'''Abū Umāma, Asʿad b. Zurāra''' (Arabic: {{iarabic|ابوامامة اَسْعَد بن زُرارة}}), (d. [[1]]/623) was a [[sahaba]], and among the first people of [[Yathrib]] who converted to [[Islam]]. He was titled as '''As'ad al-Khayr''' (Arabic: أسعد الخير). He preached Islam in [[Medina]]; it is said he destroyed the [[idol]]s and performed [[prayer]]s alongside other Muslims. He was appointed as the [[naqib]] (deputy) of [[Banu Najjar]] by Prophet Muhammad (s) after [[the second pledge at al-Aqaba]]. As'ad and the Prophet Muhammad (s) had a mutual friendship. When As'ad had died, the Prophet Muhammad (s) performed the [[funeral prayer]] on his body and buried him in [[al-Baqi' cemetery]]. It is said that the 143rd verse of [[al-Baqara]] was revealed on the status of a number of [[sahaba]] especially As'ad b. Zurara. | '''Abū Umāma, Asʿad b.
