(Friday Sermon - October 12, 2018 )

Background and Participation in the Battle of Badr

Musa bin Uqbah writes that Hazrat Wahab bin Abi Sarh fought in the Battle of Badr alongside his brother Amr. Haitham bin Adiyy has included him amongst those who migrated to Abyssinia but some hold the view, such as Balazuri, that there is no evidence to this i.e. he only participated in the Battle of Badr and there is no mention of his migration to Abyssinia. (Al-Asaba fi Tameez Al-Sahaba, Vol. 6, p. 489, Wahab bin Abi Surrah, Dar-ul-Kutb Al-ilimiyya, Beirut, 2005)
