War Force in the Sunnah and the Prophet›s Biography and its Trends in the Present Era

Abstract

This study aims to clarify the concept of force linguistically and terminologically, and its meaning in the Holy Qur’an, and to explain the concept of war force in the Sunnah and the Prophet’s biography, its standard, and the global standard for it in our present era. It shows the miracle of Prophet›s foresight in the interpretation of the war force mentioned in verse (60) of Surat Al –Anfal, concerning throwing, its concept, its virtue and its importance. The study also shows the way to use throwing in the war force in the prophetic approach, the way it is used in wars and battles taking place today in the world and the extent of its approval and its violation of the approach of the Sunnah and the prophetic biography, by partial extrapolation of the Prophetic texts and procedures related to throwing in the war force, its means, goals, and methods of use, describing and analyzing them, linking them to reality, and formulating and presenting them in a precise research, to benefit from it through this study. The research arrives at some findings, the most notable of which are that war force was mentioned in the Qur’anic verse to include all times and places, and throwing was mentioned in the Noble Hadith to include all the means of throwing and its renewable tools. In addition, all war force today has become dependent on throwing, and there is no longer any other means of modern warfare other than throwing, and all war industries in the world today are competing for quality industry, which is the development of military weapons technology, their accuracy, range, and impact; and not to focus on the industry of quantity. Moreover, the throwing, in the Sunnah and the prophetic biography, which achieves the war force and cultivates the awe is the throwing that targets the warrior enemy, its equipment, its supplies and its military barracks only. And the war force that targets innocent people to kill them, targets construction to destroy it, and corrupts public and private interests, is not considered from the perspective of the Prophet’s Sunnah a force of freedom, but rather a force of destruction.
