Story behind the battle of Badr and Abu Jahal’s Death

Since 17th Ramadan 8 H, The muslims started to spy on Quraisy to prepare for war and reclaim Mecca. Mohammad brought hundreds of soldiers and dozens of horses, but he didn’t want to be hasty to attack Quraisy. As the highest commander, he asked his troops to stay on the guard.

When both armies were getting closer, thousands of angels was ready to face the enemy. “O Abu Bakar! Glad tidings are there for you. Allah’s victory has approached. By Allah I can see Jibril on his mare in the thick of a sandstorm,” said Mohammad as quoted in the book of The Great Story of Mohammad.
The angles blew dust on Quraisy and they become a mess. Moreover, the angels invisibly cut Quraisy’s  hands and fingers.

Two teenagers showed up in the war. They were Muawwadz and Muadz. Who almost killed Abu Jahal. Both of them had never actually met Abu Jahal before, but they hated him because they heard many times that Abu Jahal always hurted Mohammad

“Both of them stood in front of Abu Jahal. One of them slashed Abu Jahal head while the other stabled his sword to Abu Jahal’s stomach,”.

But at the time Abu Jahal was still alive, then Abdullah ibn Mas’ud who then conformed his death by beheading him. After knew that Mohammad said, “ This is Pharaoh of the muslims,”

After the battle, on 20 Ramadan, Mohammad gave order to destroy the idols and the Bilal did azan. Mecca became holy city again.
