Biography[]
He paid his ransom after Badr, but was killed outside of the battlefield from a small scratch on his neck which happened during the Battle of Uhud (625 CE) when the prophet Muhammed threw a spear in his direction out of defence. Verse [Quran 8:17] was revealed in this occasion.[1] He is the only person in the history of Islam whose death has been linked to the prophet Muhammed.
