Figure 1: Battle of Trench “Upon the arrival of the pagan army, Khabbab and his fellow Muslims stood on the other side of the trench daring anyone of the pagans to cross over. The siege continued for about one month. The pagans with their huge army were trying their best to cross over the trench and the Jews were waiting for the chance to see the Muslims surrender to have them as an easy prey. 51 Muslims during this time were facing a lot of hardships. Living on limited supplies, they were often very hungry. Khabbab and the other Muslims kept steadfast in the face of this huge dilemma. 51 (Ahmed, 2000, pp. 44–45) Australian Islamic Library (www.australianislamiclibrary.org)
P a g e | 43 “Prophet ﷺ asked one of his men, Hudhayfah ibn al- Yaman (ra), to go on a dangerous mission. The Prophet told him to make his way across the trench to the ﷺ enemy camp where he should find out what they were doing. With much difficulty Hudhayfah crossed the trench and made his way to a circle of Quraysh warriors talking in the darkness. He sat near them, but as there was no fire, no one noticed him. He then heard Abu Sufyan 's voice: 'Let us go home!' he said. 'We have had enough. The horses and camels are dying, the tents keep blowing away, most of the equipment has been lost, and we cannot cook our food. There is no reason to stay!' Shortly after hearing this Hudhayfah made his way quickly and quietly back across the trench and the next morning the Muslims rejoiced to find that what he had overheard had come true-Quraysh and their allies had gone away! The siege of Medina had ended in a great victory for Islam.” 52 Afterwards, Khabbab ibn al-aratt took part in all battles fought in defense of Islam. He participated with the Prophet ﷺ and his fellow Muslims in conquest of Mecca and putting an end to idolatry in the Arabian Peninsula. He also joined the Prophet ﷺ in the Farewell Pilgrimage and was one of the committed believers listening attentively to the farewell sermon of their beloved Prophet ‏.ﷺ The Prophet (Pbuh) and his Companions returned to Medina after completing the pilgrimage.
