سيدنا محمد

Abu Dujanah said: 'I saw someone urging the enemy on,
shouting wildly, and I made for him, but when I lifted my
sword against him he screamed and I saw that it was a
woman; I respected the Apostle's sword too much to use it on
a woman.' That woman was Hind. As usual, Hamzah, the
Prophet's uncle, fought with great courage, but while leading
the Muslims in a fierce attack, which nearly defeated the
Meccans, he was suddenly and cruelly struck down by the
slave Wahshi. Later, Wahshi told how it happened: 'I was
watching Hamzah while he was killing men with his sword. I...
aimed my spear until I was sure it would the mark and hurled
it at him. He came on towards me but collapsed and fell. I left
him there until he died, then I came and took back my spear.
Then I went back to the camp because I did not want to kill
anyone but him. My only aim in killing him was to gain my
freedom.'
The Quraysh warriors were soon scattered and forced to
retreat. It looked as though they had been defeated! Seeing
this, forty of the fifty Muslims archers on top of the mountain
ran down from their position to collect booty, for the Quraysh
army had left many of their belongings behind. The archers
rushed to take what they could, forgetting the Prophet's
orders. Khalid Ibn al-Walid, Commander of the Quraysh
cavalry, saw what' happening and quickly turned his men
around and ordered them to attack the Muslims from behind.
The Muslims were taken completely by surprise. The Quraysh
then began attacking from both sides at once. Many Muslims
were killed and instead of winning they began to lose the
battle.
To add to the confusion, it was rumored that the Prophet
(pbuh) had killed. When the Muslims heard this they were at a
loss to know what to do. Then a man named Anas called out,
'Brothers! If Muhammad (pbuh) has been killed what will your
lives be worth without him? Don't think about living or dying.
Fight for Allah. Get up and die the way Muhammad (pbuh)
died!’ and on hearing these words the Muslims took courage.
