The Battles of the Prophet, authored by Ibn Kathir. Studying the battles of the Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is of great importance. We used to teach the battles of the Prophet (peace be upon him) equally as we used to teach the Surah of the Glorious Quran. In studying the battles of the Prophet (s.a.w) lies the knowledge of this world as well as the Hereafter.
After the migration of the Prophet (peace be upon him) to Madina, the first Quranic verse regarding fighting in the way of Allah was revealed. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) fought the first battle of “Badr” on Friday, 17the Ramadan in the 2nd Hijri.
This book contains a complete authentic history of all battles: Badr and Uhud, Khyber, Conquest of Makkah, the battle of Hunain, which was fought by the Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) against the enemies of Allah and 11 battles which were launched by the Rasulullah (s.a.w), but he did not set out with the fighters. Those battles are Al-Abwa, Al-Aashirah, Ghatfan, Banu Sulaim, Al-Abwat, the first Badr, At-Ta’if, Al-Hudaibiyyah, As-Safra and Tabuk. Moreover, Buraida said that his father narrated that the Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him) undertook seventeen battles and participated in fighting in eight battles that is: Badr, Uhud, Al-Ahzab, Al-Muraisi, Qadid, Khyber, the Conquest of Makkah, and Hunain.
