Why did the Arabs fight the Prophet (saw) so much?

Question

It hurts me how much the Arabs fought my Prophet (saw)

They persecuted him and the Muslims so much they had to find refuge amonsgt the civilized Ajam (Ethiopia)

Islam spread increadibly rapidly around the globe -it reached indonesia with just 8 Muslims!!!. Yet even with the Prophet (saw) it took 23 years and their military defeat for them to accept- why were they so stubborn

And after the Prophet saw left the dunya Arab tribes became murtadd!!! -unique in Islamic history.

Allah says

ٱلۡأَعۡرَابُ أَشَدُّ ڪُفۡرً۬ا وَنِفَاقً۬ا وَأَجۡدَرُ أَلَّا يَعۡلَمُواْ حُدُودَ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِۦ‌ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ۬ (٩٧)

The wandering Arabs are more hard in disbelief and hypocrisy, and more likely to be ignorant of the limits which Allah hath revealed unto His messenger. And Allah is Knower, Wise. (9:97)

Answer 1

Alhamdolillahe Prophet Muhammed was a Prophet and a Messanger,,but all Arabs are not Prophet and Mesangers..

Allah Allmighty has warned us ,and arabs too, that they should not be among the majority who are Hypocrits and Disbelievers,

@@ arab&broud there fore your argument ,since Prophet was Arab therefore all Arabs must be respected is utter idiotic,,its the same as we should respect wife of Prophet Lot ,Respect the disbeliever son of Prophet Noah,respect the Father of Prophet Ibraheem ...arent you implying the same ?

arabs are not prophets nor mesangers,so stop this idolatory..

read the following plz

[49:13] O people, we created you from the same male and female, and rendered you distinct peoples and tribes, that you may recognize one another. The best among you in the sight of GOD is the most righteous. GOD is Omniscient, Cognizant.

@ abul harrith.. Araab means plural of arab and not bedouins as distorted by arab translators

9:90 وجاء المعذرون من الاعراب ليوذن لهم وقعد الذين كذبوا الله ورسوله سيصيب الذين كفروا منهم عذاب اليم

9:90 Those who made excuses from among the Arabs came to get permission. Thus, those who denied God and His messenger stayed behind. Those who rejected from them will be inflicted with a painful retribution.

9:97 الاعراب اشد كفرا ونفاقا واجدر الا يعلموا حدود ما انزل الله على رسوله والله عليم حكيم

9:97 The Arabs are the worst in rejection and hypocrisy, and more likely not to know the limits of what God has sent down upon His messenger. God is Knower, Wise.

9:98 ومن الاعراب من يتخذ ما ينفق مغرما ويتربص بكم الدوائر عليهم دائرة السوء والله سميع عليم

9:98 From the Arabs are some who look upon what they spend as a fine, and wait for disasters to befall you. They will have the evil disasters, and God is Hearer, Knowledgeable.

9:99 ومن الاعراب من يومن بالله واليوم الءاخر ويتخذ ما ينفق قربت عند الله وصلوت الرسول الا انها قربة لهم سيدخلهم

الله فى رحمته ان الله غفور رحيم

9:99 From the Arabs there is he who acknowledges God and the Last day, and considers his spending as a means towards God, and the support of the messenger. It indeed makes them closer. God will admit them in His mercy; God is Forgiving, Compassionate.

9:101 وممن حولكم من الاعراب منفقون ومن اهل المدينة مردوا على النفاق لا تعلمهم نحن نعلمهم سنعذبهم مرتين ثم يردون

الى عذاب عظيم

9:101 Among the Arabs around you are hypocrites, as well as from the city people; they are audacious in hypocrisy. You do not know them, but We know them. We will punish them twice, then they will be returned to a great punishment.

9:120 ما كان لاهل المدينة ومن حولهم من الاعراب ان يتخلفوا عن رسول الله ولا يرغبوا بانفسهم عن نفسه ذلك بانهم لا يصيبهم ظما ولا نصب ولا مخمصة فى سبيل الله ولا يطون موطئا يغيظ الكفار ولا ينالون من عدو نيلا الا كتب لهم به عمل صلح ان الله لا يضيع اجر المحسنين

9:120 It is not advisable for the city dwellers and those around them of the Arabs that they should lag behind after God's messenger, nor should they yearn for themselves above him. That is because any thirst, fatigue, or hunger that afflicts them in the cause of God, or any step that they take which will annoy the ingrates, or any gain they have over any enemy; it will be recorded as a good deed for them. God does not waste the reward of the good doers.

48:16 قل للمخلفين من الاعراب ستدعون الى قوم اولى باس شديد تقتلونهم او يسلمون فان تطيعوا يوتكم الله اجرا حسنا وان تتولوا كما توليتم من قبل يعذبكم عذابا اليما

48:16 Say to those Arabs who lagged behind: "You will be called on to fight a people who are very powerful in warfare, unless they peacefully surrender. Then if you obey, God will grant you a good reward, but if you turn away as you turned away before, He will punish you with a painful retribution."

49:14 قالت الاعراب ءامنا قل لم تومنوا ولكن قولوا اسلمنا ولما يدخل الايمن فى قلوبكم وان تطيعوا الله ورسوله لا يلتكم من اعملكم شيا ان الله غفور رحيم

49:14 The Arabs said, "We acknowledge." Say, "You have not acknowledged; but you should say, 'We have peacefully surrendered', for acknowledgement has not yet entered into your hearts." If you obey God and His messenger, He will not put any of your works to waste. God is Forgiver, Compassionate.

clearly from the above verses Araab means PLURAL of ARAB and not wondering arab  or bedouins or desert people

and also read Surah 47 which is addressed to arabs too

if your contention is 9:101 which says City Dwellers then ,even city dwellers are hypocrits too..read it,,do not distort the words of Allah Allmighty,and dont make your race your nationality your god,

Prophet Ibraheem,Daud,Suleiman were jewish ? how could you say this ?

[2:130] Who would forsake the religion of Abraham, except one who fools his own soul? We have chosen him in this world, and in the Hereafter he will be with the righteous.

[2:131] When his Lord said to him, "Submit," he said, "I submit to the Lord of the universe."

[2:132] Moreover, Abraham exhorted his children to do the same, and so did Jacob: "O my children, GOD has pointed out the religion for you; do not die except as submitters."

[2:133] Had you witnessed Jacob on his death bed; he said to his children, "What will you worship after I die?" They said, "We will worship your god; the god of your fathers Abraham, Ismail, and Isaac; the one god. To Him we are submitters."

Answer 2

Your prophet is Arab and you HATE Arabs.

wow..

May Allah help you.

EDIT: I don't hate jews. I hate the Israeli government and what they are doing to muslims and Palestinians.

What the heck does that have to do with your question anyway?

You call us Arabs Sand N*ggers, what does that say about prophet Mohammed? Astaghferullah..

I hope you know that you are a big disgrace to Muslims, You shouldn't even consider yourself muslim, you have too much hate in you.

EDIT: "im talking about the Arabs of today"

Umm...No you aren't. lol
