The truce of Hudaibiya turned out to be a complete triumph for Islaam.
The numbers of Muslims increased by leaps and bounds. Rasulullah
thought that it was the opportune moment to spread the 'Message of Allah'
far and wide, including the Kings around Arabia. Rasulullah
addressed his companions as followers: 'Now the time has arrived that you
should spread the Message of Truth'. Rasulullah
selected some intelligent Sahaba, and entrusted them with written invitations
to Arab rulers and neighboring Kings. He sent envoys to the Emperor of
Rome, the Qaysar of Persia, the Aziz of Egypt, the Negus of Abyssinia and
the Arab chiefs, inviting them to embrace Islaam.
Hazrat Abdullah bin Huzaifa (R.A.) took a letter of invitation to the
Persian Court. The Qaysar was enraged and tore the letter into pieces.
Rasulullah
suprised the Sahaba by telling them that the Qaysar was dead. The Qaysar's
son had assassinated him that night .
Rasulullah
also sent a letter to the Arab Chiefs inviting them to worship one 'ALLAH.
The epistles that were sent to the various kings in the year 7 A.H. show
that Rasulullah
was an Apostle of Allah for the whole of mankind and he, though surrounded
with an unstable situation, believed that Islaam would prevail and its
light would illuminate the world.
