Khalid bin Walid writes to Caliph Abu…
July 634 CE
Khalid bin Walid writes to Caliph Abu Bakr, informing him of the progress of his operations since his entry into Syria, and sends one-fifth of the spoils which had been won during the past few weeks.
Hardly had Bosra surrendered when an agent sent by Shurahbil to the region of Ajnadayn returns to inform the Muslims that the concentration of Roman legions is proceeding apace.
Soon they will have a vast army of ninety thousand imperial soldiers at Ajnadayn.
Khalid ibn Walid orders all the Muslim corps in Syria to concentrate at Ajnadayn and on July 30, 634, defeats the imperial army in the Battle of Ajnadayn.
