Let
those (believers) who sell the life of this world for the
Hereafter, fight in the cause of Allah, and who so ever fights in
the cause of Allah, and is killed or gets victory, We shall bestow
upon him a great reward.

Explore the geopolitical features of the roads surrounding
Madinah and others leading to Makkah
building alliances with the tribes nearby.
The Prophet wanted to impress upon the polytheists and Jews
of Madinah that the Muslims had smashed their old fears, and
had been too strong to be attacked with impunity
He also wanted to display the power of his followers in order
to deter Quraish from committing any military folly against
him stop them from persecuting the helpless Muslims detained
in Makkah,

The records of Hadith speak eloquently of the fact that the angels
did appear on that day and fought on the side of the Muslims. Ibn
Abbas said: "While on that day a Muslim was chasing a
disbeliever and he heard over him the swashing of a whip and the
voice of the rider saying: Go ahead Haizum. He glanced at the
polytheist who had (now) fallen down on his back.
One of the Helpers captured Abbas bin Abdul
Muttalib, who said: "O Messenger of Allh, by Allh
this man did not capture me. I was captured by a
man who was bald and had the most handsome
face, and who was riding a piebald horse, I cannot
see him here among the people."

and allowed to return to Makka.

1. UNITY OF LEADERSHIP
The Prophet (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam) was the supreme
commander in the battle, an ideal leader who consulted with
his companions, accepted good advices and went at the head
of his forces when the need arose. This generated a
magnificent discipline in the Muslim army, which is contrary
to the deep divisions that characterize the armed forces of the
enemies
2. MILITARY COMPETENCE
The Muslim soldier was known for exemplary fighting
competence, rigorous discipline, obedience to the commander
and a strong communal spirit which the Prophet (sallallahu
`alayhi wa sallam) had worked hard to inculcate in his
companions. This was exemplified in the brotherhood
between the Muhaajirun (Makkan Muslims) and the Ansaar
(Madinan Muslims). On the opposite side, we see that
extreme selfishness and individualism were dominant in the
ranks of the Makkan pagan army
5. CLARITY OF PURPOSE
The chief purpose of the Muslims was to destroy the heads of
infidelity and remove the obstacles from the way of the mission.
Assaulting the caravan of Quraish was only a tactical aim. This is why
we find that the Prophet (sallallahu`alayhi wa sallam) decided to attack
the Makkan Pagan army to realize the strategic chief purpose
mentioned earlier in spite of the fact that the caravan (the tactical aim)
had slipped away
Muslims were fighting to attain God's pleasure, to raise God's word
over all others and to remove material obstacles facing Islam which
aims to liberate man from slavery and ppression. On the other side of
the spectrum, the Pagans were fighting for lowly worldly aims, corrupt
decrepit ideas or in fanatic support of a tribe or clan.

On the day when the true was
distinguished from the false
the day when the two groups
met in battle
However, Allah only grants victory to those who believe in Him and put
their complete trust in Him. Allah sent blessing and help to the believers
in the Battle of Badr and made them victorious (Al-Anfaal 8:26
"Arabs were the weakest of the weak, had the toughest life,
the emptiest stomach, the barest skin and the most obvious
misguidance. Those who lived among them lived in misery;
those who died went to the Fire.
When Allah brought Islam, He made it dominant on the
earth and thus bringing provisions and leadership so thank
Him for His favours, for your Lord is One Who bestows
favours and likes praise
"Allah has promised those among you who believe and do righteous
good deeds, that He will certainly grant them succession to (the
present rulers) in the earth, as He granted it to those who before
them, and He will grant them the authority to practice their religion
that which He has chosen for them (i.e. Islam). And He will surely
give them in exchange security after their fear (provided) they
(believers) worship Me and do not associate anything (in worship)
with Me. But whosoever disbelieves after this, they are the Fasiqun
(rebellious, disobedient to Allah)." [Surah An-Nur 24: 55]
