Jubair b. Mut'im reported the Prophet as saying about the prisoners taken at Badr,“If al-Mut‘im b. ‘Adi* had been alive and spoken to me about these filthy ones, I would have left them for him.”* He was head of the B. Naufal. He agreed to give Muhammad protection after his return from at-Ta'if where he had gone after Abu Talib’s death. Al-Mut‘im died before the battle of Badr. He did not become a Muslim. Bukhari transmitted it.
