<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; letter-spacing: 0.25pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="background: white;">Prior to the battle, the Muslims <span class="rcolor3">and therefore the </span>Meccans had fought several smaller
skirmishes in late 623 and early 624. Badr, however, was <span class="rcolor4">the primary </span>large-scale engagement between <span class="rcolor5">the 2 </span>forces. Advancing to <span class="rcolor6">a
robust </span>defensive position, Muhammad's well-disciplined force broke
the Meccan lines, killing several important Quraishi leaders including the
Muslims' chief antagonist Abu Jahl.[3] For <span class="rcolor2">the
primary </span>Muslims, the battle was the first sign that <span class="rcolor3">they could </span>eventually defeat their enemies among the
Meccans. Mecca at <span class="rcolor4">that point </span>was <span class="rcolor5">one among </span>the richest and most powerful cities in
Arabia, fielding <span class="rcolor6">a military </span><span class="rcolor1">3 times </span>larger than that of the Muslims.[4] The
Muslim victory also signaled to <span class="rcolor2">the opposite </span>tribes
that <span class="rcolor3">a replacement </span>power had arisen in
Arabia and strengthened Muhammad's position as leader of <span class="rcolor4">the usually </span>fractious community in Medina.</span><br />
<span style="background: white;">Battle of Badr624, CE in Islamic history, the first
military victory of the Prophet Muhammad. It seriously damaged Meccan prestige
while strengthening the political position of Muslims in Medina and
establishing Islam as a viable force <span class="rcolor5">within the </span><span class="rcolor6">Arabian Peninsula</span>. <span class="rcolor1">the
increase </span>of Islam against the Pagan tribes of Mecca was <span class="rcolor2">an important </span>development in military history, <span class="rcolor3">also </span>as <span class="rcolor4">within the </span>history <span class="rcolor5">of faith </span>and society. The Prophet Muhammad was <span class="rcolor6">a talented </span>war leader <span class="rcolor1">also </span><span class="rcolor2">because of the </span><span class="rcolor3">founding father
of</span> faith, and at Badr, his religion was spread by the sword.</span><br />

