I had intended for the timeline to start in June or July originally, so to place it just before the death of Abu Bakr, but it looks like I failed to mention that. So really, it now depends on consensus. If everyone wants the date changed, i'll comply. Also, I know that a lot of the details about who invaded what and when are sort of smudged here, but I had to leave them smudged so that we could have an RP where all the invasions sort of happen at the same time. I figured we can lampshade it with the butterfly effect for the sake of gameplay. And Jabiyah... yeh, I realized when I started writing the first post that the map puts the location of Al Jabiyah in Roman territory. The regions drawn onto the map are because I used a blank Crusader Kings II map as the base and just painted in the factions, so it is not necessarily the most accurate, at least in terms of precision. It would take a bit more effort to make a precise map, and I am too lazy for that, so take the exactness of its borders with a grain of salt.
