48:2 - That Allah may forgive thee thy faults of the past and those to follow; fulfil His favor to thee;
and guide thee on the Straight Way; 4867
4867 See n. 4428 to xi. 55, and Cf. xlvii, 19. Any mistakes of the past were now rectified, and any future ones prevented by
the free scope now offered, by the act of the Quraish Pagans themselves, to the recognition and free promulgation of
Islam. (48.2)
48:3 - And that Allah may help thee with powerful help. 4868
4868 Three objects or results of the Treaty are mentioned: (1) forgiveness, which is equivalent to Mercy, (2) fulfilment of the
dignity of Prophethood with the dignity of an effective and recognised position in Arabia; (3) opening up a straight way
leading to Islam, by access to Makkah from next year, Makkah being the symbolic centre of Islam. These three are
summed up in the comprehensive phrase "powerful (or effective) help". (48.3)
48:18 - Allah's Good Pleasure was on the believers when they swore Fealty to thee under the
Tree: He knew what was in their hearts and He sent down tranquillity to them and He
rewarded them with a speedy Victory; 48914892489348944895
4895 The Treaty of Hudaibiya itself was a "speedy Victory": it followed immediately after the Bai'at. (48.18)
48:27 - Truly did Allah fulfil the vision for His Apostle: Ye shall enter the Sacred Mosque if Allah
wills with minds secure heads shaved hair cut short and without fear. For He knew what ye
knew not and He granted besides this a speedy victory. 49104911
4910 The Prophet had had a dream that he had entered the Sacred Mosque at Makkah, just before he decided on the
journey which resulted in the Treaty of Hudaibiya. By it he and his people could enter next year without the least
molestation and in the full customary garb, with head shaved or hair cut short, and all the customary minor rites of
pilgrimage. (48.27)
61:13 - And another (favor will He bestow) which ye do love help from Allah and a speedy victory:
so give the Glad Tidings to the Believers. 5445
5445 The supreme Achievement has already been mentioned viz.; the Gardens of Eternity with Allah. But lest that seem too
remote or abstract for the understanding of men not strong in faith, another good news is mentioned which the men
who first heard this Message could at once understand and appreciate-"which ye do love": viz.: Help and Victory. For
all striving in a righteous Cause we get Allah's help: and however much the odds against us may be, we are sure of
victory with Allah's help. But all life is a striving or struggle,-the spiritual life even more than any other; and the final
victory there is the same as the Garden of Eternity. (61.13)
110:1 - When comes the Help of Allah and Victory
110:2 - And thou dost see the People enter Allah's Religion in crowds 6292
6292 The Prophet migrated from Makkah to Madinah, a persecuted man. In Madinah all the forces of truth and
righteousness rallied round him, and the efforts by the Makkans and their confederates to destroy him and his
community recoiled on their own heads. Gradually all the outlying parts of Arabia ranged themselves round his
standard, and the bloodless conquest of Makkah was the crown and prize of his patience and constant endeavour.
After that, whole tribes and tracts of country gave their adhesion to him collectively, and before his ministry was
finished, the soil was prepared for the conquest of the wide world for Islam. What was the lesson to be learnt from this
little epitome of the world's history? Not man's self-glory, but humility; and power but service; not an appeal to man's
selfishness or self-sufficiency, but a realisation of Allah's Grace and Mercy, and the abundant outpouring of Allah's
Praises in word and conduct. (110.2)
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith
Hadith 4.146
Abu Said Al Khudri
Narrated by
The Prophet said, "A time will come when groups of people will go for Jihad and it will be asked, 'Is there anyone amongst
you who has enjoyed the company of the Prophet?' The answer will be, 'Yes.' Then they will be given victory (by Allah)
(because of him). Then a time will come when it will be asked, 'Is there anyone amongst you who has enjoyed the company
of the companions of the Prophet?' It will be said, 'Yes,' and they will be given victory (by Allah). Then a time will come when
it will be said,. 'Is there anyone amongst you who has enjoyed the company of the companions of the companions of the
Prophet?' It will be said, 'Yes,' and they will be given victory (by Allah)."
Sunan of Abu-Dawood
Hadith 1505
Narrated by
Abdullah ibn Abbas
The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to supplicate Allah: "My Lord, help me and do not give help against
me; grant me victory, and do not grant victory over me; plan on my behalf and do not plan against me;
guide me, and made my right guidance easy for me; grant me victory over those who act wrongfully
towards me; O Allah, make me grateful to Thee, mindful of Thee, full of fear towards Thee, devoted to Thy