<span style="background: white;">The Battle of Badr was a key moment in
Muhammad’s armed struggle against Mecca’s pagan tribes. In 622 Muhammad and his
followers had emigrated from Mecca to Medina. From his new base, Muhammad began
raiding Meccan caravan routes. This provoked the Meccan tribes into
sending<span class="rcolor4"> the military </span>to confront Muhammad’s
Muslims. When word of <span class="rcolor5">a very </span>wealthy
caravan escorted by Abū Sufyān, head of the Umayyad clan, reached Muhammad, a
raiding party of about 300 Muslims, to be led by Muhammad himself, was
organized. By filling the wells on the caravan route near Medina with sand, the
Muslims lured Abū Sufyān’s army to battle at Badr, near Madina.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="background: white;">The battle proper started with an exchange of
volleys of arrows, <span class="rcolor6">leading to </span>heavier
casualties being suffered by the Meccan army. Muhammad gave the order to
charge, throwing stones at his enemies <span class="rcolor1">during a </span>traditional
Arabic gesture. The Koran states that the Meccan lines broke under the force of
Muhammad’s attack and speaks of angels descending from heaven to slay the
fleeing enemy. <span class="rcolor2">variety </span>of important Meccan
leaders were among those killed, including Muhammad’s main rival, Amr ibn
Hisham. The armies involved <span class="rcolor3">weren't </span>large:
fewer than 400 Muslims and around 1,000 Meccan fighters. Despite the superior
numbers of the Meccan forces (about 1,000 men), the Muslims scored <span class="rcolor4">an entire </span>victory.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The victory at Badr was <span class="rcolor5">a crucial </span>milestone <span class="rcolor6">within
the </span>establishment of Islam. <span class="rcolor1">it had
been </span>even recorded <span class="rcolor2">within the </span>Qurʾān
as a divine sanction of the new religion: "It <span class="rcolor3">wasn't </span>you
who slew them, <span class="rcolor4">it had been </span>God…in order
that He might test the Believers by a gracious trial from Himself" (8:17).
Those Muslims who fought at Badr became <span class="rcolor5">referred to
as </span>the badrīyūn and <span class="rcolor6">structure </span>one
group of the Companions of the Prophet.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The battle of Badr was <span class="rcolor1">the
foremost </span>important among the Islamic battles of Destiny. For <span class="rcolor2">the primary </span>time, the followers of the new faith were
put into <span class="rcolor3">a significant </span>test. Had victory
been the lot of the pagan army while the Islamic Forces were still at <span class="rcolor4">the start </span>of their developments, <span class="rcolor5">the religion </span>of Islam could have come to an end.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">No one was <span class="rcolor1">conscious
of </span>the importance of <span class="rcolor2">the result </span>of
the Battle <span class="rcolor3">because of the </span>Prophet (S)
himself. <span class="rcolor4">we'd </span>read the depth of his
anxiety in his prayer before <span class="rcolor5">the start </span>of
the Battle when he stood up supplicating his Lord :</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">God <span class="rcolor6">this is often </span>Quraish. it accompanies<span class="rcolor2"> </span>all
its arrogance and boastfulness, trying to discredit Thy Apostle. God, I ask
Thee to humiliate them tomorrow. God, if this Muslim band will perish today,
Thou shall not be worshipped.1</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">At this battle <span class="rcolor3">during
which </span>the pagan army consisted of 950 fighters and 314 (including
the Messenger S), the Islamic defense was <span class="rcolor4">a mixture </span>of three defensive lines :</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">1. The personality of the Messenger, his
leadership, and his unequaled firmness. He (S) was to the Muslims <span class="rcolor5">the ultimate </span>refuge at Badr and at every battle he
attended.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">2. The Hashemites (the clan of the Prophet S),
led by Ali Ibn Abu Talib (as)who entered this battle relatively obscure and
came out with unequaled military fame. His military performances became <span class="rcolor6">the favored </span>subject of the Arab caravans
conversations throughout the Arabic Peninsula.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">3. The <span class="rcolor1">many </span>companions
of the Messenger whose hearts were <span class="rcolor2">crammed with </span><span class="rcolor3">the religion </span>and readiness for sacrifice. Many of
them viewed martyrdom to be again, <span class="rcolor4">adequate to </span>live and victory. These good companions were <span class="rcolor5">the
military </span>of Islam, its first line of defense, and the thick wall behind
which the Messenger (S) <span class="rcolor6">wont to </span>stand.
They were the attackers <span class="rcolor1">and therefore the </span>defenders.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">As to the clan of the Messenger, they were <span class="rcolor3">those </span>that he <span class="rcolor4">wont to </span>call
before <span class="rcolor5">anybody </span>else, <span class="rcolor6">to supply </span>the heavy sacrifice. They <span class="rcolor1">wont to </span><span class="rcolor2">substitute </span><span class="rcolor3">the primary </span>line of defense opening for <span class="rcolor4">the military </span>the way through their thrusts <span class="rcolor5">within the </span>line of the enemies. When <span class="rcolor6">the overall </span>offensives began <span class="rcolor1">and each </span>companion participated, the clan of the
Messenger (S) was <span class="rcolor2">the foremost </span>damaging
to the enemies. They were so at Badr and at <span class="rcolor3">the
subsequent </span>battles.</span></span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="background: white;">The battle began when Utbah Ibn Rabi-ah, his son
Al Walid and his brother Sheibah (all from the Ommayad) stood <span class="rcolor4">ahead </span>of the pagan army and asked the Prophet (S) to
send to them their equals for a dual. <span class="rcolor5">many </span>companions
were around him <span class="rcolor6">and lots of </span>of them were
expecting to be called upon by the Prophet (S) but he <span class="rcolor1">prefers
to </span>start from his <span class="rcolor2">circle of
relatives</span>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The load was heavy <span class="rcolor3">and
therefore the </span>heavy load <span class="rcolor4">might be </span>carried
only by the people to whom it belonged as he called upon Ali, Al Hamza and
Obediah Al Harith (all from the clan of the Prophet) to face the three warriors.
Ali destroyed Al Walid and Al Hamza killed Utbah; then they both assisted
Obediah against his opponent Sheilah. Sheila died immediately and Obediah
was <span class="rcolor5">the primary </span>martyr at this battle. He
died after he lost his leg.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">When <span class="rcolor6">the overall </span>offensive
began, <span class="rcolor1">many </span>companions participated <span class="rcolor2">in the </span>battle and offered sacrifices and pleased
their Lord. But the members of the house of the Messenger (S) distinguished
themselves. Ali's endeavor was unique at this battle. When Hanthala Ibn Abu
Sufyan faced him, Ali liquefied his eyes with one blow from his sword. He
annihilated Al Auss Ibn Saeed, and met Tuaima Ibn Oday and transfixed him <span class="rcolor3">together with his </span>spear, saying “You shall not
dispute with us in God after today.”</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The Messenger (S) took <span class="rcolor4">a
couple </span>of gravel when the battle was extremely heated. He threw it
at the faces of the pagans saying “ May Your faces be disfigured. God, terrify
their hearts and invalidated their feet. “ The pagans ran away, turning their
faces to <span class="rcolor5">nobody</span>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The Muslims went on killing them and taking
prisoners. 70 pagans met their death, <span class="rcolor6">and therefore
the </span>Muslims took from them, 70 prisoners. History preserved in its
records only a fifth of the names out of the 70 pagans loses. Twenty2 or twenty
two3 of them died at Ali's hand.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">This battle laid <span class="rcolor1">the
the inspiration </span>of the Islamic State and made out of the Muslims a
force to be reckoned with by the dwellers of the Arabic Peninsula.</span><br />

