Sirat Ibn Hisham 390
[ تَوَلِّيهِ الْمُلْكَ بِرِضَا الْحَبَشَةِ ] فَلَمَّا ضَاقَ عَلَيْهِمْ مَا هُمْ فِيهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضِ: تَعْلَمُوا وَاَللَّهِ أَنَّ مَلِكَكُمْ الَّذِي لَا يُقِيمُ أَمْرَكُمْ غَيْرُهُ لَلَّذِي بِعْتُمْ غَدْوَةً، فَإِنْ كَانَ لَكُمْ بِأَمْرِ الْحَبَشَةِ حَاجَةٌ فَأَدْرِكُوهُ ( الْآنَ ). قَالَتْ: فَخَرَجُوا فِي طَلَبِهِ، وَطَلَبِ الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي بَاعُوهُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى أَدْرَكُوهُ، فَأَخَذُوهُ مِنْهُ، ثُمَّ جَاءُوا بِهِ، فَعَقَدُوا عَلَيْهِ التَّاجَ، وَأَقْعَدُوهُ عَلَى سَرِيرِ الْمُلْكِ، فَمَلَّكُوهُ
Translation
✧ [His assuming the kingship with the consent of the Abyssinians] When what they were in became unbearable for them, some of them said to others: “By God, you know that your king, without whom your affairs cannot be set right, is the very one you sold this morning. So if you have any need of the Abyssinians, catch up with him now.” She said: So they went out in search of him and of the man to whom they had sold him until they caught up with him. They took him back from him, then brought him and placed the crown upon him and seated him on the royal throne, and made him king.
