Submission declined on 17 April 2024 by Chaotic Enby (talk). Good citation work, but the article should be made clearer and focus more on the battle itself, and the lead should describe what the battle was rather than being simply a wider context. Declined by Chaotic Enby 4 months ago. | ![]() |

The Muslim conquests of Afghanistan began during the Muslim conquest of Persia as the Arab Muslims migrated eastwards to Khorasan, Sistan and Transoxiana. Fifteen years after the Battle of Nahavand in 642 AD, they controlled all Sasanian domains except in Afghanistan.[1] Fuller Islamization was not achieved until the period between 10th and 12th centuries under Ghaznavid and Ghurid dynasties who patronized Muslim religious institutions. Due to this, the Kabul Shahis and the Umayyads fought in battle of Bost in Bost, Afghanistan in the Helmand Province and the Kabul Shahis were defeated by the Umayyads and they conquered all the Sassanid territories in Afghanistan and the Kabul Shahis bordered the Umayyads in the Indian subcontinent but the Umayyads were defeated and overthrown out of the Indian subcontinent by the Indians in the Battle of Aror and many other battles in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan.[2]

The Muslim conquests of Afghanistan began during the Muslim conquest of Persia as the Arab Muslims migrated eastwards to Khorasan, Sistan and Transoxiana. Fifteen years after the Battle of Nahavand in 642 AD, they controlled all Sasanian domains except in Afghanistan. Fuller Islamization was not achieved until the period between 10th and 12th centuries under Ghaznavid and Ghurid dynasties who patronized Muslim religious institutions. [3][4][5] The battle was not long lasted as soon Rabi ibn Ziyad al-Harithi defeated the Rutbil, He proceeded forward with a purpose of conquering other region such as Zamindawar Zaranj and others. In the reign of Mu'awiya I, Abd al-Rahman ibn Samura again became governor of Sistan. He was faced with a formidable task, for we are told that the people of Sistan had apostatized, and the people of Zabulistan and Kabul had broken their treaties. By a series of campaigns he is said to have captured Kabul, in spite of the vigorous resistance of the polytheists, defeated the inhabitants of Zabulistan, and captured Bost and Rukhkhaj (Arachosia). Baladhuri says that this officer "took with him to Basra slaves captured at Kabul, and they built him a mosque in his castle after the Kabul style of building." He died in A.H. 50 (A.D. 670) but before his death he was succeeded by Rabi ibn Ziyad al-Harithi. Rabi's successor Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad continued the warring against Rutbil upon being appointed in AD 673. With no option left in given situation Rutbil had to negotiate a truce treaty for both Kabul and Zabul, in which the governor of Sistan acknowledged control of these territories by Rutbil and the King of Kabul.
