The Battle of Badr was the first war that the Muslim ever encountered. There were only 300 Muslims, and they had no real weapons; the riders were only three, and others simply walked on foot.
The army of the disbelievers was strong. They had 1,000 true warriors, among which there were recreation groups that were for entertaining and singing. They were affirmed that the battle was already won.
Jihad，Holy war, there is no holy war. Allah didn’t create me and create other, and ask me to kill other. It’s not kill someone who doesn’t want to believe.
Chapter 2, No force in religion. The right way is clear and the wrong way is clear. The one who choose the right way is the winner.
Then why do I attack you if you don’t want to believe in Allah? It’s not my business. My business is to introduce Allah to you in the right way, as a good representer.
The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) start to spread Islam in Makkah. Then he moved from Makkah, he immigrate from Makkah to Medina. This immigration was because all the Muslims in Makkah, they were hurt by those disbelievers.
For ten years, the Prophet Muhammad endured the oppression from the disbelievers in Mecca before he migrated to Medina. When he was there, he still didn’t obtain the permission from Allah to fight the disbelievers back.
Disbelievers in Mecca continued to oppress the Muslim. They plundered the Muslim, leaving no properties for them when they left.
In fact, many Muslims were strong enough, but they didn’t obtain the permission to fight back.
When you start a war, you must ensure that you can win.
Allah is not only supporting, Allah is also a teacher. Just as parents won’t do the math for their son. Allah wants no more Muslims, but firmer faith.
How contradictions come to be in the Quran? It says that a believer can stand against ten warriors in a battle, but it then says that a Muslim can only fight two.
In the first case, the Muslim is a true believer in Allah. In the second case, that one is weak in his faith.
If there are two times of men on the enemy’s side, you have to fight them **with the precondition where they make the first move. If there are three times of men on their side, you must consider whether you stand a chance, or better to discuss with them.
(The Quran says not all Muslims are allowed to go to war; some of them must stay and learn.)
Chapter 22: In the second year of Muslim’s migration to Medina, the angel Gabriel gave this verse of scriptures:
“If today they are harmed, I shall allow them to fight back.”
Muhammad tell him, I know you are angry for the sake of Allah.But we need to obey the rules.
Muhammad said: “When your brothers and sisters did something wrong, you shall find 70 excuses for them. If you find none, think of something I know not.”
(You must avoid doing something that forces you to apologize. You must avoid errors.)
Chapter 8: Allah promises you that you will win, and you have two choices.
1. Defeat the Sophian camel caravans and take your properties back.
2. Engage in the war with the true army in Mecca.
Allah said: “You Muslims tend to choose easier ones, but I want you to choose the greater.”
Let Allah decide.
Allah, I have no wisdoms. Please make the decision for me.
Allah asked those who believe in Islam in Mecca.
Muhammad was waiting for the answers from the Muslims in Medina.
The leader of Medina responded to Muhammad: “Wherever you are, we shall follow. If you go into the sea, we shall go into it as well. We are good fighters. We have unbending belief. We shall not escape.”
The war began.
Discussion is over everytime. So you must be polite.
Plan: Putting sand in the well water.
Prophet Muhammad Encourage Muslims. He asked Allah before others: “Allah, I now ask You for what You have promised to me...”
Prophet Muhammad: Those who died in the battle and did not turn back to escape shall be in the Heaven!
Prophet Muhammad throw a handful of sand to the enemies. When every foe has a grain of sand in their eyes, they can only rub their own eyes. This enhanced the confidence of the Muslim.
It is also mentioned that Muhammad would not hide himself in the back.
He was the one that was closest to the enemies.
Omar always hid behind Muhammad.
The disbeliever asked Prophet Muhammad(ﷺ): “If I join you now, become a Muslim, and die fighting for you, will I go to the Heaven?”
Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ): “Yes!”
Disbeliever turned his horse immediately, and died in an instance.
Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)：(Laughing)
“He did a small thing but earned a great prize, because death in this life cannot match what it is in the Heaven.”
(We must know that whatever the struggle, everyone dies eventually. Throw this life away.) (A day in the Hell equals to five thousand years in the mortal world.)
The Muslim won.
After this war, there were 70 men got killed among the enemies, and another 70 fell captive, waiting for their random be paid. For those who remained captive, each man shall teach ten Muslims to read, and 90% of them later became Muslims as well.)
