[ جُرْهُمٌ وَقَطُورَاءُ وَمَا كَانَ بَيْنَهُمَا ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَيُقَالُ: مُضَاضُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الْجُرْهُمِيُّ. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَبَنُو إسْمَاعِيلَ وَبَنُو نَابِتٍ مَعَ جَدِّهِمْ مُضَاضِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو وَأَخْوَالِهِمْ مِنْ جُرْهُمٍ. وَجُرْهُمٌ وَقَطُورَاءُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ، وَهُمَا ابْنَا عَمٍّ. وَكَانَا ظَعَنَا مِنْ الْيَمَنِ، فَأَقْبَلَا سَيَّارَةً، وَعَلَى جُرْهُمٍ مُضَاضُ بْنُ عَمْرِو، وَعَلَى قَطُورَاءَ السَّمَيْدَعُ، رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ. وَكَانُوا إذَا خَرَجُوا مِنْ الْيَمَنِ لَمْ يَخْرُجُوا إلَّا وَلَهُمْ مَلِكٌ يُقِيمُ أَمْرَهُمْ. فَلَمَّا نَزَلَا مَكَّةَ رَأَيَا بَلَدًا ذَا مَاءٍ وَشَجَرٍ، فَأَعْجَبَهُمَا فَنَزَلَا بِهِ. فَنَزَلَ مُضَاضُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو بِمَنْ مَعَهُ مِنْ جُرْهُمٍ بِأَعْلَى مَكَّةَ بِقُعَيْقِعَانَ فَمَا حَازَ. وَنَزَلَ السَّمَيْدَعُ بِقَطُورَاءَ. أَسْفَلَ مَكَّةَ بِأَجْيَادِ فَمَا حَازَ. فَكَانَ مُضَاضٌ يَعْشُرُ مَنْ دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ مِنْ أَعْلَاهَا، وَكَانَ السَّمَيْدَعُ يَعْشُرُ مَنْ دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ مِنْ أَسْفَلِهَا، وَكُلٌّ فِي قَوْمِهِ لَا يَدْخُلُ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمَا عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ. ثُمَّ إنَّ جُرْهُمَ وَقَطُورَاءَ، بَغَى بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ، وَتَنَافَسُوا الْمُلْكَ بِهَا، وَمَعَ مُضَاضٍ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَنُو إسْمَاعِيلَ وَبَنُو نَابِتٍ: وَإِلَيْهِ وِلَايَةُ الْبَيْتِ دُونَ السَّمَيْدَعِ. فَسَارَ بَعْضُهُمْ إلَى بَعْضٍ، فَخَرَجَ مُضَاضُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو مِنْ قُعَيْقِعَانَ فِي كَتِيبَتِهِ سَائِرًا إلَى السَّمَيْدَعِ، وَمَعَ كَتِيبَتِهِ عُدَّتُهَا مِنْ الرِّمَاحِ وَالدَّرَقِ وَالسُّيُوفِ وَالْجِعَابِ، يُقَعْقِعُ بِذَلِكَ مَعَهُ، فَيُقَالُ: مَا سُمِّيَ قُعَيْقِعَانُ بِقُعَيْقِعَانَ إلَّا لِذَلِكَ. وَخَرَجَ السَّمَيْدَعُ مِنْ أَجْيَادٍ وَمَعَهُ الْخَيْلُ وَالرِّجَالُ، فَيُقَالُ: مَا سُمِّيَ أَجْيَادٌ أَجِيَادًا إلَّا لِخُرُوجِ الْجِيَادِ مِنْ الْخَيْلِ مَعَ السَّمَيْدَعِ مِنْهُ. فَالْتَقَوْا بِفَاضِحٍ، وَاقْتَتَلُوا قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا، فَقُتِلَ السَّمَيْدَعُ، وَفُضِحَتْ قَطُورَاءُ. فَيُقَالُ: مَا سُمِّيَ فَاضِحٌ فَاضِحًا إلَّا لِذَلِكَ. ثُمَّ إنَّ الْقَوْمَ تَدَاعَوْا إلَى الصُّلْحِ، فَسَارُوا حَتَّى نَزَلُوا الْمَطَابِخَ: شِعْبًا بِأَعْلَى مَكَّةَ، وَاصْطَلَحُوا بِهِ، وَأَسْلَمُوا الْأَمْرَ إلَى مُضَاضٍ. فَلَمَّا جُمِعَ إلَيْهِ أَمْرُ مَكَّةَ فَصَارَ مُلْكُهَا لَهُ، نَحَرَ لِلنَّاسِ فَأَطْعَمَهُمْ، فَاطَّبَخَ النَّاسُ وَأَكَلُوا، فَيُقَالُ: مَا سُمِّيَتْ الْمَطَابِخُ الْمَطَابِخَ إلَّا لِذَلِكَ. وَبَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهَا إنَّمَا سُمِّيَتْ الْمَطَابِخَ، لَمَّا كَانَ تُبَّعٌ نَحَرَ بِهَا وَأَطْعَمَ، وَكَانَتْ مَنْزِلَهُ. فَكَانَ الَّذِي كَانَ بَيْنَ مُضَاضٍ وَالسَّمَيْدَعِ أَوَّلَ بَغْيٍ كَانَ بِمَكَّةَ فِيمَا يَزْعُمُونَ
Translation
✧ [JURHUM AND QATURA AND WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THEM] Ibn Hisham said: It is also said: Mudad b. ʿAmr al-Jurhumi. Ibn Ishaq said: The Banu Ismaʿil and the Banu Nabit were with their grandfather Mudad b. ʿAmr and their maternal uncles from Jurhum. Jurhum and Qatura were at that time the people of Makkah, and they were two cousins. They had departed from Yemen as a traveling group, with Mudad b. ʿAmr in charge of Jurhum and al-Samaydaʿ, a man of theirs, in charge of Qatura. Whenever they set out from Yemen they would only do so with a king to manage their affairs. When they halted at Makkah they saw a land with water and trees, and it pleased them, so they settled there. Mudad b. ʿAmr settled with those of Jurhum who were with him in upper Makkah at Quʿayqiʿan and what it enclosed. Al-Samaydaʿ settled with Qatura in lower Makkah at Ajyad and what it enclosed. Mudad used to tithe whoever entered Makkah from its upper side, and al-Samaydaʿ used to tithe whoever entered Makkah from its lower side, each among his own people, neither of them encroaching on the other. Then Jurhum and Qatura, some of them treated others unjustly, and they competed for kingship there. At that time the Banu Ismaʿil and the Banu Nabit were with Mudad, and to him belonged the guardianship of the House rather than to al-Samaydaʿ. They marched against one another: Mudad b. ʿAmr went out from Quʿayqiʿan in his battalion advancing toward al-Samaydaʿ, and with his battalion was its equipment of spears, shields, swords, and quivers, clattering with that as he went, and it is said that Quʿayqiʿan was only named Quʿayqiʿan because of that. Al-Samaydaʿ went out from Ajyad with horses and men, and it is said that Ajyad was only named Ajyad because of the noble steeds among the horses going out with al-Samaydaʿ from there. They met at Fadih and fought a fierce battle, and al-Samaydaʿ was killed and Qatura was put to shame. It is said that Fadih was only named Fadih because of that. Then the people called one another to peace, and they traveled until they halted at al-Matabikh, a mountain pass in upper Makkah, and made peace there and surrendered authority to Mudad. When the affair of Makkah was gathered to him and its kingship became his, he slaughtered camels for the people and fed them, and the people cooked and ate. It is said that al-Matabikh was only named al-Matabikh because of that. Some people of knowledge claim that it was only named al-Matabikh because Tubbaʿ had slaughtered camels there and fed people, and it was his dwelling. So what happened between Mudad and al-Samaydaʿ was the first injustice that occurred in Makkah, as they claim.
