Sirat Ibn Hisham 1082
حَدِيثُ بِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ فِي صَفَرٍ سَنَةَ أَرْبَعٍ [ بَعْثُ بِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: فَأَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَقِيَّةَ شَوَّالٍ وَذَا الْقَعْدَةِ وَذَا الْحِجَّةِ - وَوَلِيَ تِلْكَ الْحِجَّةَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ وَالْمُحَرَّمَ -، ثُمَّ بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَصْحَابَ بِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ فِي صَفَرٍ، عَلَى رَأْسِ أَرْبَعَةِ أَشْهُرٍ مِنْ أُحُدٍ. [ سَبَبُ إرْسَالِهِ ] وَكَانَ مِنْ حَدِيثِهِمْ، كَمَا حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي إسْحَاقُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ عَنْ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، وَغَيْرُهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ، قَالُوا: قَدِمَ أَبُو بَرَاءٍ عَامِرُ بْنُ مَالِكِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ مُلَاعِبُ الْأَسِنَّةِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَعَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْإِسْلَامَ، وَدَعَاهُ إلَيْهِ، فَلَمْ يُسْلِمْ وَلَمْ يَبْعُدْ مِنْ الْإِسْلَامِ، وَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ، لَوْ بَعَثْتَ رِجَالًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِكَ إلَى أَهْلِ نَجْدٍ، فَدَعَوْهُمْ إلَى أَمْرِكَ، رَجَوْتُ أَنْ يَسْتَجِيبُوا لَكَ؛ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: إنِّي أَخْشَى عَلَيْهِمْ أَهْلَ نَجْدٍ، قَالَ أَبُو بَرَاءٍ. أَنَا لَهُمْ جَارٍ، فَابْعَثْهُمْ فَلْيَدْعُوا النَّاسَ إلَى أَمْرِكَ. [ رِجَالُ الْبَعْثِ ] فَبَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمُنْذِرَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو، أَخَا بَنِي سَاعِدَةَ، الْمُعْنِقَ لِيَمُوتَ فِي أَرْبَعِينَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ، مِنْ خِيَارِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، مِنْهُمْ: الْحَارِثُ بْنُ الصِّمَّةِ، وَحَرَامُ بْنُ مِلْحَانَ أَخُو بَنِي عَدِيِّ بْنِ النَّجَّارِ، وَعُرْوَةُ بْنُ أَسْمَاءَ بْنِ الصَّلْتِ السُّلَمِيُّ، وَنَافِعُ بْنُ بُدَيْلِ بْنِ وَرْقَاءَ الْخُزَاعِيُّ، وَعَامِرُ بْنُ فُهَيْرَةَ مَوْلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ، فِي رِجَالٍ مُسَمَّيْنَ مِنْ خِيَارِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ. فَسَارُوا حَتَّى نَزَلُوا بِبِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ، وَهِيَ بَيْنَ أَرْضِ بَنِي عَامِرٍ وَحَرَّةِ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ، كِلَا الْبَلَدَيْنِ مِنْهَا قَرِيبٌ، وَهِيَ إلَى حَرَّةِ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ أَقْرَبُ.
Translation
✧ The account of Biʾr Maʿūnah in Safar of the year four [The dispatch to Biʾr Maʿūnah]. Ibn Isḥāq said: The Messenger of God ﷺ remained for the rest of Shawwāl, Dhū al-Qaʿdah, and Dhū al-Ḥijjah—the polytheists oversaw that pilgrimage—and al-Muḥarram. Then the Messenger of God ﷺ dispatched the companions of Biʾr Maʿūnah in Safar, at the beginning of the fourth month after Uḥud. [The reason for sending them] Their account, as my father Isḥāq b. Yasār narrated to me from al-Mughīrah b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. al-Ḥārith b. Hishām, and ʿAbd Allāh b. Abī Bakr b. Muḥammad b. ʿAmr b. Ḥazm, and others from the people of knowledge, they said: Abū Barāʾ ʿĀmir b. Mālik b. Jaʿfar, Mulaʿib al-Asinnah, came to the Messenger of God ﷺ in Madinah. The Messenger of God ﷺ presented Islam to him and called him to it, but he did not embrace Islam, yet he was not far from it. He said: O Muḥammad, if you were to send men from your companions to the people of Najd, to call them to your matter, I hope they would respond to you. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: I fear the people of Najd for them. Abū Barāʾ said: I am their protector, so send them to call the people to your matter. [The men of the dispatch] So the Messenger of God ﷺ sent al-Mundhir b. ʿAmr, the brother of the Banū Sāʿidah—the one who hastened to die—with forty men of his companions from the best of the Muslims. Among them were al-Ḥārith b. al-Ṣimmah, Ḥarām b. Milḥān the brother of the Banū ʿAdī b. al-Najjār, ʿUrwah b. Asmāʾ b. al-Ṣalt al-Sulamī, Nāfiʿ b. Budayl b. Warqāʾ al-Khuzāʿī, and ʿĀmir b. Fuhayrah the client of Abū Bakr al-Ṣiddīq, among named men from the best of the Muslims. They journeyed until they encamped at Biʾr Maʿūnah, which lies between the land of the Banū ʿĀmir and the Ḥarrah of the Banū Sulaym—both territories are close to it, though it is nearer to the Ḥarrah of the Banū Sulaym.
