# The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah pauses war with Quraysh as a dated truce

Date: 628

## The fact

In 628 CE Muhammad agreed the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah with Quraysh. Later encyclopaedias date the truce. It is a political instrument, not a battle. Muhammad's documented role is: He agreed a ten-year-style truce at Hudaybiyyah. Quraysh signed; some companions objected in the received file.

## Context

Umar's objection is a received companion file. Sharing the treaty with Quraysh signatories is required. Conquest follows a later breach story. The setting of The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah pauses war with Quraysh as a dated truce is the public file around 0628-03-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver [social-cohesion](/drivers/social-cohesion) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.

The attached driver is social-cohesion. The welfare reading used in this dossier is improving. That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself.

Confidence is stated on the impact path, not hidden in adjectives. Do not treat 628 as 630 conquest. Do not treat the truce as Qurayza. Mixed effects of The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah pauses war with Quraysh as a dated truce are separate paths.

Shared responsibility is part of The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah pauses war with Quraysh as a dated truce. Naming Muhammad does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 0628-03-01 to any measured indicator is not treated as zero. Alternative explanations — weather, other armies, later statutes, or independent cultural change — remain live where the sources do not close them.
