“I used to guide my father after he lost his sight, and when I took him out for the Friday (prayer), when he heard the Adhan he would pray for forgiveness for Abu Umamah As’ad bin Zurarah, and supplicate for him. I heard that from him for a while, then I said to myself: ‘By Allah! What is this weakness? Every time he heard the Adhan for Friday (prayer) I hear him praying for forgiveness for Abu Umamah and supplicate for him, and I do not ask him about why he does that.’ Then I took him out for Friday (prayer), as I used to take him out, and when he heard the Adhan he prayed for forgiveness as he used to do. I said to him: ‘O my father! I see you supplicating for As’ad bin Zurarah every time you hear the call for Friday; why is that?’ He said: ‘O my son, he was the first one who led us for the Friday prayer before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came from Makkah, in Naqi’ Al- Khadamat (a place near Al-Madinah), in the plain of Harrah Banu Bayadah.’ I asked: ‘How many of you were there at that time?’ He said: ‘Forty men.’”

[Machine] He informed me that he said, "I was the leader after my father lost his sight. He could not hear the call to prayer on Fridays except that he said, 'May the mercy of Allah be upon As'ad ibn Zurara.' So I said after a while, 'If I ask my father what his situation is when he hears the call to prayer, he says, 'May the mercy of Allah be upon As'ad ibn Zurara.' So I said, 'Oh father, I am amazed by your prayer upon Abu Umamah every time you hear the call to prayer on Fridays.' He said, 'Oh my son, he was the first to gather us for Friday prayer in Madinah after the defeat of the Hawazim tribe of Bani Bayadah in the area known as Al-Khadimah.' I asked, 'And how many of you were there that day?' He said, 'Forty men.' Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in his summarized version."

[Machine] I was the leader of my father when his eyesight deteriorated, so I went with him to the Friday prayer. When he heard the call to prayer, he prayed for Abu Umamah As'ad bin Zurarah and sought forgiveness for him. So I stayed for a long time without hearing the call to Friday prayer until he did that. So I said, "Oh father, do you see your seeking forgiveness for Abu Umamah every time you hear the call to Friday prayer?" He said, "O my son, he was the first one to gather with us in Madinah during the Battle of Khandaq from the tribe of Banu Bayadah, which is called Naqiyah Al-Khadamat." I said, "How many were you that day?" He said, "Forty men."

[Machine] I was the leader of my father when his sight failed. Whenever I went out to Friday prayers, he would hear the call to prayer and seek forgiveness for Ummamah As'ad ibn Zurarah. So I would stay for a while to hear that from him. I said to myself, there is nothing stopping me from asking him about this. So I went out with him as I usually do. When he heard the call to prayer for Friday, he sought forgiveness for him. So I said, "Oh my father, have you noticed that you seek forgiveness for As'ad ibn Zurarah every time you hear the call to prayer for Friday?" He said, "Oh my son, As'ad was the first one of us to gather in Medina before the arrival of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the battle of Hurrah of Bani Bayadah in Naki' Al-Khadimah. I said, how many were you that day? He said, forty men."
