The second pledge of al-Aqabah and what occurred therein
أَسَمَاءُ النُّقَبَاءِ الِاثْنَيْ عَشَرَ وَتَمَامُ خَبَرِ الْعَقَبَةِ [ نُقَبَاءُ الْخَزْرَجِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: مِنْ الْخَزْرَجِ - فِيمَا حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَكَّائِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إسْحَاقَ الْمُطَّلِبِيِّ -: أَبُو أُمَامَةَ أَسْعَدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ بْنُ عُدَسَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ النَّجَّارِ وَهُوَ تَيْمُ اللَّهِ بْنُ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، وَسَعْدُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَبِي زُهَيْرِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ ( الْأَكْبَرِ ) بْنِ مَالِكٍ ( الْأَغَرِّ ) بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ بْنِ الْحَادِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ وَرَافِعُ بْنُ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْعَجْلَانِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ زُرَيْقِ بْنِ عَبْدِ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ غَضْبِ بْنِ جُشَمَ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، وَالْبَرَاءُ بْنُ مَعْرُورِ بْنِ صَخْرِ بْنِ خَنْسَاءَ بْنِ سِنَانِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عَدِيِّ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسَدِ بْنِ سَارِدَةَ بْنِ تَزِيدَ بْنِ جُشَمَ، بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَرَامِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ حَرَامِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسَدِ بْنِ سَارِدَةَ بْنِ تَزِيدَ بْنِ جُشَمَ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، وَعُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ بْنِ قَيْسِ، بْنِ أَصْرَمَ بْنِ فِهْرِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: هُوَ غَنْمُ بْنُ عَوْفٍ، أَخُو سَالِمِ بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَسَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ دُلَيْمِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ أَبِي حَزِيمَةَ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ طَرِيفِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ بْنِ سَاعِدَةَ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، وَالْمُنْذِرُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ خُنَيْسِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ لَوْذَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ وُدِّ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ بْنِ سَاعِدَةَ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَيُقَالُ: ابْنُ خُنَيْسٍ [ نُقَبَاءُ الْأَوْسِ ] وَمِنْ الْأَوْسِ: أُسَيْدُ بْنُ حُضَيْرِ بْنِ سِمَاكِ بْنِ عَتِيكِ بْنِ رَافِعِ بْنِ امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْأَشْهَلِ، وَسَعْدُ بْنُ خَيْثَمَةَ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ النَّحَّاطِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ بْنِ غَنْمِ بْنِ السَّلْمِ بْنِ امْرِئِ الْقَيْسِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْأَوْسِ وَرِفَاعَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُنْذِرِ بْنِ زُبَيْرِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكِ بْنِ الْأَوْسِ. [ شِعْرُ كَعْبٍ فِي حَصْرِ النُّقَبَاءِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَأَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ يَعُدُّونَ فِيهِمْ أَبَا الْهَيْثَمِ بْنَ التَّيِّهَانِ، وَلَا يَعُدُّونَ رِفَاعَةَ. وَقَالَ كَعْبُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ يَذْكُرُهُمْ، فِيمَا أَنْشَدَنِي أَبُو زَيْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ: : أَبْلِغْ أُبَيًّا أَنَّهُ فَالَ رَأْيُهُ وَحَانَ غَدَاةَ الشِّعْبِ وَالْحَيْنُ وَاقِعُ أَبَى اللَّهُ مَا مَنَّتْكَ نَفْسُكَ إنَّهُ بِمِرْصَادِ أَمْرِ النَّاسِ رَاءٍ وَسَامِعُ وَأَبْلِغْ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ أَنْ قَدْ بَدَا لَنَا بِأَحْمَدَ نُورٌ مِنْ هُدَى اللَّهِ سَاطِعُ فَلَا تَرْغَبَنْ فِي حَشْدِ أَمْرٍ تُرِيدُهُ وَأَلِّبْ وَجَمِّعْ كُلَّ مَا أَنْتَ جَامِعُ وَدُونَكَ فَاعْلُمْ أَنَّ نَقْضَ عُهُودِنَا أَبَاهُ عَلَيْكَ الرَّهْطُ حِينَ تَتَابَعُوا أَبَاهُ الْبَرَاءُ وَابْنُ عَمْرٍو كِلَاهُمَا وَأَسْعَدُ يَأْبَاهُ عَلَيْكَ وَرَافِعُ وَسَعْدٌ أَبَاهُ السَّاعِدِيُّ وَمُنْذِرٌ لِأَنْفِكَ إنْ حَاوَلْتَ ذَلِكَ جَادِعُ وَمَا ابْنُ رَبِيعٍ إنْ تَنَاوَلْتَ عَهْدَهُ بِمُسْلِمِهِ لَا يَطْمَعَنْ ثَمَّ طَامِعُ وَأَيْضًا فَلَا يُعْطِيكَهُ ابْنُ رَوَاحَةَ وَإِخْفَارُهُ مِنْ دُونِهِ السُّمُّ نَاقِعُ وَفَاءً بِهِ وَالْقَوْقَلِيُّ بْنُ صَامِتٍ بِمَنْدُوحَةِ عَمَّا تُحَاوِلُ يَافِعُ أَبُو هَيْثَمٍ أَيْضًا وَفِيٌّ بِمِثْلِهَا وَفَاءً بِمَا أَعْطَى مِنْ الْعَهْدِ خَانِعُ وَمَا ابْنُ حُضَيْرٍ إنْ أَرَدْتَ، بِمَطْمَعِ فَهَلْ أَنْتَ عَنْ أُحْمُوقَةِ الْغَيِّ نَازِعُ وَسَعْدٌ أَخُو عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ فَإِنَّهُ ضَرُوحٌ لِمَا حَاوَلْتَ مِلْأَمْرِ مَانِعُ أُولَاكَ نُجُومٌ لَا يُغِبُّكَ مِنْهُمْ عَلَيْكَ بِنَحْسٍ فِي دُجَى اللَّيْلِ طَالِعُ فَذَكَرَ كَعْبٌ فِيهِمْ أَبَا الْهَيْثَمِ بْنَ التَّيِّهَانِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ رِفَاعَةَ. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: فَحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِلنُّقَبَاءِ: أَنْتُمْ عَلَى قَوْمِكُمْ بِمَا فِيهِمْ كُفَلَاءُ، كَكَفَالَةِ الْحَوَارِيِّينَ لِعِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ، وَأَنَا كَفِيلٌ عَلَى قَوْمِي - يَعْنِي الْمُسْلِمِينَ - قَالُوا: نَعَمْ عَنْ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ الْأَنْصَارُ لَيْلَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ سَبْعِينَ رَجُلًا، وَكَانَ نُقَبَاؤُهُمُ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ نَقِيبًا تِسْعَةٌ مِنَ الْخَزْرَجِ وَثَلَاثَةٌ مِنَ الْأَوْسِ. وَحَدَّثَنِي شَيْخٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ كَانَ يُشِيرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى مَنْ يَجْعَلُهُ نَقِيبًا لَيْلَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ، وَكَانَ أُسَيْدُ بْنُ حُضَيْرٍ أَحَدَ النُّقَبَاءِ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ. وَقَالَ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ: فَحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ، قَالَ لِلنُّقَبَاءِ: " أَنْتُمْ عَلَى قَوْمِكُمْ بِمَا فِيهِمْ كُفَلَاءُ كَكَفَالَةِ الْحَوَارِيِّينَ لِعِيسَى بْنِ مَرْيَمَ، وَأَنَا كَفِيلٌ عَلَى قَوْمِي ". قَالُوا: نَعَمْ.

