Absolutely right! it did not happen in one day; the preparation took much time and in one night the ships were moved from one place to the other. The transfer in one night was made possible because of the large number of soldiers and horses involved in it

And adversaries, did not know what is happening. Then they certainly deserved to be defeated.

..yes, for one thing new ideas (or unconventional things) are difficult to understand especially when they are emerging, and second, secrecy was always valued and practiced in Islamic warfare; we cannot rule out that Sultan Fateh team were quite successful in hiding their real intention.

Unless the whole route, tarrain and surrounding activities are re-evaluated, it is difficult to say how and what actually happened. As regard Islamic warefare is concerned. I would not term all those as Islamic wars. Islamic wars are never commercially driven, nor does Islam advocate conversions through invasion. All those invasions, may be muslim invasions but not Islamic wars. All those adventures took place purely for commercial games or for power.

You may be right in general; Istanbul (war) has been mentioned in hadith, so it is/was Islamic war

How do you know that it was the same war, there can one one later in life. So when it comes to predictions by Holy Prophet PBUH, we assume or presume correlation a particular incident and not sure.
Lets analyse the Hadith

Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Verily, Constantinople shall be conquered, its commander shall be the best commander ever and his army shall be the best army ever.”
He has no where indicated that it will be an Islamic war, he did praise commander and his army.

I will like to share some excerpts found during my study.

Muhammad Al-Fateh was the Conqueror of Constantinople. Constantinople is a city connecting the Mediterranean with the Black Sea, and Asia with Europe. It was considered the best global trade center in the medieval ages. About it, Napoleon said: “If the world was one kingdom, there would be no better city befitting to be its capital than Constantinople.” Because of its strategic location and the hadith of Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam), Muslims tried to conquer the city for over 800 years, through 10 attempts. The first was by Othman Bin Affan (radi Allahu anhu), the second and third by Moawiya Bin Abi Sufiyan, the fourth by Sulaiman Bin Abdul-Malik and the fifth by Harun Al-Rashid. There were several other attempts, until Muhammad Al-Fateh conquered it.

This article does not support your stand on Islamic war. It is a prediction by Holy Prophet before Dajjal. Where does it say that it is obligatory on Muslims and Islamic countries to wage wars. It does indicate that we should guard against such tendencies and save ourselves from being among those who were condemned.

It also has got no bearing towards the comments which I posted. He has never did praise the capability of commander and the army, but did not state that they are blessed or they waged an Islamic war. Moreover, even if so was the case then what is the guarantee that it was the same war of Constantinople which has been predicted. Our problem is that we interpret the predictions based on our wishes or the first incident we come across. Which may be an incorrect interpretation.

Again an out of context referral to this article. It has nothing to do with Islamic wars. Pakistan and India are two rivalries and are preparing to fight each other since their inception. It is obligatory on us to remain prepared for any aggression from Indian side. As per our religious belief, we will indulge in Jihad, as Jihad has different categories of, this one is for defence of our homeland. However, such war will not be an islamic war.

Such misconceptions are spoiling image of Islam. You mentioned correctly that war to defend its land and property is a Jihad, but it is not an Islamic war. Islamic wars only in the times of Holy Prophet and now it will be when it will be fought by Imam Mehdi against Dajjal. You and me may try any twist of war, it will not be Islamic war.
