Bashir ibn Sa'd
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bashir ibn Sa'd (Arabic: بَشِيرٍ بْنُ سَعْدٍ, romanized: Bashīr ibn Saʿd) was one of the companions of Muhammad. He was a member of the Banu Khazraj and later became its leader. He was the first one who pledged of allegiance to the first caliph, Abu Bakr, in a meeting in Saqifa. He wisely handled the situation when there was a huge dispute and division on the matter of succession to Prophet.[1][2]
