A very mighty badr war hero
Abu Jahl managed to convince most of the
Quraysh of Mecca to start war. After previously there were a few people who
returned to Mecca first. Among the customs of the Arabs, before the war began,
a duel was carried out by two people representing their respective camps. All
of them are meant to ignite the fires of war and warm the hearts of soldiers.
Among the ranks of the polytheists there is
one person whose behavior is very reprehensible and has a bad character. His
name is al-aswad bin abdul asad al-makzumi. Al-aswad vowed to drink water from
the oasis that the Muslims had ruled. With firm steps he approached the oasis
and wanted to carry out his mission.
Meanwhile, Hamzah bin Abdul Muttalib was
already at the edge of the oasis. Holding the sword tightly. Hamza looked at
al-aswad and would stop him if he wanted to drink water from the oasis of the
Muslims. Al-aswad began to approach the oasis with alacrity hamzah swung his
sword at Aswad’s arm.
The arm broke. Al-aswad fell to the ground bathed in
blood. But he was still stubborn. On all fours he tried desperately to get
closer to the oasis to be able to drink water. Hamzah again slashed his sword
for the second time. Al-Aswad was killed.
Hamza bin Abdul Muttalib has decorated his
chest with oversized ink. He tightly gripped the sword in his hand. While another
sword in the other hand. Ian advanced from the ranks of the Muslims along with
other Islamic fighters. These Muslim soldiers have received a blanket of
blessings from the Messenger of Allah who always protects and protects them.
After the killing of al-Aswad, Utbah bin
Rabi’ah flanked by Shaibah bin Rabi’ah and his son Al-Walid bin Utbah advanced
to the battlefield. They challenged the Muslims to a one-on-one duel.
Three companions of the Ansar came forward
to serve the challenge of the enemy, both sons of al-Harits, plus Abdullah ibn
Rawahah. Because I don’t know who this person is. Utbah asked them where he was
from, knowing that his opponents were the Ansar Utbah didn’t want to serve him
because he didn’t want to seek enmity with the Ansors, and Untbah also told you
they were no match for him. Utbah also cast his gaze on the ranks of the
Muslims to be given an opponent commensurate with him. This response was
welcomed by the Messenger of Allah by ordering his companions. The Prophet
ordered Ubaidah bin Harith, Hamzah bin Abdul Muttalib, and Ali bin Abi Talib.
After getting an opponent commensurate with Utbah, he arrogantly said:
“Well, you are comparable and have the right to be my opponent”.
Ubaidah competed against Utban bin Rabi’ah,
Hamzah bin Abdul Muttalib served the challenge of Syaibah bin Rabi’ah, while
Ali fought Utbah.
Hamzah managed to subdue and kill Shaybah,
he even killed him using his own sword. Ali pounced on al-Walid quickly like
lightning so that the enemy could not dodge. One slash of the sword managed to
kill him and al-Walid fell to the earth bathed in blood.
While Ubaidah is still fighting with his
opponent, Utbah. His body has been injured a lot as well as his opponent. At
this critical moment, Hamzah and Ali joined Ubaidah. Together they fought Utbah
until he died under the ground.
The end of the battle, which was won by the
messenger of the Messenger of Allah, made the Muslims simultaneously chant
takbir with a loud voice like lightning.
They immediately advanced simultaneously to
attack the Quraysh troops who were still stunned because they had lost three of
their heroes. A great war broke out between the two sides.
Hamza bin Abdul Muttalib is the hero of
this great war. Armed with a sharp sword that flashed, he rushed into the
middle of the army and hit anyone in front of him. On one occasion he saw
Thaimah bin Udai bin Naufal. Without saying much, he immediately slashed his
sword right at the enemy’s neck. So that Thaimah’s neck was severed and she
fell to the ground.
The victims fell both dead and injured.
Most of them are from the polytheists. Some of the polytheists who surrendered
were also taken prisoner. The Muslims have worked hand in hand to destroy the
symbols of disbelief, polytheism and misguidance.
Hamzah, Ziad bin Harithah bin Abu Sufyan,
Ali, and Thabit bin Al-Jada’ also attacked Zam’ah bin Al-Aswad bin Al-Muttalib
bin Asad together until the enemy was killed. Sa’ad bin abi waqash joined
Hamzah’s side. The two of them united to kill Nabih bin al-Hajjaj bin Amir bin
Bani Saham.
From there it began to appear that the
victory of the Muslims was in sight. The ranks of the Quraysh had started to
leave the battlefield after seeing that many of their heroes had died at the
swords of the Muslims. Among the remaining Quraysh masters is ‘Aidzbin al-Saib
bin Uwaumir. He fought the Muslims alone. This condition is not surprising
because he is famous for his strength and might. The movements are fast and
powerful. Because no one can match Hamzah to serve him. Hamzah managed to
injure and restrain him, not to the point of killing.
When the war was over, it was seen that the
dust was flying in the wind due to the pounding of the Quraysh’s horses who ran
helter-skelter from the battlefield.
The Muslims gathered all the flocks after
tying them with ropes. Hamzah gallantly walked in the midst of the ranks of the
Muslims with his chest decorated with majesty.
Thus the victory was won by the Muslims
with the permission of Allah swt. This is thanks to the direction of the
Messenger of Allah. The will, determination, and full confidence of the Muslims
also cannot be ignored. Troops holding the banner of Islam returned to the city
of Medina with prisoners and the spoils of war.
Since then the Muslims began to stick the
pillars of their religion and work together to uphold their country in the city
of Medina. With the hope, from this city of Medina there will be a voice that
glorifies God, the creator. Also a call to destroy injustice on this earth.
