Safwan bin Muattal
Safwan bin Muattal
Ṣafwān ibn al-Muʿaṭṭal al-Sulamī was a sahabi (companion) of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and an Arab commander in the Muslim conquests. He was one of the first members of the Banu Sulaym to embrace Islam. He was accused, allegedly by the poet Abd-Allah ibn Ubayy, of having an affair with Muhammad's wife Aisha after the two became separated from a Medina-bound caravan. Later, Safwan became a commander and moved from Medina to Basra during the Muslim conquest of that region. Afterward, he took part in the military campaigns against the Byzantines in al-Jazira and Armenia, where he is said to have been slain. However, other reports mention that he died decades later as governor of Armenia.
