When Muhammad and Abu Bakr migrated from Mecca in September 622, Abu Bakr instructed young Abdullah to listen to people's conversations and report the day's news to them at the cave on Mount Thawr each night. Abdullah duly reported that the Quraysh had offered a hundred camels to anyone who captured Muhammad. Each morning, when he left the cave, the family servant would lead a flock of sheep over the same route to cover his tracks.[5]: 224 [1]: 131
Emigration to Medinaedit
A few months later, Abdullah emigrated to Medina in the company of his stepmother Umm Ruman and two sisters Asma and Aisha.[6]: 8 [3]: 172
In 630 Abdullah fought at the Siege of Ta'if, where the Thaqafite poet, Abū Miḥjan al-Thaḳafī, shot him with an arrow. This wound ultimately caused his death, although he survived for nearly three years afterwards.[5]: 591 [7]
Marriageedit
He married Atiqa bint Zayd, a poetess from the Banu Adi clan of the Quraysh. This marriage was childless.[4]: 186 It was said that Abdullah deferred to Atika's judgment and that he spent so much time with her that he neglected his duties to the Islamic state. Abu Bakr punished his son by ordering him to divorce her. Abdullah did as he was told but was grief-stricken. He wrote poetry for Atika:[8][9]
I have never known a man like me divorce a woman like her, nor any woman like her divorced for no fault of her own.[8]
In the end, Abdullah was allowed to take Atika back before her waiting period was completed.[8][9]: 87
Deathedit
Abdullah died in January 633, when his old wound from Ta'if flared up.[7][10]: 76 [11]: 101 His wife composed an elegy for him.
I vow that my soul will remain in sorrow over thee and my skin will remain dusty.[4]: 187
