The first six Sahaabah of the Khazraj tribe embraced Islam in the 11^th year of prophethood. The following year, which was the 12^th year of prophethood, twelve people came to Makkah Mukarramah to meet Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam).

Five of them were from the first six people (who had come and embraced Islam the previous year), while an additional seven people joined them.

The seven additional people were the following: 

1. Hazrat Mu’aaz bin Haarith (radhiyallahu ‘anhu) – the brother of Hazrat Awf bin Haarith (radhiyallahu ‘anhu)

2. Hazrat Zakwaan bin Abduqays (radhiyallahu ‘anhu)

3. Hazrat Ubaadah bin Saamit (radhiyallahu ‘anhu)

4. Hazrat Yazeed bin Tha’labah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu)

5. Hazrat Abbaas bin Ubaadah bin Nadhlah (radhiyallahu ‘anhu)

6. Hazrat Abul Haytham Maalik bin Tayhaan (radhiyallahu ‘anhu)
