He was the son of Uqbah ibn Abu Mu'ayt, a man who tried to kill Muhammad and finally died as a non-Muslim, and thus the brother of Umm Kulthum binte Uqba [citation needed]. He was also a half-brother of Uthman[1]
Ibn Taymiya, a 13th century Sunni Islamic scholar in his A Great Compilation of Fatwa:
| The Companions would pray behind people whom they knew to be open transgressors, such as when Abd-Allah ibn Mas'ud and other Companions would pray behind Walid ibn 'Uqba ibn Abi Mu'it, who may have recently drunken alcohol (when he was praying) and would wind up praying four rakaats. |
