Khalid ibn al-Walid is widely considered to have been one of the greatest generals in history. He never lost a battle in his long military career, and defeated two of the greatest empires of his day. For his great success, he earned the title Saif-ullah (The Sword of Allah).

But while he's most famous for his campaigns under the banner of Islam, he started as an enemy of the Muslims. Of course, he later converted to Islam.

But what if he hadn't? How would things be different if Khalid never became a Muslim?
