Khalifah bin Khayyat says that the name of Abu Jandal bin Suhayl bin Amr was Abdullah bin Suhayl. His mother's name was Fakhitah, who was from Banu Nawfal. He was present at Badr, and was at that time with the polytheists, but when they reached Badr he fled from there and joined the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He was martyred in the Battle of Yamamah. Imam al-Hakim says: His death is recorded like this in the history of Khalifah bin Khayyat, but I think he was mistaken about the time of his death.
