On 13 March 624, the arid sands of western Arabia bore witness to the Battle of Badr, a momentous clash that cemented the nascent Muslim community's resilience against overwhelming odds.
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), leading a contingent of just over 300 warriors, confronted the well-equipped Meccan army, thrice their number.
Against expectations, the Muslim forces, fortified by unshakable faith and strategic acumen, secured a resounding victory, slaying key Quraysh leaders and shifting the tide of power in their favour.
This seminal triumph not only emboldened the followers of Islam but also signified a divine endorsement of the prophet's leadership, forever altering the course of Arabian history.
