Great Conquers of Islam: A Research Analysis of Military and Political Strategies of the Leadership in the light of Seerath of the Holy Prophet PBUH
Abstract
he military and political strategies are evolved with the passage of times and
the development of science and technology. But the modern and highly
advanced strategies of wars or defense and security are still lacking the spirit,
techniques, principles, balanced and justified ways of Islamic wars happened
over 1400 years back.
With no civilian causality and damages to properties of common people, the
objectives successfully gained by the Islamic group led by Prophet Muhammad
(PBUH) and their success stories have no parallel and comparison in the
history of human beings because of the true Islamic spirit and principled
guidance and leadership of the Prophet(PBUH).
The human casualties in Islamic wars are such a small in numbers that could
be counted in few hundreds as compared to millions of human losses in
Western wars. Besides the land and areas conquered by the Islamic group
within short period of 10 years was over 3 million square kilometers with the
average of 900 kilometers a day. During the entire decade even a couple of
enemies of the group were not killed in an average of a month while the total
recorded causalities of 200 to 300 Muslims were such negligible numbers that
the history could not present its example proving that the military and political
strategy of Islam framed and guided by the Prophet (PBUH) were the best in
the world at every level.
Islam is basically a religion of peace and it does not allow shedding of blood
of innocent people at any cost. However sometimes the Muslims were
compelled to unleash their swords against some tyrants in self defence and
they won the battle fought so far by them. The reason was the sanity and divine
capability of the leadership of the time, the Prophet (PBUH).
