It governed the main road leading to Makkah which acted as a strong barrier for Muslims preventing them from reaching Makkah. Two months after Muḥammad returned from the Expedition of Dhū Qarad, he began to hear rumours that the Banū al-Muṣṭaliq were preparing to attack him, so he sent a spy, Buraydah ibn Al-Ḥasīb Al-Aslamī, to confirm this.
