The Deputation of Ghamid
Volume 1, Parts II.74.78
He (Ibn Sa’d) said: Muhammad Ibn ‘Umar informed us, he said: More
than one scholar related to me; they said:
A deputation of the Ghamid came before the Apostle of Allah, may Allah
bless him, in the month of Ramadan. They were ten persons and they
stayed at Bagial-Gharqad. There they put on fine clothes and went to the Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him. They greeted him and admitted of their (conversion to) Islam. The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, wrote an epistle for them containing the regulations (Sharái)
of Islam. They came to Ubayyi Ibn Ka’b who taught them the Qur’an.
The Apostle of Allah, may Allah bless him, rewarded them as he used to
reward the members of the deputations.
