أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ الْمُؤَدِّبِ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي موْلَايَ

أَنَّ أَهْلَهُ بَعَثُوا مَعَهُ بِقَدَحٍ فِيهِ زُبْدٌ وَلَبَنٌ إِلَى آلِهَتِهِمْ قالَ فَمَنَعَنِي أَنْ آكُلَ الزُّبْدَ لِمَخَافَتِهَا قَالَ فَجَاءَ كَلْبٌ فَأَكَلَ الزُّبْدَ وَشَرِبَ اللَّبَنَ ثُمَّ بَالَ عَلَى الصَّنَمِ وَهُوَ إِسَافٌ وَنَائِلَةُ

✧ That his family sent with him a bowl containing butter and milk to their gods. He said, “It prevented me from eating the butter out of fear of them.” He said, “Then a dog came, ate the butter, drank the milk, and then urinated on the idol—and it was Isāf and Nāʾilah.”

Notes

  • قَالَ هَارُونُ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ إِذَا سَافَرَ حَمَلَ مَعَهُ أَرْبَعَةَ أَحْجَارٍ ثَلَاثَةٌ لِقِدْرِهِ وَالرَّابِعُ يَعْبُدُهُ وَيُرَبِّي كَلْبَهُ وَيَقْتُلُ وَلَدَهُ
