Then Nufail ibn Khash’ami blocked his way with the people of his tribe in Khash’am area. But in the battle he was defeated and captured.

Then in 570 AD he set out for Mecca with 60,000 infantry, 13 elephants (according to another description, 9 elephants). When the news reached Abrahah that the worshipers of the Kaaba had insulted his church, he swore, “I will not sit still until the Kaaba has been crushed to the ground.” He thought that he could succeed in attacking Mecca and destroying the Quraish and terrorizing the entire Arab world. According to Muhammad ibn Ishaq, after completing this work, he wrote to the king of Abyssinia, saying, “I will not stop the Hajj of the Arabs from returning to the San’ar church instead of the Ka’bah of Mecca.”
Arab historians refer to it as ‘Al Qalis’ or ‘Al Qulis’ or ‘Al Qullis’. He built a huge church in Sana’a, the capital of Yemen.
