له پیغمبر ﷺ سره اړیکه

Yazid came to Islam as part of the Qurayshi elite after the conquest of Mecca. The Prophet treated him with generosity and included him in the new Muslim community without distinction. Yazid proved his sincerity rapidly and the Prophet saw in him the military talent and noble bearing that would serve Islam well — a prophecy fulfilled in his outstanding command during the Syrian conquest.

بشپړ ژوندلیک

Yazid ibn Abi Sufyan was the elder brother of Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan and one of the most capable military commanders produced by the Quraysh after the conquest of Mecca. He and his family embraced Islam at the conquest of Mecca in 8 AH. Despite coming from the family of Abu Sufyan — former opponents of the Prophet — Yazid quickly proved his commitment and military ability under the Prophet's training.

He was appointed by the caliph Abu Bakr as one of the four commanders of the Syrian conquest, leading a division toward Gaza and the Levantine coast. He was known for his gentle and fair treatment of conquered peoples and his strict military discipline. He passed away from the plague of Amwas (Emmaus) in 18 AH, dying as a martyr during the conquest — one of the most honoured deaths in Islamic history. Abu Ubayda ibn al-Jarrah and many other companions died in the same plague.
