Zayd ibn al-Arqam (ra): Exposer of Hypocrites | The Firsts
October 7, 2025 • Dr. Omar Suleiman
Zayd ibn al-Arqam (ra) — the companion whose truth was confirmed by revelation. Raised by the poet-warrior Abdullah ibn Rawaha (ra), he grew up among the earliest Ansar, too young to fight at Badr and Uhud but chosen to guard Madinah.
His courage exposed the hypocrisy of Abdullah ibn Ubayy ibn Salul — a moment so powerful that Surah al-Munafiqun was revealed to confirm his words. From patience through blindness to the miracle of his sight restored, Zayd’s life embodies sincerity, steadfastness, and divine honor. He went on to narrate many core hadiths about prayer, du‘a, and purity — teachings we practice every day.