Kubra at the wells of Badr</span><br />
<span style="background: white;">Muhammad was born in Mecca around 570 CE into
the Quraish tribe. After Muhammad's revelation from Gabriel in 610 until his
proclamation of monotheism to the Quraysh, Islam was practiced primarily <span class="rcolor1">secretly</span>. The Quraysh, who traditionally accepted
religious practices <span class="rcolor2">aside from </span>their own,
became increasingly more <span class="rcolor3">impatient of </span>the
Muslims during the thirteen years <span class="rcolor4">of private </span>attacks
against their (the Meccans) religions and gods.[6] In fear <span class="rcolor5">for his or her </span>religion and economic viability, which
heavily relied on annual pilgrimages, the Meccans began to mock and disrupt
Muhammad's followers. In 622, Muhammad bade many of his followers to migrate
from Mecca to the neighboring city of Medina, 320 km (200 mi) north of Mecca.
Shortly thereafter, Muhammad himself left for Medina.[7][8] This migration
is <span class="rcolor6">mentioned </span><span class="rcolor1">because of
the </span>Hijra.[9]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The Quranic Verse 22:39[10] uttered by Muhammad
sometime shortly after the migration permitted Muslims, for <span class="rcolor2">the primary </span>time, <span class="rcolor3">to
require </span>up arms in defense. During <span class="rcolor4">this
era, </span>Muhammad employed three broad military strategies against the
Meccans. Firstly, <span class="rcolor5">to determine </span>peace
treaties with the tribes surrounding Medina, especially with those from whom
the Meccans could derive most advantage against the Muslims. Secondly, to
dispatch small groups <span class="rcolor6">to get </span>intelligence
on the Quraish and their allies and also provide, thereby, <span class="rcolor1">a chance </span>for those Muslims still living in
Mecca <span class="rcolor2">to go away </span>with them. Thirdly, to
intercept the trade caravans of the Meccans that passed <span class="rcolor3">on the brink of </span>Medina and to obstruct their trade
route.[11][12] In September 623, Muhammad himself led a force of 200 in an
unsuccessful raid against <span class="rcolor4">an outsized </span>caravan.[citation
needed] Shortly thereafter, the Meccans launched their own raid against Medina
led by Kurz bin Jabir and fled with livestock belonging to the Muslims.[13] In
January 624, Muhammad dispatched <span class="rcolor5">a gaggle </span>of
eight men to Nakhlah, on the outskirts of Mecca, led by Abdullah bin
Jahsh <span class="rcolor6">to get </span>intelligence on the
Quraysh.[14][15] However, Abdullah bin Jash and his party disguised as pilgrims
with shaved heads, upon being discovered by a Meccan caravan, decided to attack
and kill as many of the caravan as possible, <span class="rcolor1">leading
to </span>killing <span class="rcolor2">one among </span>its men,
Amr bin Al-Hadrami, the seizing of its goods and taking two as
prisoners.[16] <span class="rcolor3">things </span>were all the more
serious since the killing occurred <span class="rcolor4">within the </span>month
of Rajab, a truce month sacred to the Meccans <span class="rcolor5">during
which </span>fighting was prohibited, and <span class="rcolor6">a
transparent </span>affront to Arab traditions. Upon their return to
Medina, Muhammad initially disapproved of this decision on their part, rebuked
them, and refused <span class="rcolor1">to require </span>any spoil
until he claimed <span class="rcolor2">to possess </span>received
revelation (Quran, 2:217) stating that the Meccan persecution was worse than
this violation of the sacred month. After his revelation, Muhammed took <span class="rcolor3">the products </span><span class="rcolor4">and therefore
the </span>prisoners.[17][18][19][20] The Muslims' raids on caravans
prompted the Battle of Badr, <span class="rcolor5">the primary </span>major
battle involving a Muslim army. This was the spot where the Meccans had sent
their own army <span class="rcolor6">to guard </span>their caravans
against Muslim raiders.[21][22]</span><br />

<span style="background: white;">In April 624, <span class="rcolor1">it had
been </span>reported in Medina that Abu Sufyan was leading a caravan from
Syria to Mecca containing weapons to be used against the Muslims. Muhammad
gathered 313 men and <span class="rcolor2">visited </span>Badr to
intercept the caravan. However, Meccan spies informed Abu Sufyan about the
Muslims coming to intercept his caravan; Abu Sufyan changed his course <span class="rcolor3">to require </span>another path to Mecca and sent a message
to Mecca. Abu Jahl replied to Abu Sufyan's request and gathered <span class="rcolor4">a military </span>to fight against the Muslims.[23]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Muhammad's forces included Abu Bakr, Umar, Ali,
Hamza, Mus`ab ibn `Umair, Az-Zubair bin Al-'Awwam, Ammar ibn Yasir, and Abu
Dharr al-Ghifari. The Muslims also brought seventy camels and two horses,
meaning that they either had <span class="rcolor5">to steer </span>or
fit three to four men per camel.[24]The future Caliph Uthman stayed
behind <span class="rcolor6">to worry </span>for his sick wife
Ruqayyah, the daughter of Muhammad.[25] Salman the Persian also <span class="rcolor1">couldn't </span>join the battle, as he was still not a free
man.[26]</span></span></span><br />

