Why Quran? Presented: The Life of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) | By Sheikh Azhar Nasser
After the Battle of Uhud:
Quraysh mutilate the bodies of Muslims
Prophet Muhammad sends a reconnissance mission to see if the Quraysh will invade Medina or return to Mecca
Various verses of the Quran are revealed to console the Muslims and instruct them on how to recover from the losses
The Meccans decide to come back to finish off the Muslims, but their army is scared away
Nomadic tribes, emboldened by the Muslim’s defeat at Uhud, try to raid the Muslims
Key lessons from the Battle of Uhud:
Do not be naive and assume anyone who claims to be a Muslim is a believer at heart. Uhud exposed the munafiqeen
God’s help is guaranteed when Muslims are united and obey the Prophet
Being Muslim doesn’t guarantee victory. Believers must struggle and endure hardships to achieve success
Beware of succumbing to material temptations. Love of the world can blind even those fighting alongside the prophet
