The battle was launched in order to overcome the threats of the Damra tribe. When the Damra tribe learned about the Prophet's (s) presence in the area, they asked for a peace treaty. On his way in the al-Abwa' station, the Prophet (s) made a peace treaty with them.

The Prophet (s) appointed Sa'd b. 'Ubada as his successor in Medina and then left the city together with 60 cavalries of Muhajirun in order to attack the caravan of the Quraysh and tribes residing in the area, such as Banu Damra b. Kinana. No person from Ansar attended the battle. The flag of the Islamic army in this battle was held by Hamza b. 'Abd al-Muttalib.
When the Prophet (s) arrived in al-Abwa', there was no one from the Quraysh there. However, Banu Damra had arrived in the area in order to make a peace treaty with the Prophet (s). Mukhshi b. 'Amr al-Dumri, the head of the tribe at the time, signed a peace treaty with Muslims.
