Imam al-Tabarani says: This is Sayyiduna al-Mughirah Abu Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) bin al-Harith bin Abd al-Muttalib bin Hashim. He accepted Islam on the occasion of the Conquest of Makkah; he had met the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on the way. He was among those who stood firm with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at the Battle of Hunayn. He passed away in 20 AH.

Sayyiduna Abu Habbah al-Badri (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: At the Battle of Hunayn, in whichever direction the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) looked, he saw Sayyiduna Abu Sufyan bin al-Harith (may Allah be pleased with him) fighting. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed Abu Sufyan is the best of my family. (The narrator is unsure, or perhaps the words are:) Indeed Abu Sufyan is one of the best of my family."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its chain is hasan (good).
