He participated in the secret Second pledged at al-Aqabah. It was not after that the Medinan pilgrims had left the city, that the Meccans became aware of the meeting at Aqabah. They pursued the pilgrims but only managed to catch hold of Sa‘d bin ‘Ubadah. They tortured him, but he was later rescued by Al-Mut‘im bin ‘Adi and Harith ibn Harb, with whom he had trade relations .

He died during the Succession to Muhammad. [ [http://www.al-shia.com/html/eng/books/beliefs/root-of-the-religion/ror27.htm Lesson Twenty-Seven ] ] :
