{{Campaignbox Campaigns of Caliph Umar}}

Muslims remained in peace in Medina for approximately a year before the Quraysh raised an army to attack them. In 624, Umar participated in the first battle between Muslims and Quraysh of Mecca i.e., the [[Battle of Badr]]. In 625, he took part in the [[Battle of Uhud]]. In the second phase of the battle, when [[Khalid ibn Walid]]'s cavalry attacked the Muslim rear, turning the tide of battle, rumours of Muhammad's death were spread and many Muslim warriors were routed from the battlefield, Umar among them. However, hearing that Muhammad was still alive, he went to Muhammad at the mountain of Uhud and prepared for the defence of the hill.<ref>''Serat-i-Hazrat Umar-i-Farooq'', Mohammad Allias Aadil, pp. 40–41</ref> Later in the year Umar was a part of a campaign against the Jewish tribe of [[Banu Nadir]].
