حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي الْأَشْعَثِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِيَاسِ بْنِ عَفِيفٍ الْكِنْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ
كُنْتُ امْرَأً تَاجِرًا، فَقَدِمْتُ الْحَجَّ، فَأَتَيْتُ الْعَبَّاسَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ لِأَبْتَاعَ مِنْهُ بَعْضَ التِّجَارَةِ، وَكَانَ امْرَأً تَاجِرًا، فَوَاللهِ إِنِّي لَعِنْدَهُ بِمِنًى إِذْ خَرَجَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خِبَاءٍ قَرِيبٍ مِنْهُ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَى الشَّمْسِ، فَلَمَّا رَآهَا مَالَتْ - يَعْنِي - قَامَ يُصَلِّي. قَالَ: ثُمَّ خَرَجَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْخِبَاءِ الَّذِي خَرَجَ مِنْهُ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ، فَقَامَتْ خَلْفَهُ تُصَلِّي، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ غُلَامٌ حِينَ رَاهَقَ الْحُلُمَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْخِبَاءِ، فَقَامَ مَعَهُ يُصَلِّي. قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ لِلْعَبَّاسِ: «مَنْ هَذَا يَا عَبَّاسُ؟» قَالَ: «هَذَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ابْنُ أَخِي». قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: «مَنْ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةُ؟» قَالَ: «هَذِهِ امْرَأَتُهُ خَدِيجَةُ ابْنَةُ خُوَيْلِدٍ». قَالَ: قُلْتُ: «مَنْ هَذَا الْفَتَى؟» قَالَ: «هَذَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ». قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: «فَمَا هَذَا الَّذِي يَصْنَعُ؟» قَالَ: «يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ، وَلَمْ يَتْبَعْهُ عَلَى أَمْرِهِ إِلَّا امْرَأَتُهُ وَابْنُ عَمِّهِ، هَذَا الْفَتَى، وَهُوَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ سَيُفْتَحُ عَلَيْهِ كُنُوزُ كِسْرَى وَقَيْصَرَ». قَالَ: فَكَانَ عَفِيفٌ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، يَقُولُ، وَأَسْلَمَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ، فَحَسُنَ إِسْلَامُهُ: «لَوْ كَانَ اللهُ رَزَقَنِي الْإِسْلَامَ يَوْمَئِذٍ، فَأَكُونُ ثَالِثًا مَعَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ».

✧ I was a merchant, and I came for Hajj. I went to al-Abbas b. Abd al-Muttalib to buy some merchandise from him, for he was also a merchant. By Allah, while I was with him at Mina, a man came out of a tent nearby. He looked at the sun, and when he saw that it had declined—meaning—he stood to pray. He said: Then a woman came out of the same tent from which that man had emerged and stood behind him to pray. Then a boy who was nearing puberty came out of that tent and stood with him to pray. He said: I asked al-Abbas, “Who is this, Abbas?” He replied, “This is Muhammad b. Abdullah b. Abd al-Muttalib, my nephew.” I asked, “Who is this woman?” He replied, “This is his wife, Khadijah bt. Khuwaylid.” I asked, “Who is this young man?” He replied, “This is Ali b. Abi Talib, his cousin.” I then asked, “What is he doing?” He replied, “He is praying and claims that he is a prophet. No one has followed him in his cause except his wife and his cousin, this young man. He also claims that the treasures of Khosrow and Caesar will be opened to him.” Afif, who was a cousin of al-Ashath b. Qays, later accepted Islam and became a good Muslim. He would say, “If only Allah had granted me Islam that day, so that I might have been a third alongside Ali b. Abi Talib.”
