===Second Hijra 622Heraclius Liberates Cappadocia=== In the 660s, Sebeos tells us that when Heraclius captured Edessa in 622 the Jews fleeing from Edessa claimed asylum in the new Medina (Hatra) but initially failed to win any allies to their cause until Judaizing the Ishmaelites into HaGarim on the ideas of a learned Mahmet scholar who arrived in the New Medina later that year. Thus this became the year the Believers (Jews, Nestorians and Sabians) settled their case. The first year of the Arabs.
