عقيل بن أبي طالب
Aqil ibn Abi Talib RA was the second son of Abu Talib, brother of Ja'far RA and Ali RA, and the Prophet ﷺ's cousin. Unlike his younger brothers he did not accept Islam in Makkah, and he fought with the Quraysh at Badr, where he was captured and ransomed by his uncle al-Abbas. Having inherited Abu Talib's house, where the Prophet ﷺ grew up, he sold it after the Hijrah, and at the Conquest the Prophet ﷺ let the sale stand. Like other prisoners of Badr, he accepted Islam around the Conquest of Makkah.
