The book’s text
The Muslims got the opportunity to spread Islaam on a large scale once the roads became safe after the Treaty of Hudaybiyya had been signed. That is why the Qur’aan refers to this treaty as a (clear victory). There were, however, still a few people who were prevented from accepting Islaam due to pressure from the Quraish.
The Conquest of Makkah removed this obstacle and the message of the Qur’aan reached every home. The Qur’aan, with its unique miraculous qualities, left a firm impression on the hearts of everyone. Those who could not tolerate the Muslims or Islaam, were now eagerly coming from distant places to ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) to accept Islaam. Willingly and happily, they accepted Islaam and were now prepared to even sacrifice their lives for Islaam. Most of these delegations came in 9 The number of Muslims increased to such an extent that when Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) performed in 10 A.H. more than one hundred thousand Muslims joined him. The number of those who were unable to perform Haj, was more than one hundred thousand.
