There were among their people some of their shaykhs who remained in their polytheistic religion, among whom was 'Amr b. al-Jamuh b. Zayd b. Haram b. Ka'b b. Ghanm b. Salimah, whose son Mu'adh b. 'Amr had been present at al-'Aqabah and had sworn an oath of allegiance to the Messenger of God along with others of their young men. Those members of the Aws and the Khazraj who took the oath of allegiance at the second al-'Aqabah took the pledge of war, when, in contrast to the terms of the first al-'Aqabah, God permitted fighting. The first was the pledge of women, as I have mentioned above on the authority of 'Ubadah b. al-Samit. The second pledge of al-'Aqabah was to wage war against all men, as I have mentioned above on the authority
of 'Urwah b. al-Zubayr.}}
