Sariyyah (expeditions which he ordered)
The expedition of Abu Amir Al-Ashari, took place in January 630 AD or 8AH, 10th month, of the Islamic Calendar, in Autas.[4][5][6][7]
In this expedition, Muhammad dispatched a number of Muslims under the leadership of Abu ‘Amir Al-Ashari. The Muslims chased the enemy, after which a skirmish took place, and the leader of the platoon, Abu Amir was killed. [8][9]
Ibn Hisham, Sirah, IV, 99-100, states that he was shot by two brothers, al-'Ala' and Awfa, sons of al-Harith from the Banu Jusham b. Mu'awiyah. One arrow hit his heart, while the other hit his knee. Abu Musa attacked and killed both of them. Ibn Hisham adds another note describing Abu 'Amir's bravery and states that he was challenged to a duel by ten men, all of them brothers. Abu 'Amir accepted the challenge, killed nine of them and allowed the tenth, who later became a Muslim, to escape. Waqidi, Maghazi, III, 915-16, reports a similar story and states that Abu 'Amir killed nine contestants but was killed by the tenth .Ibn Sa' Tabaqat, II/I,109
