Surah Al-Fath — Ayah 1 (48:1)
إِنَّا فَتَحۡنَا لَكَ فَتۡحٗا مُّبِينٗا ١
English translation (Saheeh International)
Indeed, We have given you, [O Muḥammad], a clear conquest1
- - Ibn Masʿūd said, "You [people] consider the conquest to be that of Makkah, but we consider it to be the Treaty of al-Ḥudaybiyyah." Al-Bukhārī reported a similar quotation from al-Barā’ bin ʿĀzib. Although initially regarded by the companions as a setback, the treaty, in effect, served to promote the spread of Islām, which led to the conquest of Makkah two years later.
Brief commentary
I have given you, O Messenger, a clear victory by the Treaty of Hudaibiyya.