Hishām, Walid ibn Utbah, Utbah ibn Rabi'ah, and Umayyah ibn Khalaf, joined the
Meccan army. Their reasons varied: some were <span class="rcolor2">bent </span>protect

<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">— Muhammad – Sahih Muslim</span><br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When the word reached the Muslim army about the
the departure of the Meccan army, Muhammad immediately called a council of war,
since there was still time to retreat <span class="rcolor2">and since </span>many
of the fighters, <span class="rcolor3">there have been </span>recent
converts (called Ansar or "Helpers" <span class="rcolor4">to
differentiate </span>them from the Quraishi Muslims) who had only pledged
to defend Medina. Under the terms of the Constitution of Medina, <span class="rcolor5">they might </span><span class="rcolor6">are </span>within
their rights to refuse to fight and leave <span class="rcolor1">the
military</span>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Abu Bakr stood up and gave <span class="rcolor2">a brief </span>speech, saying, "The chiefs and warlike
men of Quraysh have joined this army. Quraysh <span class="rcolor3">hasn't </span><span class="rcolor4">in the least </span>expressed faith <span class="rcolor5">during </span>religion and <span class="rcolor6">hasn't </span>fallen
from the zenith of glory to the abyss of degradation. Furthermore, <span class="rcolor1">we've </span>not begun Madina fully prepared."[29][30] Abu Bakr was trying <span class="rcolor3">to mention </span>that he believed <span class="rcolor4">they
ought to </span>not fight <span class="rcolor5">and will </span>return
to Medina.[31]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Miqdad then gave a speech supporting Muhammad,
saying, "O Prophet of Allah! Our hearts are with you and <span class="rcolor6">you ought to </span>act <span class="rcolor1">consistently
with </span>the orders given to you by Allah. By Allah! We shall not tell
you what Bani Israel told Musa. When Musa asked them to perform jihad they said
to him: 'O Musa! You and your Lord should go and perform jihad <span class="rcolor2">and that we </span>shall sit here'. We, however, tell you
quite the reverse of it and say: Perform jihad under the auspices of the
blessings of Allah <span class="rcolor3">and that we </span><span class="rcolor4">also are </span>with you and shall fight."[32] Muhammad
was pleased with Miqdad's speech; however, he also wanted <span class="rcolor5">to understand </span>what the Ansar thought, as Miqdad was a
Mujahid. Sa'd ibn Ubadah, an Ansar, then declared, "We have borne
witness <span class="rcolor6">that you simply </span>are the Messenger
of God. <span class="rcolor1">we've </span>given you our pledge to obey
you. Wherever you go, we shall <span class="rcolor2">accompany </span>you.
If <span class="rcolor3">there's </span>a showdown with the
polytheists, we shall be steadfast in our support to you. In war and in peace,
we shall be consistently faithful to you."[33] So, the Muslims continued
to march towards Badr.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Badr wells were located on the gentle slope
of the eastern side of a valley called "Yalyal". The western side of
the valley was hemmed in by <span class="rcolor4">an outsized </span>hill
called 'Manual. When the Muslim army arrived from the east, Muhammad initially
chose <span class="rcolor5">to make </span>his army at <span class="rcolor6">the primary </span>well he encountered. Habib ibn
al-Mundhir, however, asked him if this choice was divine instruction or
Muhammad's own opinion. When Muhammad responded <span class="rcolor1">within
the </span>latter, Hubab suggested that the Muslims occupy the well
closest to the Quraishi army, and block off <span class="rcolor2">the
opposite </span>ones. Muhammad accepted this decision and moved <span class="rcolor3">directly</span></span><br />

