The event began a year after the
Battle of Uhud in the 5th year of
the Hijri when the infidel
Quraish gathered strength to
destroy the Muslims in Medina.
The Quraysh disbelievers
conspired with Bani Sualim,
Kinanah, the people of Tihamah
and Al-Ahabis. They called a
meeting in Marru Dzahraan,
about 40 kilometers from
Makkah, to carry out a massive
attack.
Then a group of Jews went to meet the
tribe of Gatafan and called them to join.
Finally the Gatafan tribe fulfilled their
call. So the Quraish left with a force
consisting of Abyssinians and their
followers. Their commander is Abu
Sufyan alias Sakhr ibnu Harb, while the
commander of the Gatafan people is
Uyaynah ibnu Hisn ibnu Badr. The total
number of allied forces almost reached
10,000 personnel.
