Suhail (of the Mushriqeen ) said...

Suhail (of the Mushriqeen ) said, ‘I don’t know what the Beneficent, the Merciful is, we do not say that, write like us and say ‘By Your -azwj Name, our Allah -azwj ’. He -saww said; ‘And write– This has been agreed upon by the Rasool-Allah -saww and Suhail Bin Amro’. But Suhail said, ‘What are we fighting you -saww for, O Muhammad -saww ? We do not believe you to be the Rasool-Allah -saww ’ So he -saww said; ‘I -saww am the Rasool of Allah -azwj and I -saww am Muhammad bin Abd Allah -saww ’.

The Muslims said: ‘You -saww are Rasool-Allah -saww ’ but Suhail said, ‘Write Muhammad Bin Abd Allah -saww ’ The agreement stated that ‘If one of us (the Mushriqeen of Makkah) goes to you, he must be returned back to us and the Rasool-Allah -saww must not keep him (even if he becomes a Muslim). But if one of you (one of the Rasool-Allah -saww ’s people) comes to us, he will not be returned back to you’.

The Rasool-Allah -saww was patient and accepted this, but added; ‘However, they should be allowed to worship Allah -azwj among you openly, not in secret, and be allowed to exchange gifts between Medina to Makkah. [5] As part of the treaty, they could not perform a pilgrimage that year but could return next year for three days and perform a pilgrimage.

Objection of Muslims regarding Al- Hudaybiya Umar was with the Rasool-Allah -saww on the day of Al- Hudaybiya and Umar said to him -saww , ‘You -saww are disgracing our religion’ Then he went around saying this to the companions of Rasool-Allah -saww , causing feelings of doubt to arise within them. So the Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘Move away from me -saww , do you desire that I -saww betray my -saww responsibility?

Allah ‑azwj had Made the end result one that favoured the Rasool-Allah -saww , the decision had been good, correct, Guided, honourable and virtuous. [6] The narrator of the Hadith says: ‘When we returned from the expedition of Al- Hudaybiya , (we did not understand the reasons for the treaty) and were in a state of sadness. Then Allah -azwj the Mighty and Majestic Revealed [48:1] Surely, We have Given to you a clear victory .

The Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘This Verse has been Revealed to me -saww and it is more beloved to me -saww than the (whole) world and whatever is in it’. [7] Why did the Rasool-Allah -saww Agree to Sign the Treaty of Hudaybiya ?
