The Prophet's ﷺ open proclamation to his people and their response
[ خُرُوجُ الرَّسُولِ ﷺ بِأَصْحَابِهِ إلَى شِعَابِ مَكَّةَ، وَمَا فَعَلَهُ سَعْدٌ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَكَانَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إذَا صَلَّوْا، ذَهَبُوا فِي الشِّعَابِ، فَاسْتَخْفَوْا بِصَلَاتِهِمْ مِنْ قَوْمِهِمْ، فَبَيْنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي شِعْبٍ مِنْ شِعَابِ مَكَّةَ، إذْ ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِمْ نَفَرٌ مِنْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَهُمْ يُصَلُّونَ، فَنَاكَرُوهُمْ، وَعَابُوا عَلَيْهِمْ مَا يَصْنَعُونَ حَتَّى قَاتَلُوهُمْ، فَضَرَبَ سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ رَجُلًا مِنْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِلَحْيِ بَعِيرٍ، فَشَجَّهُ، فَكَانَ أَوَّلَ دَمٍ أُهْرِيقَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ.
Translation
✧ [ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ going out with his companions to the ravines of Makkah, and what Saʿd did ] Ibn Isḥāq said: The companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when they prayed, went into the ravines and concealed their prayer from their people. While Saʿd b. Abī Waqqāṣ was among a group of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in one of the ravines of Makkah, a group of the polytheists came upon them while they were praying. They reproached them and found fault with what they were doing until they fought them. On that day Saʿd b. Abī Waqqāṣ struck a man from the polytheists with the jawbone of a camel and gashed his head. It was the first blood shed in Islam.
