624 CE

The Muslims end up engaging this Meccan army, a force of around one thousand men, at the plains of Badr several days after they had failed to intercept the caravan.

This conflict, the Battle of Badr, ultimately results in a Muslim victory.

The death of most Quraysh leaders in the battle leaves Abu Sufyan the leader of Mecca.
