Sirat Ibn Hisham 398
[ ذِكْرُ قُوَّةِ عُمَرَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَجَلَدِهِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: لَمَّا أَسْلَمَ أَبِي عُمَرُ قَالَ: أَيُّ قُرَيْشٍ أَنْقَلُ لِلْحَدِيثِ ؟ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: جَمِيلُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ الْجُمَحِيُّ. قَالَ: فَغَدَا عَلَيْهِ. قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ: فَغَدَوْتُ أَتْبَعُ أَثَرَهُ، وَأَنْظُرُ مَا يَفْعَلُ، وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ أَعْقِلُ كُلَّ مَا رَأَيْتُ، حَتَّى جَاءَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: أَعَلِمْتَ يَا جَمِيلُ أَنِّي قَدْ أَسْلَمْتُ: وَدَخَلْتُ فِي دِينِ مُحَمَّدٍ ؟ قَالَ: فَوَاَللَّهِ مَا رَاجَعَهُ حَتَّى قَامَ يَجُرُّ رِدَاءَهُ وَاتَّبَعَهُ عُمَرُ، وَاتَّبَعْتُ أَبِي، حَتَّى إذَا قَامَ عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ صَرَخَ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِهِ: يَا مَعْشَرَ قُرَيْشٍ، وَهُمْ فِي أَنْدِيَتِهِمْ حَوْلَ الْكَعْبَةِ، أَلَا إنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ قَدْ صَبَأَ. قَالَ: ( و ) يَقُولُ عُمَرُ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ: كَذَبَ، وَلَكِنِّي قَدْ أَسْلَمْتُ، وَشَهِدْتُ أَنْ لَا إلَهَ إلَّا اللَّهُ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ. وَثَارُوا إلَيْهِ، فَمَا بَرِحَ يُقَاتِلُهُمْ وَيُقَاتِلُونَهُ حَتَّى قَامَتْ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمْ. قَالَ: وَطَلِحَ، فَقَعَدَ وَقَامُوا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: افْعَلُوا مَا بَدَا لَكُمْ، فَأَحْلِفُ بِاَللَّهِ أَنْ لَوْ قَدْ كُنَّا ثَلَاثَ ماِئَةِ رَجُلٍ ( لَقَدْ ) تَرَكْنَاهَا لَكُمْ، أَوْ تَرَكْتُمُوهَا لَنَا، قَالَ: فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، إذْ أَقْبَلَ شَيْخٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، عَلَيْهِ حُلَّةٌ حِبْرَةٌ، وَقَمِيصٌ مُوَشًّى، حَتَّى وَقَفَ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَقَالَ: مَا شَأْنُكُمْ ؟ قَالُوا: صَبَا عُمَرُ، فَقَالَ: فَمَهْ، رَجُلٌ اخْتَارَ لِنَفْسِهِ أَمْرًا فَمَاذَا تُرِيدُونَ ؟ أَتَرَوْنَ بَنِي عَدِيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ يُسْلِمُونَ لَكُمْ صَاحِبَهُمْ هَكَذَا خَلُّوا عَنْ الرَّجُلِ. قَالَ: فَوَاَللَّهِ لَكَأَنَّمَا كَانُوا ثَوْبًا كُشِطَ عَنْهُ. قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي بَعْدَ أَنْ هَاجَرَ إلَى الْمَدِينَةِ: يَا أَبَتْ، مَنْ الرَّجُلُ: الَّذِي زَجَرَ الْقَوْمَ عَنْكَ بِمَكَّةَ يَوْمَ أَسْلَمْتُ، وَهُمْ يُقَاتِلُونَكَ ؟ فَقَالَ: ذَاكَ، أَيْ بُنَيَّ، الْعَاصِ بْنُ وَائِلٍ السَّهْمِيُّ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَحَدَّثَنِي بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: يَا أَبَتْ، مَنْ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي زَجَرَ الْقَوْمَ عَنْكَ ( بِمَكَّةَ ) يَوْمَ أَسْلَمْتَ، وَهُمْ يُقَاتِلُونَكَ، جَزَاهُ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا. قَالَ: يَا بُنَيَّ، ذَاكَ الْعَاصِ بْنُ وَائِلٍ، لَا جَزَاهُ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ بَعْضِ آلِ عُمَرَ، أَوْ بَعْضِ أَهْلِهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ: لَمَّا أَسْلَمْتُ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ، تَذَكَّرْتُ أَيَّ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ أَشَدُّ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَدَاوَةً حَتَّى آتِيَهُ فَأُخْبِرَهُ أَنِّي قَدْ أَسْلَمْتُ؛ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: أَبُو جَهْلٍ - وَكَانَ عُمَرُ لِحَنْتَمَةَ بِنْتِ هِشَامِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ - قَالَ: فَأَقْبَلْتُ حِينَ أَصْبَحْتُ حَتَّى ضَرَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ بَابَهُ. قَالَ: فَخَرَجَ إلَيَّ أَبُو جَهْلٍ، فَقَالَ: مَرْحَبًا وَأَهْلًا بِابْنِ أُخْتِي، مَا جَاءَ بِكَ ؟ قَالَ: جِئْتُ لِأُخْبِرَكَ أَنِّي قَدْ آمَنْتُ بِاَللَّهِ وَبِرَسُولِهِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَصَدَّقْتُ بِمَا جَاءَ بِهِ؛ قَالَ: فَضَرَبَ الْبَابَ فِي وَجْهِي وَقَالَ: قَبَّحَكَ اللَّهُ، وَقَبَّحَ مَا جِئْتَ بِهِ

✧ [Mention of ʿUmar's strength in Islam and his fortitude] Ibn Isḥāq said: Nāfiʿ, the mawlā of ʿAbd Allāh b. ʿUmar, related to me from Ibn ʿUmar, who said: When my father ʿUmar accepted Islam, he said: "Which man of Quraysh is the best transmitter of news?" It was said to him: "Jamīl b. Maʿmar al-Jumaḥī." He said: So he went to him in the morning. ʿAbd Allāh b. ʿUmar said: I went out in the morning following his trail, observing what he would do, while I was a boy who understood everything I saw, until he came to him and said to him: "Do you know, O Jamīl, that I have accepted Islam and entered the religion of Muḥammad?" He said: By God, he did not answer him until he rose, dragging his cloak, and ʿUmar followed him, and I followed my father, until when he stood at the gate of the mosque he cried out at the top of his voice: "O assembly of Quraysh!" while they were in their gatherings around the Kaʿbah, "Indeed ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb has apostatized." He said: And ʿUmar said from behind him: "He lies, but I have accepted Islam, and I bear witness that there is no god but God, and that Muḥammad is His servant and Messenger." And they rose against him, and he did not cease fighting them and they fighting him until the sun stood over their heads. He said: And he became exhausted, so he sat down, and they stood over his head while he said: "Do what seems fit to you, for I swear by God that if we were three hundred men, we would have left it to you, or you would have left it to us." He said: While they were in that state, there came forward an old man of Quraysh, wearing a striped ḥullah and an embroidered shirt, until he stopped over them and said: "What is the matter with you?" They said: "ʿUmar has apostatized." He said: "So what? A man has chosen something for himself; what do you want? Do you think the Banū ʿAdī b. Kaʿb will hand over their companion to you like this? Leave the man alone." He said: By God, it was as if they had been a garment stripped away from him. He said: I said to my father after he had emigrated to Madinah: "O father, who was the man who rebuked the people away from you in Makkah on the day I accepted Islam, while they were fighting you?" He said: "That, my son, was al-ʿĀṣ b. Wāʾil al-Sahmī." Ibn Hishām said: Some of the people of knowledge related to me that he said: "O father, who was the man who rebuked the people away from you in Makkah on the day you accepted Islam, while they were fighting you? May God reward him well." He said: "My son, that was al-ʿĀṣ b. Wāʾil; may God not reward him well." Ibn Isḥāq said: ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. al-Ḥārith related to me from some of the family of ʿUmar, or some of his household, who said: ʿUmar said: When I accepted Islam that night, I thought about which of the people of Makkah was the most hostile to the Messenger of God ﷺ, so that I might go to him and tell him that I had accepted Islam. He said: I said: Abū Jahl—and ʿUmar was married to Ḥantamah bt. Hishām b. al-Mughīrah—he said: So I set out when morning came, until I knocked on his door. He said: Abū Jahl came out to me and said: "Welcome and greetings to my sister's son; what has brought you?" I said: "I have come to inform you that I have believed in God and in His Messenger Muḥammad, and I have affirmed what he has brought." He said: So he slammed the door in my face and said: "May God make you ugly, and ugly what you have brought."
