Muṭʽim died a non-Muslim;[2] however, his son Jubayr ibn Mut'im became a Muslim.
[3] Muṭʽim was part of the third deputation aimed at having Abu Talib stop protecting Muhammad.
[4] Muṭʽim, together with four other people, took a prominent initiative that resulted in the end of the Meccan banishment that was causing starvation to the Muslims.
[2]Abu Bakr said:O Muṭʽim, what an evil thing you said to the son of your brother when you faced him thus and declared him a liar!
It was not after that the Medinan pilgrims had left the city that the Meccans became aware of meeting and in a fit of rage, they pursued the pilgrims but only managed to catch hold of Saʽd, who they subjected to great tortures, but he was later rescued by Muṭʽim and Harith ibn Harb with whom Saʽd had trade relations.
