In brief· the site’s own summary, not the book’s words

The book lists other events of 5 A.H.: Haj was made fardh (it notes that there are other views), Ruqayya's رضي الله عنها (may Allah be pleased with her) son Abdullah bin Uthmaan رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away, Aaishah's رضي الله عنها (may Allah be pleased with her) mother passed away, Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) married Zaynub bint Jahsh رضي الله عنها (may Allah be pleased with her), and there was an earth tremor and a lunar eclipse. After the Battle of Ahzaab, Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) went against the Banu Quraizah for breaking their agreement, and after twenty-five days in their fort they asked that Sa'd bin Mu'aaz رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him), leader of the Ows, decide their fate. He judged them by the Jewish law: their fighting men were to be killed, their women and children taken as slaves, and their wealth shared among the Muslims. The book adds that three more battles took place that year, but fighting happened only at Banul-Mustaliq, which the Muslims won.

Accounts differThe book says Haj was made fardh in 5 A.H. and adds: “(Although there are other views.)” In episode 84 it says only that Haj was fardh before 10 A.H.

Haj was made fardh (compulsory) in this year. (Although there are other views.)
In Jumad-ul-Ula, Nabi’s ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) grandson Abdullah bin Uthmaan رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away. He was Hadhrat Ruqayya’s رضي الله عنها (may Allah be pleased with her) son.
Towards the end of Shawwaal, Hadhrat Aaishah’s رضي الله عنها (may Allah be pleased with her) mother passed away
In Zil-Qa’dah, Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) married Hadhrat Zaynub bint Jahsh رضي الله عنها (may Allah be pleased with her).
There was a tremor in Madinah.
There was a lunar eclipse (the moon came between the sun and the earth).

We have read that the tribe of Banu Quraizah joined the disbelievers in the Battle of Ahzaab and broke their agreement with ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him). After the battle of Ahzaab, ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) attacked them. They sought refuge in their fort for twenty-five days. Eventually, they became helpless and requested Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) to appoint the leader of the Ows Sa’d bin Mu`aaz رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) to decide their fate and they would accept whatever decision he made. Hadhrat Sa’d bin Mu’aaz رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) passed the decision in accordance to the Jewish law:

(a) Those men who can fight must be killed
(b) Their women and children must be taken as slaves
(c) Their wealth should be distributed amongst the Muslims

Three other battles, besides the Battle of Khandaq and the battle against the Banu Quraizah, were also fought during this year. They were:

Zat-ur-Riqaa’
Dowma-tul-Jundul
Banul-Mustaliq

However, fighting only took place in the battle of Banul-Mustaliq and Allah ﷻ (exalted is His majesty) granted the Muslims victory.
