Virtues of al-Muttalib bin Abi Wada'ah al-Sahmi (may Allah be pleased with him)

It is narrated from Mus'ab bin Abdullah that al-Muttalib bin Abi Wada'ah bin Sabirah bin Sa'id bin Sa'd bin Sahm bin Amr bin Husays bin Ka'b bin Lu'ayy bin Ghalib bin Fihr bin Malik accepted Islam on the day of the Conquest of Makkah.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Muttalib bin Abi Wada'ah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prostrate in Surah al-Najm, and all the people prostrated with him (peace and blessings be upon him). Al-Muttalib said: I did not prostrate with them that day, because at that time I was a polytheist. Al-Muttalib (later) used to say: Now (after becoming Muslim) I will never abandon prostrating in this surah.
