Madani Period

Islamic state in Madina emerged needing:Administrative structure,laws,justice,family

laws. Aggressive efforts at Dawah and attack on

the false ideologies. Settlement of the migrants in Madina with

their financial support but also their Islamic education and moral training.

Prepare for Jihad and armed resistance against the enemies of Islam.

Treaties with Jews. Hypocrites in Madina. Change of Qibla. Warning for pagans that their trade route

to Syria could be blocked. Abdullah bin Hajash led an ambush upon a

Pagan’s caravan.Omar bin Hadarmi died.This happened without the Prophet’s approval.

A big trade caravan of pagans was en route from Syria to Mecca.

Abu Sufyan sent a man to Mecca to get help He announced in Mecca that Muslims

attacked the caravan. Most of the pagan leaders prepared for fight 1000 men strong army prepared to march

to Madina.

Decisive battle with impact on future Muhajiroon came with no assets Ansaars had no experience of battle. Tribes of Jews had hidden animosity Hypocrites and some pagans in Madina Muslims resources and numbers were

disproportionately less than pagans.

He presented the situation before Sahaba He asked whether we should go after the

trade caravan or face pagan’s army Many opined to go after the caravan Prophet asked the question again Miqdad bin Amar ® from muhjiroon said we

shall go with you where Allah’s order is Saad bin Muaaz from ansaar supported

Muslims.313 men.3 horses.70 camels.60 shields.

Pagans. 1000 men

including 100 leaders

.Several horses, camels, swords and shields.

Prophet’s dua before the battle. Difficult test for muhajiroon, stood against

their family members. Pagans were defeated.70 of their men killed

including leaders.70 became POW’s. Pagan’s left lot of valuables behind.

Purpose of Qital is not bounties but making Islam prevalent and to please Allah.

Obedience of ameer is pivotal in Jamaah. Victory in Badar was due to Allah’s Help. Jihad is the ultimate test for a believer. Your money and families are a test. Sabar is the essence of any movement Desire to achieve the objectives should

never allow you to compromise the Islamic guidelines.

Reasons1-Defeat of pagans in Badar alarmed tribes2-Pagans of Meccah wanted revenge.3- Jews of Madina encouraged pagans to fight Pagans advance to Madina in Shawwal,3

Hijra with 3000 men. Prophet consulted the sahaba. Prophet gathered army of 1000

people.Hypocrites withdrew 300 men. Enthusiasm of youth. Story of Rafe and

Samra.

Prophet placed his army in front of uhad mountain.

He appointed 50 archers led by Abdullah bin Jubair to guard corridor in the mountain.

Women in the pagan army sang and beat the drums to encourage their fighters.

In the beginning, Muslims defeated the pagan army. Then they started gathering bounties.

Most of the archers at the Uhad coridoor left to get bounties except few.

Khalid bin Walid, leader of one of pagan’s fighting group attacked from the poorly guarded Uhad coridoor.

Muslims were now attacked from back and front.

Muslim army was dispersed and many were on the run.

Rumor was spread that the Prophet was killed. Many lost their will to fight when got the

rumor.

Prophet was guarded by few sahaba. He was moved up to the mountain. When Muslims heard about Prophet’s

safety, they gathered again and fought. Pagans at that time left the battlefield. Latter, they thought of returning but did

not. Prophet even chased them till Hamra ul

Asad.

Dependence on the Help of Allah. Love of material wealth was one reason for

initial defeat. Allah forbade Riba. Guaranty of success if you are believers. Islamic movement does not depend on

personalities. Fear of death is the root cause of

cowardice.There is appointed time of death.

Uhad’s setback encouraged hostile tribes to stand up against Muslims and fight.

Jofeed tribe tried to attack in Muharram,4H. Lahyan tribe attacked same month. Safar,4H.70 learned sahaba were sent to the

Kallab tribe for teaching Islam & got killed. Two other tribes took 10 sahaba for

teaching.7 were killed and 3 were imprisoned.Khabbab and Zaid were sold in Mecca and latter killed.

Reasons1-Jewish leaders felt threat to their business.2-Quran was openly criticizing Jew's behavior3-Fear of living under Islamic rule. Banu Qanqa- exiled Shawwal, 2H for

declaring war against Muslims. Kaab bin Ashraf executed Rabil Awwal,3H by

Mohammd bin Muslima. Banu Nazeer.Broke treaties and conspired to

kill the Prophet. Exiled to Kheyber.

Jews in Kheyber conspired and incited pagans to bring a 10.000 army to Madina.

Prophet consulted sahaba.Salman Farsi suggested to dig a ditch on open part of city.

8 Ziqad,5H digging started.10 yards of ditch was assigned to 10 people.It was 5 yard deep.

3000 people dug it in 20 days.

Pagans attacked Madina from 3 sides.33:10 Hard test of Iman.Hypocrites exposed.33:12 Enemy kept blockade for one month. They threw stones and arrows. They tried to cross the ditch. With Allah’s sent windstorm, enemies fled.

Trust in Allah’s Help. Test of Iman. Root cause of weakness- fear of loosing life

and property. Excellent example in the Prophet’s conduct. Banu Qureza’s punishment for breaking the

treaty.Blockade.Decision according to their book. 400 people killed, rest made POW.

Zeqad, 6 H, Prophet announced intention to visit Kaaba.1400 Muslims joined him.

Prophet sent someone to find pagan’s plan. Pagans started gathering forces. Prophet continued travel and stopped at

Hudabeya. Prophet sent Osman to negotiate.

News came that Osman has been killed. Bait Ridwan.Prophet gathered Muslims

under a tree and took a pledge that we shall fight till we die or win.

Peace Treaty. Pagan released Osman and sent Suhail bin Amar for peace talks.

A peace treaty was concluded and written.

Muslims shall go back this year. They shall return next year and stay for

3days They shall not have any weapons except

one sword in the shield. They can’t take Muslims left in Mecca and

shall not stop any Muslim from coming back to Meccah.

If someone goes to Madina, he shall be returned but if someone returns to Mecca, shall not be returned.

Tribes shall have the choice to enter into treaty with Muslims or pagans.

This treaty shall be in effect for 10 years--------------------------------------------------------Abu Jandal’s matter.Effects of Hudabeya.

All methods of Jahileya are under my feet. No Arab has superiority over non Arab.You

are children of Adam and he was created from clay.

All muslims are brothers. Feed and clothe your slaves same what you

eat or wear. Killings and Riba of Jahileya are cancelled.

Fear Allah in the matter of women. Your blood and your money is forbidden

for each other. If you hold fast to the book of Allah, you

will not be misguided. He asked,”Have I passed to you Allah’s

message?” Everyone answered,”Yes”. He said,”Now, you must pass on this

message to those who are not here.”
