The conquest of Mecca (Arabic: فَتْحُ مَكَّةَ Fatḥu Makkah, alternatively, "liberation of Mecca") was a military campaign undertaken by Muhammad and his companions during the Muslim–Quraysh War. They led the early Muslims in an advance on the Quraysh-controlled city of Mecca in December 629 or January 630[3][4] (10–20 Ramadan, 8 AH).[3] The fall of the city to Muhammad formally marked the end of the conflict between his followers and the Quraysh tribal confederation.
