The delegation of Banu al-Bakka was a delegation from Banu al-Bakka ibn Amir ibn Sa'sa'ah. It came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Year 9 after the Hijrah (9 AH). Among its men were Mu'awiyah ibn Thawr al-Bakka'i, an old man, with his son Bishr, al-Faji' ibn Abdullah al-Bakka'i, and Abd Amr known as al-Asamm. The Prophet ﷺ received them, ordered lodging and hospitality for them, and gave them gifts when they left. It is reported about them that Mu'awiyah ibn Thawr asked the Prophet ﷺ to wipe his son Bishr's face in kindness toward him, so the Prophet ﷺ wiped it and gave him some she-goats and blessed them. The story of this delegation shows the growing number of delegations in Year 9 and the Prophet ﷺ's care in honoring the tribes that came and linking them to Islam with mercy and a warm welcome.
