The research details the tactics and actions of both sides during the conflict and explores how figures like Osama bin Laden and Sayyid Qutb have leveraged the battle's legacy to inspire their followers. Ultimately, it argues that Badr established Muhammad's legitimacy and provided a framework for future radical ideologies.
