Uthman ibn Abu-al-Aas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Uthman ibn Abu-al-Aas (Arabic: عثمان بن أبوالعس) of the Banu Thaqif tribe was in the beginning one of chieftains of the city of Ta'if, a city hostile to Islam. However in 631 or 632, he was included in a delegation that resulted in his tribe accepting Islam. He was chosen as the chief among the people in the delegation.
