His mother was Ghaziyyah bint Qays ibn Tarif.

Brother of Rabiʿah and Nawfal. His original name was ʿAbd Shams, but it was changed; they report that he emigrated shortly before the Conquest, whereupon the Prophet ﷺ named him ʿAbd Allah.
He accompanied the Prophet ﷺ on one of his campaigns and died at al-Safra. The Prophet ﷺ wrapped him in his own shirt—that is, the shirt of the Prophet ﷺ.
It is also said that he ﷺ remarked about him: “He is blessed; felicity has overtaken him (2).” Ibn Saʿd records this without a chain of transmitters. He left no descendants.
