A Revenge That Failed
At Hunayn, while still a polytheist, Shayba moved with the intent of killing the Prophet ﷺ to avenge his father, the Uhud-era Qurayshi flag-bearer. He was supernaturally stopped — a wall of fire or unseen barrier between him and the Prophet ﷺ — and afterwards embraced Islam. 1 Seerat-e-Mustafa · Vol 3 · pp. 80 — Idris Kandhlawi — Shayba ibn Uthman supernaturally stopped at Hunayn; embraces Islam.
The custodianship of the Ka’ba continued in his line after him. 2 Seerat-e-Mustafa · Vol 3 · pp. 80 — Idris Kandhlawi — the Ka'ba custodianship continued in the line of Shayba ibn Uthman.
