68. THE ARRIVAL OF THE DELEGATION OF FARWAH IBN ‘AMR ALJUDHAMI
The arrival of the delegation of farwah ibn ‘amr aljudhami, the sovereign of the land of mu‘an, to declare his islam
Ibn Ishaq said: Farwah Ibn ‘Amr Ibn An-Nafirah Al-Judhami and An-Nufathi sent envoys to Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, conveying his acceptance of Islam and he sent as a gift a white mule. He was a representative of Rome in charge of the adjacent Arab territories. His residence was at Mu‘an and the surrounding areas in the territory of Syria. When Rome became aware of his acceptance of Islam they sought him out until they apprehended him and detained him. When the Romans gathered to crucify him by one of their watering place known as ‘Ifra at Palestine he said:
Alas, has it reached Salma that her spouse Is by the oasis of ‘Ifra on top a gallows On a camel whose mother has not been mated by a male Whose edges have been pruned by a sickle Az-Zuhri claims that when he was brought for execution, he said: Convey to the leaders of the Muslims that I have surrendered to my Lord, my bones and my position.
Then they beheaded him and crucified him in that water. May bAllah have Mercy and be pleased with him, and make him pleased and make Paradise his final abode.
