Abu Bakr sends Ula bin Al Hadhrami's corps against the rebels of Bahrain after the Battle of Yamamah.
Ula arrives in Bahrain to find the apostate forces gathered at Hajr and entrenched in a strong position.
Ula mounts a surprise attack one night and captures the city.
The rebels retreat to the coastal regions, where they make one more stand but are decisively defeated.
Most of them surrender and revert to Islam.
This operation is completed at about the end of January 633.
