Surah Fath

By 123Muslim

Background

This honorable Surah was revealed after the Messenger of Allah (upon him be blessings and peace) returned from the realm of Al-Hudaybiyyah, during the month of Dhul-Qa`dah, within the sixth yr of Hijrah. This is when the idolaters prevented him from reaching Al-Masjid Al-Haram to carry out the `Umrah he supposed. They stopped the Prophet from reaching Makkah at the moment, but then have been prone to peace negotiations. A peace treaty was performed stipulating that the Messenger would return this yr and then come again for `Umrah the next 12 months. The Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) agreed.

However, a variety of the Companions disliked these terms, including sayyidina `Umar bin Al-Khattab (may Allah be happy with him). After the Prophet (Allah bless him and provides him peace) slaughtered his sacrificial animals within the space the place he was stopped and headed back to Al-Madinah, Allah, Most High, revealed this Surah about what occurred between him and the idolators. Allah declared the Al-Hudaybiyyah peace treaty a manifest victory, because of the advantages peace would carry and the nice outcomes that did originate from it.

Virtue of Surah al-Fath

Imam Ahmad information that sayyidina `Umar bin Al-Khattab said:

“We had been with the Messenger of Allah salla-Llahu ‘alaihi wa sallam on a visit, and I requested him a couple of matter 3 times, but he didn't reply me. So I mentioned to myself, `May your mother lose you, O son of Al-Khattab! You have been stubborn in repeating your query 3 times to the Messenger of Allah salla-Llahu ‘alaihi wa sallam; each time he didn't reply to you.’

So I mounted my animal, my camel, and went forward for worry that a half of the Qur’an may be revealed in my case. Suddenly, I heard a caller calling, `O `Umar!’ So, I went to the Messenger salla-Llahu ‘alaihi wa sallam whereas fearing that a half of the Qur’an was revealed about me. The Prophet stated:

“Last evening, a Surah was revealed to me that is dearer to me than this life and all that it accommodates: ‘Verily, We have given you a manifest victory. That Allah might forgive you your sins of the previous and the future.‘”

— Al-Bukhari, At-Tirmidhi and An-Nasa’i collected this Hadith from several chains of narration by way of Malik, may Allah grant him His mercy
