Arbad ibn HumayrahArbad ibn Humayrah (Arabic: أربد بن حميرة, romanized: Arbad ibn Ḥumayrah) known by his Kunya Abu Mahsiy, is a Companion of the Prophet from Banu Asad ibn Khuzaymah. Muslim historians disagree regarding his name. Ibn Hisham[1] and al-Shaybani said his name is Arbad ibn Humayyar or Arbad ibn Hamzah. Ibn Sa'd arguing his name instead was Abu Mahsiy Suwaid ibn Adi.[2] Before moving to Medina, Arbad once sought refugee in Abyssinia.[3] Arbad arrived in Medina with Ukasha ibn al-Mihsan, Uqbah ibn Wahab, Shu'ja ibn Wahab, Munqiz ibn Nubatah, and many others.[4] Arbad participated in the Battle of Badr.[2] See alsoReferences
