Rifa'a ibn Zayd al-Judhami comes to the Prophet, embraces Islam and carries his letter to his people

Rifa'a ibn Zayd al-Judhami, of the Dubayb, came to the Prophet during the Hudaybiyya truce before Khaybar, gave him a slave and became a good Muslim; the Prophet wrote him a letter to his people: he sent him to all his people and whoever joined them, to call them to God and His Messenger, and whoever came forward was in God's party and the Messenger's, while whoever turned away had two months' safety. His people answered and embraced Islam, then moved to Harrat al-Rajla' and settled there.
