حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الْجَهْمِ ثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْفَرَجِ ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ قَالَ

✧ Al-Miqdad b. Amr b. Tha'laba b. Malik b. Rabi'a, and he mentioned up to Quda'a. His kunya was Abu Ma'bad. In the pre-Islamic era he had allied himself with al-Aswad b. Abd Yaghuth al-Zuhri, who adopted him, and he was called al-Miqdad b. al-Aswad. When the Qur'an was revealed: {Call them by their fathers} [al-Ahzab 5], he was called al-Miqdad b. Amr. Al-Miqdad emigrated to Abyssinia in the second emigration according to the narration of Ibn Ishaq. Al-Miqdad witnessed Badr, Uhud, the Trench, and all the battles with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he was one of the noted archers among the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in the Talkhis.
