Battle of Mu'ta: Difference between revisions

The '''Battle of Muta''' (Arabic: مؤته) was one of the major [[sariya]]s (military expeditions) in the early Islamic period in 8 A.H. (629) between the Islamic army and the Roman army. The commanders of the Islamic army were, respectively, [[Ja'far b. Abi Talib]], [[Zayd b. Haritha]], and [['Abdullah b. Rawaha]], all of whom were martyred in this war. After the martyrdom of all of their commanders, and because of the greater number of Roman soldiers, Muslims retreated to [[Medina]] under the leadership of [[Khalid b. Walid]].