<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">By contrast, while little <span class="rcolor1">is understood </span>about the progress of the Quraishi army
from the time it left Mecca until its arrival just outside Badr, several things
are worth noting: although many Arab armies brought their women <span class="rcolor2">and youngsters </span>along on campaigns both to motivate
and <span class="rcolor3">look after </span><span class="rcolor4">the
lads</span>, the Meccan army <span class="rcolor5">didn't</span>.
Also, the Quraish apparently made little or no effort to contact <span class="rcolor6">the various </span>allies <span class="rcolor1">that they
had </span>scattered throughout the Hijaz.[36] Both facts suggest the
Quraish lacked the time <span class="rcolor2">to organize </span>for <span class="rcolor3">a correct </span>campaign in their haste <span class="rcolor4">to guard </span>the caravan. Besides, <span class="rcolor5">it's </span>believed they expected <span class="rcolor6">a
simple </span>victory, knowing they outnumbered the Muslims by three <span class="rcolor1">to at least one</span>.[citation needed]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">When the Quraishi reached Juhfah, just south of
Badr, they received a message from Abu Sufyan telling them the caravan was
safely behind them, <span class="rcolor2">which </span><span class="rcolor3">they might, </span>therefore, return to Mecca.[37] At <span class="rcolor4">now</span>, <span class="rcolor5">consistent with </span>Karen
Armstrong, <span class="rcolor6">an influence </span>struggle
broke <span class="rcolor1">call at </span>the Meccan army. Abu Jahl
wanted to continue, but several of the clans present, including Banu Zuhrah and
Banu Adi promptly went home. Armstrong suggests <span class="rcolor2">they'll </span><span class="rcolor3">are </span>concerned about <span class="rcolor4">the
facility </span>that Abu Jahl would gain from crushing the Muslims. The
Banu Hashim tribe wanted <span class="rcolor5">to go away</span> but
was threatened by Abu Jahl <span class="rcolor6">to remain</span>.[38]
Despite these losses, Abu Jahl was still determined to fight, boasting
"We <span class="rcolor1">won't </span><span class="rcolor2">return </span>until <span class="rcolor3">we've </span>been to Badr." During <span class="rcolor4">this era</span>, Abu Sufyan <span class="rcolor5">and many other</span> men from the caravan joined <span class="rcolor6">the most </span>army.[39]</span></span></span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Day of battle</b></span><br /><span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">At midnight on 13 March, the Quraish broke camp
and marched into the valley of Badr. It had rained the previous day <span class="rcolor2">and that they </span>struggled <span class="rcolor3">to
maneuver </span>their horses and camels up <span class="rcolor4">Capitol
Hill </span>of 'Manual. After they descended from 'Aqanqal, the
Meccans <span class="rcolor5">found out </span>another camp inside the
valley. While they rested, they sent out a scout, Umayr ibn Wahb, to
reconnoiter the Muslim lines. Umayr reported that Muhammad's army was
small, <span class="rcolor6">which </span><span class="rcolor1">there
have been </span>no other Muslim reinforcements that<span class="rcolor2">
could </span>join the battle.[40] However, he also predicted extremely
heavy Quraishi casualties <span class="rcolor3">within the </span>event
of an attack (One hadith refers to him seeing "the camels of [Medina]
laden with certain death").[41] This further demoralized the Quraish, as
Arab battles were traditionally low-casualty affairs, and <span class="rcolor4">depart </span>another round of bickering among the Quraishi
leadership. However, <span class="rcolor5">consistent with </span>Arab
traditions Amr ibn Hishām quashed the remaining dissent by appealing to the
Quraishi's sense of honor and demanding that they fulfill their blood
vengeance.[42]</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The death of Abu Jahl, <span class="rcolor6">and
therefore the </span>casting of the Meccan dead into dry wells</span><br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The battle began with champions from both armies
emerging <span class="rcolor1">to interact </span>in combat. Three of
the Medinan Ansar emerged from the Muslim ranks, only to be shouted back by the
Meccans, who were nervous about starting any unnecessary feuds and only wanted
to fight the Muhajirun, keeping the dispute within the clan. So Hamza
approached and called on Ubaydah ibn al-Harith and Ali <span class="rcolor2">to hitch </span>him. The Muslims dispatched the Meccan
champions <span class="rcolor3">during a </span>three-on-three
melee. <span class="rcolor4">the primary </span>fight was between Ali
and Walid ibn Utbah; Ali killed his opponent. After the fight between Ali and
Walid, Hamza fought Utbah ibn Rabi'ah, and Ubaydah fought Shaybah ibn Rabi'ah.
Hamza killed Utbah; however, Ubaydah was mortally wounded by Shaybah. Ali
(and, <span class="rcolor5">consistent with </span>some sources, Hamza
as well) killed Shaybah. Ali and Hamza then carried Ubaydah <span class="rcolor6">back to </span>the Muslim lines, where he died.[43][44][45]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now both armies began showering <span class="rcolor1">one another </span>with arrows. <span class="rcolor2">a
couple of </span>Muslims and an unknown number of Quraish warriors were
killed. Before the battle, Muhammad had given orders for the Muslims to attack
first with their ranged weapons and only afterward advance <span class="rcolor3">to interact </span>the Quraish with melee weapons. Now he
gave the order to charge, throwing <span class="rcolor4">a couple </span>of
pebbles at the Meccans in what was probably <span class="rcolor5">a
standard </span>Arabian gesture while yelling "Defaced be those
faces!"[46][47] The Muslim army yelled "Yā manṣūr amit!"[48]
"O thou whom God hath made victorious, slay!" and rushed the Quraishi
lines. The Meccans, understrength and unenthusiastic about fighting, promptly
broke and ran. The battle itself only lasted <span class="rcolor6">a couple
of </span>hours and was over by <span class="rcolor1">the first </span>afternoon.[46]
The Quran describes the force of the Muslim attack in many verses, which <span class="rcolor2">asked </span>thousands of angels descending from Heaven at
Badr to terrify the Quraish.[47][49] Muslim sources take this account
literally, <span class="rcolor3">and therefore there</span> are
several hadith where Muhammad discusses the Angel Jibreel and the role he
played <span class="rcolor4">within the </span>battle.[citation needed]</span><br />

