Chapter 43: The victory of the Romans over the Persians Al-Baihaqee related the story of the Persians and the Byzantines, and the revelation of Allaah’s saying: ‏﴿الُ*ُغ لِبَتِ‏ ‏ُالرُّوم ‏ُ*ُفِ‏ ‏ُأَد ‏َّنَ‏ ‏ُاِّل ‏َر ضِ‏ ‏ُوَه مُمِّنُبَع دُِغَلَبِهِم ‏ُسَيَغ لِب ونَُ*ُفِ‏ ‏ُبِض عُِسِ‏ نِنيَُُۖلِلَُّهُِاِّل ‏َم رُمِنُ‏ قَب لُوَمِنُبَع د ‏ُُۖوَيَو مَئِذ ‏ُيَف رَح ‏ُال م ؤ مِن ونَُ*ُبِنَص رُِاللَّهُُِۖيَنص رُمَنُيَشَاء ‏ُُۖوَه وَُال عَزِيز ‏ُالرَّحِ‏ يم﴾‏ {Alif Laam Meem. The Romans have been defeated. In the nearer land (Syria, Iraaq, Jordan, and Palestine), and they, after their defeat, will be victorious. Within three to nine years. The decision of the matter, before and after (these events) is only with Allaah, (before the defeat of Romans by the Persians, and after, i.e. the defeat of the Persians by the Romans). And on that Day, the believers (i.e. Muslims) will rejoice (at the victory given by Allaah to the Romans against the Persians), With the help of Allaah, He helps whom He wills, and He is the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.} [Surah al-Room (30): 1-5] Narrated Ibn Àbbaas ‏:رضيُاهللُعنهما regarding the saying of Allaah ‏:تعاىل {Alif Laam Meem. The Romans have been defeated. In the nearer land…}. He said: “The idolaters wanted the Persians to be victorious over the Romans because they too were people who worshiped idols, while the Muslims wanted the Romans to be victorious over the Persians because they were people of the Book. This was mentioned to Abu Bakr, so Abu Bakr mentioned that to the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ and he ﷺ said: ❝They will certainly prevail.❞ Abu Bakr mentioned that to them, and they said: ‘Make a wager 324 between us and you; if we win, we shall get such-and-such, and if you win, you shall get such-and-such.’ He made the term five years, but they (the Romans) were not victorious. They mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ and he said: ❝Why did you not make it less (than…)❞ - he (one of the narrators said): I think he ﷺ said: ❝ten? ❞” [Saèed (the sub-narrator) said: “al-Biḍh`” is what is less than ten] He then said: “Afterwards the Romans have been victorious.” 325 324 [TN: Gambling and betting were still not prohibited at that time.] 325 Musnad Aḥmad (2495, 2769), Sunan al-Tirmidhee (2935, 3192, 3193, 3194), al-Ḥaakim in his “al-Mustadrak” (3540), and said: “It is “Ṣaḥeeḥ” as per the condition of the Shaikhain” and al-Dhahabee agreed with him. Al- Tirmidhee and Ibn Jareer also reported this from two additional routes from Ibn Àbbaas. [TN: Shaikh al-Albaanee graded the above Ḥadeeth from Sunan al-Tirmidhee (3193) as “Ṣaḥeeḥ”.

We (Ibn Katheer) have mentioned various routes for this narration in our “Tafseer”, and have mentioned that the one who engaged in the wager with Abu Bakr was Umayyah Ibn Khalaf, and that the bet was for five young ostriches and that it had a time limit. And on the words of the Messenger of Allaah ‏,ﷺ Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq increased the bet. And the victory of the Romans over the Persians was on the day of the battle of Badr, or it was on the day of the truce of Hudaibiyah. And Allaah knows best. In another narration, al-Tirmidhee reported that from Niyaar Ibn Mukram al-Aslamee: “When (the following) was revealed: {Alif Laam Meem. The Romans have been defeated. In the nearer land…} - on the day that these Aayaat were revealed, the Persians had defeated the Romans, and the Muslims had wanted the Romans to be victorious over them because they were the people of the Book. So Allaah said about that: {And on that day, the believers will rejoice - with the help of Allaah. He helps whom He wills, and He is the Almighty, the Most Merciful}. The Quraish wanted the Persians to be victorious since they (Quraish) were not people of the Book, nor did they believe in the Resurrection. So when Allaah revealed these Aayaat, Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq رضيُاهللُعنه went out, proclaiming throughout Makkah: {Alif Laam Meem. The Romans have been defeated. In the nearest land, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious, in Biḍh` years}. Some of the Quraish said: ‘Then this is (a bet) between us and you. Your companion claims that the Romans will defeat the Persians in Biḍh` years, so why not have a bet on that between us and you?’ Abu Bakr said: ‘Yes.’ This was before betting has been forbidden. So Abu Bakr and the idolaters made a bet, and they said to Abu Bakr: ‘What do you think – Biḍh` means something between three and nine years, so let us agree on the middle.’ So they agreed on six years. Then six years passed without the Romans being victorious. The idolaters took what they won in the bet from Abu Bakr. When the seventh year came and the Romans were finally victorious over the Persians, the Muslims rebuked Abu Bakr for agreeing to six years because Allaah تعاىل said: {In Biḍh` years.} After this, many people became Muslims.” [Sunan al-Tirmidhee (3194), and graded as “Ḥasan” by Shaikh al-Albaanee] Ḥadeeth (3191) of Sunan al-Tirmidhee has been graded as “Ḍhaèef” by Shaikh al-Albaanee. See also “al- Ḍhaèefah” (3354) of Shaikh al-Albaanee for the discussion of some the other routes for this narration.] Ilm4all.blogspot Page 241
