BATTLE OF BADR:
Battle of Badr was a great victory of Muslims in
history of Islam.
A final decision between right and wrong.
Battle was fought in 2nd Hijra at the place of Badr.
Allah Almighty helped the muslims with angels.
Quran says
“Your Lord will help you with five thousand
angels”
Holy Prophet (S.A.W) got help from Allah in the
shape of prostration. A long prostration was done
by Holy Prophet (S.A.W).
It was unacceptable for the non Muslims of
Makkah that the total number of Muslims was
increasing day to day, Therefore, they were
searching a reason to attack on Madinah to finish
the Islam and Muslims.
In 2nd Hijra a Carvan was coming back to
Makkah in the leadership of Abu-sufyan from
Syria after completing business at Syria
A false statement was announced by Abu-Jahal
in Makkah that the Carvan had been attacked
and many people had been killed by the Muslims
of the Madinah.
After hearing this news Non- Muslims of makkah
started preparations for war with Muslims
Therefore one thousand soldiers of Non-Muslims
marched towards Madinah in the leadership of
These one thousand people were loaded with full
weapons on the other side the total number of
Muslims were only 313 and they were loaded only
with few weapons.
Holy Prophet called all his companions (Sahaba
Ikram) and prepared for war.
At the place of Badr this war was started, all big
leaders of non-Muslims including Abu-Jahl, Utba,
Sheba and Waleed were killed.
Non-Muslims of Makkah were defeated very badly.
Their seventy soldiers were killed and seventy were
arrested.
Only 22 Muslims got martyred.
