Zubayr in [['Arafat]], when the caliph's forces arrived, he went to Mecca with the permission of the caliph. He sieged the city for seven or nine months since [[Dhu l-Qa'da 1]], [[72]]/March | Al-Hajjaj left Kufa in [[Jumada I]], [[72]]/September-October 691, he went to [[Ta'if]] in the same year, and then camped there.
