Al-Miqdad ibn al-Aswad al-Kindi
The First Horseman of Islam
نبی ﷺ کے ساتھ تعلق
Al-Miqdad's relationship with the Prophet was among the most devoted. He was one of the first six to embrace Islam and shared every hardship of the early period with the Prophet. His speech at Badr so moved the Prophet that tears ran down his blessed face. Al-Miqdad's unconditional loyalty and early sacrifice gave him an honoured and intimate place in the prophetic community.

مکمل سوانح حیات
Al-Miqdad ibn al-Aswad al-Kindi was among the earliest converts to Islam and holds the historic distinction of being the first Muslim horseman to fight in the path of Allah. He migrated to Abyssinia with the first group of Muslim emigrants and later returned to Medina. He was among the six companions who adopted Islam in the very early period before any groups had formed.
At the Battle of Badr, al-Miqdad delivered one of the most celebrated speeches of early Islamic history when the Prophet consulted the companions. While others were cautious, al-Miqdad said: 'O Messenger of Allah, go where Allah commands — we will not say to you as Banu Israel said to Musa: go you and your Lord and fight, we shall stay here. We say: go you and your Lord and fight and we will fight with you!' This declaration of unconditional commitment moved the Prophet to tears and became immortalised in Islamic tradition. He passed away around 33 AH.
