Abu Fakiha

One of the earliest weak converts, a client of Safwan ibn Umayya (or of the Banu Abd al-Dar), said to be of Azd origin. Umayya ibn Khalaf tied a rope to his foot and dragged him onto the scorching sand until he was thought dead; Abu Bakr bought and freed him. His name is given as Yasar, or Aflah ibn Yasar.
