Aamir bin Abdullah (R.A) is recognized as one of the key military commanders involved in the Islamic conquest of regions that are now part of modern-day Afghanistan. During the era of the Rashidun Caliphate, especially under the leadership of Caliph Umar ibn Al-Khattab (R.A), Muslim armies expanded into Central Asia, including parts of the eastern Persian territories and areas within modern Afghanistan.

The campaigns into Afghanistan were strategic and extended through military operations launched from the eastern provinces of the Sassanid Empire, such as Khorasan and Sistan. Aamir bin Abdullah (R.A), a companion of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), played an important role in leading Muslim forces during this eastern expansion.

The spread of Islam into Afghanistan was gradual and began with initial military expeditions followed by sustained preaching, administration, and settlement. Cities like Herat, Kandahar, and Kabul gradually came under Muslim control, and Islamic governance began to establish roots in the region.
