Imran ibn Husayn may Allah be pleased with him is the noble Companion Imran ibn Husayn ibn Ubayd ibn Khalaf al-Khuza'i, kunya Abu Najid. He embraced Islam in Year 7 after the Hijrah (7 AH), at the same time as Abu Hurayrah, and al-Dhahabi mentioned that he and his father embraced Islam in that year. He was one of the jurists of the Companions and one of their devout worshippers, and he narrated a number of hadiths from the Prophet ﷺ. He later became one of the leading figures of Basra, for Umar ibn al-Khattab may Allah be pleased with him sent him to the people of Basra to teach and give them understanding, and he served as judge there. Imran became well known for patience in illness and trial, and for knowledge and piety, until al-Hasan al-Basri said about him: No man came to Basra who was better for them than Imran ibn Husayn. His life is a model of the learned Companion who combined narration, jurisprudence, teaching, and patience.
Husayn ibn Ubayd al-Khuza'i may Allah be pleased with him was the father of Imran ibn Husayn, and he is mentioned in books about the Companions among those who met the Prophet ﷺ and embraced Islam. Some reports mention his coming to the Prophet ﷺ before he embraced Islam, when the Prophet ﷺ spoke with him about monotheism and asked him whom he worshipped. This showed the weakness of polytheism and the strength of the Prophetic argument, and then he later embraced Islam. Biographers mention that Imran ibn Husayn and his father embraced Islam at the same time in 7 AH. The value of Husayn's story on the platform is that it shows the model of the calm Prophetic dialogue with an older man among the polytheists, and how the Prophet ﷺ moved the one being addressed from inherited belief to the question of reason and fitrah: who is called upon in hardship? And who has the power to bring benefit and harm?
