54:45 “Soon that united force shall surely be routed. They will turn (their) backs” is a reference to the Battle of the Confederates. (cf. 33:9). United forces of Arab tribes, joined with some Jewish tribes, attacked Muslims in Madînah. The verse contains a great prophecy when one considers the time of its revelation. These words were revealed in Makkah, years before the Holy Prophets (pbuh) migration to Madînah and years before his victory over the army of the Confederates (see 33:9 onwards). This was the period when he still had only very few followers. The Holy Prophet (pbuh) came out facing the battlefield, reciting this verse. This is also a reference to the prophecies of the Holy Qur’ân regarding other victories of the Muslims. Verses 38:11 and 54:45 were both revealed before Hijrah in the earlier days, when the opponents of Muslims boasted over their unity.
