The First Raid on Banu Thalabah was a failure, and many of Muhammad's companions were ambushed and killed. When Muhammad, learned of this incident, he immediately dispatched an army of 40 soldiers under the leadership of Abu Ubaidah bin al-Jarrah in retaliation for the killings of his companions. This army arrived there in Dhu al-Qassah just before dawn. Immediately upon their arrival, they raided the inhabitants by surprise, but they quickly fled to the mountains. The Muslims took their cattle, clothes and captured one man. The captured man embraced Islam and Muhammad released him.[1]
