'Abdah ibn at-Tabib

'Abdah ibn at-Tabib was of the same tribe as Qais ibn 'Asim, the chief of Tamim, and shared his fortunes. He accepted Islam late in life, and Lyall dates his Ode XXVI after Tamim became Muslim, as it celebrates the victory of al-Muthanna over the Persians at Babylon in A.H. 13.

He is remembered only by two odes in the collection and a short elegy on Qais.
