Re: Early Battles in Islam ; my evolution perception & Thesis
Ghazwa e Uhad :
This was the second battle between Muslim living in madina and non-muslims from Mecca.
Both sides were prepared for this battle. Muslim sentiment were high and non-muslims were prepaired for revenge. The result was quite grave and muslims faced serious problems after that.
Ghazwa e Uhad and 1971 War between Pakistan & India.
The structure of Ghazwa -e - Uhad reminds me of war between Pakistan and India, and very tragic break up of country just before the end. The death of one of the brave companion and Uncle of Prophet(pbuh) Hazrat Hamza (ra) during that battle was very trajic event and experience for muslims and their leader.
Muslim lost this battle because of late and hard targeted maneouvre by sideline and covert commander of horsemen. Famously known Khalid Bin Waleed. It is a well known fact that muslim lost this battle due to his pressence in non-musim army and muslim solders not obeying all orders from commander of the army.
Thinking closely about these two events, I can recall a person who somehow provides resemblance. He was our great hero Brig. T M Shaheed. It is well known fact that he was the last person who was air-lifted by army from Dhaka , after the fall of dhaka. Simmilarly , Hazrat Khalid Bin waleed was evacuated from Non-muslim group just before Fatah Makka by Allah Almighty, when he joined muslim and embraced Islam.
Although both personalities were different in life style but simmilar at some points. Both were exceptional commanders and genius war-game experts. The history saved lots of adventures by Khalid Bin Waleed. And Brig. T M (Shaheed ) has marvellous achievement for Pakistan and Muslim. Some of them are known but rest are kept top secret for unknown reasons.
Next Ghazwa e Khandak and more
