The Messenger was the first to shoot with a mangonel
[ عُيَيْنَةُ وَمَا كَانَ يُخْفِي مِنْ نِيَّتِهِ ] فَلَمَّا اسْتَقَلَّ النَّاسُ نَادَى سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ أُسَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرِو بْنِ عِلَاجٍ: أَلَا إنَّ الْحَيَّ مُقِيمٌ. قَالَ: يَقُولُ عُيَيْنَةُ بْنُ حِصْنٍ: أَجَلْ، وَاَللَّهِ مَجَدَةً كِرَامًا؛ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ: قَاتَلَكَ اللَّهُ يَا عُيَيْنَةُ، أَتَمْدَحُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِالِامْتِنَاعِ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَقَدْ جِئْتُ تَنْصُرُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: إنِّي وَاَللَّهِ مَا جِئْتُ لِأُقَاتِلَ ثَقِيفًا مَعَكُمْ، وَلَكِنِّي أَرَدْتُ أَنْ يَفْتَحَ مُحَمَّدٌ الطَّائِفَ فَأُصِيبَ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ جَارِيَةً أَتَّطِئُهَا لَعَلَّهَا تَلِدُ لِي رَجُلًا، فَإِنَّ ثَقِيفًا قَوْمٌ مَنَاكِيرُ. وَنَزَلَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي إقَامَتِهِ مِمَّنْ كَانَ مُحَاصَرًا بِالطَّائِفِ عَبِيدٌ، فَأَسْلَمُوا، فَأَعْتَقَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ. [ عُتَقَاءُ ثَقِيفٍ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي مَنْ لَا أَتَّهِمُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُكَدَّمٍ، عَنْ رِجَالٍ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ، قَالُوا: لَمَّا أَسْلَمَ أَهْلُ الطَّائِفِ تَكَلَّمَ نَفَرٌ مِنْهُمْ فِي أُولَئِكَ الْعَبِيدِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: لَا، أُولَئِكَ عُتَقَاءُ اللَّهِ، وَكَانَ مِمَّنْ تَكَلَّمَ فِيهِمْ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ كَلَدَةَ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَقَدْ سَمَّى ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ مَنْ نَزَلَ مِنْ أُولَئِكَ الْعَبِيدِ
Translation
✧ [ʿUyaynah and what he concealed of his intention] When the people set out, Saʿīd b. ʿUbayd b. Usayd b. Abī ʿAmr b. ʿIlāj called out: “Indeed, the tribe is staying.” He said: ʿUyaynah b. Ḥiṣn said: “Yes, by God, a noble and generous glory.” A Muslim man said to him: “May God fight you, O ʿUyaynah! You praise the polytheists for holding out against the Messenger of God ﷺ, when you have come to support the Messenger of God ﷺ?” He said: “By God, I did not come to fight Thaqīf alongside you, but I wanted Muḥammad to conquer al-Ṭāʾif so that I might obtain a slave-girl from Thaqīf and lie with her, in the hope that she would bear me a man, for Thaqīf are a people of hard lineage.” Some slaves who had been besieged in al-Ṭāʾif came down to the Messenger of God ﷺ while he was encamped there, and they became Muslims, and the Messenger of God ﷺ set them free. [The freedmen of Thaqīf] Ibn Isḥāq said: One whom I do not suspect narrated to me, from ʿAbd Allāh b. Mukaddam, from men of Thaqīf, who said: When the people of al-Ṭāʾif embraced Islam, a number of them spoke about those slaves, and the Messenger of God ﷺ said: “No, they are the freedmen of God.” Among those who spoke about them was al-Ḥārith b. Kaladah. Ibn Hishām said: Ibn Isḥāq named those of the slaves who came down.
