Event 13 of 15
The Battle of Badr
624 CE (2 AH)
The Battle of Badr was the first big battle in Islam. The Muslims were only 313 fighters against a large army of about 1,000 from Quraysh. The Prophet ﷺ prayed to Allah for a long time, and Allah gave the Muslims a great victory.
The lesson
With faith and trust in Allah, even a small group can overcome great challenges.
In the Quran
"And already had Allah given you victory at [the battle of] Badr while you were few in number"
Ali 'Imran 3:123
