to take various routes fixed for them without hurting anybody unless they resisted. Khalid Waleed faced some resistance from Akrama bin Abi Jehal who stood in theyr way with some men. 25 to 30 men of Akrama were killed. Abu Sufiyan rushed to Muhammad to stop the bloodshed, fearing that none would survive of the Quraish.# [ ]
“Hazrat(Sal’am) declared peace and then enetered Holy Ka’aba with stick in his holy hand making idols falling one by one and reciting ‘Ja –al- Haqqo wa zahaqal batil’. After that he asked non believers packed to capacity in the holy Ka’aba as to what did they think about his treatment to meted out to them. The Quraish spoke in one voice that he (Sal’am) was kind and compassionate and only kindness and compassions could be expected from such a person.
Now Hazrat (Sal’am) declared that there was no punishment that day and all of them were free and safe. The Quraish became so happy as if they were saved from the gallows. Thousands of men and women embraced Islam that day. All other idol-temples lost their so called dignity at the hand of Muslim soldiers.” [ ]

After their return from Hudaibiya, the Muslims decided to conquer Khaiber in the 7th Hijra. 1700 soldiers were sent for this purpose. The ‘Hypocrites’ of Medina informed the people at Khaiber.
Three of the four forts were easily conquered.
One day Muhammad said that he would consign the flag to the person who kept Allah and his messenger as his friend. Many sahaba armed themselves and walked in front of the camp. Muhammad inquired about Ali. The Sahaba informed him that Ali could not take part because he had conjunctivitis.# [ ]
“The Holy Prophet(Sal’am) applied his saliva to his eyes which got cured for the whole of life”[ ]
#Mohammad gave him the flag and prayed To Allah for his success. Hazrat Ali killed some unbelievers. He was challenged by a Jewish wrestler named Merhab who was famous in all the areas even in Yemen and Syria.# [ ]
“Hazrat Ali fell in wrath and struck at his head so forcefully that it came down leaving his back apart. When it became almost impossible to open the gate of the fort, Hazrat Ali came running his horse and moved the gate so strongly that it practically came to his hand and he threw it away raising up to head that the forces of Islam rushed into fort and started killing the non believers.” [ ]
#The people of the fort requested peace. They were willing to hand over their weapons and give every soldier a camel full of grain. Ali stopped the fighting. At the end forty youths could not lift the gate.

Muhammad once dreamt that he entered the Ka’aba with The Sahaba and performed Umrah(off seasonal Haj). So he prepared and took 1400 Sahaba and appointed Abdullah bin Umme Maktum his Caliph at Medina. He also took 70 camels for sacrifice.
Bashar bin Safyan met Muhammad and told him that The Meccans had heard about this and had appointed Khalid bin Waleed as their chief. They had also vowed not to leave a single Muslim alive.
Muhammad halted at Hudaibiya and said that they did not want to fight the Quraish, but wanted to perform Umrah.# [ ]
“Arwah reported to the Quraish that the Muslims held his prophet in such a high esteem that he had never seen before…When he (Sal’am) starts talking his companions keep mum and forget their existence and rush for Wudu water in a manner that it looked as if they would fight for that. It is better therefore not to fight with them. Each of them thinks himse4lf fortunate when he dies.” [ ]
#Muhammad sent Uthman to The Quraish to explain that they wanted to perform ‘Umrah’. They responded that they would not let Muhammad go alive if he came to performed Umrah. They also said that Uthman was welcome to perform Umrah. He refused in the absence of Muhammad and so they became angry and took Uthman captive.# [ ]
“The Holy Prophet(Sal’am) became very sad and administered an oath of allegiance under a tree that either they would kill the Quraish or sacrifice their own lives in the cause. Allah the Almighty praised those youths in the Holy Quran that Allah became pleased with them when they were taking oath of allegiance” [ ]
#When the Quraish learned of this renewal of the oath of allegiance, they sent Suhail bin Umar to sign a peace treaty.
After a war in words a treaty was ordered to be prepared.# [ ]
“The Holy Prophet(Sal’am) asked Hazrat Ali(R.A.) to write’Bismillahir rehma-nir Rahim’ first.
Suhail argued that they would not accept the word’Rahman’ and they never called Allah’ with that name and so they should write’Beimeka Allahumma’. Though the Sahaba would not accept the condition, but Hazrat(Sal’am) agreed that they could write in that manner as well.
Now Hazrat(sal’am) asked Ali to write ‘haza-ma gaza alaihe Mohammadur-rasoolullahe Sallallaho alaihe wa Sallam’.
Suhail objected to this phraseology too and argued that had they accepted the prophet hood, there would have been no conflict between them. The holy Prophet(Sal’am) said that he was certainly Mohammad Rasoolullah and Mohammad bin Abdullah and O’Ali rub off the word ‘Rasoolullah’. Hazrat Ali vowed not to obliterate the word but hazrat rubbed that word off.” [ ]
#The conditions of the treaty were as follow:
Muhammad should go back to Medina with his army that year and perform Umrah the next year.
When they performed Umrah they needed to leave their swords in their cases, and they could only stay in Mecca for three days.
They were not to fight for ten years.
The Meccans were free to move anywhere.
If any companions of Muhammad entered their territory, they will not return, but if they entered their territory by mistake, their men would need to be returned.
These were very hard conditions for the Sahaba to accept. When the treaty was signed, Muhammad asked the people to sacrifice their animals and shave their heads. He asked them three times, but nobody reacted.
His consort Umme Salmah advised him to shave his own head and sacrifice his own animal and that the Sahaba would see it and follow his example. It happened so.#[ ]

