الصحابي الأرقم بن أبي الأرقم المخزومي وأثره في التاريخ الإسلامي

Abstract

This research discusses a topic from the topics of Islamic history, which is the topic of the companion Al-Arqam bin Abi Al-Arqam Al-Mahzoumi, where the biography of this companion was highlighted, in addition to studying that house that was associated with his name, as it represents a prominent station of the stations of the prophetic mission in its Meccan era.

By following up and analyzing the texts and narrations that dealt with the subject, it became clear that they seem insufficient and not comprehensive in terms of highlighting the events related to this subject- especially the stage of Muslims' residence in the house of Al-Arqam – in a clear and decisive manner in terms of the date of choosing this house as their headquarters and in terms of the period they spent in the house and the way in which this historical stage ended, in addition to the lack of narrations that deal with the biography of Al-Arqam after the era of prophecy, especially since his life extended to more than four decades after the death of the prophet may God blees him  and his family and grant them peace.

          According to the available information about his biography during the Prophetic era, the subject was discussed in terms of his early conversion to Islam, his home that was chosen as a center for consultation, his migration and his jihad, in addition to some of the tasks that were entrusted to him, namely the task of writing and his use in collecting alms.
