The sword of Allah
Strategy + Speed + Strength + Patience + adaptation = The Muslim Arab armies of the 7th century. No wonder they crushed the byzantines and sassanians so quickly in the fashion they did even though they were outnumbered and less equipped.
🐒If I was in byzantine I would have felt sympathy to Khalid , lucky he was born early, I had a bad appetitite for women because my wife fooled me till end and I couldn't makeup myself to be above her, so I went for my enemies wife's, ok god can justify me, but I feel ashamed in another life, that I fooled myself before many women because one women fooled me, but it was ok , give and take, better than allowing my wife to fully control my conscience and getting my friends esteem for having enemy wife's, what else, also creating fear, not bad😅😂
😎Today I understood khalids strategy or strength was only good for that times, of course he was a just man to be respected, but not special in any way to me compared to salahuddin, he is nothing compared😅😂@@commodusmeridius4718
While Khalid himself is a military genius, the religious zeal was the another reason why his armies were always in high morale and thus could launch this kind of attack. It's also proved that with high morale, your troops would be more successful in the battlefield
High morale, better fighters, battle hardened and if you add the greatest military General to lead them. It's not a shock how the Rashidun caliphate defeated 2 superpowers and is the empire with the highest win rate in all history. Truly a fascinating Era.
@@1sultan189the two posts were also exhausted from a decades long war
@@1sultan189 though khalid was a great general i wouldent call him the greatest. Also when taking into account the ammount of covil wars the ERE fought along with the the sassanians. Its no wonder the muslims won

It's not plot armor when you always win duels against your opponents before each battle. They were less equipped and numerically disadvantaged but their skill and leadership made them practically invincible.
Khalid Ibn Walid literally had plot armor. Man took the biggest risks yet always came out on top.
He was a Saint 🌹 His biography is fascinating, from a fierce enemy of the blessed message to it's greatest general.

@@dmgdondada If you face an enemy you won't know anything about it you won't know what he is planning to do and what in his mind so you can't prepare for it. And especially opponent like khalid it's almost impossible to predict where he would strike since he known to use different strategies in every battle flanking is his will known one. he also use this on his battle against prophet Muhammad. That why flanking with khalid is always deadly
all generals have done it so i don't think it's his signature move
In this battle, he blocked the enemy’s escape even when they were outnumbered and seemed like they were losing 😂
Three rules of ancient warfare,
1) If the enemy seems to retreat too easily, it's a feint.
2) If the enemy charges you at your strongest point, their cavalry is going around to your rear.
3) If there is an obvious weak point in the line, it is a trap.
If you are fighting against Subutai
Don't retreat through the gap
It's a trap
4. if any one of above is seen, it may be real as your opponent will be thinking these points.
@@uzairahmed2185 I don’t understand what you mean
@@user-uc7qb1su4e he meant if your enemies do all three above, retreating, charging you when you're at your strongest point, and make an obvious weak spot, they are also thinking about this.
@@Furukan455 Oh I see thanks
Khalid and hanabil really loved the flanking sandwich tactic 😂😂😂
In Cannae and Yarmouk, the Romans intentionally chose narrow battlefields so that their opponents could not use their cavalry to manoeuvre just for Khalid and Hannibal to outflank them anyway.

no not reason it was God's mercy
A few days before his death, an old friend called to see him and sat at his bedside. Khalid raised the cover from his right leg and said to his visitor, “Do you see a space of the span of a hand on my leg which is not covered by some scar of the wound of a sword or an arrow or a lance?”
The friend examined Khalid’s leg and confessed that he did not. Khalid raised the cover from his left leg and repeated his question. Again the friend agreed that between the wounds farthest apart the space was less than a hand’s span.
Khalid raised his right arm and then his left, for a similar examination and with a similar result. Next he bared his great chest, now devoid of most of its mighty sinews, and here again the friend was met with a sight which made him wonder how a man wounded in so many places could survive. The friend again admitted that he could not see the space of one hand span of unmarked skin.
Khalid had made his point. “Do you not see?” he asked impatiently. “I have sought martyrdom in a hundred battles. Why could I not have died in battle?”
“You could not die in battle”, replied the friend.
“Why not?”
“You must understand, O Khalid,” the friend explained, “that when the Messenger of Allah, on whom be the blessings of Allah and peace, named you the Sword of Allah, he predetermined that you would not fall in battle. If you had been killed by an unbeliever it would have meant that Allah’s sword had been broken by an enemy of Allah; and that could never be.”
Masha Allah 🙏
Such a Rahmah from Allah to has such a friend.
Khalid's own name in Arabic means eternal, everlasting, immortal. Foresaw his status which will forever go down in history as the sword god & as one of the best military generals in the world.
Ameen
That makes no sense. The conclusion was reached from the data gathered from a past narrative and added to a bias. Such comments can be made for Rollo of Normandy or Bjorn Ironside (yes they were historical characters. Ragnar was nigh-fictional but he existed too. Bjorn led a pretty dangerous life, survived an air raid, survived multiple shipwrecks. Rollo went from a viking to a ruler). Just don't. If Khalid did fall in battle you would say "it was the reminder that Allah grants favor as easily as he takes it away". Ridiculous and insincere.

The will to win can never be underappreciated, especially when facing against what was one of the strongest armies of its day.
He is the best p4p General to ever lead a battle, due to his undefeated battles and wars, and also due to his undefeated duelling record.
So agreed
He wasn't undefeated, he lost the battle of Mu'tah
@@polyperchon4511he even won this one bro
@@my5092 No he lost, he couldn't reverse the tide of the battle..
@@polyperchon4511Not really.
Muslim accounts of the battle differ over the result. According to David S. Powers, the earliest Muslim sources like al-Waqidi record the battle as a humiliating defeat (hazīma). However, Montgomery Watt notes that al-Waqidi also recorded an account where the Byzantine forces fled. Powers suggests that later Muslim historians reworked the early source material to reflect the Islamic view of God's plan. Subsequent sources present the battle as a Muslim victory given that most of the Muslim soldiers returned safely.
This is why generals and men have to read books.

Never lost a battle, had incredible amount of wars, battles, skirmishes before the age of the gun.
@@Al-Azdi and Aurelian did more hundreds of years earlier in a shorter time frame. Not to mention he fought enemies that were actually in prime fighting condition
@@casematecardinal It took Caesar 8 years to conquer Gaul only, but he is still a better general than Aurelian.
Hannibal didn't conquer any territory but he's still a better general than both of them combined.
The amount of territory conquered is the last thing to look at when comparing great generals.
One looks at the resources each had, the quality of troops, equipment and armor, but most of all the power difference between them and those they fought, were they punching up or down?
Augustus conquered the entire eastern empire after one battle, does that make him better than Aurelian? No.
And it took Aurelian 2 battles at most against zenobia and he nearly lost the first, relying only on the quality of his troops with no tactical prowess to speak of. He was basically putting down a rebellion.
I still find Aurelian impressive, but he does not compare to the greatest generals of history. And I understand if u think Alexander or hannibal are better than Khalid, even if I don't agree, but Aurelian is not even close.
Lastly, The Persians and Byzantines might not have been at their 100%, but the strength each of them had was more than abundantly enough to squash the Muslims, especially since the Muslims were fighting both empires AT THE SAME TIME.

Reason why Muslims were so successful at the start at conquering against the superpowers at that time was not only because of the tactics and great commanders but they were companions of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) and had strong faith as they had known that they would conquer these lands and they knew they religion was the truth so that’s why they did not fear death hence why 80 years after Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) passed away they had lands from Spain all the way to the borders of China

Vahan seemed like a capable military commander. Its not his fault that he faced against the greatest military commander and his army faced against the first generation of Muslim armies, the best of Muslims.
@Al-Samh yup, if Vahan was facing a different military commander, he might have won.
Plus, the first generations of Muslims were fierce fighter because of their faith and upbringing, the Arabian peninsula is a very harsh place.

Khalid was really good at flanking
