When the Prophet announced openly his call to guidance and truth and Arabs from one region after another accepted his teachings, Adiyy saw in his mission a threat to his position and leadership. Although he did not know the Prophet personally, and had never seen him, he developed strong feelings of enmity towards him. He remained antagonistic to Islam for close upon twenty years until at last God opened his heart to the religion of truth and guidance.

All perfect praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.
Ath-Thahabi wrote a biography for Ibn ‘Adiyy in his book Siyar A‘laam an-Nubalaa’ wherein he identified him as Abu Ahmad, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Adiyy ibn ‘Abdullah ibn Muhammad ibn Mubaarak ibn Al-Qattaan Al-Jirjaani, author of the book “Al-Kaamil in Al-Jarh wa At-Ta‘deel”. He was born in A.H., and he first started listening to ahaadeeth in A.H., and he travelled for the purpose of listening to them in A.H.
He mentioned a number of his teachers and students. He quoted Hamzah ibn Yusuf, saying, “I asked Ad-Daaraqutni to write a book on the weak narrators, and he said, ‘Do you not have the book of Ibn ‘Adiyy?’ I replied, ‘Yes.’”
Hamzah As-Sahmi was quoted as having said, “Ibn ‘Adiyy was a memorizer of ahaadeeth, and he mastered its memorization; at his time, there was no one like him.” It was also reported that Abu Ya‘la Al-Khaleeli said, “Abu Ahmad (i.e. Ibn ‘Adiyy) was unrivaled in the memorization of ahaadeeth and in eminence.”
He mentioned that he died in Jumaada Al-Aakhirah in the year A.H. .
Allah knows best.

Although he did not know the Prophet personally, and had never met him, he developed strong feelings of enmity towards him. He remained antagonistic to Islam for close to twenty years until at last God opened his heart to the religion of truth and guidance. The way in which Adiyy became a Muslim is a remarkable story. He himself narrated the story:
Wealth flowed among the Muslims so much so that when the town-criers called on people

Adiyy Goes to Syria to Be With Christians
“There was no man among the Arabs who detested God’s Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, more than I, when I heard about him. I was then a man of status and nobility. I was a Christian. From my people I took a fourth of their booty as was the practice of other Arab kings. When I heard of the Messenger of God, pea
