The Siege and Conquest of Damascus (634) lasted from 17 Jumada II to 20 Rajab 13 AH, when the Muslims conquered the city during the era of the Rashidun Caliphate. Damascus was the first major city of the Byzantine Empire to be included in the Islamic conquest of Syria. The last of the Roman-Persian wars ended in 627, when Heraclius concluded a successful campaign against the Persians in Mesopotamia. At the same time, the Prophet Muhammad unified the Arabian Peninsula under the banner of Islam. After his death in 632, the first Rashidun Caliph Abu Bakr al-Siddiq succeeded in suppressing internal rebellions seeking to overthrow the nascent state and then sought to conquer countries outside the borders of the Arabian Peninsula. In Safar 13 AH, Abu Bakr al-Siddiq invaded the Byzantine Empire in the Levant and decisively defeated the Byzantine army at the Battle of Ajnadayn. The Muslim armies marched north and laid siege to Damascus. The city fell into the hands of the Muslims after a bishop informed Khalid ibn al-Walid that it was possible to breach the city walls by attacking a certain location with only light defenses at night. When Khalid attacked from the eastern gate, Thomas, the commander of the Byzantine garrison, negotiated a peaceful surrender with the commander Abu Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah and it was agreed to surrender the city. ----- Our Facebook page / erfolg123 # Conquest_of_Damascus # Khalid_bin_al-Walid # Lines Featured videos Al-Hajeb Al-Mansur ibn Abi Amir 2 Eliminates Ghalib al-Nasiri, al-Mushafi and the Slavs and establishes the Amirid state • Al-Hajeb Al-Mansur ibn Abi Amir 2 Eliminates...
