It is narrated from Sayyiduna Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) that among those of Banu Hashim bin Abd Manaf who took part in the Battle of Badr was Sayyiduna Abu Kabshah (may Allah be pleased with him), the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Mention of the virtues of Sayyiduna Tulayb bin Umayr bin Wahb bin Kathir bin Abd bin Qusayy (may Allah be pleased with him), whose kunyah was Abu Adi. According to all the biographers he was among the emigrants to Abyssinia. He took part in the Battle of Badr, and he was martyred in Syria at the Battle of Ajnadayn in Jumada al-Ula, 13 AH, at the age of thirty-five.

Muhammad bin Umar, on the authority of his shaykhs, confirms all of these details.

It is narrated from Abu Salamah bin Abd al-Rahman that Sayyiduna Tulayb bin Umayr (may Allah be pleased with him) accepted Islam in the house of al-Arqam. Then he went to his mother, Arwa bint Abd al-Muttalib (who was the paternal aunt of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)), and said: I have followed Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and have submitted to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. His mother said: Truly, your maternal uncle's son (Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)) is the most deserving of your help and support. By Allah! If we had the ability to do what men are able to do, we too would follow him and defend him. Tulayb says: I said: O my mother! What is stopping you from accepting Islam and following him?! Your brother Hamzah (may Allah be pleased with him) has already accepted Islam. She said: I will see what my sisters do, then I will be one of them. Tulayb said: I ask you by Allah to go to him, greet him with salam, affirm his truthfulness, and bear witness that there is no god but Allah. Arwa said: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Thereafter she used to support the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with her tongue, and would urge her son to help him (peace and blessings be upon him) and to carry out his commands. This hadith is sahih gharib on the condition of Imam Bukhari, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

Mention of Sayyiduna Amr bin Sa'id bin al-As bin Umayyah bin Abd Shams bin Abd Manaf (may Allah be pleased with him).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin Sa'id bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Khalid bin Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) accepted Islam, and his father Abu Uhayhah treated him as he did (harshly), he still did not turn back from his religion and stayed close to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). His father's son Amr bin Sa'id, however, was (still) on his father's religion; then, when Amr accepted Islam, he joined his brother Khalid in the land of Abyssinia, together with his wife Fatimah bint Safwan bin Umayyah.

Sayyidah Umm Khalid bint Khalid (may Allah be pleased with her) relates: My uncle Amr bin Sa'id came to us in Abyssinia two years after my father's arrival, and he remained there until he set sail in the ships with the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). They reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at Khaybar in the year 7 AH. Amr then took part with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the Conquest of Makkah, Hunayn, Ta'if and Tabuk. Then, when the armies set out for Syria, he went out with them, and he was martyred at the Battle of Ajnadayn in Jumada al-Ula, 13 AH, during the caliphate of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him). The commander of the people on that day was Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him).

Al-Asma'i relates that Sayyiduna Khalid bin Sa'id, Aban bin Sa'id and Amr bin Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with them) were among those who were foremost in accepting Islam, while their two other brothers, Uhayhah and al-As (the sons of Sa'id bin al-As), were killed as disbelievers on the day of Badr. Both of them were killed by Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him), as has already been mentioned in the account of Khalid bin Sa'id. Mention of the virtues of Sayyiduna Hisham bin al-As bin Wa'il al-Sahmi (may Allah be pleased with him):

Khalifah bin Khayyat relates that the mother of Sayyiduna Hisham bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) was Harmalah bint Hisham bin al-Mughirah bin Abdullah bin Umar bin Makhzum.

Muhammad bin Umar narrates from his shaykhs that Sayyiduna Hisham bin al-As bin Wa'il bin Hashim bin Su'ayd bin Sahm (may Allah be pleased with him), whose mother was Harmalah bint Hisham bin al-Mughirah, was an early Muslim in Makkah, before his brother Amr bin al-As. He emigrated to the land of Abyssinia, and when news reached him of the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) emigration to Madinah, he came back to Makkah in order to join him, but his father and his people detained him in Makkah, until he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in Madinah after the Battle of the Trench. After that he took part in all the battles. He was younger in age than his brother Amr bin al-As.

It is narrated from Khalid bin Ma'dan that when the Romans were defeated on the day of Ajnadayn, they reached a narrow place through which people could only pass one by one. The Romans began fighting there (turning back), while some had already passed through it. At that point Sayyiduna Hisham bin al-As bin Wa'il (may Allah be pleased with him) advanced and fought them at that spot until he was martyred. This happened at the beginning of the caliphate of Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), in the year 13 AH.
