السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركات

When Muslims landed at the shores of Andalusia / Spain under the command of Tariq bin Ziyad, he ordered them to burn all their boats. After that he gave the Sermon (please google for details)............ The most important were his historical words meaning that after having burnt your boats, the sea is behind you and the enemy is in front of you, you have no option but only to win. AlHamdulillah they fought with the same vigour and sioncerity of NUR and triumphed. That was the beginning of a great historical era .........................

I want you to think of an art work (not urgent) about the concept of burning the boats (and after you google http://ms.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariq_ibn_Ziyad)
