[Machine] After the Battle of Uhud, a group of people from Adl and Qaratah came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, there are some of us who have embraced Islam. Please send some of your companions with us to teach us the religion, recite the Quran to us, and teach us the laws of Islam." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent six of his companions, including Marthad bin Abi Marthad Al-Ghanawi, the ally of Hamza bin Abdul-Muttalib. Marthad mentioned the story and said, "As for Marthad bin Abi Marthad, Khalid bin Al-Bukayr, and Asim bin Thabit, they said, "By Allah, we will never accept any covenant or agreement from a polytheist." So they fought them until they killed them.

[Machine] Some people from the tribe of Adal and Qara'a, who were considered the emissaries of Jadila, came to the Prophet ﷺ after the Battle of Uhud and said, "We have accepted Islam in our land, so please send some of your companions to teach us the Quran and educate us about Islam." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent six people with them, including Marthad ibn Abi Marthad, the ally of Hamza ibn Abdul-Muttalib, who was their leader, Khalid ibn Al-Bukayr Al-Laithi, the ally of Bani Adi, Abdullah ibn Tarik Al-Zafri , Zaid ibn Dathina, Hubayb ibn Adi, and Asim ibn Thabit ibn Abi Al-Aflah. They left with their leader, Marthad ibn Abi Marthad, and when they were returning, they were attacked by a group led by Hudhail. The people had swords in their hands, so Hudhail tried to deceive them, but the people took out their swords and prepared to fight. They said, "O Allah, we don't want to kill you, but we want to take some of the people of Makkah as captives." They reminded them of the covenant and agreement they had made with Allah. So Asim, Marthad, and Khalid fought until they were killed, and they said, "By Allah, we will never accept a treaty or contract with a polytheist."
