[Machine] I was the companion of Al-Miqdad ibn Al-Aswad during the period of Jahiliyyah. He was a man from Bahrā'. He shed blood among them, so he fled to Kindah and swore allegiance to them. Then he shed blood among them, so he fled to Makkah and swore allegiance to Al-Aswad ibn 'Abd Yaghooth.  

الطبراني:١٧٧٥٦ – حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزِّنْبَاعِ رَوْحُ بْنُ الْفَرَجِ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ ثنا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِمَاسَةَ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ صَهْبَانَةَ الْمَهْرِيِّ قَالَ

«كُنْتُ صَاحِبَ الْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَكَانَ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَهْرَاءَ فَأَصَابَ فِيهِمْ دَمًا فَهَرَبَ إِلَى كِنْدَةَ فَحَالَفَهُمْ ثُمَّ أَصَابَ فِيهِمْ دَمًا فَهَرَبَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَحَالَفَ الْأَسْوَدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ»

[Machine] "I used to be a friend of Al-Miqdad ibn Al-Aswad during the pre-Islamic era. He was involved in fighting, so he escaped to Kindah and swore allegiance to them. Then he got into a fight with them and fled to Makkah, where he swore allegiance to Al-Aswad ibn Abdul Yaghouth. That is why he is attributed to them."

«كُنْتُ صَاحِبًا لِلْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَأَصَابَ فِيهِمْ دَمًا فَهَرَبَ إِلَى كِنْدَةَ فَحَالَفَهُمْ ثُمَّ أَصَابَ مِنْهُمْ دَمًا فَهَرَبَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَحَالَفَ الْأَسْوَدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ يَغُوثَ فَلِذَلِكَ نُسِبَ إِلَيْهِ»
