Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (died 674〔Or 52 A.H, see Ibn Sa'd and Tabari, cited in Prof. Philip K Hitti, ''A History of the Arabs'', London, 1951 revised edition, p.202〕) — born Khalid bin Zayd bin Kulayb in Yathrib — hailed from the tribe of Banu Najjar and was a close companion (Arabic: الصحابه, ''sahaba'') of Muhammad. He was named after the biblical Job. Abu Ayyub was one among the Ansar (Arabic: الأنصار, meaning aiders, helpers or patrons) of early Muslim history or those who supported Muhammad after the hegira (migration) to Medina in 622. The patronym ''Abu Ayyub'', means father (abu) of Ayyub. Abu Ayyub died during the First Arab Siege of Constantinople. When Muhammad arrived in Medina, he was offered accommodation by all of its inhabitants. It was decided to leave his camel to walk freely and where ever it sits and whomsoever's house is near to choose as Muhammad's temporary residence and the camel sat near Abu Ayyub al-Ansari 's house who belonged to Bani An-Najjar the best of the tribes in Medina Sahih Bukari Book #73, Hadith #79. When Abu Ayub Al Ansari cooked a lunch only for Muhammad and Abubackr Muhammad ordered to invite the neighbourhood to their surprise which were about 180 people who ate satisfactorily and was a miracle. Following the Muslim conquest of Egypt, Abu Ayyub moved to a house in Fustat adjacent to the mosque of Amr bin Al'aas which was completed in 642. Several other notable companions were his neighbors, including Zubayr ibn al-Awwam, Ubaida, Abu Dhar, Abdullah ibn Umar and Abdullah ibn Amr bin Al'aas.〔Masud ul-Hasan, Hadrat 'Umar Farooq, Islamic Publications Ltd. Lahore 1982〕 He also led a distinguished military career. Of him it was said, "He did not stay away from any battle the Muslims fought from the time of Muhammad to the time of Muawiyah, unless he was engaged at the same time in another."〔Muhammad ibn Sa'd, ''Kitāb at-Tabāqat al-Kabīr'' (The Great Book of Generations).〕 ==Shia View== Abu Ayyub is included in the list of the followers of Ali by Shia Muslims, as he was a close companion of Ali bin Abu Talib 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abu Ayyub al-Ansari」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
