Salman was [[monotheist]] who converted to [[Christianity]] in his childhood. When he had changed his religion, Salman was forced to leave his hometown. In order to find the truth about Christianity, he started his travels and met a number of priests and bishops in different [[church]]es. When he arrived in [[Syria]], he settled in [[al-Sham]] (Levant), [[Mosul]], and [[Nusaybin]]. Then he was captured as a slave by [[Banu Kalb]] tribe. After some time he was sold to a person from [[Banu Qurayza]] tribe and was taken to [[Medina]]. When he saw [[Muhammad b. 'Abd Allah (s)]], Salman figured out that he was the Prophet that his mentor had described to him. After meeting the Prophet Muhammad (s), Salman converted to [[Islam]]. The Prophet Muhammad (s) bought him and then freed him from slavery. After that Prophet (s) named him Salman. He was such a true Muslim that Prophet (s) once said: "Salman is a member of my [[Ahl al-Bayt]]." | Salman was [[monotheist]] who converted to [[Christianity]] in his childhood.