14 Muslims became martyrs.
We all in charge and responsible for Islam.
The Islam has the perfect community.
Education by an Islamic mother
1. A mother gave all her money to the mosque, and let her son be lectured in the mosque. Now her son has become a successful imam.
2. A Muslim woman had four children, among whom the oldest was only at the age of 17. All of them went to war, and all of them fell, just like her brothers.
They were all true warriors.
Others told her the fact, but she responded: “Praise Allah, for I have the fortune to be the mother of four martyrs. We shall meet again in the Heaven.”
3. Asma was a blind. Her youngest son was going to a war. Before leaving, she hugged her son, feeling him wearing the armor. She asked him to take it off. She said: “Take it off. It will be easier for you in the battle. It may save your life, but without it, you can die more easily.”
Insha Allah we meet in paradise.
Allah: “Go and spread Islam. I will protect you.” That’s the voice from the Heaven in the war.
Prophet Muhammad was in the tent. Two men were willing to protect him. But Muhammad asked them leave.
For the sake of Allah. Who protect you? Allah. Nobody will hurt you. Allah is the defender for believers. Be a believer. You fight those who fight the Islam.
Chapter 2. Allah will protect you from them.
Allah will fascinate you.
How would you love Allah if you have perfect life here?
How would you love Death if you have enjoy your life?
You put a brick here, and Allah will take it away for you.
Money is not yours. It's Allah's. Allah give you and generously say: “It's yours.”

Be Careful with Military Actions
A good leader deploys military forces to save and not to harm, to salvage and not to create crisis. …Thus it is said:
“Warmongers will be annihilated, but he who fails to prepare for war will face danger.”
《Scroll 47: Zheng Yao Lun - THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT CHINA VOLUME 1.》
The art of war is a matter of life and death. No amount of effort can restore life to men killed in action. Thus, the deployment of war as an option is never an easy decision.
《Scroll 50: Yuan Zi Zheng Shu - THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT CHINA VOLUME 1.》
🌸
1. Weapons are instruments of evil omen; they are not the instruments of a superior person. A superior person uses them only out of necessity. Calmness and repose are what he prizes; victory by force of arms is, to him,
undesirable.
2. To consider the latter desirable would be to delight in the slaughter of men. He who delights in the slaughter of men cannot instil his will in the world.
3. On occasions of festivity, seats on the left are more prestigious.
4. On occasions of mourning, seats on the right are more prestigious. In the army, the commander - in-chief has his place on the right, and the second in command has his place on the left. This signifies that the army adopts the same principle as that of the funeral rites when they go to war.
5. He who has killed multitudes of men should weep for them with the bitterest grief. The victor in battle has his place according to the funeral rites.
《Scroll 34: Lao Zi - THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT CHINA VOLUME 1.》
Barren land with thorn bushes and people living in privation are remnants of an army’s presence.
After a war, bad years will follow.
《Scroll 34: Lao Zi - THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT CHINA VOLUME 1.》
Maneuvering an army of a hundred thousand
soldiers will cost millions of dollars per day. Winning all battles is not necessarily the best strategy. Winning without waging a battle is the best strategy of all.
《Scroll 37: Wei Liao Zi - THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT CHINA VOLUME 1.》
🌸
1. An army raised to rescue people from tyranny is a righteous army. It will win the support of the people.
2. An army raised to defend the territory against invasion is a counteracting army. It will win in the end.
3. An army raised to fight bitterly at the slightest provocation is a wrathful army. It will lose the war.
4. An army raised without discipline will steal and rob people’s belongings. It is a greedy army that will be dislodged.
5. An army raised to believe that it is an army of a superpower state is an arrogant army. It will be annihilated.
6. These five principles are not the doing of any human. They are the way of natural law.
《Scroll 19: Han Shu, Vol. 7 - THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT CHINA VOLUME 1.》
The deployment of military forces is of vital importance to a state as it is a matter that will decide life or death.
The fate of a state lies in the hands of the generals, and so kings in the past placed utmost importance on the selection of generals and commanders.
《Scroll 31: Liu Tao - THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF ANCIENT CHINA VOLUME 1.》
Generals and Soldiers
Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look upon them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death.[14]
