Bearer of the Red Headband
Uhusiano na Mtume ﷺ
The Prophet trusted Abu Dujanah with his own sword, a gesture of profound confidence in his warrior spirit. Abu Dujanah's act of shielding the Prophet at Uhud remains one of the most celebrated expressions of Ansari devotion.

Wasifu Kamili
Abu Dujanah Simak ibn Kharasha was among the bravest warriors of the Ansar, famously known for the red headband he wore to signal his readiness to fight to the death. At the Battle of Uhud the Prophet offered his sword to whoever could wield it with its right, and Abu Dujanah stepped forward and proved himself worthy. He shielded the Prophet with his own body during the chaos at Uhud, taking arrows in his back rather than letting them reach the Prophet, and was later martyred at the Battle of Yamama.
