Prior to his prophethood, the circle of friendly relations of the Holy Prophetsa seems to be quite limited. This is because the Holy Prophetsa was one to prefer seclusion from the beginning and never intermingled with the common society of Makkah during any part of his life. However, there were a few individuals with whom the Prophetsa possessed a relationship of friendship. The most distinct among them was Ḥaḍrat Abū Bakrra, also known as, ‘Abdullāh bin Abī Quḥāfah, who belonged to a noble family of the Quraish. On account of his nobility and aptitude, his people looked upon him with great reverence. Next to him was Ḥakīm bin Ḥizāmra who was the nephew of Ḥaḍrat Khadījahra. He was a man of exceptionally decent nature. In the beginning, he did not accept Islām, yet he held feelings of sincerity and love for the Holy Prophetsa. Ultimately, his natural propensity drew him to Islām. The Holy Prophetsa also had relations with Zaid bin ‘Amr. He was a near relative of Ḥaḍrat ‘Umarra and was among those who had abandoned polytheism even in the time of the Jāhiliyyah. He attributed himself to the Abrahamic Religion, but passed away prior to the advent of Islām.
