Abdullah Ibn Masood?

Abdullah Ibn Masood (RA) was the first man to recite aloud the words of the Qur’aan before a gathering of the Quraish. The companions of the Prophet (pbuh) were together one day in Makkah. They were still few in number, weak and oppressed. They said, ‘The Quraish have not yet heard the Qur’aan being recited openly and loudly. Who is the man who could recite it for them?’ ‘I shall recite it for them,’ volunteered Abdullah Ibn Masood (RA). ‘We are afraid for you,’ they said. ‘We only want someone who has a clan who would protect him from their evil.’ ‘Let me,’ Abdullah Ibn Masood (RA) insisted, ‘Allah shall protect me and keep me away from their evil.’ He then went out to the mosque until he reached Maqam Ibrahim (a landmark situated a few meters from the Kabah). It was dawn and the Quraish were sitting around the Kabah. Abdullah began to recite Surah Rahman. The Quraish looked at him intently and some of them asked, ‘What is Ibn Umm Abd saying? **** him! He is reciting some of what Muhammad (pbuh) brought!’

' I grew up in a village where my father was the chief. His love and concern for me was so much so, that he imprisoned me the same way young girls were at the time; but I managed to escape. My journey has taken me through many lands and many religions until my heart and body found the truth of Islam. I revolutionised the military strategy of Muslims. In the later years of my life, I settled in Iraq and became a great yet humble scholar whose wisdom was unrivalled. My journey is one of the most famous recounted in the history of Islam.'

^I am the Prophet's (s.a.w) cousin. I became the leader of the Quraysh after Abu Jahl's death. I accepted Islam during/just before the conquest of Makkah. My daughter is married to the prophet and my son was handed the khilaafah by Hasan (r.a). I am from Banu Umayyah. Who am I?

:w:
 
I am one of the earliest muslims, I was also the first person to greet the prophet pbuh with the greeting of Islam "As-salaamu Alayka Yaa Rasulullah, (Peace be on you, O Messenger of God)". After that, the greeting spread and came into general use.

Alpha Jr, I'm sure you can pose a question, just open your Islamic history text book. you'll be learning too that way.

Anyway, next question:

I am the prophet's son-in-law. I married two of his daughters. I had a great amount of bashfulness. I did not take part in the Battle of Badr. I ruled the Muslims for twelve years. I was martyred while I was fasting. I extended Masjidun Nabawi and bought a well for the muslims in Madeenah.

Who am I?
