“The lesson which the Muslims should learn from the battle of Badr, is to have faith and confidence in Allah (swt) and in themselves, and be always sure that Allah will let victory be on the side of the believers:

وَلَقَد نَصَرَكُمُ اللَّهُ بِبَدرٍ وَأَنتُم أَذِلَّةٌ ۖ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُم تَشكُرونَ

Allah had already given you victory at Badr when you were helpless” (Qur’an 3:123)

 

كَم مِّن فِئَةٍ قَلِيلَةٍ غَلَبَتْ فِئَةً كَثِيرَةً بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ

How many small groups have overcome large groups by the will of Allah. Allah is with those who remain patient” (Qur’an 2:249)

As we face several arrogant forces in our age, we should keep these powerful lessons of Badr in mind.

وَلَيَنصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزِيزٌ

Allah will certainly aid those who defend His(cause); for verily Allah is full of Strength, exalted in Might, (able) to able to enforce His Will. (Qur’an 22:40)”

-Sayyed Muhammad Hussain Fadlallah

Such an important occasion requires us to learn about it and implement the priceless lessons we can take from it. We encourage you to read about the Battle of Badr to understand the context and how the faithful Muslims were to achieve victory by Allah’s will. If we follow what they did, we will be able to achieve many victories InshaAllah.
