The lesson
- He led the Muslims at Badr in 2 AH, where they won though fewer in number; at Uhud in 3 AH, where his uncle Hamza was martyred and he himself was badly wounded; and at the Trench in 5 AH, where Ali killed Amr ibn Abd Wadd (al-Maghazi of al-Waqidi; Tarikh-i Tahlili-yi Islam of Shahidi).
- At Khaybar in 7 AH, after others had failed to take the fortress, he said: Tomorrow I will give this flag to a man in whose hands is the victory, who loves God and His Prophet and whom God and His Prophet love. The next day he called Ali, healed his eyes with his saliva, and gave him the flag (al-Sira al-Nabawiyya of Ibn Hisham; Tarikh-i Payambar-i Islam of Ayati).
- He made the Treaty of Hudaybiyya with Quraysh in 6 AH. When they broke it, he marched on Mecca in Ramadan of 8 AH with ten thousand men; when one commander cried that it was the day of slaughter, he sent Ali to take the flag from him, saying: Today is the day of mercy. He entered Mecca almost without a fight, cleared the idols from the Ka'ba, and told the Quraysh who had fought him for twenty years: I free all of you (al-Sira al-Nabawiyya of Ibn Hisham; Tarikh-i Tahlili-yi Islam of Shahidi).
