The apostle sent out troops in the district round Mecca inviting men to God: he did not order them to fight. Among those he sent was Khalid b. al-Walid whom he ordered to go to the lower part of the flat country as a missionary; he did not send him to fight. He subdued the B. Jadhima and killed some of them.}} | The apostle sent out troops in the district round Mecca inviting men to God: he did not order them to fight.

:The spears came at us not once nor twice. | |||
:Were it not for the religion of Muhammad's people | |||

:What happened to 'Amir, confound them, is not our fault | |||
:Because their minds were foolish and went astray.}} | |||
