When Muhammad and [[Zayd ibn Harithah]] (son of Haritha, who was for a time the adopted son of Muhammad) went to [[Ta'if]] to invite them to Islam, but did not succeed and returned to [[Mecca]], he did not return openly.

After [[Muhammad]] stated that he had undergone the [[Isra and Mi{{ayin}}raj]], Muṭ{{ayin}}im said:{{quote|All of your affair before today was bearable, until what you said today. I bear witness that you are a liar. We strike the flanks of the she-camels for one month to reach the [[Al-Aqsa|Hallowed House]], then for another month to come back, and you claim that you went there in one night! By [[Allat]], by [[al-‘Uzzá]]! I do not believe you.<ref name=sunnah/>}}

[[Abu Bakr]] said:{{quote|O Muṭ{{ayin}}im, what an evil thing you said to the son of your brother when you faced him thus and declared him a liar! As for me I bear witness that he spoke the truth.<ref name=sunnah/>}}

====Second pledge at al-Aqabah (622)====
{{main|Second pledge at al-Aqabah}}
[[Sa{{ayin}}d ibn {{ayin}}Ubadah]] participated in the secret Second pledged. 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 Sa{{ayin}}d, who they subjected to great tortures, but he was later rescued by '''Muṭ{{ayin}}im''' and [[Harith ibn Harb]] with whom Sa{{ayin}}d had trade relations.<ref name="sunnipath2">[[The Sealed Nectar]] [http://www.sunnipath.com/Resources/PrintMedia/Books/B0033P0017.aspx The Second ‘Aqabah Pledge] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061128120537/http://www.sunnipath.com/Resources/PrintMedia/Books/B0033P0017.aspx |date=2006-11-28 }} on sunnipath.com</ref>
