Sirat Ibn Hisham 1576
The Prophet's reminder to his people of what happened to the disciples when they disagreed about Jesus
خُرُوجُ رُسُلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ إلَى الْمُلُوكِ [ تَذْكِيرُ الرَّسُولِ قَوْمَهُ بِمَا حَدَثَ لِلْحَوَارِيِّينَ حِينَ اخْتَلَفُوا عَلَى عِيسَى ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَعَثَ إلَى الْمُلُوكِ رُسُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ، وَكَتَبَ مَعَهُمْ إلَيْهِمْ يَدْعُوهُمْ إلَى الْإِسْلَامِ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ أَثِقُ بِهِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْهُذَلِيِّ قَالَ: بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ بَعْدَ عُمْرَتِهِ الَّتِي صُدَّ عَنْهَا يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ، فَقَالَ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ بَعَثَنِي رَحْمَةً وَكَافَّةً فَلَا تَخْتَلِفُوا عَلَيَّ كَمَا اخْتَلَفَ الْحَوَارِيُّونَ عَلَى عِيسَى بْنِ مَرْيَمَ؛ فَقَالَ أَصْحَابُهُ: وَكَيْفَ اخْتَلَفَ الْحَوَارِيُّونَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ: دَعَاهُمْ إلَى الَّذِي دَعَوْتُكُمْ إلَيْهِ، فَأَمَّا مِنْ بَعَثَهُ مَبْعَثًا قَرِيبًا فَرَضِيَ وَسَلِمَ، وَأَمَّا مَنْ بَعَثَهُ مَبْعَثًا بَعِيدًا فَكَرِهَ وَجْهُهُ وَتَثَاقَلَ، فَشَكَا ذَلِكَ عِيسَى إلَى اللَّهِ، فَأَصْبَحَ الْمُتَثَاقِلُونَ وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِلُغَةِ الْأُمَّةِ الَّتِي بُعِثَ إلَيْهَا
Translation
✧ The departure of the Messenger of Allah's envoys to the kings [The Messenger's reminder to his people of what happened to the disciples when they differed over Jesus] Ibn Hisham said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had indeed sent envoys to the kings from among his companions, and wrote with them to them, calling them to Islam. Ibn Hisham said: Someone I trust narrated to me from Abu Bakr al-Hudhali, who said: It reached me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to his companions one day after his ʿumrah from which he was turned back on the day of al-Hudaybiyah, and said: O people, Allah has sent me as a mercy to all, so do not differ over me as the disciples differed over Jesus son of Mary. His companions said: How did the disciples differ, O Messenger of Allah? He said: He called them to what I have called you to. As for the one whom he sent to a nearby place, he was pleased and safe; but as for the one whom he sent to a distant place, his face showed dislike and he was sluggish. Jesus complained of that to Allah, and in the morning the sluggish ones, each one of them, spoke the language of the nation to which he had been sent.
