From Warlike
Q135005485
The Umayyad invasions of Egypt (657–658) were a series of raids and military expeditions ordered by Mu'awiya I and led by Amr ibn al-As, against the fourth Rashidun caliph Ali ibn Abi Talib's control over Egypt, which was being ruled by his governor Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr. The Umayyad forces swiftly defeated the forces of Ali, led by Muhammad, resulting in the annexation of Egypt by Mu'awiya and the reinstatement of Amr as its governor.
