Abstract

Reports and news have been narrated in the hadith heritage of Muslims that show the conversion of Najasi, the king of Abyssinia, to Islam during the life of the Prophet (PBUH). Proof of this is important because it shows that the religion of Islam from the beginning, in addition to the Arabian Peninsula, also had followers in neighboring lands. Proof of this issue requires proof of the relevant news in terms of narrative and history.
In this research, which has been done analytically and in a library method, it is intended that these news be examined in terms of documents as well as in terms of the existence of conflicting news. It is also necessary to examine these reports historically and whether they are consistent or inconsistent with some historical statements.
Finally, it turns out that most of the news that is cited to prove Najasi Islam is weak in terms of documents, and the correct news that has been cited in this regard can not prove this issue in terms of evidence. . It is also clear that the issue of Najasi Islam is not in harmony with some historical propositions and events, and in general, this issue can not be denied or proven in terms of narrative-history.
