He witnessed both pledges of Aqaba and the battles of Badr and Uhud, and was among those who gathered the Qur'an in the Prophet's lifetime. Umar ibn al-Khattab (may God be pleased with him) sent him to Syria as a teacher and judge; he died there at about seventy-two.

Abu al-Walid Ubada ibn al-Samit (may God be pleased with him) ibn Qays al-Ansari al-Khazraji was one of the chiefs and great jurists of Banu Awf and among the first of Yathrib to pledge to the Prophet ﷺ. He attended the first Aqaba pledge with twelve men — he narrates its wording in the two Sahihs — then the second as naqib of Banu Awf; he witnessed Badr, Uhud and every scene with the Prophet, and was among those who gathered the Qur'an in his lifetime. Under Umar he was sent to Syria as teacher and judge and settled there; he died at Ramla or Jerusalem under Mu'awiya, at about seventy-two. Historians present him as the field jurist: early pledge, Qur'an gathering, and judgeship in the provinces.
