The account of the pact and what occurred in its story and its annulment
حَدِيثُ نَقْضِ الصَّحِيفَةِ [ بَلَاءُ هِشَامِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو فِي نَقْضِ الصَّحِيفَةِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَبَنُو هَاشِمٍ وَبَنُو الْمُطَّلِبِ فِي مَنْزِلِهِمْ الَّذِي تَعَاقَدَتْ فِيهِ قُرَيْشٌ عَلَيْهِمْ فِي الصَّحِيفَةِ الَّتِي كَتَبُوهَا، ثُمَّ إنَّهُ قَامَ فِي نَقْضِ تِلْكَ الصَّحِيفَةِ الَّتِي تَكَاتَبَتْ فِيهَا قُرَيْشٌ عَلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَبَنِيَّ الْمُطَّلِبِ نَفَرٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، وَلَمْ يُبْلَ فِيهَا أَحَدٌ أَحْسَنَ مِنْ بَلَاءِ هِشَامِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ حَبِيبِ بْنِ نَصْرِ بْنِ ( جَذِيمَةَ ) بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ حِسْلِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ لُؤَيٍّ، وَذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ ابْنَ أَخِي نَضْلَةَ بْنِ هَاشِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ مَنَافٍ لِأُمِّهِ، فَكَانَ هِشَامٌ لِبَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَاصَلًا، وَكَانَ ذَا شَرَفٍ فِي قَوْمِهِ، فَكَانَ - فِيمَا بَلَغَنِي - يَأْتِي بِالْبَعِيرِ، وَبَنُو هَاشِمٍ وَبَنُو الْمُطَّلِبِ فِي الشِّعْبِ لَيْلًا، قَدْ أَوْقَرَهُ طَعَامًا، حَتَّى إذَا أَقْبَلَ بِهِ فَمَ الشِّعْبِ خَلَعَ خِطَامَهُ مِنْ رَأْسِهِ، ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ عَلَى جَنْبِهِ، فَيَدْخُلُ الشِّعْبَ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ يَأْتِي بِهِ قَدْ أَوْقَرَهُ بَزًّا، فَيَفْعَلُ بِهِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ.
Translation
✧ The account of the annulment of the pact [The trial of Hishām b. ʿAmr in the annulment of the pact] Ibn Isḥāq said: The Banū Hāshim and the Banū al-Muṭṭalib were in their abode, the one in which Quraysh had covenanted against them in the pact that they had written. Then a group of men from Quraysh arose to annul that pact which Quraysh had written against the Banū Hāshim and the Banū al-Muṭṭalib, and no one strove in it with a trial better than the trial of Hishām b. ʿAmr b. Rabīʿa b. al-Ḥārith b. Ḥabīb b. Naṣr b. (Judhayma) b. Mālik b. Ḥisl b. ʿĀmir b. Luʾayy. That is because he was the son of the brother of Naḍla b. Hāshim b. ʿAbd Manāf on his mother's side. So Hishām was a maintainer of ties for the Banū Hāshim, and he was a man of nobility among his people. He would—as I have been told—bring a camel at night, while the Banū Hāshim and the Banū al-Muṭṭalib were in the mountain pass, having loaded it with food, until when he brought it to the mouth of the pass, he would remove its halter from its head, then strike its flank, and it would enter the pass upon them. Then he would bring one loaded with cloth, and he would do with it the like of that.
