2. ABU UBAIDAH IBN JARRAH
Mentioned with the sobriquet “Custodian of the Ummah,” he is one of the first Muslims and one of the Ashara Mubashara. His original name was Amir ibn Abdullah ibn al-Jarrah. He is the Banu Fihr of the Quraish tribe. His genealogy connects with the Prophet’s genealogy in their forefather Fihr.
He was famous with the sobriquet of “Custodian of the Ummah.”
Abu Ubaidah became Muslim by means of Abu Bakr’s invitation or by going to the Prophet with his friends under the leadership of Uthman ibn Maz. He was among the second convoy of immigrants to Abyssinia. Like the other great Companions, Abu Ubaidah participated in all the military expeditions. He was always at the Prophet’s side in the conquest of Mecca, the siege of Taif, and the Farewell Pilgrimage. During the jihad activities in Umar’s time Abu Ubaidah ibn Jarrah participated in the conquests in the Syria region which began during Abu Bakr’s caliphate, and he served as a commander.
He fell ill during the plague in Syria, Egypt and Iraq, which is historically called the Amwas Tauna, and passed away.
