The story of Ada Bin Hatam Thai is one of transformation, courage, and truth.

He embraced Islam in the year 9 Hijri. Ada bin Hatam Thai was the son of the famous Arab known for his extreme generosity — Hatam al-Tai. At first, Ada was a Christian and a chief of his tribe. When Islam spread and his area came under Muslim rule, he decided to travel to Madina and meet the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) himself.

When he met the Prophet (SAW), he was deeply impressed by the kindness, simplicity, and powerful message of Islam. The Prophet spoke to him with wisdom, and it touched Ada’s heart.

He accepted Islam willingly and later became a strong Muslim and a respected figure among the Sahabah.

His journey shows that truth reaches even those who begin far from it, and that Islam spreads through character, not just words.
