Concept:“Ukhuwah” means Islamic brotherhood or fraternity.
In Madinah, the Prophet (SAW) used this brotherhood as a practical way of creating peace and unity.
Explanation:When the Prophet (SAW) reached Madinah, the city was divided by tribal quarrels.
The two major Arab tribes, Aus and Khazraj, had been enemies for a long time.
The Prophet (SAW) therefore initiated ukhuwah to bind hearts together under Islam.
He paired the Muhajirun with the Ansar as brothers and made faith the basis of relationship.
This weakened old tribal loyalty and brought former opponents together.
By this act, the Prophet (SAW) tried to put an end to the disputes that divided Madinah.
So the significance of ukhuwah lay in its aim to unite the different quarrelling groups in the city.
Answer:D. Sought to unite the disputing factions of the city.
