[ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ وَتَوْبَتُهُ يوم قريظة ] ( قَالَ ): ثُمَّ إنَّهُمْ بَعَثُوا إلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ: أَنْ ابْعَثْ إلَيْنَا أَبَا لُبَابَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُنْذِرِ، أَخَا بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عَوْفٍ، وَكَانُوا حُلَفَاءَ الْأَوْسِ، لِنَسْتَشِيرَهُ فِي أَمْرِنَا، فَأَرْسَلَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إلَيْهِمْ؛ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ قَامَ إلَيْهِ الرِّجَالُ، وَجَهَشَ إلَيْهِ النِّسَاءُ وَالصِّبْيَانُ يَبْكُونَ فِي وَجْهِهِ، فَرَقَّ لَهُمْ، وَقَالُوا لَهُ: يَا أَبَا لُبَابَةَ أَتَرَى أَنْ نَنْزِلَ عَلَى حُكْمِ مُحَمَّدٍ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إلَى حَلْقِهِ، إنَّهُ الذَّبْحُ. قَالَ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ: فَوَاَللَّهِ مَا زَالَتْ قَدَمَايَ مِنْ مَكَانِهِمَا حَتَّى عَرَفْتُ أَنِّي قَدْ خُنْتُ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ﷺ ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ وَلَمْ يَأْتِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى ارْتَبَطَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ إلَى عَمُودٍ مِنْ عُمُدِهِ، وَقَالَ: لَا أَبْرَحُ مَكَانِي هَذَا حَتَّى يَتُوبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيَّ مِمَّا صَنَعْتُ، وَعَاهَدَ اللَّهَ: أَنْ لَا أَطَأَ بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ أَبَدًا، وَلَا أُرَى فِي بَلَدٍ خُنْتُ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فِيهِ أَبَدًا
Translation
✧ [Abū Lubābah and his repentance on the day of Qurayẓah] He said: Then they sent to the Messenger of God ﷺ: Send to us Abū Lubābah b. ʿAbd al-Mundhir, the brother of the Banū ʿAmr b. ʿAwf—and they were allies of the Aws—so that we may consult him about our affair. So the Messenger of God ﷺ sent him to them. When they saw him, the men rose to him, and the women and children rushed to him weeping before his face. He felt compassion for them. They said to him: O Abū Lubābah, do you think we should submit to the judgment of Muḥammad? He said: Yes—and he pointed with his hand to his throat, that it is slaughter. Abū Lubābah said: By God, my feet had not left their place before I knew that I had betrayed God and His Messenger ﷺ. Then Abū Lubābah went off on his face, and he did not come to the Messenger of God ﷺ until he had bound himself in the mosque to one of its pillars, and he said: I shall not leave this place of mine until God relents toward me for what I did. And he made a covenant with God: that I shall never set foot among the Banū Qurayẓah ever, and that I shall never be seen in a land in which I betrayed God and His Messenger.
