A book in English confirms that Khalid ibn Al-Waleed was one of the greatest generals in history and heroes of Islam. Besides him, Genghis Khan was the only other general to remain undefeated in his entire military life. This book was written by the late Lieutenant-General A. I. Akram of the Pakistan Army in Oct. 1969. The author learned the Arabic language to draw on the earliest historical sources and visited every one of Khalid’s battlefields to draw analyses from the viewpoint of military strategy, including reconciliation of the conflicting historians’ accounts. This book was originally published by the Army Education Press, Rawalpindi, Pakistan, and printed by Feroze Sons Publishers in Lahore, Pakistan. It is characterized by translating from English into Arabic so it is currently sold in bookshops throughout the Arab World.
