HISTORY AND IMPORTANCE OF QUR'AN


Qur'an has 30 Paras, it is further divided into 4 parts, like quarter, half, two third and
full. It has 558 Ruku. It has 114 Surah, 6349 Ayats including Bismillah at the start of
Surah; numbers of Makki Surah are 86 while Madani are 28. The first revelation is first

has created) in the cave of Hira. The last Ayat “Al yoma Akmaltu lakum deenukum wa
atmamtu alaikum naemati wa razeetu lakumul Islama deena, (today We have

Qur'an is Surah Bagra having 286 Ayats, and the shortest Surah is Surah e Kausar having

QUR'AN IN LEGAL THINKING


Qur'an deals in basic principles of Islam. All basic commandments concerning human
beings and universe are dealt with Qur'an. Therefore no legal system without
injunctions of Qur'an is possible. Allah says, "Qur'an is the book of Allah in which there
are Awamir (commands) and nawahi.”
SUNNAH IN LEGAL SYSTEM: Sunnah of Prophet deals with every explanation to the
commands of Allah. Without Sunnah we cannot make any law in Islam, even though that
in worship, social, economic, criminal or political law. Qur'an says, "Obey Allah and obey
Messenger." "Prophet does not say of his own accord until and unless a revelation came
to him." (Qur'an)
IJMA IN LEGAL THINKING: Ij ma is a consensus of opinion carried out by the companions
of Prophet SAW, Jurists of the time and general public at large on the question of law.
Qur’an says, "Obey Allah and Obey Messenger and those who have authority among
you." "And make counsel among yourselves." (Qur'an).
There are ready references for us during the life of Prophet SAW, like battle of Uhad,
Battle of Trench. During the Caliphat of Abu Bar Siddique RA, the compilation of Qur'an,
Umar Farooq RA congregation of Trawih, and two Azans during the period of Uthman RA.

Ijma is Qaoli, Faeli, and Sakuti as well. It is also an Azimmah and Rukhsa in its nature. It
can be abrogated only by the same class of people who carried out.

QIYAS IN LEGAL THINKING: It is analogical deduction of Qur'an, Sunnah and Ijma.


Qur'an says, "So take lesson 0 you have eyes." A famous Hadith of Mua'z bin Jabal RA is
relevant reference in this context, when he replied to Prophet SAW, "I will develop my
personal opinion in case of any solution not found in Qur'an and Sunnah." (Hadith)
There are four pillars of Qiyas, " As1 (Root), Far (Branch), Illat (Cause), Hokm (Rule).
There are two famous Qiyas carried out, one for intoxication, and second for Tobacco
use, beetle leaf, and snuff etc.

LIFE IN MAKKAH
CONDITION OF ARABIA BEFORE BIRTH OF PROPHET SAW SOCIAL CONDITION: There

ECONOMIC CONDITION: Arab was consisted upon desert/uncultivated land. Trade was
their main economic.
RELIGIOUS CONDITION: There were multiple religions in Arabia; a common among
them was idol worshipping.
POLITICAL CONDITION: There was a tribal system, therefore no proper government

their Assembly.

