Then the Year Ninety of the Hijrah Began
تَيَاذُوقُ الطَّبِيبُ الْحَاذِقُ وَفِيهَا تُوُفِّيَ مِنَ الْأَعْيَانِ تَيَاذُوقُ الطَّبِيبُ الْحَاذِقُ لَهُ مُصَنَّفَاتٌ فِي فَنِّهِ، وَكَانَ حَظِيًّا عِنْدَ الْحَجَّاجِ، مَاتَ فِي حُدُودِ سَنَةِ تِسْعِينَ بِوَاسِطٍ. عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ وَسِنَانُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْمُحَبَّقِ وَفِيهَا تُوُفِّيَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ، وَسِنَانُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْمُحَبَّقِ، أَحَدُ الشُّجْعَانِ الْمَذْكُورِينَ، أَسْلَمَ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ، وَتَوَلَّى غَزْوَ الْهِنْدِ، وَطَالَ عُمْرُهُ. مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الثَّقَفِيُّ وَتُوُفِّيَ فِي هَذِهِ السَّنَةِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الثَّقَفِيُّ أَخُو الْحَجَّاجِ، وَكَانَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى الْيَمَنِ وَكَانَ يَلْعَنُ عَلِيًّا عَلَى الْمَنَابِرِ. قِيلَ: إِنَّهُ أَمَرَ حُجْرًا الْمَدَرِيَّ أَنْ يَلْعَنَ عَلِيًّا. فَقَالَ: بَلْ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَلْعَنُ عَلِيًّا، وَلَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى مَنْ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ. وَقِيلَ: إِنَّهُ وَرَّى فِي لَعْنِهِ. فَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ. عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ سَلِيمٍ الْأَسَدِيُّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ سَلِيمٍ الْأَسَدِيُّ، الشَّاعِرُ أَبُو كَثِيرٍ وَيُقَالُ: أَبُو سَعْدٍ. وَهُوَ مَشْهُورٌ، وَفَدَ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ فَامْتَدَحَهُ، فَلَمْ يُعْطِهِ شَيْئًا، فَقَالَ: لَعَنَ اللَّهُ نَاقَةً حَمَلَتْنِي إِلَيْكَ. فَقَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ: إِنْ وَصَاحِبَهَا. يُقَالُ: إِنَّهُ مَاتَ فِي زَمَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ. أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ فِيهَا مَاتَ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ، وَقِيلَ: وَتِسْعِينَ، وَقِيلَ: ثَلَاثَ وَتِسْعِينَ، وَكَانَ عُمُرُهُ سِتًّا وَتِسْعِينَ سَنَةً، وَقِيلَ: مِائَةً وَسِتَ سِنِينَ، وَقِيلَ: وَسَبْعَ، وَقِيلَ: وَثَلَاثَ. نَصْرُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ النَّحْوِيُّ وَفِيهَا تُوُفِّيَ نَصْرُ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ النَّحْوِيُّ، أَخَذَ النَّحْوَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ الدُّؤَلِيِّ. رَفِيعٌ أَبُو الْعَالِيَةِ الرِّيَاحِيُّ رَفِيعٌ أَبُو الْعَالِيَةِ الرِّيَاحِيُّ: أَعْتَقَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي رِيَاحٍ. قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَمْلُوكًا لِأَعْرَابِيَّةٍ، فَدَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ مَعَهَا، فَوَافَيْنَا الْإِمَامَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، فَقَبَضَتْ عَلَى يَدِي وَقَالَتْ: اللَّهُمَّ أَذْخِرْهُ عِنْدَكَ ذَخِيرَةً، اشْهَدُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْمَسْجِدِ أَنَّهُ سَائِبَةٌ لِلَّهِ، ثُمَّ ذَهَبَتْ، فَمَا تَرَاءَيْنَا بَعْدُ. أَسْنَدَ أَبُو الْعَالِيَةِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرَ، وَعَلِيٍّ، وَأَبِي، وَأَبِي مُوسَى، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ. وَكَانَ عَالِمًا ثِقَةً. وعَنْ عَاصِمٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ أَبُو الْعَالِيَةِ إِذَا جَلَسَ إِلَيْهِ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ أَرْبَعَةٍ قَامَ. أَبُو الْخَيْرِ الْكُلَاعِيُّ الْيَزَنِيُّ مَرْثَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَبُو الْخَيْرِ الْكُلَاعِيُّ الْيَزَنِيُّ: يَرْوِي عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، وَزَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، وَعُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، وَمَالِكِ بْنِ هُبَيْرَةَ، وَعَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، وَغَيْرِهِمْ. وَكَانَ مُفْتِي أَهْلِ مِصْرَ فِي أَيَّامِهِ. خَالِدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ خَالِدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ: كَانَ مِنْ رِجَالَاتِ قُرَيْشٍ وَالْمَعْدُودِينَ مِنْ كُبَرَائِهِمْ سَخَاءً وَفَصَاحَةً وَعَقْلًا. وَكَانَ قَدْ شَغَلَ نَفْسَهُ بِعَمَلِ الْكِيمْيَاءِ، فَضَاعَ زَمَانُهُ. وَكَانَ مَرْوَانُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ قَدْ تَزَوَّجَ أُمَّهُ أُمَّ خَالِدٍ لِأَجْلِ أَنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَى خَالِدٍ لِمَكَانِ أَبِيهِ، وَكَانَ مَرْوَانُ يُطْمِعُهُ فِي بَعْضِ الْأَمْرِ ثُمَّ بَدَا لَهُ فَعَقَدَ لِابْنَيْهِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ وَعَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، وَأَخَذَ يَضَعُ مِنْ خَالِدٍ حَتَّى شَتَمَهُ يَوْمًا وَذَكَرَ أُمَّهُ بِالْقُبْحِ - عَلَى مَا ذَكَرْنَا فِي أَخْبَارِ مَرْوَانَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ - فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ سَبَبَ قَتْلِ مَرْوَانَ. وَعَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ مَعْمَرُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ: حَجَّ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ وَحَجَّ مَعَهُ خَالِدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، وَكَانَ مِنْ رِجَالَاتِ قُرَيْشٍ الْمَعْدُودِينَ وَعُلَمَائِهِمْ. وَكَانَ عَظِيمَ الْقَدْرِ عِنْدَ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ. فَبَيْنَا هُوَ يَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ إِذْ بَصُرَ بِرَمَلَةَ بِنْتِ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ الْعَوَّامِ فَعَشِقَهَا عِشْقًا شَدِيدًا، وَوَقَعَتْ بِقَلْبِهِ وُقُوعًا مُتَمَكِّنًا. فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ الْقُفُولَ هَمَّ خَالِدٌ بِالتَّخَلُّفِ عَنْهُ، فَوَقَعَ بِقَلْبِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ تَهْمُهُ، فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، رَمَلْةُ بِنْتُ الزُّبَيْرِ رَأَيْتُهَا تَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ قَدْ أَذْهَبَتْ عَقْلِي، وَاللَّهِ مَا أَبْدَيْتُ لَكَ مَا بِي حَتَّى عِيلَ صَبْرِي، فَلَقَدْ عَرَضْتُ النَّوْمَ عَلَى عَيْنِي فَلَمْ تَقْبَلْهُ، وَالسُّلُوَّ عَلَى قَلْبِي فَامْتَنَعَ مِنْهُ، فَأَطَالَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ التَّعَجُّبَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ: مَا كُنْتُ أَقُولُ إِنَّ الْهَوَى يَسْتَأْسِرُ مِثْلَكَ، فَقَالَ: وَإِنِّي لَأَشَدُّ تَعَجُّبًا مِنْ تَعَجُّبِكَ مِنِّي، وَلَقَدْ كُنْتُ أَقُولُ إِنَّ الْهَوَى لَا يَتَمَكَّنُ إِلَّا مِنْ صِنْفَيْنِ مِنَ النَّاسِ: الشُّعَرَاءُ، وَالْأَعْرَابُ. فَأَمَّا الشُّعَرَاءُ فَإِنَّهُمْ أَلْزَمُوا قُلُوبَهُمُ الْفِكْرَ فِي النِّسَاءِ وَالْغَزَلِ، فَمَالَ طَمَعُهُمْ إِلَى النِّسَاءِ، فَضَعُفَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ عَنْ دَفْعِ الْهَوَى فَاسْتَسْلَمُوا لَهُ مُنْقَادِينَ. وَأَمَّا الْأَعْرَابُ، فَإِنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ يَخْلُو بِامْرَأَتِهِ فَلَا يَكُونُ الْغَالِبُ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُ حُبِّهِ لَهَا، وَلَا يَشْغَلُهُ شَيْءٌ عَنْهُ، فَضَعُفُوا عَنْ دَفْعِ الْهَوَى، فَتَمَكَّنَ مِنْهُمْ. وَجُمْلَةُ أَمْرِي مَا رَأَيْتُ نَظْرَةً حَالَتْ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ الْحَرَمِ، وَحَسَنَّتْ عِنْدِي رُكُوبَ الْإِثْمِ مِثْلَ نَظْرَتِي هَذِهِ. فَتَبَسَّمَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ وَقَالَ: أَوَ كُلُّ هَذَا قَدْ بَلَغَ بِكَ، فَقَالَ: وَاللَّهِ مَا عَرَفَتْنِي هَذِهِ الْبَلِيَّةُ قَبْلَ وَقْتِي هَذَا، فَوَجَّهَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ إِلَى آلِ الزُّبَيْرِ يَخْطُبُ رَمْلَةَ عَلَى خَالِدٍ، فَذَكَرُوا لَهَا ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ: لَا وَاللَّهِ، أَوْ يُطَلِّقُ نِسَاءَهُ، فَطَلَّقَ امْرَأَتَيْنِ كَانَتَا عِنْدَهُ، إِحْدَاهُمَا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَالْأُخْرَى مِنَ الْأَزْدِ، وَظَعَنَ بِهَا إِلَى الشَّامِ. وَفِيهَا يَقُولُ: أَلَيْسَ يَزِيدُ الشَّوْقُ فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ وَفِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِنْ حَبِيبَتِنَا قُرْبَا خَلِيلَيَّ مَا مِنْ سَاعَةٍ تَذْكُرَانِهَا مِنَ الدَّهْرِ إِلَّا فَرَّجَتْ عَنِّيَ الْكَرْبَا أُحِبُّ بَنِي الْعَوَامِّ طُرًّا لِحُبِّهَا وَمِنْ أَجْلِهَا أَحْبَبْتُ أَخْوَالَهَا كَلْبَا تَجُولُ خَلَاخِيلُ النِّسَاءِ وَلَا أَرَى لِرَمْلَةَ خَلْخَالًا يَجُولُ وَلَا قَلْبَا وَقَدْ زَادَ بَعْضُ أَعْدَائِهِ فِي هَذِهِ الْأَبْيَاتِ: فَإِنْ تُسْلِمِي نُسْلِمْ وَإِنْ تَتَنَصَّرِي يَخُطُّ رِجَالٌ بَيْنَ أَعْيُنِهِمْ صُلْبَا فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ الْبَيْتَ قَالَ مَنْ قَالَهُ: لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ [عَلَيْهِ] وَعَلَى مَنْ يُجِيبُهُ. قَالَ: الزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ، دَخَلَتْ رَمْلَةُ بِنْتُ الزُّبَيْرِ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ، وَكَانَتْ عِنْدَ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، فَقَالَ لَهَا: يَا رَمْلَةُ، غَرَّنِي عُرْوَةُ مِنْكِ، فَقَالَتْ: لَمْ يَغْرُرْكَ وَلَكِنْ نَصَحَكَ، إِنَّكَ قَتَلْتَ مُصْعَبًا أَخِي، فَلَمْ يَأْمَنِّي عَلَيْكَ. وَكَانَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا، فَقَالَ لَهُ عُرْوَةُ: لَا أَرَى ذَلِكَ لَكَ. وَكَانَ الْحَجَّاجُ قَدْ بَعَثَ إِلَى خَالِدٍ: مَا كُنْتُ أَرَاكَ تَخْطُبُ إِلَى آلِ الزُّبَيْرِ حَتَّى تُشَاوِرَنِي، فَكَيْفَ خَطَبَتْ إِلَى قَوْمٍ لَيْسُوا بِأَكْفَائِكَ، وَهُمُ الَّذِينَ نَازَعُوا أَبَاكَ عَلَى الْخِلَافَةِ وَرَمَوْهُ بِكُلِّ قَبِيحَةٍ. فَقَالَ لِرَسُولِهِ: ارْجِعْ فَقُلْ لَهُ: مَا كُنْتُ أَرَى أَنَّ الْأُمُورَ بَلَغَتْ بِكَ إِلَى أَنْ أُؤَامِرَكَ فِي خُطْبَةِ النِّسَاءِ، وَأَمَّا قَوْلُكَ: نَازَعُوا أَبَاكَ وَشَهِدُوا عَلَيْهِ بِالْقَبِيحِ، فَإِنَّهَا قُرَيْشٌ تَتَقَارَعُ، فَإِذَا أَقَرَّ اللَّهُ الْحَقَّ مَقَرَّهُ تَعَاطَفُوا وَتَرَاحَمُوا. وَأَمَّا قَوْلُكَ: لَيْسُوا لَكَ بِأَكْفَاءَ. فَقَبَّحَكَ اللَّهُ يَا حَجَّاجُ مَا أَقَلَّ عِلْمَكَ بِأَنْسَابِ قُرَيْشٍ، أَيَكُونُ الْعَوَامُّ كُفْؤًا لِعَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ هَاشِمٍ حَتَّى يَتَزَوَّجَ صَفِيَّةَ وَيَتَزَوَّجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَدِيجَةَ، وَلَا تَرَاهُمْ أَكْفَاءَ لِأَبِي سُفْيَانَ. وَلَمَّا قَدِمَ الْحَجَّاجُ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ مَرَّ بِخَالِدٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ: مَنْ هَذَا؟ فَقَالَ خَالِدٌ كَالْمُسْتَهْزِئِ بِهِ: هَذَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ فَرَجَعَ الْحَجَّاجُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ: مَا أَنَا بِعَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ وَلَكِنِّي ابْنُ الْغَطَارِيفِ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ، وَالْعَقَائِلِ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، وَلَقَدْ ضَرَبْتُ بِسَيْفِي هَذَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مِائَةِ أَلْفٍ كُلُّهُمْ يَشْهَدُ أَنَّ أَبَاكَ وَأَنْتَ وَجَدُّكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ، ثُمَّ لَمْ آخُذْ لِذَلِكَ عِنْدَكَ شُكْرًا. وَقِيلَ كَانَتْ وَفَاتُهُ فِي هَذَا الْعَامِ، وَقِيلَ فِي سَنَةِ أَرْبَعٍ وَثَمَانِينَ، وَقِيلَ تُوَفِّيَ سَنَةَ ثِنْتَيْنِ وَثَمَانِينَ. وَالصَّحِيحُ الْأَوَّلُ.

