أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ غَزْوَانَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي مُوسَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ؓ قَالَ:
" خَرَجَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ إِلَى الشَّامِ وَخَرَجَ مَعَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي أَشْيَاخٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، فَلَمَّا أَشْرَفُوا عَلَى الرَّاهِبِ، هَبَطُوا فَخَلَّفُوا رِحَالَهُمْ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِمُ الرَّاهِبُ، وَكَانُوا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ يَمُرُّونَ بِهِ فَلَا يَخْرُجُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتُ إِلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ، فَجَاءَ فَجَعَلَ يَتَخَلَّلُهُمْ حَتَّى جَاءَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: هَذَا سَيِّدُ الْعَالَمِينَ، هَذَا رَسُولُ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، هَذَا ابْتَعَثَهُ اللهُ رَحْمَةً لِلْعَالَمِينَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْأَشْيَاخُ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ: مَا عِلْمُكَ ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّكُمْ حِينَ أَشْرَفْتُمْ مِنَ الْعَقَبَةِ لَمْ تَبْقَ شَجَرَةٌ وَلَا حَجَرٌ إِلَّا سَجَدَ، وَلَا يَسْجُدُ ذَلِكَ إِلَّا لِنَبِيٍّ، وَإِنِّي أَعْرِفُهُ بِخَاتَمِ النُّبُوَّةِ أَسْفَلَ عَنْ غُرْضُوفِ كَتِفِهِ مِثْلَ التُّفَّاحَةِ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَصَنَعَ لَهُمْ طَعَامًا، فَلَمَّا أَتَاهُمْ بِهِ قَالَ: " أَرْسِلُوا إِلَيْهِ وَكَانَ فِي رِعْيَةِ الْإِبِلِ، فَأَقْبَلَ وَعَلَيْهِ غَمَامَةٌ تُظِلُّهُ، فَلَمَّا دَنَا مِنَ الْقَوْمِ وَجَدَهُمْ قَدْ سَبَقُوهُ إِلَى فَيْءِ الشَّجَرَةِ، فَلَمَّا جَلَسَ مَالَ فَيْءُ الشَّجَرَةِ عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ: انْظُرُوا مَالَ فَيْءُ الشَّجَرَةِ عَلَيْهِ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ قَائِمٌ عَلَيْهِ، وَهُوَ يُنَاشِدُهُمْ أَلَّا تَذْهَبُوا بِهِ إِلَى الرُّومِ، فَإِنَّ الرُّومَ إِنْ رَأَوْهُ عَرَفُوهُ بِالصِّفَةِ فَقَتَلُوهُ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ، فَإِذَا هُوَ بِتِسْعِ فَوَارِسَ قَدْ أَقْبَلُوا مِنَ الرُّومِ فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُمْ، فَقَالَ: " مَا جَاءَ بِكُمْ ؟ " قَالُوا: جِئْنَا إِلَى هَذَا النَّبِيِّ الَّذِي هُوَ خَارِجٌ فِي هَذَا الشَّهْرِ، وَلَمْ يَبْقَ طَرِيقٌ إِلَّا وَقَدْ بُعِثَ إِلَيْهِ أُنَاسٌ، وَإِنَّا قَدْ

✧ Abu Talib went out to Syria, and the Prophet ﷺ went with him among elders of Quraysh. When they overlooked the monk, they descended and left their baggage behind. The monk came out to them, whereas before that they would pass by him and he would not come out to them nor pay attention to any of them. He came and began to make his way through them until he came and took the hand of the Messenger of God ﷺ, and said: This is the master of the worlds, this is the Messenger of the Lord of the worlds, this is one whom God has sent as a mercy to the worlds. The elders of Quraysh said to him: What is your knowledge? He said: When you overlooked the mountain pass, there remained no tree or stone but it prostrated, and none prostrates except to a prophet. And I recognize him by the seal of prophethood below the cartilage of his shoulder, like an apple. Then he returned and prepared food for them. When he brought it to them, he said: Send for him, and he was tending the camels. He came, and a cloud was shading him. When he approached the people, he found that they had preceded him to the shade of the tree. When he sat down, the shade of the tree inclined over him. He said: Look, the shade of the tree has inclined over him. While he was standing over him, he was adjuring them not to take him to the Romans, for if the Romans saw him, they would recognize him by the description and kill him.