<span style="background: white;">After the battle, Muhammad returned to Medina. As
far <span class="rcolor6">because the </span>treatment of prisoners was
concerned, Abu Bakr believed that <span class="rcolor1">they ought
to </span>be ransomed, since they were <span class="rcolor2">in any
case </span>their own kin. Umar argued against this, saying that <span class="rcolor3">there's </span>no notion of blood relationships as far as
Islam <span class="rcolor4">cares </span>, <span class="rcolor5">which </span>all
the prisoners should be executed, <span class="rcolor6">which </span>everyone
should execute him who is closest to him by blood. Ali should kill his brother
Aqeel ibn Abi Talib, Hamza ibn Abdul-Muttalib should behead his father Abbas
ibn Abd al-Muttalib, <span class="rcolor1">which </span>he himself
should kill someone <span class="rcolor2">on the brink of </span>him.
Muhammad preferred the opinion of Abu Bakr, <span class="rcolor3">and
therefore the </span>prisoners were ransomed.[50] <span class="rcolor4">the subsequent </span>verse was revealed in <span class="rcolor5">reference to </span>this event:</span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="background: white;">The Battle of Badr was extremely
influential <span class="rcolor5">within the </span>rise of two men who
would determine the course of history on the <span class="rcolor6">Arabian
Peninsula </span>for the <span class="rcolor1">subsequent </span>century. <span class="rcolor2">the primary </span>was Muhammad, who was transformed
overnight from a Meccan outcast into <span class="rcolor3">a serious </span>leader.
Marshall Hodgson adds that Badr forced <span class="rcolor4">the
opposite </span>Arabs to "regard the Muslims as challengers and
potential inheritors to the prestige <span class="rcolor5">and therefore
the </span>political role of the [Quraish]." Shortly thereafter he
expelled the Banu Qaynuqa, <span class="rcolor6">one among </span>the
Jewish tribes at Medina that had been threatening his political position, and
who had assaulted a Muslim woman which led to their expulsion for breaking
the <span class="rcolor1">peace</span>. At <span class="rcolor2">an
equivalent </span>time Abd-Allah ibn Ubayy, Muhammad's chief opponent in
Medina found his own position seriously weakened. Henceforth, he would only
be <span class="rcolor3">ready to </span>mount limited challenges to
Muhammad.[60]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The other major beneficiary of the Battle of
Badr was Abu Sufyan, safely far away<span class="rcolor5"> from </span>the
battle leading the caravan. The death of Amr ibn Hashim, <span class="rcolor6">also </span>as many other Quraishi nobles[61] gave Abu
Sufyan <span class="rcolor1">the chance </span>, almost by default, to
become chief of the Quraish. As a result, when Muhammad marched into Mecca six
years later, <span class="rcolor2">it had been </span>Abu Sufyan who
helped negotiate its peaceful surrender. Abu Sufyan subsequently became a
high-ranking official <span class="rcolor3">within the </span>Muslim
Empire and his son Muawiya would later <span class="rcolor4">continue </span>to
found the Umayyad Caliphate.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">In later days, the battle of Badr became so significant
that Ibn Ishaq included <span class="rcolor5">an entire </span>name-by-name the roster of the Muslim army in his biography of Muhammad. In many hadiths,
veterans who fought at Badr are identified <span class="rcolor6">intrinsically </span>as
a formality, <span class="rcolor1">and that they </span>may have even
received a stipend in later years.[62] The death of the last of the Badr
veterans occurred during <span class="rcolor2">the primary </span>Islamic <span class="rcolor3">war</span>.[63]</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">As Paul K. Davis sums up, "Mohammed's
victory confirmed his authority as the leader of Islam; by impressing local tribes
that joined him, the expansion of Islam began."</span><br />
<span style="background: white;">Badr <span class="rcolor4">within the </span>Quran</span><br />
<span style="background: white;">The Battle of Badr is <span class="rcolor5">one
of </span>the few battles explicitly discussed <span class="rcolor6">within the </span>Quran. <span class="rcolor1">it's </span>even
mentioned by name as <span class="rcolor2">a part of </span>a
comparison with the Battle of Uhud.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Quran: Al Imran 3:123–125 (Yusuf Ali).
"Allah had helped you at Badr when ye were a contemptible little force;
then fear Allah; thus May ye show your gratitude. Remember thou saidst to the
Faithful: "Is it not enough for you that Allah should <span class="rcolor3">assist you </span>with three thousand angels (Specially)
sent down? "Yea, – if ye <span class="rcolor4">stand </span>, and
act aright, <span class="rcolor5">albeit </span>the enemy should rush
here on you in hot haste, your Lord would <span class="rcolor6">assist
you </span>with five thousand angels Making a terrific onslaught."</span></span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="background: white;">According to Abdullah Yusuf Ali, the term
"gratitude" <span class="rcolor2">could also be in</span> <span class="rcolor3">regard to </span>discipline. At Badr, the Muslim forces had
allegedly maintained firm discipline, whereas at Uhud they broke ranks to
pursue the Meccans, allowing Meccan cavalry to flank and rout their army. <span class="rcolor4">the thought </span>of Badr as a Furman, an Islamic miracle,
is mentioned again <span class="rcolor5">within the </span>same surah.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Quran: Al Imran 3:13 (Yusuf Ali). "There
has already been for you <span class="rcolor6">a symbol </span><span class="rcolor1">within the </span>two armies that met (in combat): One was
fighting <span class="rcolor2">within the </span><span class="rcolor3">explanation
for </span>Allah, <span class="rcolor4">the opposite </span>resisting
Allah; these saw with their own eyes Twice their number. But Allah doth
support <span class="rcolor5">together with His </span>aid whom He
pleaseth. <span class="rcolor6">during this </span><span class="rcolor1">may
be a </span>warning for <span class="rcolor2">like </span>have
eyes <span class="rcolor3">to ascertain </span>."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Badr <span class="rcolor4">is
additionally </span><span class="rcolor5">the topic </span>of Sura 8:
Al-Anfal, which details military conduct and operations. "Al-Anfal"
means "the spoils" and <span class="rcolor6">maybe </span><span class="rcolor1">regard to </span>the post-battle discussion <span class="rcolor2">within the </span>Muslim army over <span class="rcolor3">the
way to </span>divide up the plunder from the Quraishi army. Though the
Sura <span class="rcolor4">doesn't </span>name Badr, it describes the
battle, <span class="rcolor5">and a number of other </span>of the verses
are commonly thought <span class="rcolor6">to possess </span>been from
or shortly after the battle.</span><br />

