Sirat Ibn Hisham 1129
The Muslims' recitation of rajaz verses during the digging of the trench
[ ارْتِجَازُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فِي حَفْرِ الْخَنْدَقِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَعَمِلَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فِيهِ حَتَّى أَحْكَمُوهُ، وَارْتَجَزُوا فِيهِ بِرَجُلِ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، يُقَالُ لَهُ جُعَيْلٌ، سَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: عَمْرًا، فَقَالُوا: سَمَّاهُ مِنْ بَعْدِ جُعَيْلٍ عَمْرَا وَكَانَ لِلْبَائِسِ يَوْمًا ظَهْرَا فَإِذَا مَرُّوا بِعَمْرٍو قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: عَمْرًا، وَإِذَا مَرُّوا بِظَهْرٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: ظَهْرًا
Translation
✧ The Muslims’ chanting of rajaz verses while digging the trench. Ibn Isḥāq said: The Muslims worked on it until they had made it secure, and they chanted rajaz verses about a man of the Muslims called Juʿayl, whom the Messenger of God ﷺ named ʿAmr. They said: “He named him after Juʿayl ʿAmrā; and he was for the wretched one day a support.” When they came to “ʿAmrā,” the Messenger of God ﷺ said, “ʿAmrā,” and when they came to “a support,” the Messenger of God ﷺ said, “a support.”