Naṣr b. ʿĀṣim al-Laythī the grammarian In it died Naṣr b. ʿĀṣim al-Laythī the grammarian. He took grammar from Abū al-Aswad al-Duʾalī. Rafīʿ Abū al-ʿĀliyah al-Riyāḥī Rafīʿ Abū al-ʿĀliyah al-Riyāḥī: A woman of Banū Riyāḥ freed him. He said: I was a slave belonging to a Bedouin woman. I entered the mosque with her, and we found the imam on the pulpit. She took hold of my hand and said: O God, store him with You as a treasure. Bear witness, O people of the mosque, that he is a freed slave for God. Then she went away, and we never saw each other again. Abū al-ʿĀliyah transmitted from Abū Bakr, ʿUmar, ʿAlī, Ubayy, Abū Mūsā, Abū Hurayrah, and Ibn ʿAbbās. He was a learned and trustworthy man. From ʿĀṣim, who said: When more than four people sat with Abū al-ʿĀliyah, he would get up. Abū al-Khayr al-Kulāʿī al-Yazanī Marthad b. ʿAbd Allāh, Abū al-Khayr al-Kulāʿī al-Yazanī: He narrated from Abū Ayyūb al-Anṣārī, Zayd b. Thābit, ʿUqbah b. ʿĀmir, Mālik b. Hubayrah, ʿAmr b. al-ʿĀṣ, and others. He was the mufti of the people of Egypt in his time. Khālid b. Yazīd b. Muʿāwiyah b. Abī Sufyān Khālid b. Yazīd b. Muʿāwiyah b. Abī Sufyān: He was one of the notable men of Quraysh and counted among their great ones in generosity, eloquence, and intellect. He had occupied himself with the practice of alchemy, and so his time was wasted. Marwān b. al-Ḥakam had married his mother, Umm Khālid, because people looked to Khālid on account of his father. Marwān used to give him hope of some authority, but then he changed his mind and pledged allegiance to his two sons, ʿAbd al-Malik and ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz. He began to belittle Khālid until one day he insulted him and mentioned his mother with ugliness—as we have mentioned in the accounts of Marwān b. al-Ḥakam—and that was the cause of Marwān's killing. From Abū ʿUbaydah Maʿmar b. al-Muthannā, who said: ʿAbd al-Malik b. Marwān performed the pilgrimage, and with him performed the pilgrimage Khālid b. Yazīd b. Muʿāwiyah. He was among the notable men of Quraysh and their scholars, and he had great standing with ʿAbd al-Malik. While he was circumambulating the House, he caught sight of Ramlah bt. al-Zubayr b. al-ʿAwwām and fell passionately in love with her, a love that took firm hold of his heart. When ʿAbd al-Malik wanted to depart, Khālid resolved to stay behind. Suspicion fell upon ʿAbd al-Malik's heart, so he sent to him asking about his affair. He said: O Commander of the Faithful, Ramlah bt. al-Zubayr—I saw her circumambulating the House, and she has robbed me of my reason. By God, I did not reveal to you what is in me until my patience was exhausted. I offered sleep to my eye and it would not accept it, and I offered consolation to my heart and it refused it. ʿAbd al-Malik marveled long at that and said: I would not have said that passion could take captive one like you. He said: I am even more amazed at your amazement at me. I used to say that passion takes firm hold only of two kinds of people: poets and Bedouins. As for poets, they forced their hearts to think of women and love poetry, so their desire inclined toward women, and their hearts became too weak to repel passion, so they surrendered to it submissively. As for Bedouins, one of them is alone