<span style="background: white;">This battle <span class="rcolor1">is

death and returned to Allah's Apostle <span class="rcolor1">to tell </span>him
of that. Allah's Apostle asked, "Which of you has killed him?" Each
of them said, "I Have killed him." Allah's Apostle asked, "Have
you cleaned your swords?" They said, "No. " He then <span class="rcolor2">checked out </span>their swords and said, "No doubt,

<span style="background: white;">Sahih Al-Bukhari: Volume 5, Book 59, Number 287.</span><br />
<span style="background: white;">It has been narrated on the authority of Anas
that when (the news of) the advance of Abu Sufyan (at <span class="rcolor1">the
top </span>of a force) reached him. the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon
Him) held consultations <span class="rcolor2">together with his </span>Companions.
The narrator said: Abu Bakr spoke (expressing his own views), but he (the Holy
Prophet) <span class="rcolor3">didn't </span><span class="rcolor4">attend </span>to
him. Then spoke 'Umar (expressing his views), but he (the Holy Prophet) <span class="rcolor5">didn't </span><span class="rcolor6">attend </span>to him
(too). Then Sa'd b. 'Ubada stood up and said: Messenger of Allah, <span class="rcolor1">you would like </span>us (to speak). By God in Whose control
is my life, if you order us to plunge our horses into <span class="rcolor2">the
ocean</span>, <span class="rcolor3">we might </span>do so. If you
order us to goad our horses to <span class="rcolor4">the foremost </span>distant
place like Bark al-Ghimad, <span class="rcolor5">we might </span>do so.
The narrator said: Now the Messenger of Allah ( Peace Be Upon Him) called upon
the people (for the encounter). <span class="rcolor6">in order that
they </span><span class="rcolor1">began </span>and encamped at Badr.
(Soon) the water-carriers of the Quraish arrived. Among them was a black slave
belonging to Banu al-Hajjaj. The Companions of the Messenger of Allah (may
peace be upon him) caught him and interrogated him about Abu Sufyan and his
companions. He said: <span class="rcolor2">I do know </span>nothing

family, he said to his wife, "O Um Safwan! Don't you recognize what Sad
told me? "She said, "What has he told you?" He replied, "He
claims that Muhammad has informed them (i.e. companions that they're going to
kill me. I asked him, 'In Mecca?' He replied, 'I don't know." Then Umaiya
added, "By Allah, I will be able to never leave of Mecca." But when
the day of (the Ghazwa of) Badr came, Abu Jahl called the people to war,
saying, "Go and protect your caravan." But Umaiya disliked to travel
out (of Mecca). Abu Jahl came to him and said, "O Abu Safwan! If the
people see you staying behind though you're the chief of the people of the
Valley, then they're going to remain behind with you." Abu Jahl kept on
urging him to travel until he (i.e. Umaiya) said, "As you've got forced me
to vary my mind, by Allah, i will be able to buy the simplest camel in Mecca.
Then Umaiya said (to his wife). "O Um Safwan, prepare what I want (for the
journey)." She said to him, "O Abu Safwan! have you ever forgotten
what your Yathribi brother told you?" He said, "No, but I don't want
to travel with them except for a brief distance." So when Umaiya went out,
he wont to tie his camel wherever he camped. He kept on doing that till Allah
caused him to be killed at Badr.</span><br />

