Teaching
Miqdad ibn Aswad Al-Kindi deeply believed in Allah and teachings of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad. One day, the Islamic Prophet Muhammad said: “Allah has ordered me to love four (persons), and He has told me that He loves them. The persons are Ali, al-Miqdad, Abu Dharr al-Ghifari, and Salman al Farisi.”
Al-Miqdad taught people the Qur'an. His reading became famous all over Damascus. Al-Miqdad stayed loyal to Allah and the Islamic Prophet Muhammad and died at the age of ninety.
