    Treaty with Jews and Non-Muslims in Medina

    The Meccan chiefs were going to kill Prophet Muhammad when he was asleep, so he decided to migrate to Medina. During his migration, the Muslims signed a treaty with the non-muslims and Jews. They signed the treaty because they were often at war, and they were both depleted from resources and warriors to fight wars. They both desperately needed a leader that could bring peace to both communities.

He told them NOT to leave their posts unless they were told to do so. The battle was clearly going to be won by the Muslims, but then the archers became greedy and left the hill to get the spoils of war, and the battle
