The appointment of b. Umm Maktūm over Madinah
[ اسْتِعْمَالُ ابْنِ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ يوم قريظة ] وَاسْتَعْمَلَ عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ ابْنَ أُمِّ مَكْتُومٍ، فِيمَا قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ. [ تَقَدُّمُ عَلِيٍّ وَتَبْلِيغُهُ الرَّسُولَ مَا سَمِعَهُ مِنْ سُفَهَائِهِمْ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ بِرَايَتِهِ إلَى بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ، وَابْتَدَرَهَا النَّاسُ. فَسَارَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، حَتَّى إذَا دَنَا مِنْ الْحُصُونِ سَمِعَ مِنْهَا مَقَالَةً قَبِيحَةً لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَرَجَعَ حَتَّى لَقِيَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالطَّرِيقِ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، لَا عَلَيْكَ أَنْ لَا تَدْنُوَ مِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ الْأَخَابِثِ؛ قَالَ: لِمَ ؟ أَظُنُّكَ سَمِعْتُ مِنْهُمْ لِي أَذًى ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: لَوْ رَأَوْنِي لَمْ يَقُولُوا مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا. فَلَمَّا دَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ حُصُونِهِمْ. قَالَ: يَا إخْوَانَ الْقِرَدَةِ، هَلْ أَخْزَاكُمْ اللَّهُ وَأَنْزَلَ بِكُمْ نِقْمَتَهُ ؟ قَالُوا: يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ، مَا كُنْتُ جَهُولًا
Translation
✧ [The appointment of Ibn Umm Maktūm over Madinah on the day of Qurayẓah] He appointed Ibn Umm Maktūm over Madinah, according to what Ibn Hishām said. [The advance of ʿAlī and his conveying to the Messenger what he heard of their foolish talk] Ibn Isḥāq said: The Messenger of God ﷺ sent ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib ahead with his banner to Banū Qurayẓah, and the people hastened to it. ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib marched until, when he drew near the fortresses, he heard from them ugly speech about the Messenger of God ﷺ. He returned until he met the Messenger of God ﷺ on the road and said: O Messenger of God, do not trouble yourself to approach these vile ones. He said: Why? I suppose you heard from them something hurtful to me? He said: Yes, O Messenger of God. He said: Had they seen me, they would not have said any of that. When the Messenger of God ﷺ drew near their fortresses, he said: O brothers of apes, has God disgraced you and brought down His vengeance upon you? They said: O Abū al-Qāsim, you were never ignorant.
