Badr

Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf (c. 580-652 CE) was among the earliest converts to Islam and one of the Ten Promised Paradise. A renowned merchant who built great wealth in Medina and gave lavishly in charity, he served on the council that chose the third caliph, Uthman.

Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib (d. 625 CE), paternal uncle and foster-brother of Prophet Muhammad, was among the strongest defenders of the early Muslim community in Mecca and was killed at the Battle of Uhud. His killer's own account of the day is preserved in Sahih al-Bukhari.