CONQUEST OF MAKKAH : Allah says in Qur'an, "Say the Truth has prevailed and
falsehood has vanished, he falsehood was destined to vanish indeed."
A Banu Bakr the allied tribe of Quraish attacked Banu Khuzah the allied tribe of Muslims
with their help and killed 23 men and burnt their belongings; thus violated the treaty of
Hudaibiya which became cause of conquest of Makkah. The Prophet sent Hazrat Zamra
RA as an ambassador to put forth three conditions to pagans of Makkah. [1] Pay blood
money to Khuzah [2] Cnacel your alliance with Banu Bakr [3] Dissolve the treaty of
Hudaibiya. The pagans of Makkah accepted the Dissolution of Treat y. After return of
Hazrat Zamra RA they felt the gravity of situation and gent Abu Sufiyan towards
Madinah but it was of no use. The Prophet moved from Madinah along with his
10000/12000 followers on 10th Ramadan 8AH towards Makkah. They camped at Marr
uz Zuhran near Makkah and lit fire throughout the whole valley. Abu Sufiyan along with
Hakim bin Huzam and Budail bin Warqa was on spy mission, he was captured and
brought to Prophet SAW. Early in the morning he accepted Islam and his house was
granted the status of Dar ul Amn. The Prophet distributed his army in 4 parts under
Khalid bin Waleed, (from North) Abu Ubaida bin Jarrah for immigrants (from North
West) Hazrat Zubair bin Awam (from South), Sa'ad bin Abada for Ansa'ar (from West)
and central Part under self (Prophet SAW). Hazrat Khalid bin Waleed had encountered
with Banu Bakr and his contingent kiled 23 and from Muslim side there were two
martyred only. The Prophet SAW entered Makkah with head down declaring the day as
"YOM ALMARHAMA." The conquest of Makkah was made on 20th of Ramadan 8AH. The
Ka'bah was cleared from 360 idols and their La'at, Mamat, Uzza and Hobel were
destroyed. Makkans were granted full amnesty, even the staunch enemies like Hinda,
Hahashi bin Harb also forgiven. He stayed in Makkah for 15/21 days, and before leaving
he appointed Atab bin said 21 years old young man as Wali (Governor) of Makkah.

BATTLE OF HUNAIN
Allah says in Qur'an "Allah helped you out in many battlefields and the on the day of
Hunain too, when you became proud of your majority, which did not worked for you."
The area of Hawazan tribe named after a well Hunain was 14/15 Arabic miles away
from Makkah.
The place where the fight took place is called AUTAS, therefore it is also called a battle
of Autas. Hawazan and Quraish had been in regular fight among themselves for long,
Harab ul Fijjar is the ready reference to this context. Even though the Makkans
submitted to Prophet but Hawazan of Hunain and Banu Saqeef of Ta'if took a different
route to fight Muslims. The Hawazan leader Malik bin Auf and Banu Saqeef leader
Kanana bin Abd Yalail brought 20000 forces along with their children, females and all
cattle to 'the battlefield so that they may fight wholeheartedly. When Prophet reached in
the valley with his 10000-12000/12000-14000 followers to attack them they hurled
stones and arrows from both sides of the valley and thus created panic. Due to which all
deserted the Prophet SAW except 50/500 companions. On recalling by Prophet SAW
they rejoined and attacked Hawazans and defeated them. Qur'an says, "Allah sent 5000

angels to help Muslims on that day." The Prophet SAW took handful of sand and threw
towards enemy, for which Allah says in Qur'an, "The sand which you threw was not
thrown by you it was actually thrown by Allah Himself." Their leader Malik bin Auf fled
away from the battlefield for Ta'if along with thousands others and 6000 brought as
captives. Hazrat Sheema RA the foster sister of Prophet SAW was also among them, who
was released afterwards. A huge booty of war was earned by Muslims including camels
24000, goats 40000, and 4000 auqia gold and silver. The loss of Muslims in Hunain was
19 and 1300 enemies were killed.
SEIGE OF TA'IF: During the month of Shawal 8 AH Prophet SAW moved from Hunain
towards TA'if. The meaning of Ta'if is walled city. When they knew about the
approaching of Muslim forces they closed all gates of city and sit in there forte. The
Prophet dispatched 1000 men under Khalid bin Waleed to take siege of the forte. For
long 20/30 days siege it did not become fruitful, so by the will of Allah, the Prophet
lifted the siege and came back. In Ta'if 12 believers were martyred. And the enemy loss
was 23. The Prophet SAW came back to Jaerana, he distributed the booty of war. Malik
bin Auf came to accept Islam, the Prophet released 6000 captives without ransom. The

GHAZWA E TABUK 9 AH : Allah says in Qur'an, "Go to fight in the way of Allah, even
though you are rich or poor, by yourself and wealth; it is better for you if you know."
The Prophet SAW learnt about the preparations of attack on Madinah by Heraclius, so
he decided to attack first. Tabuk is the name of place, situated some 700/900 miles
away from Madinah towards Syria. It was the last Ghazwa of Prophet SAW.