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.”[ ]

“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.”[ ]

“When the foundation of Shariah became strong owing to support rendered by the migraters and their supporters and the cruelties of the infidels crossed all limits, Allah the Almighty sent down verses regarding Jihad and assassination of non believers was ordered valid.
Now the Holy Prophet(Sal’am) asked the believers to be firm and alert and started sending forces to varius spots of disturbances. The Battles which had the Holy Prophet(Sal’am) at the helm of affairs are called ‘Gharwah’ and the battles in which he (Sal’am) had his holy companion to head the army are called ‘Sitya’”
#Ghazwah-e-Badr is well noted among the Ghazwas. Badr is the name of a well in a village. Every year a fare is held there in which Arabs used tosell their merchandise.
Muhammad received news that Abu Sufiyan was going with caravana of the Quraish tribe towards Syria. He prepared with 313 men of Mahajir and Ansar and he appointed Umroo bin umme Maktum a his governor at Madina.
Abu Sufiyan learned about Mohammad’s intention and sent for help from Mecca, as he new that his goods would make Mohammad very strong. The whole Quraish tribe including Abu Jehal prepared an army to face the situation.
Mohammad gave flags to Hadrat Ali, Hadrat Mashal bin Unair and to Sa’ad bin Ma’az. Most of his companions (Sahaba) started on foot. Two to Three shared a camel and there were only two or three calvary men. Muhammad received information that Abu Sufiyan had fled along the river bank and that that there was now a big army from Mecca instead. This disturbed the sahaba.
Muhammad sought advice from them. Abu Bakr pledged his complete loyalty. He turned to the Ansars and Sa’ad bin Ma’az Ansari declared that they were ready to plunge in the river if Muhammad said so.
When Abu Sufiyan reached Mecca, he sent a message to his men to come back and prepare to attack the Muslims the next year. Abu Jehal refused.#[ ]
“Jahan bin Sallat described his dream that a person catching the nose string of a camel came and called that Atibbah Shibah and Ummayyah bin Khalaf were killed and others would follow suit. After that he slaughtered camel with his sword but the wounded camel fled away, while its blood reached every camp. Abu Jehal ridiculed this dream and said that another prophet had emerged among the Quraish”[ ]
Suggestions from the companions of Muhammad
#Abu Bakr suggested that they close all the wells and that they construct cisterns close to them to store water.
Sa’ad bin Ma’az the chief of the Ansars suggested they make a shady bed for Muhammad and prepare some swift footed camels for Muhammad incase they were defeated and would have to flee to Medina for his presence would do much to console the woman and children.
Muhammad was pleased with these suggestions.#[ ]
The battle
“After that the Holy Prophet (Sal’am) invoked Allah that the Quraish were haughty(arrogant) and non believers and hence help me Allah and fulfill Thy promise.”[ ]
#A group of non believers tried to drink from the cistern and the sahaba killed them all but Hakem bin Hazam embraced Islam.#[ ]
“Then Aswad bin Aswad, one of the most brave among the Arbabs came out with his sword swearing by Laat and Uzzah to demolish the cisterns of the Holy prophet (sal’am) but Hadrat Amir Hamzah got him killed. After that Atabbah bin Rabiah, his brother Shibah and his son Waleed came out and challenged the Faithfuls. …They asked Muhammad to send their equals.At this the Holy prophet(Sal’am sent Hamzah(radiallahho anho), Ali (radiallahho anho) and Obaidah bin Harith on his behalf and the nonbelievers were consigned to Hell.”[ ]
#The Nonbelievers now made an all out attack. Eight to ten non believers fought with each Muslim soldier.
Muhammad raised his hands in prayer and invoked Allah that :# [ ]
“it was the only group of mankind on earth that believed thee and if that was also annihilated, who would remain there to pray to thee?
Allah the Almighty sent Hadrat Jibrail with five thousand angels which resulted in 70 richmen of the Quraish killed and 70 others arrested. It said that the nonbelievers whom the faithful advanced to kill was found already dead. Though the angels came down to help the faithfuls in other battles too but did not take part in any battle other than that of the battle of Badr” [ ]
#Abu Jehal came with his horse, two young Muaz and Maooz, killed him. Muhammad asked about Abu Jehal. Abdullah bin Masood found him badly wounded. He sat on his chest and cut of his head.# [ ]
“When the head of Abu Jehal was submitted to the holy Prophet(Sal’am) he (sal’am) thanked Allah and declared that Pharoah of his ummah was killed.” [ ]
