An
enlightening
accomplishment!
I
finally
visited
an
Islamic
historical
site
that
could
educate
many
people
that
they
can
overcome
any
battle
-
physical,
mental
or
politico-economic-
if
they
place
their
trust
in
Allah.
Badr
-
a
little
town
that
bears
testimony
to
one
of
the
many
mental
and
physical
battles
endured
and
defeated
by
our
Beloved
Prophet
Mohamed
(
may
Allah’s
prayers,
peace,
and
blessings
be
upon
him)
…to
share
a
more
civil,
humanistic,
fair,
and
peaceful
lifestyle
to
local
tribes
(of
that
time)
and
ultimately
the
world.
The
battlefield
has
evolved
into
a
little
town
with
well-lit
streets,
fields
with
children
playing
and
families
enjoying
their
picnics,
surrounded
by
swathes
of
lush
green
date
orchards.
The
sunset
call
to
prayer
starts
on
a
cool
and
breezy
November
evening
(winter
in
Saudi
Arabia).
As
the
melodious
sounds
echo
over
the
town
-
The
Battlefields
of
Badr
-
I’m
delightfully
reminded
that
this
is
symbolic
of
the
victory
of
the
Muslims.
Our
Beloved
Prophet
Mohamed
(
PPBUH)
and
300
Muslim
civilians
won
the
battle
against
the
1000
big,
brutal,
and
well-trained
anti-Islamic
soldiers.
A
battle
and
a
victory
that
bears
testimony
to
the
Muslim’s
trust
in
Allah.
It
bears
testimony
to
their
wit
and
wisdom,
smart
strategizing,
courage
and
confidence,
determination,
firmness
and
forcefulness
in
confronting
the
enemy.
It
was
an
immensely
challenging
situation.
Mental
and
physical
challenges
similar
to
this
still
has
currency
today.
Let’s
take
inspiration
from
the
Muslims
who
fought
in
the
Battle
of
Badr.
Let’s
take
inspiration
from
their
trust
in
Allah.
Let’s
take
inspiration
from
their
courageous
and
wise
attitudes,
…
so
that
we
can
meet
the
gaze
of
our
internal
and
external
battles
-
be
they
physical,
mental,
politico-economic,
or
socio-economic.
