Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه (S3) The second pledge of Aqabah: Musab and the Ansar رضي الله عنهم returned to Makkah alongside with some polytheists to not blow their cover - this was during the Hajj season, in the days of Tashreek, in Dhul Hijjah. Musab رضي الله عنه was given the title: ‘The Mentor’. ~70 of the Ansar رضي الله عنهم went in ones and twos to meet our Messenger ﷺ in Mina. This time, the pledge was more full of commandments, including that they رضي الله عنهم must obey in times of hardship and ease, must defend the Messenger ﷺ as they do their wives and children etc. All the Ansar agreed and gave the pledge. Included in this pledge was Muazh’s mother, Hind رضي الله عنهم. Ka’ab Ibn Malik رضي الله عنه said that the second pledge of Aqabah was greater than Badr! Such is the status of Mina - where 70 Prophets (a.s) were born and where ~70 companions رضي الله عنهم gave the pledge to The Messenger ﷺ.
