Özet:

The first contact between the Arabs and the Caspian Sea dates back to the time of Rashid Khalifa, Omar bin Khattab (634-644). Conventional, the relations between Arabs and Khazars can be divided into military-political, religious-cultural and economic relations, the active period of military-political relations coincided with the first 60 years of the 642-656, 681-737, and the Abbasid caliphate (750-1258) is. From the era of Khalifa Aaron (786-809), the economic relations between the parties have developed much more. The Arab-Khazar conflict took place after the Arab armies captured many Azerbaijani cities, including the Derbent, peacefully.In the medieval Arabic sources, much information was given about the Arabs who attacked the khanate. The Arab invasion into Balandjar in 643 led by the famous military commander Salman bin Rabiah caused the Arab-Khazar wars. Most of the Azerbaijani people suffered because of military operations mainly in Azerbaijan and adjacent territories. The period of Arab-Khazars wars coincides mainly with the Abyssites (661-750). This period can be considered as the first part of the Khazar-Turkish statehood. We can characterize this period as the emergence, consolidation of the Khazar state, the expansion of its territory, and, most importantly, a powerful force capable of preventing the northern invasion of an empire armed with powerful ideological weapons such as the Arab Caliphate