Ibn Hishām said: He is Ghanm b. ʿAwf, the brother of Sālim b. ʿAwf b. ʿAmr b. ʿAwf b. al-Khazraj. Ibn Isḥāq said: And Saʿd b. ʿUbādah b. Dulaym b. Ḥārithah b. Abī Ḥazīmah b. Thaʿlabah b. Ṭarīf b. al-Khazraj b. Sāʿidah b. Kaʿb b. al-Khazraj; and al-Mundhir b. ʿAmr b. Khunays b. Ḥārithah b. Lawdhān b. ʿAbd Wudd b. Zayd b. Thaʿlabah b. al-Khazraj b. Sāʿidah b. Kaʿb b. al-Khazraj. Ibn Hishām said: And it is said: ibn Khunays. [The naqībs of al-Aws] And from al-Aws: Usayd b. Ḥuḍayr b. Simāk b. ʿAtīk b. Rāfiʿ b. Imriʾ al-Qays b. Zayd b. ʿAbd al-Ashhal; and Saʿd b. Khaythamah b. al-Ḥārith b. Mālik b. Kaʿb b. al-Naḥḥāṭ b. Kaʿb b. Ḥārithah b. Ghanm b. al-Salm b. Imriʾ al-Qays b. Mālik b. al-Aws; and Rifāʿah b. ʿAbd al-Mundhir b. Zubayr b. Zayd b. Umayyah b. Zayd b. Mālik b. ʿAwf b. ʿAmr b. ʿAwf b. Mālik b. al-Aws. [Kaʿb's poem enumerating the naqībs] Ibn Hishām said: The people of knowledge count among them Abū al-Haytham b. al-Tayyihān, and do not count Rifāʿah. Kaʿb b. Mālik said, mentioning them, in what Abū Zayd al-Anṣārī recited to me: : Convey to Ubayy that his judgment has failed, And that the morning of the mountain pass has arrived, and ruin is befalling. Allāh has refused what your soul has beguiled you with; for He Is watching and hearing over the affairs of people, lying in wait. And convey to Abū Sufyān that there has appeared to us In Aḥmad a light from Allāh's guidance, shining brightly. So do not desire to muster a matter you seek, And incite and gather all that you are gathering. And know that the breaking of our covenants Was refused to you by the company when they followed one another. Al-Barāʾ refused it to you, and Ibn ʿAmr, both of them, And Asʿad refuses it to you, and Rāfiʿ. And Saʿd al-Sāʿidī refused it, and Mundhir, Would cut off your nose if you attempted that. And Ibn Rabīʿ, if you reach for his covenant, Will not surrender it; let no one there be covetous. And likewise Ibn Rawāḥah will not give it to you; His betrayal of it would be as poison, to be drunk. In fulfillment of it, and al-Qawqalī b. Ṣāmit, Are averse to what you attempt, elevated. Abū Haytham too is faithful to the like of it, In fulfillment of what he gave of the covenant, humbly. And Ibn Ḥuḍayr, if you desire it, is not to be coveted; So will you desist from the foolishness of error? And Saʿd, the brother of ʿAmr b. ʿAwf, for he is A fierce defender against what you attempt, preventing the matter. Those are stars whose misguidance will not leave you; Upon you in the darkness of night, a star of ill omen rises. Thus Kaʿb mentioned among them Abū al-Haytham b. al-Tayyihān and did not mention Rifāʿah. Ibn Isḥāq said: ʿAbd Allāh b. Abī Bakr narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the naqībs: "You are, over your people and regarding what is in them, guarantors, like the guaranty of the disciples to ʿĪsā son of Maryam, and I am a guarantor over my people" — meaning the Muslims. They said: "Yes," on the authority of Mālik. He said: The Anṣār on the night of al-ʿAqabah were seventy men, and their naqībs were twelve naqībs: nine from al-Khazraj and three from al-Aws. And a shaykh from the Anṣār narrated to me that Jibrīl was indicating to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ whom he should appoint as a naqīb on the night of al-ʿAqabah, and Usayd b. Ḥuḍayr was one of the naqībs that night. And Ibn Isḥāq said: ʿAbd Allāh b. Abī Bakr narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the naqībs: "You are, over your people and regarding what is in them, guarantors, like the guaranty of the disciples to ʿĪsā son of Maryam, and I am a guarantor over my people." They said: "Yes."
