Al-Fatah (The Victory)

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Our Prophet (PBH), through the very first revelation of the Quran, was ordered:
“Recite in the name of your Fosterer…” (Chapter 96: Verse 1) and the name of his and our Fosterer is Allah (SWT), as is evident from the very first verse of the first chapter of the Quran:
“Praise is due only for Allah (SWT), the Fosterer of the worlds”. (Chapter 1: Verse 1)
In view of this order of Allah (SWT), we should recite/read before starting the recitation or reading of the Holy Quran which is a part of the Quran, occurring at the beginning of 113 out of 114 chapters of the Quran and also as part of Chapter 27: Verse 30 of the Quran. Through Chapter 16: Verse 98, Allah Taala further orders:
“So when you recite/read the Quran, seek the protection of Allah from the accursed devil”.
This means that we are required to pray; (Aoozu Billahi min Ash shaitaanir Rajeem) meaning: “I seek the protection of Allah from the accursed devil”, even before reciting or reading: (Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem)

Shuru Allah ke naam se jo hum per taras kha ker faida pahunchane wala hai

He it is Who sent down tranquility into the hearts of the believers that they may (thereby receive more) belief added to their belief, and Allah’s are the forces of the skies and the earth and Allah is Knowing, Wise,

Those who swear allegiance to you {1} certainly swear allegiance only to Allah, the hand of Allah is above their hands. So whoever breaks (the agreement, the loss of) his breaking (it) is only on his own soul and whoever fulfils the agreement which he has made with Allah, then He will give him a great reward. (R 1)

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُبَايِعُونَكَ إِنَّمَا يُبَايِعُونَ اللَّهَ يَدُ اللَّهِ فَوْقَ أَيْدِيهِمْ ۚ فَمَنْ نَكَثَ فَإِنَّمَا يَنْكُثُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ ۖ وَمَنْ أَوْفَىٰ بِمَا عَاهَدَ عَلَيْهُ اللَّهَ فَسَيُؤْتِيهِ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا

Treaty of Hudaibiya and the Allegiance (H. 6):

Along with 1400 muslims, Prophet Muhammed (PBH) started from Madina with the intention of visiting Kaaba at Makkah for Umrah. He camped at Hudaibiya from where he sent word to the Makkans through various people including Hazrath Osman that he had come only for Umrah. The delay in Hazrath Osman’s return and a rumour that be was killed, made the muslims swear an allegiance to Prophet Muhammed (PBH) (under a tree) that they would defend him at all costs and die fighting at his side. But later Hazrath Osman returned safe. The Meccans refused permission but an agreement was made that the Muslims would be allowed to perform Umrah, the following year. Many other things were also agreed upon. This treaty proved to be a great victory because war had become a barrier between muslims and non muslims, now both parties met freely which made propagation of Islam easier.

Those of the desert Arabs who were left behind will say to you, “”Our wealth and our people kept us occupied, so seek protective forgiveness for us.”” They say with their tongues that which is not in their hearts.

No, you expected that the messenger of Allah and the believers will never return to their people, and that was made fair seeming to your hearts, and you expected an evil expectation and you are a people who are lost.
