Companions" was performing the Ṭawaf of the Holy Ka'bah. Accordingly, in the sixth year of Hijrah, the Holy Prophet" announced his intention to perform ‘Umrah. The Muslims were happy and enthusiastic to go to Mecca to perform 'Umrah. The Holy Prophet left for Mecca with 1,400 of his. Companions. They were strictly told not to carry any kind of weapons except their swords as they were going for 'Umrah. The Quraish of Mecca did not want the Muslims to enter Mecca. They decided to stop the. Muslims from entering Mecca with the use of force. Their top generals,. Khālid bin Walīd and ‘Ikrimah had prepared their army and were ready to stop the Holy Prophet" and his Companions" from entering Mecca. The. Muslim caravan continued to travel towards Mecca. When the Muslims reached a place called Hudaibiyyah, they stopped to determine the mood and intentions of the Meccans. Soon they found out that Meccans were ready to fight to stop them from entering Mecca. . Envoys were sent by each side to the other side. Muslim envoys made it crystal clear to the Quraish that they have come to perform 'Umrah. However, the Quraish mistreated the Muslim envoy and threatened to attack the Muslims. They were in no mood to allow the. Muslims to enter Mecca even for 'Umrah. They made it a matter of pride for themselves while the Muslims considered the refusal to enter Mecca by the Quraish humiliation. The Muslims became testy as they thought they could teach a lesson to the Quraish. However, they were prohibited to enter. Mecca with force, by the Holy Prophet", and they were obedient to the. Holy Prophet. 162