al-Khattab who said: When it had been the day on which the Battle of Badr was
fought, the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) cast a look at the
infidels, and that they were one thousand while his own Companions were 300 and
nineteen. The Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) turned (his face) towards
the Qibla Then he stretched his hands and commenced his supplication to his
Lord:" O Allah, accomplish on behalf of me what Thou hast promised to me.
O Allah, cause what Thou hast promised to me. O Allah, if this small band of
Muslims are destroyed. Thou won't be worshipped on this earth." He
continued his supplication to his Lord, stretching his hands, facing the Qibla,
until his mantle slipped down from his shoulders. So Abu Bakr came to him,
picked up his mantle, and put it on his shoulders. Then he embraced him from
behind and said:. Prophet of Allah, this prayer of yours to your Lord will
suffice you, and He will fulfill for you what He has promised you. So Allah, the
fantastic and Exalted, revealed (the Qur'anic verse):" When ye appealed to
your Lord for help, He skilled your call (saying): I will be able to assist you
with one thousand angels coming in succession." So Allah helped him with
angels.</span><br />

on the day (of the battle) of Badr and he was covered with armor; such a lot
that only his eyes were visible. He was surnamed Abu Dhat-al-Karish. He said
(proudly), 'I am Abu-al-Karish.' I attacked him with the spear and pierced his
eye and he died. I put my foot over his body to tug (that spear) out, but even
then I had to use an excellent force to require it out as its both ends were
bent." 'Urwa said, "Later on Allah's Apostle asked Az-Zubair for the
spear and he gave it to him. When Allah's Apostle died, Az-Zubair took it back.
then Abu Bakr demanded it and he gave it to him, and when Abu Bakr died,
Az-Zubair took it back. 'Umar then demanded it from him and he gave it to him.
When 'Umar died, Az-Zubair took it back, then 'Uthman demanded it from him and
he gave it to him. When 'Uthman was martyred, the spear remained with Ali's
offspring. Then 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair demanded it back, and it remained with
him till he was martyred.</span><br />

Ibn 'Abbas who said: While thereon day a Muslim was chasing a disbeliever who
was going before him, he heard over him' the swishing of the whip and therefore
the voice of the rider saying: plow ahead, Haizi'm! He glanced at the
polytheist who had (now) fallen down on his back. When he checked out him
(carefully he found that) there was a scar on his nose and his face was torn as
if it had been lashed with a whip, and had turned green with its poison. An
Ansari came to the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) and related this
(event) to him. He said: you've got told the reality. This was the assistance
from the third heaven. The Muslims that day (i. e. the day of the Battle of
Badr) killed seventy persons and captured seventy. The Messenger of Allah (may
peace be upon him) said to Abu Bakr and 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them):
what's your opinion about these captives? Abu Bakr said: they're our kith and
kin. I feel you ought to release them after getting from them a ransom. this
may be a source of strength to us against the infidels. it's quite possible
that Allah may guide them to Islam. Then the Messenger of Allah (may peace be
upon him) said: what's your opinion. Ibn Khattab? He said: Messenger of Allah.
I don't hold an equivalent opinion as Abu Bakr. I'm of the opinion that you
simply should hand them over to us in order that we may stop their heads. fork
over 'Aqil to 'Ali that he may stop his head, and fork over such and such
relative to me that I'll but off his head. they're leaders of the disbelievers
and veterans among them. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him)
approved the opinion of Abu Bakr and didn't approve what I said subsequent day
once I came to the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him), I found that
both he and Abu Bakr were sitting shedding tears. I said: Messenger of Allah,
why are you and your Companion shedding tears? Tell me the rationale. For I
will be able to weep ate, if not, I will be able to a minimum of pretend to
weep in sympathy with you. The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said:
I weep for what went on to your companions for taking ransom (from the
prisoners). I used to be shown the torture to which they were subjected. it had
been delivered to me as close as this tree. (He pointed to a tree on the brink
of him.) Then God revealed the verse:" it's not befitting for a prophet
that he should take prisoners until the force of the disbelievers has been crushed..."
to the top of the verse:" so eat ye the spoils of war, (it is) lawful and
pure. So Allah made booty lawful for them."</span><br />

said: He (Ibn 'Umar) missed (the point). The Messenger of Allah (may peace be
upon him) had (in fact) said: He (the dead) is punished for his faults or for
his sins, and therefore the members of his family are waiting for him now.
(This misunderstanding of Ibn 'Umar is analogous to his saying: ) The Messenger
of Allah (may peace be upon him) stood by the well during which were lying the
dead bodies of these polytheists who had been killed on the Day of Badr, and he
said to them what he had to mention, i. e.: They hear what I say. But he (Ibn
'Umar) misunderstood. The Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) had only said:
They (the dead) understand that what I wont to tell them was the truth. She then
recited:" Certainly, thou canst not make the dead hear the call"
(xxvii. 80), nor are you able to make those hear who are within the graves, nor
are you able to inform them once they have taken their seats in Hell.</span></div>
