The battle of Mut'ah, one of the early Muslim conflicts, took place in the 8th year of the Hegira near Ma'an in Syria between a force of 3000 Muslims and, a Roman army of some 100,000 well-trained soldiers joined by a strong force drawn from various Arab tribes.

Zayd engaged the Roman army under Heraclius at Balqa' and was the first Muslim commanders being killed on the battle field. The command of the force was entrusted to the 25 year-old Khalid Ibn Walid, who, it is claimed, broke 8 swords in the battle. Fighting a rearguard action, Khalid Ibn Walid extracted his men from the battle.
