Battle of Badr 22 Meccans, while the rest of the Muslims combined killed 27 Meccans. Muhammad was born in Mecca around 570 CE into the Quraish tribe. After Muhammad's revelation from Gabriel in 610 until his proclamation of monotheism to the Quraysh, Islam was practiced primarily in secret. The Quraiysh, who traditionally accepted religious practices other than their own, became increasingly more intolerant of the Muslims during the thirteen years of personal attacks against their (the Meccans) religions and gods. In fear for their religion and economic viability, which heavily relied on annual pilgrimages, the Meccans began to mock and disrupt Muhammad's followers.
Battle of Karbala 14th Rabi' al-awwal of 65 AH, Mukhtar's followers began the revolt by shouting "Ya Mansur-o Amet" (O victorious, make [them] die!), a slogan originally used by Muslims in battle of Badr, and "Ya Lisarat al-Husayn" (O Those Who Want to Avenge the Blood of Husayn). Forces allied with Mukhtar entered Kufah. Iranian forces called "Jond-o-l Hamra'a" (Red Army) were the core of Mukhtar's forces. Finally, Mukhtar captured Ibn Ziyad's palace and announced the victory of his uprising on the following day, when he led prayers in a mosque, as well as holding a lecture regarding the goals of his uprising.
