Updated: Apr 6

His first raid in which he, may God bless him and grant him peace, went out in person

Zain Al-Abidin bin Al-Hussein bin Ali, may God be pleased with them, said: “We knew the raids of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, just as we knew the surahs from the Qur’an, on the authority of Ismail bin Muhammad bin Saad bin Abi Waqqas, may God be pleased with him, my father used to teach us battles and battles and say: My son, it is the honor of your fathers, so do not waste mentioning it, the first expedition in which he, peace and blessings of God be upon him, went out was (Wadan), which was a comprehensive village of the branch’s operation, some of them call it the Battle of Al-Abwaa, some of them added it to Wadan, and some of them added it to Al-Abwaa,  because they are close together in Wadi Al-Far', six miles apart.

Its timing

The Messenger of God went to Safar at the beginning of the twelve months of the Hijra

The reason

He wanted caravans for the Quraysh and Banu Damra, and it was said: He, peace and blessings be upon him, did not want them, but wanted the caravan, which belonged to Quraysh. When he met Banu Damra, he concluded a peace treaty between him and them, He departed with sixty passengers, none of whom were supporters,He PBUH did not reach the caravan he wanted, and the reconciliation between him and Banu Damra was agreed upon

1 - They will not invade Him, nor will they crowd Him, nor will they aid an enemy against Him.

2 - And that they will have victory over those who lash out at them, and that if he calls them to victory, they will respond to him.

3 - Their master Makhshi bin Amr Al-Dhamri concluded this agreement with them and wrote a letter between them in it:

Text of the treaty: In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful: “This is a letter from Muhammad, the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, to the Banu Damra, stating that their property and their lives are safe, and they have victory over those who lash out at them on the condition that they fight in the religion of God, rather, it is the Sea of Sufa, and that when the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, called them to victory, they responded to him, they are subject to the protection of God and His Messenger. His flag was white, He was with his uncle Hamza, may God be pleased with him, and he appointed Saad bin Ubadah as his successor in charge of Medina, His absence was fifteen nights.
