MEANING OF ISLAM

The word ‚Islam‛ means submission and surrender

to Allah by sincerely worshipping Him alone and

not worshipping any other god, lord or master. All

of the Prophets, including Noah, Abraham, Moses,

Jesus and Muhammad were Muslims.

The word for peace ‚salam‛ is derived from the

same three-letter Arabic root word - SLM - as the

word ‚Islam.‛ Indeed, only through Islam will man

find and establish real and comprehensive peace

MEDINA CHARTER OF THE PROPHET

MUHAMMAD (PBUH) AND PLURALISM

The Medina Charter serves as an example of finding resolution in a

dispute where peace and pluralism were achieved not through military

successes or ulterior motives but rather through respect, acceptance,

and denunciation of war —aspects that reflect some of the basic tenets

of the religion Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, was guiding

and promoting. Through an examination of the Medina Charter, I will

show how pluralism was advanced and instituted in Medina, and the

reasons reflecting on such a document could help avoid the divide and

misunderstanding plaguing much thought, rhetoric, and media today

between Muslims, Christians, and Jews all over the world.

The Quran states that the Lord “teaches by the pen” (96:1-

5). This is indicative of the Medina Charter in that it is a

reflection of these verses, an example of how God is

educating people and changing thought patterns through

discourse, whether in speech or writing. In this case, the

discussion resulted in peace achieved through mutual

consultation, contemplation, and through seeking

agreements in which tribes felt they had benefited from the

charter and had not been robbed of status or undermined by

unresolved antagonism from the past.

HUDAIBIYAH ACCORD

A true example –

Islam is a religion of peace

HUDAIBIYAH INCIDENT

Hudaibiyah encounter occurred not only gave Muslims courage but it also tested their courage and faith in Islam.

JOURNEY FOR UMRA

As per established practice, the Makkanswere bound to allow pilgrims coming – but without arms – to perform Umra. But this time Quraish leaders not allowed Muslims to enter in Makkah.

RUMOR OF KILLING UTHMAN BIN AFFAN

In this situation, despite 400 km away from theircity and having no proper arms to fight, Muslimswere ready to fight unto death. This broke themorale of Makkans and they agreed to discussterms of peace with Muslims

TERMS OF HUDAIBIYAH ACCORD

There will be an armistice between the two parties and no fighting

for the next 10 years.

Any person or tribe who wishes to join Muhammad and to enter

into any agreement with him is free to do so. Likewise any person

or tribe who wishes to join the Quraish and to enter into any

agreement with them is free to do so.

If any Makkan went to Madinah, then Muslims would return him to

Makkah, but if any Muslim from Madinah went to Makkah, he would

not be returned.

If any young man, or one whose father is alive, goes to Muhammad

without permission from his father or guardian, will be returned to

his father or guardian. But if anyone goes to the Quraish of

Makkah, will not be returned.

This year the Muslims will go back without entering Makkah. But

next year Muhammad and his followers can enter Makkah, spend

three days and perform the Umrah.

PATIENCE OF PROPHET (PEACE BE UPON HIM)

The most irritating conditions of the treaty werethe clause Nos. 3 & 5, but the Prophet (peace beupon him) showed extreme patience by acceptingall these terms.

FATAH AL-MUBEEN

When the Prophet returned from Hudaibiya, hereceived the Divine revelation that Almighty Allahhad put a seal of honor on this treaty called “Fatahal-Mubeen”

ABU JANDAL

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to AbuJandal “we have just concluded a treaty withQuraish in the name of Allah and we honor it. Bepatient and resign yourself to the will of Allah. Hewill provide you relief”.

HUDAIBIYAH ACCORD PROVED

Islam in fact a religion that promotes peace andunderstanding among people of all faiths.
