Write a short essay in response to the following instructions. Your essay should be two paragraphs long with complete sentences and correct spelling. The first paragraph should explain the build-up to the war, and the second should offer a personal evaluation of the warfare. I am grading you on your understanding of the situation, not which side of the issue you are taking. So the more in-depth your answer, the more points you will receive. Finally, make sure you write your response in your own words. If you simply copy from the powerpoint, you will only receive partial credit.
question
Explain in your own words what the build-up was to the warfare between the Meccans and the Muslims. Why did they go to war? Who started the fighting? Who were the victims and who were the perpetrators? Then, in your own opinion, evaluate whether you think this warfare was legitimately justified.
