The Conquest Of Mecca by AbuAbdirrahmaan: 11:43pm On Mar 19
"When the victory of Allah has come and the conquest, and you see the people entering into the religion of Allah in multitudes, then glorify the praises of your Lord and seek His forgiveness; indeed, He is ever accepting of repentance." (Quran 110:1-3)

📌 1️⃣ The Greatest Victory
On the 19th of Ramadan, 8 AH, the Conquest of Mecca took place. It was a defining moment where Allah honored Islam, His Messenger, and the believers. With this victory, people entered Islam in crowds, and the face of the earth shone with faith and light.

📌 2️⃣ The Treaty Broken
After the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, Quraysh violated their agreement by aiding Banu Bakr against the Prophet’s allies. Realizing their mistake, they sent Abu Sufyan to renew the treaty, but the Prophet ﷺ did not accept.

📌 3️⃣ A Grand Army Marches
The Prophet ﷺ commanded his companions to prepare silently, leading 10,000 believers toward Mecca. He prayed, "O Allah, conceal our movement from Quraysh." Their entry was strategic and peaceful, ensuring minimal bloodshed.

📌 4️⃣ A Merciful Conquest
When the Prophet ﷺ entered Mecca, he recited:
"Truth has arrived, and falsehood has perished; for falsehood is bound to perish." (Quran 17:81)
He destroyed 360 idols around the Kaaba and proclaimed the oneness of Allah.

📌 5️⃣ The Moment of Forgiveness
Quraysh, fearing retribution, stood before the Prophet ﷺ. Instead of revenge, he forgave them all, saying:
"No reproach upon you today; Allah will forgive you." (Quran 12:92)
Thus, Islam entered Mecca with peace, not bloodshed.

📌 6️⃣ A Lesson for Us
This conquest teaches humility in victory, mercy in power, and unwavering faith in Allah’s promise. The Prophet ﷺ could have taken revenge, but he chose forgiveness and unity, setting an eternal example of compassion and leadership.

May Allah grant us humility, wisdom, and steadfastness, may He forgive us and our parents and may we conquer our own struggles with patience and faith. Aameen. 🤲
