A year after this an army of 3,000 strong marched out of Makkah to invade Al-Madinah and a battle took place at the foot of Mount Uhud. This incitement by the Jews added fuel to the fire which was burning in the hearts of the Quraish and they began to make preparations to avenge the defeat they had suffered at Bad.Therefore his Companions slept in their armours during that period and kept watch at night to guard against any sudden attack, and whenever the Holy Prophet happened to be out of sight even for a short while, they would at once set out in search of him. The magnitude of the peril might be judged from the fact that even the life of the Holy Prophet himself was always in danger. At last when their mischievous actions and breaches of treaties became unbearable, the Holy Prophet attacked the Bani-Qainu-qa'a, the most mischievous of all the other Jewish clans who had conspired with the hypocrites of Al-Madinah and the idolatrous Arab clans to encircle the Believers on all sides. Thus those Jewish clans set aside their centuries-old friendly and neighbourly relations with the people of Al-Madinah.
After the Battle of Badr, they openly began to incite the Quraish and other Arab clans to wreak their vengeance on the Muslims. So much so that on the occasion of the Battle of Badr, these people of the Book syrnpathised with the evil aims of the idolaters, in spite of the fact that their fundamental articles of the Faith-Oneness of Allah, Prophethood, Life-after- death-were the same as those of the Muslims.
They were discarding the treaties of alliance they had made with the Holy Prophet after his migration from Makkah.
Above all, they have been warned to guard against those weaknesses which had come to the surface in the Battle of Uhud.

Besides this, they have been taught how to deal with the people of the Book and the hypocrites who were putting different kinds of hindrances in the way of Allah. Instructions have also been given about the reformative work they had to perform. The Muslims have been warned to learn a lesson from the religious and moral degeneration of the former communities and to refrain from treading in their footsteps. The second group, the Muslims, who had been declared to be the best Community in Al-Baqarah and appointed torch-bearers of the Truth and entrusted with the responsibility of reforming the world, have been given additional instructions in continuation of those given in the preceding Surah. They have been told here that Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon him) taught the same right way of life that had been preached by their own Prophets that it alone was the Right Way, the way of Allah hence any deviation from it will be wrong even according to their own Scriptures. The message has been extended to the Jews and the Christians in continuation of the invitation in Al-Baqarah, in which they have been admonished for their erroneous beliefs and evil morals and advised to accept, as a remedy, the Truth of the Quran. This Surah has been especially addressed to two groups-the people of the Book (the Jews and the Christians) and the followers of Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon him). Though these discourses were revealed at different periods and on different occasions, they are so inter-linked and so inter-connected in regard to their aim, object and central theme that they make together one continuous whole. 121-200) was revealed after the Battle of Uhud. 64-120) appears to have been revealed immediately after the first one. on the occasion of the visit of the deputation from the Christians of Najran. 1-32) was probably revealed soon after the Battle of Badr. Al-i-Imran, like the names of many other surahs, is merely a name to distinguish it from other surahs and does not imply that the family of Imran has been discussed in it.
