Summary
Of Banu Tamim, brother of Bishr ibn al-Harith al-Sahmi by his mother; he emigrated to Abyssinia and was killed at Ajnadayn in Abu Bakr's caliphate. 1
In the Abyssinian emigrants chapter
Ibn Ishaq names him "brother" of Bishr ibn al-Harith by his mother, of Banu Tamim, saying he was killed at Ajnadayn in Abu Bakr's caliphate. 1
Source notes and markers of doubt
- Ibn Ishaq says he is of Banu Tamim, "called Sa'id ibn Amr"; the phrase "he is called" flags doubt in the naming.
