The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah (Sulah Hudaibiya) was a pivotal peace agreement signed in 628 CE (6th year of Hijrah) between the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), representing the Muslims of Medina, and the Quraysh tribe of Makkah. The treaty was named after the location where it was negotiated, Hudaybiyyah, situated just outside Makkah. The event took place when the Prophet, along with approximately 1,400 of his companions, embarked on a peaceful journey to perform Umrah (the minor pilgrimage) at the Kaaba. Despite their peaceful intentions, the Quraysh tribe opposed their entry into Makkah. After negotiations, both parties agreed to the terms of the treaty, which included a ten-year truce and allowed Muslims to return the following year for Umrah without conflict. Another term stipulated that any Makkans who converted to Islam and fled to Medina would be returned to Makkah, while anyone who left Medina to rejoin the Quraysh would not be sent back.
