And yet, do we even have any evidence that this battle between the Byzantines and the Sahabah actually took place? I'd love to see it. I don't recall the Byzantines writing about any such battle. I hope it's not another fabrication (like Mecca being as old as the Pyramids of Egypt).

Isn't that Robert Spencer's website? I guess he's knowledgeable, but he's banned from the UK because the goverment considers him to be "unsavoury". I'm not sure how I feel about him personally; I think he could be too anti-immigrant for me (if he's not be please correct me as I haven't consumed any of his content for many, many years).
