The Battle of Badr was the first major battle between the Muslims and the Quraysh of Mecca. It took place in 624 CE (2 AH) near the wells of Badr, about 130 kilometers from Madinah.

The Muslim army, led by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), consisted of around 313 men, while the Quraysh army had about 1,000 soldiers. Despite being outnumbered and having limited equipment, the Muslims won the battle.

The Battle of Badr became a very important event in Islamic history because it strengthened the position of the Muslims in Madinah and increased their confidence. Muslims believe that their victory was a sign of Allah’s help and support.
