حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثَنَا أَبُو الْبَخْتَرِيُّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ شَاكِرٍ ثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى الْخَزَّازُ ثَنَا عَمُّ أَبِي زَحْرِ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ جَدِّهِ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ مُنْهِبٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ جَدِّي خُرَيْمَ بْنَ أَوْسِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ لَامٍ يَقُولُ هَاجَرْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُنْصَرَفَهُ مِنْ تَبُوكَ فَأَسْلَمْتُ فَسَمِعْتُ الْعَبَّاسَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ يَقُولُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَمْتَدِحَكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «قُلْ لَا يُفَضْفِضُ اللَّهُ فَاكَ» قَالَ فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ [البحر المنسرح] مِنْ قَبْلِهَا طِبْتَ فِي الظِّلَالِ وَفِي مُسْتَوْدَعٍ حَيْثُ يَخْصِفُ الْوَرِقُ ثُمَّ هَبَطَتَ الْبِلَادُ لَا بَشَرٌ أَنْتَ وَلَا مُضْغَةٌ وَلَا عَلَقُ بَلْ نُطْفَةٌ تَرْكَبُ السَّفِينَ وَقَدْ أَلْجَمَ نَسْرًا وَأَهْلَهُ الْغَرَقُ تُنْقَلُ مِنْ صَالبٍ إِلَى رَحِمٍ إِذَا مَضَى عَالَمٌ بَدَا طَبَقُ حَتَّى احْتَوَى بَيْتُكَ الْمُهَيْمِنُ مِنْ خِنْدِفَ عَلْيَاءَ تَحْتَهَا النُّطُقُ وَأَنْتَ لَمَّا وُلِدْتَ أَشْرَقَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَضَاءَتْ بِنُورِكَ الْأُفُقُ فَنَحْنُ فِي ذَلِكَ الضِّيَاءِ وَفِي النُّورِ وَسُبِلِ الرَّشَادِ نَخْتَرِقُ «

✧ I heard my grandfather Khurayim b. Aws b. Harithah b. Lam say: I emigrated to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ upon his return from Tabuk and became Muslim. I heard al-Abbas b. Abd al-Muttalib say: O Messenger of Allah, I wish to praise you. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Speak, may Allah not cause your mouth to chatter.' Al-Abbas then recited: [al-bahr al-munsarih] 'Before it, you were good in the shadows and in the repository where leaves are stitched. Then you descended to the lands; you are not a human, nor a lump of flesh, nor a clot. Rather, a drop that rides the ship, and Nasr and his people were bridled with drowning. You are transferred from loins to wombs; when one world passes, another generation appears. Until your house, the Guardian, encompassed from Khindif the heights beneath which are the girdles. And when you were born, the earth shone and the horizons lit up with your light. So we, in that radiance and in the light and the paths of right guidance, traverse.'

machine translationThis is a hadith whose narrators, the Bedouins, were alone in narrating it from their fathers, and the like of them among the narrators, who do not fabricate.
