In the Name of Allah,
the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
“Among the believers are men who
have been true to their covenant with
Allah [i.e., they have gone out for
Jihad (holy fighting), and showed not
their backs to the disbelievers]; of
them some have fulfilled their
obligations (i.e., have been martyred);
and some of them are still waiting,
but they have never changed (i.e., they
never proved treacherous to their
covenant which they concluded
with Allah) in the least.” (33:23)

The Man

Sa‘d bin M u‘adh was the chief of Bani Abdul , v ,
Ash-hal, a branch of Al-Khazraj tribe. He was a ,V
man of dignity, honor and wisdom. He was the i t
most well spoken person of his tribe. He was also , v >
very strong and brave when it came to facing e I - »■
enemies.

Like the rest of the Arabs in the Arabian
Peninsula, Sa‘d and his tribe worshipped idols
made of stone. The Jews who were their neighbors
knew that they were leading a misguided life, but
they never tried to help guide them. On the
contrary, they were always threatening them that a
new Prophet would appear in Arabia. They told
them that they would follow the new Prophet and
defeat them.

More Challenges
The following year, the Quraish
gathered a heavily armed army of three thousand
men. This time they thought they would come back
with the heads of the Muslims dragging behind their
horses. They even aroused their slaves and women to
share in what they thought to be the final battle
against Muhammad H and his Companions.
Consequences of Disobedience
On the way to the battlefield close to Mount Uhud,
some hypocrites led by Abdullah bin Ubay retreated
to Al-Madinah. They said that the Prophet M did not
listen to their advice to stay inside Al-Madinah.
However, the rest of the Muslims continued their
march to Uhud. The Prophet M began preparing for
the battle and organizing the rows of his army. He
deployed fifty archers over a small hill to protect the
backs of the Muslim army. The Prophet |g ordered the
archers not to leave their positions whatever the
result of the battle would be.
Although she lost her son, she told the Prophet §§,
that nothing in the world would be equal to his
position in her heart.
