Khalid ibn al-Walid Epic Conquest of Roman Levant (Documentary)

Support our work at Patreon:   / historicwarlens   In 633 AD, the ancient world was turned upside down. Having just systematically dismantled the Sassanid Persian superpower in Iraq, Caliph Abu Bakr turned his eyes westward to open a second, infinitely more dangerous front: the invasion of Roman Syria. In this massive, about 2-hour documentary compilation (The Syrian Campaign—Part 1), witness one of the most audacious military campaigns in human history. To save the disjointed Muslim armies from total annihilation by Emperor Heraclius's imperial war machine, Khalid ibn Walid must execute an impossible, suicidal march across the waterless Syrian desert. Follow the Sword of Allah as he shatters the Byzantine defenses, from the psychological terror of the Siege of Bosra to the apocalyptic, world-changing climax on the blood-soaked plains of Ajnadein, where 32,000 desert veterans face a mathematically impossible clash against a 90,000-strong Roman juggernaut. This is the complete, epic story of the opening moves of the Syrian Campaign. ⏳ CHAPTERS: 00:00 Introduction: The Conquest of Syria 02:34 Chapter 1: The False Start 13:18 Chapter 2: Battle of Wadi Araba 20:13 Chapter 3: Battle of Dathin 27:55 Chapter 4: The Suicide March 42:48 Chapter 5: The Shadow from the East 58:38 Chapter 6: The Black Walls of Bosra 1:09:54 Chapter 7: The Roman Juggernaut (Battle of Ajnadein) 📺 WATCH SEASON 1 (The Complete Iraq Campaign): [   • Khalid ibn al-Walid Iraq Campaign (All Bat...  ] #KhalidIbnWalid #SyrianCampaign #BattleOfAjnadein #IslamicHistory #MilitaryHistory #HistoricWarLens #ByzantineEmpire #Documentary #EarlyMuslimWars Sources & Citations: 👉 Tarikh al-Tabari (History of the Prophets and Kings) by Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari. 👉 Futuh al-Buldan (The Origins of the Islamic State) by Al-Baladhuri. 👉 Futuh al-Sham (The Islamic Conquest of Syria) by al-Imam al-Waqidi. 👉 The Sword of Allah: Khalid bin Al-Waleed, His Life and Campaigns by Lieutenant General A.I.
