In this lesson of Surah Al-Anfāl, verses 26-32, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf explains that Allāh عَزَّوَجَلَّ reminds the believers of their past weakness and His blessings in transforming them into a strong and victorious community. Initially few, oppressed, and fearing persecution, they were granted strength, sustenance, and refuge in Al-Madīnah through His mercy. The verses emphasise the prohibition of betrayal illustrated by the story of Ḥāṭib bin Abī Baltaʿah, who was forgiven for his mistake due to his service in the Battle of Badr.
The passage also recounts the Quraysh’s failed plots to harm the Prophet ﷺ. Despite their arrogance and empty claims to rival the Qurʾān, they repeatedly failed to produce anything like it. Their stubbornness is highlighted in their demand for divine punishment instead of guidance, reflecting their ignorance and defiance. These verses affirm Allāh’s support for the believers, His protection of the Prophet ﷺ and the folly of those who reject His guidance.
