Q
What can be learned from Ka’b bin Malik’s decision to prioritize the Al-‘Aqaba pledge over participating in the Battle of Badr?
A
Who was Ka`b’s guide when Ka`b turned blind: I heard Ka`b bin Malik narrating: When he remained
behind (i.e. did not Join) the Prophet (ﷺ) in the Ghazwa of Tabuk. Ibn Bukair, in his narration stated that
Ka`b said, ” I witnessed the Al-`Aqaba pledge of allegiance at night with the Prophet (ﷺ) when we jointly
agreed to support Islam with all our efforts I would not like to have attended the Badr battle instead of
that ‘Aqaba pledge although Badr is more well-known than it, amongst the people.”