with his wife, and nothing overcomes him except his love for her, and nothing distracts him from it, so they became too weak to repel passion, and it took hold of them. The sum of my affair is that I have never seen a glance that came between me and the sanctuary and made the committing of sin seem good to me like this glance of mine. ʿAbd al-Malik smiled and said: Has all this reached you? He said: By God, this affliction did not know me before this time of mine. ʿAbd al-Malik sent to the family of al-Zubayr to ask for Ramlah's hand for Khālid. They mentioned that to her and she said: No, by God, unless he divorces his wives. So he divorced two wives who were with him, one of them from Quraysh and the other from al-Azd, and he departed with her to Syria. About her he says: Does not longing increase every night and every day for nearness to our beloved? My two friends, there is no hour in which you remember her of all time but it relieves my distress. I love all Banū al-ʿAwwām for love of her, and for her sake I have loved her maternal uncles, Kalb. The anklets of women jingle, but I do not see for Ramlah an anklet that jingles, nor a heart. Some of his enemies added to these verses: If you submit, we submit, and if you become Christian, men will draw a cross between their eyes. When he heard the verse, the one who said it said: The curse of God [upon him] and upon whoever answers him. Al-Zubayr b. Bakkār said: Ramlah bt. al-Zubayr entered upon ʿAbd al-Malik b. Marwān. She was married to Khālid b. Yazīd b. Muʿāwiyah. He said to her: O Ramlah, ʿUrwah deceived me about you. She said: He did not deceive you, but he counseled you. You killed Muṣʿab, my brother, so he did not trust me with you. ʿAbd al-Malik had wanted to marry her, but ʿUrwah said to him: I do not see that for you. Al-Ḥajjāj had sent to Khālid: I would not have thought you would seek marriage with the family of al-Zubayr without consulting me. How is it that you sought marriage with a people who are not your equals? They are the ones who contended with your father for the caliphate and accused him of every ugly thing. He said to his messenger: Go back and tell him: I would not have thought that matters had reached such a point with you that I must consult you about seeking women in marriage. As for your saying that they contended with your father and testified against him with ugliness, they are Quraysh who contend with one another, but when God establishes the truth in its place, they show mutual affection and mercy. As for your saying: They are not equals for you. May God make you ugly, O Ḥajjāj, how little you know of the lineages of Quraysh! Is al-ʿAwwām an equal of ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib b. Hāshim, so that he married Ṣafiyyah, and the Messenger of God ﷺ married Khadījah, and yet you do not consider them equals of Abū Sufyān? When al-Ḥajjāj came to ʿAbd al-Malik, he passed by Khālid. A man said to him: Who is this? Khālid said, as if mocking him: This is ʿAmr b. al-ʿĀṣ. Al-Ḥajjāj returned to him and said: I am not ʿAmr b. al-ʿĀṣ, but I am the son of the nobles of Thaqīf and the noble women of Quraysh. I have struck with this sword of mine more than a hundred thousand, all of whom testify that your father, you, and your grandfather are among the people of the Fire. Then I received no gratitude from you for that. It is said that his death was in this year, and it is said in the year eighty-four, and it is said he died in the year eighty-two. The correct view is the first.
