Muawwidh ibn Afra was a young Ansari warrior who fought at the Battle of Badr alongside his brother Muadh and was martyred there. He is most celebrated for striking the decisive blow against Abu Jahl, the fierce enemy of Islam, alongside his brother, both attacking the Qurayshi leader before he was finished off by Abd Allah ibn Mas'ud.
