After pledging allegiance at the blessed hand of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam), the caravan of the Ansaar departed from Makkah Mukarramah. On arriving in Madinah Munawwarah, they openly proclaimed their conversion to Islam.

At that time, most of the tribes of Madinah Munawwarah had already embraced Islam, although there were still a few elderly people who were obstinately clinging onto their ancient ways of idolatry with strong determination. Among them was Amr bin Jamooh, the leader of the Banu Salimah tribe. His son, Hazrat Mu’aaz bin Amr bin Jamooh (radhiyallahu ‘anhu), had just returned from Makkah Mukarramah after pledging his allegiance at the blessed hand of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam).
