Cikakken Tarihi
Abd Allah ibn Abi Awfa al-Aslami was a prominent companion of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from the tribe of Banu Aslam. He participated in multiple military campaigns alongside the Prophet and was known as a reliable narrator of hadith. His father, Abi Awfa, was also a companion, making theirs a family deeply rooted in Islamic history.
He settled in Kufa, Iraq, after the death of the Prophet and became one of the last surviving companions in that region. He transmitted numerous hadiths covering topics of prayer, fasting, and conduct. His long life allowed him to serve as a living link to the prophetic era for later generations of Muslims.
He is reported to have lost his eyesight in old age and passed away in Kufa around 87 AH, making him among the last companions to die in Iraq. His narrations appear in all six major hadith collections, attesting to his reliability and the breadth of his knowledge.
