'''The Battle of Khandaq''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|غزوة الخندق}}, Battle of the Trench) or '''The Battle of Aḥzāb''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|غزوة الأحزاب}}, Battle of the Confederates) took place in the [[5|fifth]] year of [[Hijra]]/627. It initially broke out by the stratagem of [[Banu Nadir]] tribe. [[Quraysh]] tribe became united with all its allies including Kafir (unbeliever) 'Arab tribes in order to eradicate Islam. The number of their soldiers was 10,000, yet Muslim army was only 3,000 soldiers. [[Banu Qurayzah]] tribe had promised to be impartial in case of war; nevertheless, they violated the contract and became confederate with the unbelievers. To take up arms against the unbelievers, Muslims dug trench around [[Medina]], an idea from [[Salman al-Farsi]]. The war terminated by Muslim's victory and the unbeliever army had to withdraw. | '''The Battle of Khandaq''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|غزوة الخندق}}, Battle of the Trench) or '''The Battle of Aḥzāb''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|غزوة الأحزاب}}, Battle of the Confederates) took place in the [[5|fifth]] year of [[Hijra]]/627.
