[ مَا قِيلَ فِي بَنِي النَّضِيرِ مِنْ الشِّعْرِ ] وَكَانَ مِمَّا قِيلَ فِي بَنِي النَّضِيرِ مِنْ الشِّعْرِ قَوْلُ ابْنِ لُقَيْمٍ الْعَبْسِيِّ، وَيُقَالُ: قَالَهُ قَيْسُ بْنُ بَحْرِ بْنِ طَرِيفٍ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: قَيْسُ بْنُ بَحْرٍ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ - فَقَالَ: أَهْلِي فِدَاءٌ لِامْرِئٍ غَيْرِ هَالِكٍ أَحَلَّ الْيَهُودَ بِالْحَسِيِّ الْمُزَنَّمِ يَقِيلُونَ فِي جَمْرِ الغَضَاةِ وَبُدِّلُوا أُهَيْضِبُ عُودى بِالْوَدِيِّ الْمُكَمَّمِ فَإِنْ يَكُ ظَنِّيُّ صَادِقًا بِمُحَمَّدٍ تَرَوْا خَيْلَهُ بَيْنَ الصَّلَا وَيَرَمْرَمَ يَؤُمُّ بِهَا عَمْرَو بْنَ بُهْثَةَ إنَّهُمْ عَدْوٌّ وَمَا حَيٌّ صَدِيقٌ كَمُجْرِمِ عَلَيْهِنَّ أَبْطَالٌ مَسَاعِيرُ فِي الْوَغَى يَهُزُّونَ أَطْرَافَ الْوَشِيجِ الْمُقَوَّمِ وَكُلَّ رَقِيقِ الشَّفْرَتَيْنِ مُهَنَّدٌ تُوُورِثْنَ مِنْ أَزْمَانِ عَادٍ وَجُرْهُمِ فَمَنْ مُبْلِغٌ عَنِّي قُرَيْشًا رِسَالَةً فَهَلْ بَعْدَهُمْ فِي الْمَجْدِ مِنْ مُتَكَرِّمِ بِأَنَّ أَخَاكُمْ فَاعْلَمُنَّ مُحَمَّدًا تَلِيدُ النَّدَى بَيْنَ الْحَجُونِ وَزَمْزَمِ فَدِينُوا لَهُ بِالْحَقِّ تَجْسُمُ أُمُورُكُمْ وَتَسْمُوا مِنْ الدُّنْيَا إلَى كُلِّ مُعْظَمِ نَبِيٌّ تَلَاقَتْهُ مِنْ اللَّهِ رَحْمَةٌ وَلَا تَسْأَلُوهُ أَمْرَ غَيْبٍ مُرَجَّمِ فَقَدْ كَانَ فِي بَدْرٍ لَعَمْرِي عِبْرَةٌ إلَيْكُمْ يَا قُرَيْشًا وَالْقَلِيبِ الْمُلَمَّمِ غَدَاةَ أَتَى فِي الْخَزْرَجِيَّةِ عَامِدًا إلَيْكُمْ مُطِيعًا لِلْعَظِيمِ الْمُكَرَّمِ مُعَانًا بِرُوحِ الْقُدْسِ يُنْكَى عَدُوُّهُ رَسُولًا مِنْ الرَّحْمَنِ حَقًّا بِمَعْلَمِ رَسُولًا مِنْ الرَّحْمَنِ يَتْلُو كِتَابَهُ فَلَمَّا أَنَارَ الْحَقُّ لَمْ يَتَلَعْثَمْ أَرَى أَمْرَهُ يَزْدَادُ فِي كُلِّ مَوْطِنٍ عُلُوًّا لِأَمْرِ حَمَّهُ اللَّهُ مُحْكَمِ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: عَمْرُو بْنُ بُهْثَةَ، مِنْ غَطَفَانَ. وَقَوْلُهُ بِالْحَسِيِّ الْمُزَنَّمِ، عَنْ غَيْرِ ابْنِ إسْحَاقَ
Translation
✧ [What was said in poetry concerning Banu al-Nadir] Among what was said in poetry concerning Banu al-Nadir was the saying of Ibn Luqaym al-ʿAbsī — and it is also said that Qays b. Baḥr b. Ṭarīf said it. Ibn Hishām said: Qays b. Baḥr al-Ashjaʿī — and he said: My family be a ransom for a man not doomed, who settled the Jews at al-Ḥasiyy al-Muzannam. They take midday naps in the embers of al-Ghaḍāh, and they were replaced by Uhayḍib ʿŪdā with the muffled young palm shoots. If my suspicion about Muḥammad proves true, you will see his horses between al-Ṣalā and Yaramram. He aims with them at ʿAmr b. Buhthah; indeed they are an enemy, and no tribe is a friend like a guilty one. Upon them are heroes, kindlers of war’s blaze, shaking the tips of straightened spears, and every thin-bladed Indian sword, inherited from the ages of ʿĀd and Jurhum. Who will convey from me to Quraysh a message: is there after them in glory any generous one? That your brother — know it well — is Muḥammad, of ancient generosity between al-Ḥajūn and Zamzam. So submit to him in truth; your affairs will be set firm, and you will rise from this world to every greatness. A Prophet whom mercy from God overtook; do not ask him about a matter of the unseen that is conjectured. By my life, there was in Badr a lesson for you, O Quraysh, and the covered well, on the morning he came among the Khazrajīs, intending to you, obeying the Mighty, the Honored One, aided by the Holy Spirit; his enemy is wounded, a messenger from the Merciful, truly with a sign, a messenger from the Merciful, reciting His Book; and when the truth shone forth, he did not hesitate. I see his affair increasing in every place in loftiness, for an affair whose decree God made firm. Ibn Hishām said: ʿAmr b. Buhthah is from Ghaṭafān. And his saying “at al-Ḥasiyy al-Muzannam” is from other than Ibn Isḥāq.
