✧ He informed him that he heard Suraqah b. Ju'shum say: "The messengers of the disbelievers of Quraysh came to us, offering a bloodwit for each of the two, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr, to whoever killed or captured them. While I was sitting in one of the gatherings of my people, the Banu Mudlij, a man from among them came and stood over us and said: 'O Suraqah, I have just seen some dark figures by the shore; I think they are Muhammad and his companions.' Suraqah said: 'I knew that they were indeed they, so I said to them: "They are not them; rather I saw so-and-so and so-and-so. Go as seekers."' He said: 'Then I stayed in the gathering only a short while before I got up, entered my house, and ordered my slave girl to bring out my horse, which was behind a hillock, and hold it for me. I took my spear and went out from the back of the house, drawing the butt of the spear on the ground and holding the spearhead high, until I came to my horse and mounted it. I urged it on, and it galloped with me until I saw their two dark figures. When I drew near them, close enough for them to hear my voice, my horse stumbled and I fell off. I got up and reached for my quiver, took out the divining arrows, and drew lots with them, and the one I disliked came out: that I should not harm them. But I disobeyed the arrows and mounted my horse, urging it on until, when I drew near them, I heard the recitation of the Prophet ﷺ, and he was not turning around, while Abu Bakr was turning around often. Then the forelegs of my horse sank into the ground up to the knees, and I fell off. Then I spurred it and rose, and it could hardly pull out its forelegs. When it stood upright, there was a column of smoke rising from the tracks of its forelegs into the sky.'" Abdullah (the transmitter) said: "That is the smoke that appears without fire." "Then I took out the divining arrows and cast lots, and the one I disliked came out: that I should not harm them. So I called out to them for safety, and they stopped. I rode my horse until I came to them. It occurred to me, because of the obstacle I had encountered in reaching them, that the affair of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would prevail. I said to him: 'Your people have set a bloodwit for you.' I told them the news of their journey and what the people intended against them, and I offered them provisions and goods, but they took nothing from me and asked only that I conceal their whereabouts. I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to write for me a document of peace by which I would be safe, and he ordered Amir b. Fuhayrah, the freedman of Abu Bakr, and he wrote it for me on a piece of leather. Then they went on."
