[ عَبْدُ الْمُطَّلِبِ فِي الْكَعْبَةَ يَسْتَنْصِرُ بِاَللَّهِ عَلَى رَدِّ أَبْرَهَةَ ] فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفُوا عَنْهُ، انْصَرَفَ عَبْدُ الْمُطَّلِبِ إلَى قُرَيْشٍ، فَأَخْبَرَهُمْ الْخَبَرَ، وَأَمَرَهُمْ بِالْخُرُوجِ مِنْ مَكَّةَ، وَالتَّحَرُّزِ فِي شَعَفِ الْجِبَالِ وَالشِّعَابِ: تَخَوُّفًا عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ مَعَرَّةِ الْجَيْشِ، ثُمَّ قَامَ عَبْدُ الْمُطَّلِبِ، فَأَخَذَ بِحَلْقَةِ بَابِ الْكَعْبَةِ، وَقَامَ مَعَهُ نَفَرٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يَدْعُونَ اللَّهَ، وَيَسْتَنْصِرُونَهُ عَلَى أَبْرَهَةَ وَجُنْدِهِ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الْمُطَّلِبِ وَهُوَ آخِذٌ بِحَلْقَةِ بَابِ الْكَعْبَةِ: : لَا هُمَّ إنَّ الْعَبْدَ يَمْنَعُ رَحْلَهُ فَامْنَعْ حِلَالَكْ لَا يَغْلِبَنَّ صَلِيبُهُمْ وَمِحَالُهُمْ غَدْوًا مِحَالَكْ [ زَادَ الْوَاقِدِيُّ ] إنْ كُنْتَ تَارِكَهُمْ وَقِبْلَتَنَا فَأَمْرٌ مَا بَدَا لَكْ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: هَذَا مَا صَحَّ لَهُ مِنْهَا.
Translation
✧ [ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib in the Kaʿbah seeking Allah's support against repelling Abrahah] When they left him, ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib departed to Quraysh, informed them of the news, and ordered them to leave Makkah and take refuge in the peaks of the mountains and the ravines, fearing for them from the army's harm. Then ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib stood, took hold of the ring of the door of the Kaʿbah, and with him stood a group of Quraysh calling upon Allah and seeking His support against Abrahah and his troops. ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib said while holding the ring of the door of the Kaʿbah: : O Allah, a servant protects his saddle, so protect Your sacred precincts; let not their cross and their cunning ever overcome Your cunning. [Al-Wāqidī added:] If You are to abandon them and our qiblah, then whatever You decree is done. Ibn Hishām said: This is what has been authenticated of it.
