		The tribe of Quraish was scattered throughout Hijaz until the time of Qusayy bin Kilab, the ancestor of the Holy Prophet (upon whom be Allah's peace).
		As against the other Arabian caravans, the Quraish had the advantage that the tribes on the route held them in high esteem on account off their being keepers of the Ka'bah.
		That is how the four brothers became famous as traders and began to be called ashab al-ilaf (generators of love and affection) on account of their friendly relations with the tribes and states of the surrounding lands.

	Syed Maududi's Commentary for Surah #48 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The disbelieving Quraish had debarred the Muslims from proceeding to the Ka'bah for the past six years and no Muslim had been allowed during that period to approach the Kabah for the purpose of performing hajj and umrah.
		The disbelieving Quraish looked at it as their victory, and the Muslims were upset as to why they should be humiliated to accepting those mean conditions.
		Now the Quraish themselves by concluding this agreement with the Holy Prophet recognized his sovereignty over the territories of the Islamic State and opened the way for the Arab tribes to enter treaties of alliance with either of the political powers they liked.

	DAWN - Opinion; June 6, 2003
		As the Quraish, estimated at close to a thousand, horse and foot, advanced towards the proverbial 313 strong force of the Believers, the Prophet picked up a ‘handful of gravel’ and throwing it towards the enemy shouted “confusion on their forces”.
		The reason for the change of the tactics was that the Quraish under the leadership of Abu Sufian Ibn Harb ibn Umaiya had come front-loaded armed to teeth and at least three times more numerous than the raiding party at Badar.
		The Quraish stormed the disorganized ranks of the Believers and turned the tide of war in their favour.

		In fact the influence of the Quraish was so great that even if they had not exerted themselves in their resistance to Islam and in the defamation of the Prophet peace be upon him they still could have swayed the people.
		Also the Quraish, as leaders, protected the oppressed and helped the needy as is evidenced by Hilf Al-Fudool(17) which was an agreement concluded in the house of Abd-Allah ibn Judan (18) All of these factors influenced the Arabs to wait and refuse to accept Islam until the people of Mecca -the Quraish- accepted Islam.
		C) The outright rejection of Islam and the Prophet Muhammad by the Quraish would seemingly have been enough of a deterrent for the rest of the Arabs but the Quraish added to that very public and very vocal attacks on Islam and the Messenger of Allah using every means at their disposal.
