Abu l-Haytham b. al-Tayyihan: Difference between revisions

'''Abu l-Haytham b. al-Tayyihān''' (ابو الهيثم بن التيهان) is one of [[the Prophet (s)]]'s [[sahaba]] and a fellow of [[Imam 'Ali (a)]]. He was a monotheist even before [[Islam]]. He was present at [['Aqaba allegiance]], the wars of [[battle of Badr|Badr]], [[The Battle of Uhud|Uhud]], [[the battle of Khandaq|Khandaq]], and [[the battle of Muta|Muta]].

Abu l-Haytham opposed [[Abu Bakr]]'s caliphate after the death of the Prophet (s), and made an allegiance to [[Imam 'Ali (a)]] after [['Uthman]]'s murder. He was killed in [[the battle of Siffin]]. Imam 'Ali (a) regrets the loss of fellows like him in ''[[Nahj al-Balagha]]''.
