The biography of Khalid came from Hafiz Ibn Kathir and Mohammad bin Ishaq. It was later revised by A.I. Akram. Lt. General A. I. Akram was a Pakistani army officer who taught at the Pakistani Staff College in 1964, and who later traveled to Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. Khalid Bin Al-Waleed was a commander in the service of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the caliphs Abu Bakr (r. 632-634) and Umar (r. 634-644) who played a leading role in the Ridda wars against rebel tribes in Arabia in 632-633 and the conquests of Sasanian Iraq in 633-634 and Byzantine Syria in 634-638. Khalid was a horseman of the Quraysh tribe's aristocratic Makhzum clan, which ardently opposed the Prophet (peace be upon him). Later he was made a commander by the Prophet, who bestowed on him the title Sayf Allah (the Sword of God).\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Akram, Kathir, Ishaq\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1643543423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643543420\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e International Publishing House\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/02\/1979\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.75h x 8.25w x 0.81d","brand":"Akram","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43994527105279,"sku":"9781643543420","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d989e9f2-380c-4aea-9ed6-c12b0af4d9a9.jpg?v=1683330682","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/khalid-bin-al-waleed-akram-9781643543420","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
