It is narrated from Khalifah bin Khayyat that: Yazid bin Thabit bin al-Dahhak bin Zayd bin Lawdhan bin Amr bin Awf bin Ghanm bin Malik bin al-Najjar; his mother and the mother of his brother Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) was al-Nawar bint Malik bin Adi bin Amir bin Adi bin al-Najjar. He took part in the Battle of Badr and was martyred on the day of the Battle of Yamamah.

Kharijah bin Zayd bin Thabit narrates from his paternal uncle Yazid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) that: He was with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions when a funeral procession appeared. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw it, he (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and his Companions stood up too, and they all remained standing until the funeral had passed out of sight. And I think it was (the funeral of) a Jewish man or woman.
