List Of Expeditions Of Muhammad
__NOTOC__ The list of expeditions of Muhammad includes the expeditions undertaken by the Muslim community during the lifetime of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Some sources use the word ''ghazwa'' and a related plural ''maghazi'' in a narrow technical sense to refer to the expeditions in which Muhammad took part, while using the word ''sariyya'' (pl. ''saraya'') for those early Muslim expeditions where he was not personally present. Other sources use the terms ''ghazwa'' and ''maghazi'' generically to refer to both types of expeditions. Early Islamic sources contain significant divergences in the chronology of expeditions. Unless noted otherwise, the dates given in this list are based on ''Muhammad at Medina'' by Montgomery Watt, who in turn follows the chronology proposed by Leone Caetani.

The Al-Qarada raid was an event in early Islamic history which took place in the month of Jumada al-Thani, in the year 3 A.H of the Islamic calendar, i.e. November 624. The Meccans led by Safwan ibn Umayyah, who lived on trade, left in the Summer for Syria for their seasonal trade business.

Therefore, they tried to find another trade route for their caravan trade. A group of Quraysh headed by Safwan ibn Umayyah took the risk of sending a caravan through a route far east of Medina, using a reliable guide. However, Muha ...

Invasion Of Banu Qurayza
The siege of Banu Qurayza, also known as the battle of Banu Qurayza, took place in Dhul Qa‘dah during January of 627 CE (5 AH) and followed on from the Battle of the Trench. The Banu Qurayza, a Jewish tribe that once lived in Medina, though allied with the Muslims and even lent them equipment to dig the trench during the Battle of the Trench, refused to fight in the battle as they were offended by Muhammad's attacks on Jews. Waqidi claims that Muhammad had a treaty with the tribe which was torn up. Norman Stillman and Watt believe that the existence of such a treaty was "doubtful", though Watt believes the Qurayza had agreed not to assist Muhammad's enemies.Stillman, The Jews of Arab Lands: A History and Source Book, pp. 14-16. According to Safiur Rahman Mubarakpuri, Peters, Stillman, Guillaume, Inamdar and Ibn Kathir, on the day of the Meccans' withdrawal Muhammad led his forces against Banu Qurayza. According to Muslim tradition he had been ordered to do so by God.P ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Expedition Of Al-Muraysi'
The Expedition of al-Muraysiʿ () was an early Muslim campaign against the tribe of Banu Mustaliq which took place in December 627 CE. The initial assault According to Islamic sources, Banu Mustaliq supported Quraysh and joined it during the Battle of Uhud against the Muslims. It governed the main road leading to Makkah which acted as a strong barrier for Muslims preventing them from reaching Makkah. Two months after Muḥammad returned from the Expedition of Dhū Qarad, he began to hear rumours that the Banū al-Muṣṭaliq were preparing to attack him, so he sent a spy, Buraydah ibn Al-Ḥasīb Al-Aslamī, to confirm this. The Banū al-Muṣṭaliq also believed that Muḥammad was preparing to attack them. So they in turn sent a spy reconnoiter to explore the positions of the Muslims, but he was captured and killed by them. Muhammad attacked the Banu Mustaliq while they were inattentive and their cattle were drinking water. Knowing that, the Arabs that accompanied them defe ...

Expedition Of Dumat Al-Jandal
The Expedition of Dumat al-Jandal is an early Muslim expedition which took place in August or September of 626 AD. According to Indian biographer of Muhammad, Safiur Rahman Mubarakpuri, Dumat al-Jandal is located at about a distance of fifteen days' march from Medina and five from Damascus. According to historian William Montgomery Watt, it is 500 miles from Medina.{{cite book, author=Watt, W. Montgomery, author-link=Montgomery Watt, title=Muhammad at Medina, url=https://books.google.com/books?id=GfAGAQAAIAAJ, publisher=Oxford University Press, year=1956, isbn=978-0-19-577307-1, page=35, quote=This expedition receives scant notice in the sources, but in some ways it is the most significant so far. As Dumah was some 500 miles from Medina there can have been no immediate threat to Muhammad, but it may be, as Caetani suggests, 1 that communications with Syria were being interrupted and supplies to Medina stopped. It is tempting to suppose that was already envisaging something of the ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Expedition Of Bir Maona
The Massacre of Bi'r Ma'una () was the killing of Muslim missionaries by the Mushrikites four months after the Battle of Uhud in 625 (4 AH). It is believed the Islamic prophet Muhammad sent missionaries to preach Islam, at the request of Abu Bara. Forty (as per Ibn Ishaq) or seventy (as per Sahih Bukhari) of the Muslim missionaries were killed. Background Four months after the Uhud battle, a delegation of Banu Amir came to Muhammad and presented him with a gift. Abu Bara stayed in Medina. Muhammad declined to accept that gift because it was from a polytheist and asked Abu Bara to embrace Islam. He requested Muhammad to send some Muslims to the people of Najd to call them to Islam. At first, Muhammad was quite apprehensive of this, as he feared that some harm might befall these Muslim missionaries. On Muhammad’s hesitation, Abu Bara guaranteed the safety of the emissaries of Muhammad. The Muslim scholar al-Tabari describes the event as follows: Ibn Ishaq's Biography claims ...

Expedition Of Al Raji
The Expedition of al Raji occurred directly after the Battle of Uhud in the year AH 4 of the Islamic calendar. Background Immediately after the Uhud battle, a group of men from Adal and al-Qarah came to Muhammad; requested him to send with them a few instructors to teach Islam to their people who had embraced Islam. Muhammad agreed to this, and promptly sent six men (or ten men as per Ibn Sa’d)Ibn Sa’d Tabaqat, vol. ii, p. 66. with them. However, those emissaries were sent by the Banu Lahyan, who wanted to avenge the killing of their chief, Khalid bin Sufyan al-Hadhali in the Expedition of Abdullah Ibn Unais. Among the six missionaries selected by Muhammad was Asim bin Thabit, who was appointed the head of this delegation. In a differing account in Sahih al-Bukhari, ten men were sent in all, and they were sent as spies, "to bring the enemy's secrets."Sahih al Bukhari 7402 Attack on Muslims When the Muslim party arrived at al-Raji, the delegation took rest for the night.
