حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ
بَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَيْلاً قِبَلَ نَجْدٍ، فَجَاءَتْ بِرَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي حَنِيفَةَ يُقَالُ لَهُ ثُمَامَةُ بْنُ أُثَالٍ، فَرَبَطُوهُ بِسَارِيَةٍ مِنْ سَوَارِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: «مَا عِنْدَكَ يَا ثُمَامَةُ؟» فَقَالَ: عِنْدِي خَيْرٌ يَا مُحَمَّدُ، إِنْ تَقْتُلْنِي تَقْتُلْ ذَا دَمٍ، وَإِنْ تُنْعِمْ تُنْعِمْ عَلَى شَاكِرٍ، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تُرِيدُ الْمَالَ فَسَلْ مِنْهُ مَا شِئْتَ. حَتَّى كَانَ الْغَدُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ: «مَا عِنْدَكَ يَا ثُمَامَةُ؟» قَالَ: مَا قُلْتُ لَكَ، إِنْ تُنْعِمْ تُنْعِمْ عَلَى شَاكِرٍ. فَتَرَكَهُ حَتَّى كَانَ بَعْدَ الْغَدِ، فَقَالَ: «مَا عِنْدَكَ يَا ثُمَامَةُ؟» فَقَالَ: عِنْدِي مَا قُلْتُ لَكَ. فَقَالَ: «أَطْلِقُوا ثُمَامَةَ». فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى نَخْلٍ قَرِيبٍ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ فَاغْتَسَلَ، ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَقَالَ: أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ. يَا مُحَمَّدُ، وَاللَّهِ مَا كَانَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ وَجْهٌ أَبْغَضَ إِلَىَّ مِنْ وَجْهِكَ، فَقَدْ أَصْبَحَ وَجْهُكَ أَحَبَّ الْوُجُوهِ إِلَىَّ، وَاللَّهِ مَا كَانَ مِنْ دِينٍ أَبْغَضَ إِلَىَّ مِنْ دِينِكَ، فَأَصْبَحَ دِينُكَ أَحَبَّ الدِّينِ إِلَىَّ، وَاللَّهِ مَا كَانَ مِنْ بَلَدٍ أَبْغَضُ إِلَىَّ مِنْ بَلَدِكَ، فَأَصْبَحَ بَلَدُكَ أَحَبَّ الْبِلاَدِ إِلَىَّ، وَإِنَّ خَيْلَكَ أَخَذَتْنِي وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ الْعُمْرَةَ، فَمَاذَا تَرَى؟ فَبَشَّرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَعْتَمِرَ. فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ، قَالَ لَهُ قَائِلٌ: صَبَوْتَ؟ قَالَ: لاَ، وَلَكِنْ أَسْلَمْتُ مَعَ مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَلاَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ يَأْتِيكُمْ مِنَ الْيَمَامَةِ حَبَّةُ حِنْطَةٍ حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ فِيهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ.

The Prophet ﷺ sent cavalry toward Najd, and they returned with a man from Banu Hanifah named Thumamah b. Uthal. They tied him to one of the pillars of the mosque. The Prophet ﷺ came out to him and said, "What do you have to say, O Thumamah?" He replied, "I have something good to say, O Muhammad. If you kill me, you will kill a man whose blood will be avenged; if you show me favor, you will show favor to someone grateful; and if you want wealth, ask for whatever amount you wish." When the next day came, he again asked him, "What do you have to say, O Thumamah?" He replied, "What I told you: if you show me favor, you will show favor to someone grateful." He left him until the following day and then asked, "What do you have to say, O Thumamah?" He replied, "I have what I already told you." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Release Thumamah." He went to a palm grove near the mosque and bathed, then entered the mosque and said, "I testify that there is no god but Allah, and I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. O Muhammad, by Allah, there was no face on earth more hateful to me than your face, but now your face has become the most beloved of all faces to me. By Allah, there was no religion more hateful to me than your religion, but now your religion has become the most beloved religion to me. By Allah, there was no land more hateful to me than your land, but now your land has become the most beloved of all lands to me. Your cavalry captured me while I was intending to perform Umrah, so what do you advise?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him glad tidings and instructed him to perform Umrah. When he arrived in Makkah, someone said to him, "Have you forsaken your religion?" He replied, "No, rather I have embraced Islam with Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. No, by Allah, not a single grain of wheat will reach you from Yamamah until the Prophet ﷺ permits it."
