(Friday Sermon - October 12, 2018 )

Background, Participation in Battles and Martyrdom

Ibn Ishaq and Zuhri, two historians, have traced Hazrat Thabit bin Amr bin Zaid’s lineage to Banu Najjar, whereas Ibn Mundah traced it to the Banu Ashja tribe who were the confederate of the Ansar. He participated in the Battle of Badr and attained martyrdom in the Battle of Uhud. (Usdul Ghaba Fi Marifati Al-Sahaba, Vol. 1, p. 449, Thabit bin Amr bin Zaid, Dar-ul-Kutub Al-ilmiyya, Beirut)
