THE WAY TO MAKKAH!!
It was 10th of Ramadan in 8 Hijri when Prophet Muhammad ﷺ set out for Makkah with his Muslim army.
This time the Muslim army was such a huge one that showed a successful expansion of Islam.
The army consisted of 10,000 men, which became the largest Muslim force that ever assembled (till that time).
Before entering Makkah, several people came to Prophet ﷺ from Makkah to accept Islam including the chiefs of Quraish like Abu Sufyaan and Abdullah Bin Abu Umayya who were also his cousin brothers.
They said to Prophet ﷺ what Yusuf's brothers had said to Yusuf Alayhis Salaam when they realized their mistake
(As per Ali رضي الله عنه's advice).
They said:
"We swear by ALLAH that ALLAH has preferred you over us, and we certainly have been guilty of sin." (12:91)
To which Prophet ﷺ replied what Yusuf Alayhis Salaam replied:
"No blame lies on you today. May ALLAH forgive you. He is the Most- Merciful of all those who are Merciful." (12:92)
[10 Ramadan 8 Hijri mei Nabi ﷺ apni fauj ke saath Makkah ke liye rawaana hue.
Is baar Musalmaano ki fauj be-inteha badi thi jisse saaf zahir ho raha tha ke Islam ne khoob tarakki kar li thi.
Musalmaano ki fauj mei 10,000 mard shamil the aur ye tab tak ka sabse bada lashkar tha jo Musalmaano ka ek saath ikhatha hua tha.
Makkah mei dakhil hone se pehle hi, Nabi ﷺ ke paas kafi log Makkah se aaye jinhone Islam qubool kar liya tha jismei kuch sardaar bhi shamil the jaise Abu Sufyaan aur Abdullah Bin Abu Umayya jo Nabi ﷺ ke cousin bhai bhi the.
Ali رضي الله عنه ke mashware ke mutabiq, unhone Nabi ﷺ se wo kaha jo Yusuf Alayhis Salaam ke bhayyo ne unse kaha tha jab unhe apni galti ka ehsaas ho gaya tha.
"Qasam ALLAH ki, beshak chun liya ALLAH ne aapko hum par aur yaqeenan hum khata-kaaro mei se hai." (12:91)
Uspar Nabi ﷺ ne unhe wohi jawaab diya jo Yusuf Alayhis Salaam ne diya tha-
"Aaj nahi hai koi ilzaam tumpar. ALLAH tumhaari maghfirat kare aur Wo Rehem karne walo mei se sabse zyada Rehem karne wala hai." (12:92)]
