However, there is a historical side to this city.Tabuk is a silent witness to the war of the Muslims against the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) troops around October 630 or 9 of the Hijriyah year.
In this war, the Prophet Muhammad himself led the troops.At that time, Tabuk was experiencing scorching heat and supplies were running low.Physical war had not yet occurred, because the Roman troops withdrew first and offered a peace treaty.

wrote, the conflict between Muslims and Romans had begun since the killing of the Prophet Muhammad’s ambassador named Al-Harits bin Umair at the hands of Syurahbil bin Amr al-Ghassani.After the killing of Al-Harits, Rasulullah sent troops under the leadership of Zaid bin Harith to attack the Roman troops at Mu’tah.
After the war, it turned out that a number of Arab tribes began to break away from the Roman Qaishar and join the Muslims.Realizing this, the Romans immediately took a stand before the Muslims actually became a very strong army and were difficult to defeat.
The Roman Empire then prepared a large force to destroy the Muslim troops.It turns out that news of the planned attack reached the ears of Muslims, although it was still vague.
Realizing that Rome was the most feared giant empire of its time, made the Muslim community in Medina restless.Worried that suddenly the Romans would come to attack them and destroy Medina.
After confirming that the Romans would attack, the Muslim army moved towards Tabuk with 30,000 soldiers, 10,000 fewer than the number of Roman soldiers.
It was at this moment that many Muslims received donations, including friends of the Prophet himself such as Abu Bakar As-Sidiq and Umar bin Khatab.Meanwhile, the Prophet himself entrusted his family in Medina to Ali bin Abi Talib.
It turns out that the troops led by the Prophet Muhammad achieved victory even without bloodshed.The Romans offered peace with a number of tributes and the Muslim troops achieved success, because the Arab tribes, some of whom supported the Romans, turned their backs.
