Battle of the Trench - History of Islam

Mecca regrouped an army of 10,000, never seen before in the history of Arabia and charged towards Medina.

Muhammad (P.B.U.H) harvested all the crops and built a trench all around the city. Blown away, the Meccans attacks were not successful and they could not pass into Medina. After a fortnight of trying, they ran out of supplies and retreated back to Mecca, another Muslim victory.
