1. Numbers don't mean anything.
In this battle, an army of only 313 men defeated an army of 1000 well-equipped and heavily armed soldiers.
As Allah states:
"How often a small force has overcome
a large force by the permission of Allah"
(Quran 2:249)
2. Victory is only from Allah.
After winning the Battle, Allah reminded
the believers that it was only through His will, they
were able to achieve victory.
(Quran 3:126)
3. Never undermine your prayers.
Prior to the Battle, the Prophet supplicated:
"Oh Lord, if we are defeated. You will
no longer be worshiped on Earth".
(Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Not only was his prayer answered, but the victory ensured the survival of Islam until our present day.
4. The power of Allah is endless.
Allah sent down thousands of
Angels in succession to assist the Muslim
army and ensure their victory in this Battle.
(Quran 3:125)
Allah also transformed a handful
of dust in the Prophet's hand into a giant dust
storm to disperse the enemy.!
(Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
5. Strength is through unity.
A major reason for the success of the Muslims in this Battle was due to their ability to stand firm, steadfast and united.
While the Quraish proved disjointed and frail,
hence they were easily dispersed after being misled by Satan.
(Quran 8:48)
