Islamic History and Culture

Hammurabi was a Babylonian king, and is known for the set of laws called Hammurabi’s Code. The Hammurabi’s Code is the first or one of the first written codes of laws in recorded history. They were inscribed on stone tablets.

Musaylimah Kazzab, Kazzab meaning Liar, was a false prophet in the time of the Prophet SAW. After the Prophet SAW, Musaylimah rebelled against Caliph Abu Bakar. The Battle of Yamama was fought between the Muslim army under Khalid ibn Walid and Musaylimah. Wahshi ibn Harb, the former slave who had killed Hazrat Hamza, had accepted Islam at the time. Wahshi killed Musaylimah with the same spear. His head was cut off by Abu Dujana.
Khalid bin Walid was the commander of the army during the reign of Caliph Abu Bakar, he was replaced by Abu Ubaidah ibn Jarrah. Khalid ibn Walid is sometimes mistaken for killing Musaylimah because he was the commander of the army. Wahshi ibn Harb is the actual person to kill Musaylimah.
