-Miqdad b. 'Amr b. Tha'laba (b. 37 BH/586-7 - d. [[33]]/653-4) also known as Miqdad b. al-Aswad.
+Miqdad b. 'Amr b. Tha'laba, known as Miqdad b. al-Aswad was born in [[Hadramut]], [[Yemen]] on 16 years after [['Am al-fil]] (b. 24 BH/586-7 - d. [[33]]/653-4). Biographers and historians have mentioned up to 20 of his ancestors.
-He was living in [[Hadramut]] in the [[age of Ignorance]], because of an issue in his birth place he came to [[Mecca]] and became the adopted son to [[Aswad b. 'Abd Yaghuth]], so he was called Miqdad b. 'Abd Yaghuth, till the [[verse]] 5 of [[sura al-Ahzab]] commanded that everyone should be called after his father, and after that he was called Miqdad b. 'Amr.
+It is said that Miqdad had a quarrel with a person called “Abu Shimr b. Hajar” in [[Hadhramaut]] which led to that person’s injury. After that, Miqdad went to [[Mecca]] and allied with [[Aswad b. 'Abd Yaghuth al-Zuhri]]. Thus, Aswad became Miqdad’s father, and he came to be known as Miqdad b. Aswad and sometimes Miqdad al-Zuhri.
+===Family===
+'''Wife''': Miqdad's wife was [[Duba'a bt. Zubayr b. 'Abd al-Muttalib|Duba'a]], the [[Prophet]]'s (s) cousin and [[Zubayr b. 'Abd al-Muttalib]]'s daughter. The Prophet (s) married Duba'a to Miqdad although he considered her as having a great prestige and lineage, saying: "I married my cousin, Duba'a, to Miqdad, so that people can take marriage easy, be encouraged to marry their daughters to every believer, regardless of what lineage and prestige they have".
+'''Children''': Miqdad had two children called 'Abd Allah and Karima. 'Abd Allah was a supporter of [['A'isha]] in the [[Battle of Jamal]], fought against [[Imam 'Ali (a)]], and was killed in that battle. At the end of the battle when Imam 'Ali (a) looked at 'Abd Allah's corpse, he told him: "how bad a nephew you have been!" On some accounts, the name of Miqdad's son was "Ma'bad", not "'Abd Allah".
 He demised near [[Medina]] and [[:category:buried in Medina|buried in Medina]].
