Urwah said: "Al-Zubayr accepted Islam at the age of eight." Urwah also narrated: "A false rumor spread from Satan that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) had been seized in upper Makkah. Al-Zubayr, then a boy of twelve, went out with his sword. Those who did not know him said: 'The boy has a sword!' He came to the Prophet who said: 'What is the matter, O Zubayr?' He said: 'I was told you had been captured.' The Prophet asked: 'And what would you have done?' He said: 'I would have struck whoever captured you with this.' The Prophet supplicated for him and for his sword. It was the first sword drawn in the cause of Allah."
