At the Muslim conference of war, there were many voices urging Muhammad to march out and attack the Meccans. Muhammad felt that it would be safer to stay in the center of the oasis and take advantage of the heavily fortified strongholds there. Those who wanted to march out argued that the Meccans were destroying their crops, and that huddling in the strongholds would destroy Muslim prestige. Muhammad bowed to the wishes ...

Shia view of the Sahaba - Ahl al-Bayt. While Sunni accept the testimony of all Sahaba as a authenticated part of the chain of narrators in a hadith, without scrutinizing them, Shia do that only for the Ahl al-Bayt. This is due to that Shia believes them to be thoroughly cleansed from all sin, as described in hadith of the Cloak. Others are scrutinizied for reliability.

Watt regards this battle as a setback rather than a defeat. To the Muslims, however, it was a shock. They had expected another victory like Badr. Instead, they had barely held off the invaders and had lost a great many men. This was a large loss to a small community. If Muhammad was Allah's favored prophet, how could this have happened? The usual Muslim explanation for the defeat is that the Muslim forces were on the verge of success when they stopped to loot the Meccan tents. The Muslims, by their own greed, indiscipline, and vainglo ...

Muhammad had preached his message of Islam in Mecca from 613 to 622. He had attracted a small, tight-knit community of followers, but had also succeeded in angering the rest of the Quraysh, the clan that ruled Mecca and to which he belonged. After years of persecution, the Muslims fled Mecca in 622 and established themselves at Medina. They considered themselves to be in a state of war with Mecca and raided Meccan caravans. The Meccans sent out a small army to punish the Muslims and stop their raiding. At the Battle of Badr in ...

According to the early Muslim historian Ibn Ishaq, a number of Meccan women are said to have accompanied Abu Sufyan's army, including Hind bint Utba, his wife. When the Meccans surged into battle, she and the other women stood at the rear, beating tambourines and urging their men forward. She is said to have sung: On ye sons of 'Abdul-Dar, On protectors of our rear, Smite ...

Much of the surviving historical material on early Islamic history consists of old soldiers' tales. Scholars like Ibn Ishaq and Waqidi interviewed the families of the earliest Muslims, writing down the recollections they had heard from their elders. Inevitably, a great many of these recollections consist of accounts of the bravery of the soldier in question, and emphatic denials that he was ever part of the contingent of gr ...
