Expedition of Ghalib ibn Abdullah al-Laithi to Al-Kadid took place in May 629 AD, 8AH, 1st month, of the Islamic Calendar,〔 Note: 8AH, 1st month=May 629〕 Or according to other sources May 628 AD, 7AH, 3rd Month.〔Note: Book contains a list of battles of Muhammad in Arabic, English translation available (here )〕 ==Expedition== A platoon headed by Ghalib bin ‘Abdullah Al-Laithi in Safar or in Rabi‘ Al-Awwal 7 A.H, Muhammad sent Ghalib ibn Abdallah al-Laythi, with between 10-15 men to raid the Banu al-Mulawwih at al-Kadid.〔("The first saryah of the year led by Ghalib b. Abdullah to al-Kadid", King Abdul Aziz University ) Author references, Ibn Sa'd Volume 2, Pg 124-125〕 According to the Abu Dawud Hadith collection, when the Muslims arrived at al-Kadid they met a man, al-Harith ibn Malik and took him as a prisoner. He informed Ghalib that he had come to embrace Islam. But he chained him up for safety reasons. The tribe was attacked and taken by surprise.〔William Muir, (The life of Mahomet and history of Islam to the era of the Hegira ), Volume 4, p. 94.〕 The Muslims managed to kill a large number of the enemy soldiers and captured a great deal of booty. A large army of polytheists then pursued the Muslims, but heavy floods hindered the pursuit, and the Muslims managed to escape in safety.〔Mubarakpuri, (The Sealed Nectar ), p. 241. ((online )), "A platoon headed by Ghalib bin ‘Abdullah Al-Laithi in Safar"〕 According to Ibn Sa'd and Tabari, based on an account through Ibn Ishaq, who was told by a man from the Aslam tribe, the password used by Muslims to recognize one another while fighting at night was: Amit Amit (kill kill, in arabic) The Muslim Scholar Saifur Rahman al Mubarakpuri suggest that the reason for the attack was that the Banu Mulawwih were being provocative (without further details),〔Mubarakpuri, (The Sealed Nectar ), p. 241. ((online )), "A platoon headed by Ghalib bin ‘Abdullah Al-Laithi in Safar"〕 whereas the Non Muslim historian Sir William Muir claims the reason for the attack is unknown.〔William Muir, (The life of Mahomet and history of Islam to the era of the Hegira ), Volume 4, p. 94.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Expedition of Ghalib ibn Abdullah al-Laithi (Al-Kadid)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
