Sirat Ibn Hisham 491
سَعْيُ الرَّسُولِ إلَى ثَقِيفٍ يَطْلُبُ النُّصْرَةَ قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَلَمَّا هَلَكَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ نَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ الْأَذَى مَا لَمْ تَكُنْ تَنَالُ مِنْهُ فِي حَيَاةِ عَمِّهِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إلَى الطَّائِفِ، يَلْتَمِسُ النُّصْرَةَ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ، وَالْمَنَعَةَ بِهِمْ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، وَرَجَاءَ أَنْ يَقْبَلُوا مِنْهُ مَا جَاءَهُمْ بِهِ مِنْ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، فَخَرَجَ إلَيْهِمْ وَحْدَهُ. [ نُزُولُ الرَّسُولِ بِثَلَاثَةِ مِنْ أَشْرَافِهِمْ، وَتَحْرِيضُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: فَحَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الْقُرَظِيِّ، قَالَ: لَمَّا انْتَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إلَى الطَّائِفِ، عَمَدَ إلَى نَفَرٍ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ، هُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ سَادَةُ ثَقِيفٍ وَأَشْرَافُهُمْ، وَهُمْ إخْوَةٌ ثَلَاثَةٌ: عَبْدُ يَالَيْلَ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، وَمَسْعُودُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، وَحَبِيبُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُمَيْرِ بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ عُقْدَةَ بْنِ غِيرَةَ بْنِ عَوْفِ بْنِ ثَقِيفٍ، وَعِنْدَ أَحَدِهِمْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ مِنْ بَنِي جُمَحٍ، فَجَلَسَ إلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَدَعَاهُمْ إلَى اللَّهِ، وَكَلَّمَهُمْ بِمَا جَاءَهُمْ لَهُ مِنْ نُصْرَتِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ، وَالْقِيَامِ مَعَهُ عَلَى مَنْ خَالَفَهُ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ؛ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَحَدُهُمْ: هُوَ يَمْرُطُ ثِيَابَ الْكَعْبَةِ إنْ كَانَ اللَّهُ أَرْسَلَكَ، وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ: أَمَا وَجَدَ اللَّهُ أَحَدًا يُرْسِلُهُ غَيْرَكَ وَقَالَ الثَّالِثُ: وَاَللَّهِ لَا أُكَلِّمُكَ أَبَدًا. لَئِنْ كُنْتَ رَسُولًا مِنْ اللَّهِ كَمَا تَقُولُ، لَأَنْتَ أَعْظَمُ خَطَرًا مِنْ أَنْ أَرُدَّ عَلَيْكَ الْكَلَامَ، وَلَئِنْ كُنْتَ تَكْذِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ، مَا يَنْبَغِي لِي أَنْ أُكَلِّمَكَ. فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ عِنْدِهِمْ وَقَدْ يَئِسَ مِنْ خَيْرِ ثَقِيفٍ، وَقَدْ قَالَ لَهُمْ - فِيمَا ذُكِرَ لِي -: إذَا فَعَلْتُمْ مَا فَعَلْتُمْ فَاكْتُمُوا عَنِّي، وَكَرِهَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَبْلُغَ قَوْمَهُ عَنْهُ فَيُذْئِرَهُمْ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: قَالَ عَبِيدُ بْنُ الْأَبْرَصِ:: وَلَقَدْ أَتَانِي عَنْ تَمِيمٍ أَنَّهُمْ ذَئِرُوا لِقَتْلَى عَامِرٍ وَتَعَصَّبُوا فَلَمْ يَفْعَلُوا، وَأَغْرَوْا بِهِ سُفَهَاءَهُمْ وَعَبِيدَهُمْ، يَسُبُّونَهُ وَيَصِيحُونَ بِهِ، حَتَّى اجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْهِ النَّاسُ، وَأَلْجَئُوهُ إلَى حَائِطٍ لِعُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ وَشَيْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، وَهُمَا فِيهِ، وَرَجَعَ عَنْهُ مِنْ سُفَهَاءِ ثَقِيفٍ مَنْ كَانَ يَتْبَعُهُ، فَعَمَدَ إلَى ظِلِّ حَبَلَةٍ مِنْ عِنَبٍ، فَجَلَسَ فِيهِ. وَابْنَا رَبِيعَةَ يَنْظُرَانِ إلَيْهِ، وَيَرَيَانِ مَا لَقِيَ مِنْ سُفَهَاءِ أَهْلِ الطَّائِفِ، وَقَدْ لَقِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ - فِيمَا ذُكِرَ لِي - الْمَرْأَةَ الَّتِي مِنْ بَنِي جُمَحٍ، فَقَالَ لَهَا: مَاذَا لَقِينَا مِنْ أَحْمَائِكَ ؟

✧ The Messenger's journey to Thaqīf seeking support. Ibn Isḥāq said: When Abū Ṭālib died, Quraysh inflicted on the Messenger of God ﷺ such harm as they had not been able to inflict on him during the lifetime of his uncle Abū Ṭālib. So the Messenger of God ﷺ went out to al-Ṭāʾif seeking support from Thaqīf and protection through them from his own people, hoping that they would accept from him what he had brought them from God, Mighty and Majestic. He went out to them alone. [The Messenger's alighting with three of their nobles, and their incitement against him] Ibn Isḥāq said: Yazīd b. Ziyād related to me, from Muḥammad b. Kaʿb al-Quraẓī, who said: When the Messenger of God ