Mention of the virtues of Sayyiduna al-Muhajir bin Qunfudh (may Allah be pleased with him). It is narrated from Mus'ab bin Abdullah that al-Muhajir was the son of Qunfudh bin Umayr bin Jud'an, of Quraysh, of the clan of Taym bin Murrah. His father Qunfudh bin Umayr was one of the nobles of Quraysh, who used to be called "Sharib al-Dhahab" (the drinker of gold, or: exceedingly generous). His mother was Hind bint al-Harith. Al-Muhajir went to Basrah and passed away there.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Muhajir bin Qunfudh (may Allah be pleased with him); he said: I passed by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was performing ablution. I greeted him with salam, but he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not respond. Then, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished the ablution, he returned my greeting and, apologising to me, said: "Nothing prevented me from returning your greeting except that I disliked mentioning the name of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, without being in a state of purity."
