Overview
Shabath ibn Rib'i al-Tamimi al-Yarbu'i, one of the nobles and horsemen; he and al-Ahnaf were the lords of Tamim. 1
At Siffin
He was among those who went out against 'Ali and denounced the arbitration to him, then repented and returned. He narrated from 'Ali and Hudhayfa; Muhammad ibn Ka'b al-Qurazi and Sulayman al-Taymi narrated from him, and one hadith of his appears in Sunan Abi Dawud. Al-A'mash said: I attended Shabath's funeral and saw them wailing and beating themselves over him. 1
