The Expedition of al-Abwa (Waddan)
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out in Safar, in year 2 AH, with seventy men from the Muhajirun only to intercept a Quraysh caravan until he reached Waddan, and he met no resistance. He left Madinah in charge of Sa'd ibn Ubadah, may Allah be pleased with him, and in this ghazwah he concluded a treaty of alliance with Amr ibn Makhshi ad-Damri, the chief of Banu Damrah.
