To proceed
This is an urgent message to our revolutionary brothers in Libya those who have removed the dress of idleness and clinging and have adorned the dress of honor and life
O honorable brothers
Allah the Almighty has certain established ways that do not change, and certain laws on earth that are eternal and these ways are renewed with the renewal of circumstances and situations through the passage of time, so it is a must for the believers to know these ways in order to learn how to use them as in the saying of Allah, the Almighty (And if those [Makkans] who disbelieve had fought you, they would have turned their backs [in flight]. Then they would not find a protector or a helper. (22) [This is] the established way of Allah which has occurred before. And never will you find in the way of Allah any change.) (Surah Al Fath 22-23) or work on how to avoid its cause as in the saying of Allah, the Almighty (Allah has already given you victory in many regions and [even] on the day of Hunayn, when your great number pleased you, but it did not avail you at all, and the earth was confining for you with its vastness; then you turned back, fleeing. (Surah At Tawbah 25)) So the believers must necessarily know that the outcome of war is never by numbers and ammunition, instead destiny is in the hands of Allah, and caution does not benefit people if destiny is not with them, for victory is from Allah alone, and the victor is the one whom He grants victory, and failure are those who Allah has failed (If Allah should aid you, no one can overcome you; but if He should forsake you, who is there that can aid you after Him? And upon Allah let the believers rely. (Surah Aal Imran 160))
Indeed in the story of Hunain is a lesson for he who has heart or listens with sound understanding. When the Muslims entered Mecca and demolished the idols around the Kaaba, the Hawazin heard of it and its leader Malik bin Awf an Nasri gathered people and wanted to fight the Muslims, and the Muslims were greater in number and ammunition. It was a decisive battle for this leader and his soldiers who brought even their women and children so that every person would fight defending his family and sons, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) needed ammunition at that time for this dangerous battle and he rented 100 shields from Safwan Ibn Umaiyah who was then an unbeliever
It is related in the Hadith of Anas bin Malik- may Allah be pleased with him- when the people of Mecca and Medina gathered on the day of Hunain, their numbers pleased them, and they said, today by Allah we won’t be defeated for we have united, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) hated what they said, of their being pleased with their numbers (Hakim and classed as Sahih)… the Muslims were 12000 in this battle while the disbelievers were 4000. So some of the Muslims were pleased with their numbers and they said “today we shall not be defeated due to outnumbering” but when the two parties met- and the Muslims relied upon their numbers and weapons- Hawazin ambushed them with an attack like that of a single man, and the people were defeated unmindful of anything, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) moved away towards the right, and started calling the Muslims- Come to me O people, Come to me, I am the Messenger of Allah, I am Muhammad Ibn Abdullah, I am the Messenger it’s not a lie, I am the son of the son of Abdul Mutallib, Ya to the Muhajireen, Ya to the Ansar, and in the beginning of the matter there wasn’t anyone who would respond to him!!!!
The great companions from the Migrants and the Ansar and the people of the house remained with the Prophet, it is said they were 80 men and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) began to spur his mule towards the disbelievers. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), said to Abbas: O Abbas call out to the people of al-Samura. Abbas (who was a man with a loud voice) called out at the top of the voice: Where are the people of Samura? (Abbas said: ) And by God, when they heard his voice, they came back as cows come back to their calves, and said: We are present, we are present! ‘Abbas said: They began to fight the infidels. Then there was a call to The Ansar. Those (who called out to them) shouted: O ye party of the Ansar! O party of the Ansar! Banu al-Harith b. al-Khazraj were the last to be called. Those (who called out to them) shouted: O Banu Al-Harith b. al-Khazraj! O Banu Harith b. al-Khazraj! And the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) who was riding on his mule looked at their fight with his neck stretched forward and he said: This is the time when the fight is raging hot. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) took (some) pebbles and threw them in the face of the infidels. Then he said, Return, May these faces be deformed, there was no one among the enemy whose eyes were not filled with the dust from this handful. So they turned back fleeing. And Allah the Exalted and Glorious defeated them, and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) distributed their booty among the Muslims.
This glorious battle, mighty in its detail, and rich in its lessons and rulings, is the same repetition of battles occurring over the passage of history between truth and falsehood, for truth is ever victorious if its people are on the right, and falsehood is always defeated because Allah dislikes it, but if the people of truth falter and become reliant on self and ammunition and farther themselves from absolute trust in Allah the Almighty the round comes upon them until they revise themselves and ascertain how victory comes, and how defeat occurs, and this is why Omar Bin Al Khattab -may Allah be pleased with him- used to teach his commanders this immortal truth which he learned practically in the ghazwah of Hunain and say: You are victorious by your obedience to Allah, and by the disobedience of your enemies of Him, and if you both become similar in disobedience theirs will be the victory over you”
The fight of the people of truth was never reliant on numbers and ammunition, instead it was on pure reliance on Allah, and if the believers forget this great reality and sleep upon it, the awakening from it would be harsh and difficult and costly
O revolutionaries of Libya…
What we hear today on the TV channels from statements, and what we hear of implications: are all from the destructors, and your delay – by Allah- from entering Banul Waleed and Sabha and Sart is for nothing except due to your pride over your numbers and amount of your ammunition, at a time when you are in the greatest of need for remembrance of Allah and asking for His victory
The genius defiant commander Nur ad deen Mahmud Zinki- may Allah have mercy on him- used to move away from his army and throw himself on earth and dust himself upon it and dig his face in the soil, saying- O Allah grant victory to your religion and don’t grant victory to Mahmud, who is Mahmud the dog to be given victory!! His victories were miracles according to military statistics, and he never ever relied on his number or ammunition, because he knew that the victory granter in the previous battle can also cause his defeat in the coming battle if he relied upon himself or his army
It is the eternal battle of Hunain, that Allah the Almighty narrated to us to show us His verses and ways
Truly Allah has given you victory on many battle fields, and on the Day of Hunain (battle) when you rejoiced at your great number, but it availed you naught and the earth, vast as it is, was straitened for you, then you turned back in flight.(Taubah:25)
So O gathering of revolutionaries, you were granted victory on several occasions (in Benghazi and Tabraq and Tarablus and others) but you stopped at Sart and Banul Waleed as your numbers and your ammunition pleased you, and by Allah it shall not help you in anything, and the earth will become constrained upon you with all its width, if you do not look into your matter, and stand during your night, and humble yourself before your Lord, and dust your face, and knock the doors of the skies with the arrows of Dua- following your Messenger who said in the gazwah of Hunain ‘O Allah fulfill for me what you promised me’ and Allah fulfilled His promise to him, and confirmed His slave and defeated the allies all alone
Verily the Companions of the Messenger of Allah, (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), the best of companions for the best of Prophets, and the best of the Ummah from the people, yet they were not victorious until they answered the call of the Prophet of Allah, (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and they left all their contact with this world
Then Allah did send down His Sakinah (calmness, tranquility and reassurance) on the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), and on the believers, and sent down forces (angels) which you saw not, and punished the disbelievers. Such is the recompense of disbelievers.(Taubah:26) Sa’dee
