Surah 48. Al-Fat-h, Ayah 1
| إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُبِينًا |
| Transliteration | : | 'in(na) -naa fatah.naa la- -ka fath.(an) muben(an) |
| Pickthall | : | Lo! We have given thee (O Muhammad) a signal victory, |
| Asad | : | VERILY, [O Muhammad,] We have laid before thee a manifest victory,1 |
| Malik | : | O Prophet, Surely We have granted you a manifest victory in the shape of a Treaty concluded at Hudeybiyah, |
| Yusuf Ali | : | Verily We have granted thee a manifest Victory: 4866 |
Note - 1Namely, the moral victory achieved by the Truce of
Hudaybiyyah, which opened the doors to the subsequent
triumph of Islam in Arabia (see introductory note, which
explains many allusions to this historic event found in
the subsequent verses).
|
Note - 4866This is best referred to the Treaty of Hudaibiya, for
which see the Introduction to this Sura. By this Treaty
the Makkan Quraish, after many years of unrelenting
conflict with Islam, at length recognised Islam as (what
they thought) an equal power with themselves. In reality
the door was then opened for the free spread of Islam
throughout Arabia and thence through the world.
