Ibn Amr Zin Nurayn Tufail Dausi

Ibn Amar was one of the noble companions. Nabi (SAW) prayed for him regarding his whip.The whip used to give him light and he used to make use of it only for light. One tradition says that he asked Nabi (SAW) for a sign so that he may use it in helping to convince his community to embrace Islam. Nabi (SAW) prayed, “Oh Allah create for him a sign!” Ibn Amar says I went towards my people when I was close to my habitation a light appeared between my eyes like a lamp. Recognising this was the sign I prayed to Allah “May this light be somewhere else instead of my face”, as I was afraid that my people would consider this light to be a loss of an aspect of my face in punishment for having given up my creed.

So the light was moved to the end of my whip. People who saw it began to point it out to one another. It was at the end of my whip like a hanging lamp. (Hayatus Sahabah)
