Sirat Ibn Hisham 1266
The Messenger's departure
[ شِعْرٌ لِنَاجِيَةَ يُثْبِتُ أَنَّهُ حَامِلٌ سَهْمَ الرَّسُولِ ] وَقَدْ أَنْشَدَتْ أَسْلَمُ أَبْيَاتًا مِنْ شِعْرٍ قَالَهَا نَاجِيَةُ، قَدْ ظَنَنَّا أَنَّهُ هُوَ الَّذِي نَزَلَ بِالسَّهْمِ، فَزَعَمَتْ أَسْلَمُ أَنَّ جَارِيَةً مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ أَقْبَلَتْ بِدَلْوِهَا، وَنَاجِيَةُ فِي الْقَلِيبِ يَمِيحُ عَلَى النَّاسِ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا أَيُّهَا الْمَائِحُ دَلْوَى دُونَكَا إنِّي رَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يَحْمَدُونَكَا يُثْنُونَ خَيْرًا وَيُمَجِّدُونَكَا قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَيُرْوَى: إنِّي رَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يَمْدَحُونَكَا قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: فَقَالَ نَاجِيَةُ، وَهُوَ فِي الْقَلِيبِ يَمِيحُ عَلَى النَّاسِ: قَدْ عَلِمَتْ جَارِيَةٌ يَمَانِيَهْ أَنِّي أَنَا الْمَائِحُ وَاسْمِي نَاجِيَهْ وَطَعْنَةٍ ذَاتِ رَشَاشٍ وَاهِيَهْ طَعَنْتُهَا عِنْدَ صُدُورِ الْعَادِيَهْ
Translation
✧ [Poetry by Nājiyah, proving that he is the bearer of the arrow of the Messenger] Aslam recited some verses of poetry said by Nājiyah that we thought he was the one who descended with the arrow. Aslam claimed that a girl of the Anṣār came forward with her bucket while Nājiyah was in the well drawing water for the people, and she said: “O you who draws water, my bucket is near you; indeed I saw the people praising you, lauding you with good and glorifying you.” Ibn Hishām said: And it is also transmitted: “Indeed I saw the people extolling you.” Ibn Isḥāq said: Then Nājiyah said, while he was in the well drawing water for the people: “A Yemeni girl has known that I am the water-drawer, and my name is Nājiyah; and a thrust with splattering, gushing [wound]—I thrust it at the onset of the charging [horses].”
