In Ibn Ishaq's account preserved by al-Samhudi he was of Banu 'Amr ibn 'Awf of the Aws, called 'al-Kamil' for his hardiness and verse; he came to Mecca, where the Prophet invited him to Islam — he neither refused nor accepted — then returned to Yathrib and was soon killed on the day of Bu'ath, and men of his people held that he died a Muslim {cite:samhudi-wafa-al-wafa p. 233}."
