No facts of Ibn Isḥāq's early life are known, but it is likely that he followed in the family tradition of transmission of early akhbār and hadith. Isḥāq married the daughter of another mawlā and from this marriage Ibn Isḥāq was born. His three sons, Mūsā, ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, and Isḥāq, were transmitters of "akhbār", ie they collected and recounted written and oral testaments of the past. On his conversion to Islam, he was manumitted as " mawlā" (client), thus acquiring the surname, or " nisbat", al-Muṭṭalibī.
After being found in one of Khalid ibn al-Walid's campaigns, Yasār was taken to Medina and enslaved to Qays ibn Makhrama ibn al-Muṭṭalib ibn ʿAbd Manāf ibn Quṣayy. 704), ibn Isḥaq's grandfather was Yasār, one of forty Christian or Jewish boys who had been held captive in a monastery at Ayn al-Tamr. 2 Biography of Muhammad ( Sīrat Rasūl Allāh)īorn in Medina circa A.H.
