Salām bin Abī 'l-Huqayq or Abu Rafi (Arabic: سلام بن أبي الحقيق) was a Jewish poet of early 7th century Arabia who financed and assisted the Pagan tribes who were fighting Muhammad and his followers, the muslims.
He was killed in the Expedition of 'Abdullah ibn 'Atik[1][2] after composed satirical verse (hija') about Muhammad and other early Muslim leaders.
When men of the Banu Aus assassinated Ka'b ibn al-Ashraf, some Khazraj tribesman including Abdullah ibn Unays went to Muhammad and received his permission to kill Sallam.
Abu Rafi's assassination is mentioned in many Sunni Hadith: Narrated Al-Bara bin Azib: Allah's Apostle sent a group of Ansari men to kill Abu-Rafi.
