Sa’d ibn Abī Waqqās (RA) was one of the ten people who were promised paradise by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW). He (RA) was in the panel of the six people who had to choose the next caliph of Islam among them after the death of the second caliph Hazrat Umar (RA). He (RA) served his whole life in serving Islam and spreading it. He (RA) took many responsibilities at the advent of Islam.

He (RA) embraced the teachings of Islam at a young age of 17 and was one of the earliest to do it. Sa’d ibn Abī Waqqās (RA) was closely related to the Holy Prophet (SAW) and was his (SAW) cousin. However, Holy Prophet (SAW) considered him his uncle. Holy Prophet (SAW) once said: “Here is my uncle, Sa`d. if anyone has an uncle like him, then he should show me.” [Ibn Hajari, Tarikh, 2:33; Ibn Athir, ibid, 2:291]. Sa’d ibn Abī Waqqās (RA) was one of those sahabas or companion of Rasool Allah who worked tirelessly for the betterment of Islam and he (RA) also took the responsibilities of preacher, ambassador and an adviser to the Holy Prophet (SAW). He (RA) played a vital role in the battles of Persia and Qadsiya in the reign of Hazrat Umar (RA). He (RA) was sent to the battlefield as commander of the army in both these conquests. With his immaculate strength and bravery, he (RA) taught a worthy lesson to the enemies of Islam.

  • Earliest Evidences of Sa’d ibn abi Waqqas in China

    A.M.A. Shushteby noted:“According to Chinese tradition, a certain S’ad, son of Vaqqas, or Wahab, the son of Abu-Kabshah, was the first Muslim who reached Canton by sea, as early as 629 AD.” In one instance, Umar addressed Sa’d ibn abi Waqqas as Sa’d ibn Waheeb. So, here Wahab is Sa’d and Abu Kabsha is his (Sad’s) father Abi Waqqas. (See: A. M. A. Shushteby, 1938, Outlines of Islamic Culture, volume 1: Historical and Cultural Aspects, The Bangalore Press: Bangalore, P. 25.)

    Before we try to reach any conclusion on how early and who reached China as a Muslim first, we need to peruse the following classical accounts including Chinese and of the western historians.

    Classical/Original Original Source

    Source 1:

    Based on Minshu (1620 CE) by Ho Ch’iao-Yuan:

    “Activities of Persians and Arabs in these cities (Yang-chou and Canton) were confined to maritime trade because the majority of them were merchants. There were also Islamic disciples who came to China with the intention to preach. In the reign of Wu-te (AD 618-626), four Islamic disciples were dispatched to China to spread the Muhammadan faith. Of these four, one was posted in Canton, one in Yang-chou and the other two were stationed in Ch’uan-chou”.

    Original Chinese Account of the 651 Embassy based on Old & New Tang Dynasty Records:

    According to Tang histories, an Arab embassy from Caliph Usman (described as the fourth king/Caliph) arrived at Tang court in 651 CE which was in the second year of Emperor Yung-hui.

    (Sources: Liu Shu (ed.), 945, The Old Tang History (Chiu T’ang Shu)Bold text, SSu Pu Pei Yao edition: Wu Tai Publication (Catalogue: 198.28b) and Ou-Yang Hsiu & Sung Ch’i (eds.), 1061,The New Tang History (Hsin T’ang HsuBold text), Kai Ming Erh Shih Wu Shih Edition: Sung Publication (Catalogue: 221.19a). Ou-yung Hsien (1007-72 CE) wrote the New History of the Tang Dynasty (Hsin Tang Shu/ Xi’n Tang Shu> source: Wm. Theodore deBarry, (ed.), 1960, Sources of Chinese Tradition, New York: Columbia University Press; Raphael Israeli, 1994, Muslims in China, New Delhi: Ambika Publications, p.80). The Old Tang History mentions Yung-hui erh-nien (meaning: the second year of Yung-Hui, i.e. in 651 CE about the Arab embassy. )

The legends have been collected by Thiersant and more critically by Deveria, Origine”.

Only Vankhas, as I will continue to call him in the Soviet Dungan version of the legend, survives the trip and reach China. There is no doubt that Vankhas is Wakkas, about whom a great deal of contradictory, legendary and confusing information is written”, as Waqqas was noted to have arrived in China in 628 and 651 also.}

    Curiusly also, I find another evidence of Abu Waqqas and other Sahabas in Chittagong (Bangladesh) on way to China, in a book “Challenge of Islamic Da’wah in Bangladesh: The Christian Missions and Their Evangelization, by Dr. Md. Yusuf Ali & Abu Sadat Nurullah, IIUC Studies, vol. 4, Dec 2007, p. 88. The text (extract) is as follows:

    *Evidence of Abu Waqqas in Bangladesh*

    “The advent of Islam in Bangladesh or Bengal is said to be in around year 620 CE (around 10th year of prophethood). MuÍaddith Imam Abadan Marwazi (R), in his book, wrote that the Companions of the Prophet (pbuh) like Abu Waqqas, Malik ibn Wahaib, Qays bin Huzayfah, ‘Urwa ibn Athathah, Abu Qays ibn al-×ārith (R) and some other Companions, in the seventh year of prophet hood, went on a voyage from Ethiopia (after the first migration) towards China. During their long journey on the ocean for nine years, they stopped over at the ports of Bangladesh, or Bengal. By their influential characters, many a one accepted Islam there.(Ref: KHAN, MAULANA MOHIUDDIN (1999); “Bangladeshe Islam: Koyekti Tothyosutra.” (Islam in Bangladesh: Sources), The Monthly Madinah. Jan 1992, PP. 41. Cited in A K M Nazir Ahmad. Bangladeshe Islamer agomon (The advent
    of Islam in Bangladesh), (Dhaka: Bangladesh Islamic Centre, 1999) P. 20.)

    “This event is assumed to be in Chittagong, as the major port prevalent in Bangladesh is the port of Chittagong. In an account, Qureishi mentions about the initiation of Islam during the reign of ‘Umr bin al-Khattab (R) through Chittagong, which was, thus, known as ‘Islamabad’ previously.” (Ref: QUREISHI, UMR B. A. AZIZ (2002); Al-Islam fi Bilad al-Banjal (Islam in the Bengal), (Cairo: Islamiyyah lil-Taba’ah, 2002), P. 79.)

    Evidence 7:

    Dr. KO Ko Gyi noted:

    “Manipuri Muslims are one of the earliest settlers (i.e., from circa 680 AD) outside the Arab Peninsula and the Gulf region vis-a-vis histories of South Asian and S.E. Asian Muslim histories including China where the Prophet Muhammad (570-632 AD) sent two preachers by sea in c. 616 AD.

    Teaching of Prophet Muhammad (Sa’d bin Waqqas) and that of Tang period Chinese records reveal that in a return journey to China in reciprocity to the Chinese embassy to Arabia, i.e a Muslim embassy to Chinese capital Chan’gan reached in 651 AD. The Hui of China (Chinese Muslims) trace their origin to the date of 25 August, 651 AD.”

  • Mistake Corrected:

    In the first Para, It wrote:

    “A.M.A. Shushteby noted: “According to Chinese tradition, a certain S’ad, son of Vaqqas, or Wahab, the son of Abu-Kabshah, was the first Muslim who reached Canton by sea, as early as 629 AD.” Wherein, Sa’d is Sa’d; Sa’d's fathers is Abi Waqqas, and Abi Waqqas’s father is Uhaiyb (here Abi Kabsha), according to some western writers. (The mistake of Sa’d as Wahab is regretted; the was just oversight).
