Salama said, "I gave the Pledge of allegiance (Al-Ridwan) to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and then I moved to the shade of a tree. When the number of people around the Prophet ﷺ diminished, he said, 'O Ibn Al-Akwaʿ ! Will you not give to me the pledge of Allegiance?' I replied, 'O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I have already given to you the pledge of Allegiance.' He said, 'Do it again.' So I gave the pledge of allegiance for the second time." I asked 'O Abu Muslim! For what did you give he pledge of Allegiance on that day?" He replied, "We gave the pledge of Allegiance for death."
بَايَعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ ثُمَّ عَدَلْتُ إِلَى ظِلِّ الشَّجَرَةِ فَلَمَّا خَفَّ النَّاسُ قَالَ يَا ابْنَ الأَكْوَعِ أَلاَ تُبَايِعُ قَالَ قُلْتُ قَدْ بَايَعْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ وَأَيْضًا فَبَايَعْتُهُ الثَّانِيَةَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا أَبَا مُسْلِمٍ عَلَى أَىِّ شَىْءٍ كُنْتُمْ تُبَايِعُونَ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ
