Biografía completa
Amr ibn al-Tufayl al-Dawsi was the son of the famous companion Tufayl ibn Amr al-Dawsi, who brought the Daws tribe to Islam. Amr grew up in a household shaped by prophetic companionship and the extraordinary da'wah journey of his father. He accepted Islam as part of the great Daws migration to Medina, where the family joined the Prophet's community.
Amr participated in the military campaigns of early Islam and carried his father's legacy of courage and commitment. He was martyred at the Battle of Yamama in 11 AH, fighting the false prophet Musaylima alongside his father — both father and son dying as martyrs in the same battle, a testament to a family's total dedication to the Islamic cause. Their joint martyrdom became one of the moving stories of the Ridda Wars.
