[@HanSime]

However, there appear to be numerous mistakes on Vahan’s part out of I can only imagine sheer arrogance and being baited. The one on one’s with officers being killed in front of their troops not just damaged morale, but also troop cohesion and discipline. Furthermore I feel Vahan misused his cavalry (by keeping them in reserve instead of exploiting frequently exposures and openings) and the four divisions each working on their own, rather than coordinating and supporting one another. There were moments, as portrayed here, where Khalid could have found himself surrounded by cataphracts, overextended and alone, but the cavalry stood back to only aid their own sections. So although Khalid ultimately outwitted his opponent, his opponent allowed it by a string of bad decisions.

I recommend exploring the Battle of Uhud, a historical event where the Muslim army faced defeat against a non-Muslim force. Initially, the non-Muslims were struggling in the war, but with strategic maneuvers led by Khalid ibn Walid, the tide of the battle shifted in their favor. This marked a significant comeback. The defeat of the Muslim army in this battle serves as a lesson, emphasizing the importance of tactics in warfare. It conveys the message that mere devotion to Islam may not guarantee victory; understanding and employing strategic approaches are crucial. The Battle of Uhud underscores the idea that certain natural laws and rules cannot be overcome solely through religious devotion. When you take all logical actions, you can now expect the help of Allah. This should be the approach of Muslims to each challenge they have.

As all Prophets are rightly guided so Prophet recognized the courage, fighting expertize, leadership of Khalid in the battlefield, so he was nicknamed by the Prophet so. At his death bed, Khalid RA said that there isn't a place on his body that hasn't been wounded, injured during countless battles he had fought throughout his life. No matter how much he craved for the martyrdom, he was disappointed to never get that status due to the fact that the Prophet nicknamed him as the sword of the God.

You have to keep in mind the... lets call it "tradition of historical story telling" in the early islamic culture. So many of the important battles of the Arabs during that time supposedly took several days, (despite this beeing super rare) included single combat (which the Arabs usually won) and clever trickery by the Arabs. Its almost formulaic, and therefore not really believable. I guess we can trust the claims about who won the battles, but as soon as you see those elements, you should realize that its an islamic source, and therefore be sceptical about any details.

Its a bunch of greek fanboys who have a cultural reason to elevate Alexander. I'm more inclined to believe that no general has ever come out of their career without losing at least one battle, but if you win a major war of course sources are gonna paint you as a god.

"May the eyes of cowards never rest” Khalid ibn Alwaleed

[@princevegeta7701]

I hear people questioning Umar's decision to demote Khalid with some wrongfully accusing him of jealousy while the real reason was to show that all victories are from Allah alone and not some commander, but if we see the bigger picture and take a leaf from Hannibal's history, we can actually see the wisdom behind it. It was said about Hannibal by one of his commanders that he knew how to get victories, but he didn't know how to use them. A similar case can be seen here as well. The end goal was not to just beat large armies into submission and send war booty to Medinah, the main goal was to spread the word of God all over the world. This includes everything, from rules of warfare to rules of administration and even basic day to day life. And Khalid, though an absolute UNIT in warfare, and excellent in administration, lacked the level of knowledge about Islamic rulings and teachings of Prophet ﷺ that Abu Ubaydah had. He was among the firsts to accept Islam, was known for his piety and knowledge of Islam. He was called "The safekeeper of Ummah" by Prophet ﷺ himself. By appointing him as the leader of Muslim front in that region the dynamics of that front is changed from military expedition to inviting more people towards Islam. Hence appointment of Abu Ubaydah was not only justified but also necessary for Islam to flourish in that region.

[@deeipomar2366]

Best argument for this issue I've ever read in my life! It should also be noted that Khalid tended to take absurdly huge risks in his campaigns while Abu Ubaida was more cautious and wise, we can see clearly an epitome of his wisdom when he appointed Khalid as the overall commander when the need arose. He didn't care about his position, he was wise enough to see the ultimate goal and worked towards achieving it by any means even at the cost of his own reputation and power

It fascinates me how little interest Khalid had in playing the political game. He was a warrior first and foremost and gave very little consideration to the politics of the early Caliphate. He was popular enough across the ranks to take seize control if he'd wanted to, but he died having felt like he was cast aside for simply being great at leading armies.

It doesn't take away any of his achievements and he was against 2 empires and 4 military powerhouses fighting on 6 fronts at the same time, it was a completely different war and also Khalid while not outright "losing" has had military failures failing to achieve his goal such as Battle of Trenches. I also don't understand this desire for him to fight on the "front", like I stated before musket warfare is completely different and he needs to employ his strategies by overseeing the whole battlefield, we're talking about feats and military tactical prowess not bravery which he still was a charismatic and committed leader Charles is noway near the level of Napoleon and his achievements nor does any historian agree with you, the reason you say this was due to his reckleness in thrusting himself in battle paralleled with Khalid's. In fact the reason Khalid would fight in the front is that he wished to die fighting for the sake of Allah and die on the battlefied. Napoleon singlehandedly expanded French territory across all of Europe establishing client states and introducing the Napoleonic Code that would have legalistic implication up until today. Khalid was a tactical genius but lacking in strategy and if it wasn't for Abu Ubaydah he would not have been able to establish states under Islam

Id like to thank you so much for this video! Id also want to note this: That when day 3 or 5 ended, Khalid changed the troops of his flanks. The left with the right and vice versa. The aim of this was psychological warfare so that the enemy flanks mirroring his army would see new faces/warriors and would believe that the Muslims received reinforcements when they did not. Khalid would have his army hold 2 torches instead of 1 at night to show that reinforcements have arrived and early in the morning he'd have his horses kick the sand to create large clouds of dust showing that reinforcements actually arrived. General Khalid is definitely one of the brightest military minds to ever walk this earth. I read one of the comments below and please please make a long compilation of Khalids military achievements starting from the Sassanids and ending with the yarmouk battles, just like Hannibals video which I watch at least 3 times a year as its one of my fave videos on youtube!

He was godlike tactician and great to time management especially to spot the critical moments and the necessary moves in order to keep his lines or to destroy the enemy ones. I think it remembers me Subutai who won countless battles and campains under the Jenkins Chan rule. He was also very adaptive like Velisarius and had the same fate like Velisarius: he got attention by jealous leaders and other commanders who feared his fame and legendary victories. On the other hand the backbone of his army in this fight were ...arab women who threatened their sons and husbands in order to keep the line. I think this was almost hilarious and this happened at least twice near their camps when arab fighters were ready to collapse.

Umar wasn't jealous of him! We have different considerations than you.

[@asmrnaturecat984]

Most of companion and advisors understood that khalid's removal is necessary in the long run Unlike hannibal whom achievement didn't gain anything, khalid's one cemented and last until today

As an Arab, I am glad you were able to pronounce our names But the information that Omar bin Al-Khattab, the cousin of Khaled bin Al-Walid, is wrong In fact, they only share the great-grandfather, who is Ka'b and he is the eighth father of Omar and Khalid, meaning that they meet at their eighth grandfather And the Arabs in the past considered them all cousins. I know an unimportant piece of information, but I am empty I have nothing to do 😅

[@asmrnaturecat984]

I believe he is cousin from his mother side

[@_explanations8119]

Yes, you are right. mother ofOmar is from Bani Makhzum, the family of Khaled@@asmrnaturecat984

They were cousins from the mothers side

[@aboss7243]

no matter how far the relationship is, for Arabs to consider them all cousins show they have a strong sense of community. I love it 😊

[@DritonSelmani-zc1fq]

We must not forget the bravery of arab women in this battle and they’re crucial contribution to victory

[@IbnIbrahem]

Can you imagine a man in his 50s going for a 1v1 death duel against a strong young general... Can you imagine Khalid risking his entire army to execute a pincer attack flank with all his cavalry... what was going through their minds as their horses galloped to surrond the enemy.. ya Allah...

It's really awkward when you glance over your shoulder and notice an enemy force sitting across your only line of retreat or supply, right?

[@archiebellega956]

It's true up to WW2, no one likes to be outflanked. Even in Navy there's the sentence of "Crossing the T" which is essentially outflanking your enemy, in this case creating T shape where your ship is the horizontal line, allowing you to fully bombing/shooting your enemy's ship to oblivion.
