Today’s topic of discussion is the conquest of Mecca. 21 years ago, the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) received prophethood from Allah in the city of Mecca. For the first three years of his prophethood, his invitation to Islam was limited to his relatives and family. In the fourth year, he began to openly call others to Islam directly. Later, the Quraysh tribe began attacking the Muslims. They started atrocities and torture against Muslims. Then a group migrated and took Abu Se, unable to bear the torture, left. The Battle of Badr took place in the second year after the Prophet (peace…

All the wars that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had previously waged were mainly wars against internal factions or to suppress them. But with the Battle of Mut’ar, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) started a war with the Romans, which was the first international war. The word “Roman” or “Rum” in the hadith basically refers to the West. And “Sham” refers to the countries of present-day Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, and Jordan – which we discussed earlier. This war was the first time Muslims and Christians faced each other on the battlefield. If this…

After the Treaty of Hudaybiyah, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) sent letters to the kings of the surrounding regions inviting them to Islam. The Quraysh had already lost the psychological war to the Muslims. In this context, in the eighth year of the Hijri, three prominent men or important people of the Quraysh decided to embrace Islam. First, we will discuss the story of Amr ibn al-As (may Allah be pleased with him). He himself narrated that he fought against the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in the Battle…

First, we will discuss the story of Safiyya bint Huyai (may Allah be pleased with her) marriage to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This Safiyya bint Huyai (may Allah be pleased with her) is the daughter of the leader of the Banu Nazir tribe. This leader died at the hands of Muslims in the Battle of Khyber and his son was killed by Muslims. Her husband, brother, father were all killed by the Muslims in the Battle of Khyber and she was taken prisoner of war. In that case, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon…

Today’s topic is the Battle of Khyber. This war was fought against the Jews. Previously, a truce was signed with the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) for 10 years with the Quraysh. Let’s first discuss how this war began. The people of Khaybar did not show hostility to the Muslims during the life of Mecca or in the early days of Islam. But after giving shelter to the Banu Nazir tribe, their attitude began to change. The Banu Nazir tribe fled from Medina and took refuge in Khaibar, and from the moment they took refuge, the Jews there began to be hostile…

Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was a man of great self-respect. He was deeply hurt by the terms of the argument. He could not accept that they had come to perform Umrah, but would return without performing Umrah. However, he later regretted his behavior. Here he questioned the terms of the treaty because he wanted victory on the “Din” of Allah. At first glance, his terms seemed insulting, so he did not want to make peace with the infidels. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called Ali (may Allah be pleased…

And [mention] when We made the House a place of return for the people and [a place of] security. And take, [O believers], from the standing place of Abraham a place of prayer. And We charged Abraham and Ishmael, [saying], “Purify My House for those who perform Tawaf and those who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer].” (Quran 3:125) The Kaaba has a certain attraction that once one sees the Kaaba, one wants to see it again and again. Due to the prayer of Ibrahim (peace be upon him), Allah created a love…

Today we will discuss the military campaign of the sixth year of the Hijri. After the Quraysh were defeated in the Battle of Khandaq in the fifth year of the Hijri calendar, it was generally believed that no one would be able to defeat the Muslims again. Because it was not possible to gather another large army and attack Medina again. So everyone understood that the Islamic state of Medina would be the most powerful Islamic state in the world. But defeating the Quraysh alone was not enough to implement it. Because there were some Bedouin groups who did not…

A year after the Battle of the Trench, the Treaty of Hudaybiyah was signed between the Muslims and the Quraysh. Through this treaty, the Quraysh essentially accepted the Muslims’ allegiance. When the Muslims were patient in the Battle of Badr, the Battle of Uhud, and the Battle of the Trench, the infidels themselves went astray mentally. This is precisely why Abu Sufyan was never able to raise an army against Medina. Although it is said that the Muslim state was established soon after the Hijra, the initial steps in establishing this state were very difficult. As the first Muslim state,…

In this episode, we will discuss the fate of the Banu Qurayzah tribe. The campaign against the Banu Qurayzah tribe was largely a result of their treachery, leading to the Battle of the Trench. We discussed the Battle of the Trench, in which the Quraysh chose this Banu Qurayzah tribe to create a rebellion in Medina, as they were unable to join the Muslims in battle. Yet this tribe had made an agreement with the Muslims that they would not take any action against the Muslims. Yet this Banu Qurayzah tribe had made an agreement with the Muslims that they…
