Muawiyah bin Al Mugheerah

Muawiyah bin Al Mugheerah was an Arab Pagan during the time of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. He was captured during the Invasion of Hamra al-Asad, where Muhammad accused him of being a Meccan spy, he was the cousin of Uthman ibn Affan, had been captured after Uhud. Uthman gave him shelter. He was given a grace period of three days and arranged a camel and provisions for his return journey to Mecca. Uthman departed with Muhammad for Hamra-al-Asad, and Muawiyah overstayed his grace. Though he fled by the time the army returned, Muhammad ordered his pursuit and execution. The orders were carried out.[1][2][3][4][5]

This incident is also mentioned in Ibn Ishaq and Ibn Hisham's biography of Muhammad.[6]
