Description

The martyrdom of Sayyiduna Hadrat Mus'ab ibn Umayr (Radiyallahu Anhu) رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْهُ at the Battle of Uhud while carrying the banner of Islam. Once the wealthiest young man of Makkah, he gave up everything for Islam. The Prophet sent him as the first ambassador/teacher to Madinah before the Hijrah, where he successfully taught Islam to the Ansar. He was so poor when he died that his burial shroud was too short — it was covered with idhkhir grass.
