Commentary
Taaa-‘ifataani- (Two parties), the aim from these two parties is the people of those two
tribes ‘Banu Harthah’ and ‘Banu Salmah’,
who had become broken hearted and almost fallen away at the time of the
Battle of ‘Uhud.
The plan of the
battlefield has been described in the pervious lesson. You have read it earlier
that the total numbers of Muslims were just one thousand against three
thousand Quraysh braves. Three hundred Fraudster Hypocrites
returned in the way out of those one thousand with their leader ‘Abd-Allah ibn
Ubayy . it was not extraordinary thing for feeble-hearted persons to
be worried after observing this situation. The people of ‘Banu Harthah’
and ‘Banu Salmah’ became perplexed and thought, “What will happen
now?” Allah Almighty raised feelings of ambition and courage in their hearts,
and expelled the concept of deficiency and majority of manpower from their
hearts.
The Muslims advanced
with such power of trust in Allah Almighty that the spirit of Infidels went to end
and they began to run from the battleground. The Warriors of Islam began to
arrest them and collect their equipment. When the fifty archers, appointed at
the hill-pass, observed this situation, they also involved in it. Even they
forgot the warning of Holy Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace of
Allah Almighty be upon him) and did not care to their leader’s advice.
Khalid bin al-Waleed had not yet embraced Islam. He was leading the enemy’s Army
(of Makkan Infidels). As soon as he observed that the
hill-pass was without the archers, he collected his deserting companions,
attacked with their help from that side and changed the map of battlefield. The
Muslims were confused and they suffered with many casualties. Even the
Messenger of Allah Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon
him) personally was injured.
The Muslims drew up in a line again. They advanced
and engaged in a desperate undertaking once again, beat the Quraysh braves
and drove them back. The world knew that deficiency or surplus manpower had no
value in the battlefield, but the steadfastness and patience of the crusaders, victory
and support from Allah Almighty are of use.
