Description: Map showing the general itinerary of the early Muslim general Khalid ibn al-Walid's campaigns during the Ridda wars. The campaigns were launched against Arab tribes opposed to or not yet submitted to the early Muslim state based in Medina. Khalid's campaigns specifically targeted the tribes of Tayy, Asad, Ghatafan, Amir, Tamim and Hanifa, whose dwelling territory is shown on the map along with those of other major tribes. The approximate area of the early Muslim state is shaded in green. Sources:
