alhamdulillah
on the fifth year of the battle of
Al or the
trench or known as
alab the
Confederates took place now remember
that the Battle of UD took place in the
third year of
Hijra so between the third year and the
fifth year there were many things that
took
place
now we know that there were
tribes of the Jews living within
Medina they broke the
treaties that the prophet had with them
Alam and they betrayed
him so he had to
send them out of
Medina and they were forced to leave
their homes and their tribes because
of them breaking their
treaty this did not go well down their
throats so the Jews of
B were determined
to avenge themselves from the prophet
and from the
Muslims so they started
to
plot and do their spider
web by going to
qur and encouraging them to come in and
invade
Medina and they told them that they will
speak to the tribe of rfan they will
speak to the Jews of bani who were still
living in Medina and did not break their
treaty with the prophet
Alam and they would gather a huge Army
that would be capable of besieging
Medina conquering it and annihilating
Islam once and
forever and
they went to the tribe of gatfan
and they promised them to give
them the
dates and the
Harvest of the palm trees of K that
coming year which was a huge amount of
money so they managed to form an army of
10,000 men led by Abu
sufyan and in the month of shaal
of the fifth year of
Hijra they started to
March when the prophet heard of their
coming and he consulted his
companions the story says that Salman
Ali who came from
Persia gave an idea to the prophet
Alat to dig a
trench around
Medina at the outskirts of it so that it
would hinder the advancement of such a
huge Army and would give them Headway to
fight them back and to attack
them and the prophet liked this idea so
the companions started to dig this
trench and they worked for a number of
of days day and
night in one
incident they were encountered by a
big
boulder that they could not
break so they called The Prophet Alat
wasam
remember Allah
described the circumstances in the
Quran and told us about the
fear of the
Muslims of what's going to
happen we were told also in the Sunnah
about the freezing
weather and we were also told about the
poverty that all the Muslims were
encountering they had no
food and they used to tie a rock around
their stomachs to curb the hunger and
the prophet had two
Stones tied to his
stomach so they did not know what to do
with this Boulder and they called The
Prophet Alam who
came and the prophet salallahu alhi
wasallam hid it once and lightning came
out of
it and he said
allahar I I can
see the Palaces of IA he hear it again
and he says allahar I can see the
Palaces of
Persia
and after succeeding in digging this
huge trench when
the disbelievers Army
approached it they were shocked and they
said that this is something that is
not of the things that the Arabs
know and it shows us that the prophet
Alat
wasam was always taking the
initiative and accepting new ideas it
was not a time to be stagnant and
refusing rather it was time to be
Progressive and adopt anything that
would benefit the
da and save the
Muslims the
Jew went
and talked to the Jews of
bani
and at the
beginning the Jews
were consistent
refusing any attempt to
betray the treaties between them and the
prophet because they saw what happened
to their brethren in
and but he kept on pressuring them
pressuring them until they accepted and
conceded and they started to plot
against the prophet Alam so that he
would
be faced by the enemy Army
and B from behind his
back different
fronts a number of skirmishes took place
but not a real war because they could
not face the
Muslims and they could not bypass this
trench so a number of soldiers kept on
trying
to
bypass it or sneak through it yet with
the grace of
Allah the Muslims
were on the watch alali may Allah be
pleased with him
heroically killed some of them and
defeated some of them and made the rest
run
away it was said that it this besiege
took place for approximately a year
where the hypocrites
started
complaining and spreading rumors they
say Prophet Muhammad Alam promises us
with the treasures of bantia and
Persia while one of us is unable to go
and answer the call of nature in safety
without being afraid for his
life for one
month they
besieged and
surrounded
Medina may Allah be pleased with
him the head of the a tribe from the
ansar was hit by an arrow that no one
knows who threw it and it was
injured because of
that and
after this period of
fear and
anticipation Allah the almighty as
mentioned inah chapter 33 sent upon them
Fierce winds and
cold that swept them from their places
and took out their tents and they were
scared of that so they fled back back to
their homes qur the tribes ofan went
back to their
Homeland leaving the Jews
behind unattended and
alone so this was not a real war but a
test
of
nerves and it was mental rather than
physical and Allah
has described
this in the
Quran where Allah says among the
Believers are men true to what they
promised Allah among them is he who has
fulfilled his
vow to be
death
and among them
who
awaits his
chance so all of this was described in
the
Quran and Allah tells us how he
managed to send this
wind and
that this
made the enemies of Islam lose the
battle which it did not start and it
took away their tents and their strength
and their food and their
equipment and this was by Allah's doing
alone
subhanahu
and
afterwards it was time to settle the
score with the Jews of
bani whom were allies to s
mu who was injured as we've mentioned
earlier and prayed to Allah not to make
his day come before he's
satisfied to see what happens to the
tribe of
bani this is when
Allah
defeated the
disbelievers
and got the Jews out of
Medina because of their betrayal and
deceit and granted Victory once again to
the Muslims so that everyone in Arabia
knows that they are the dominant power
of Arabia at the moment and the
attempts to annihilate
Islam is no longer possible or even on
the
menu and that the Muslims are here to
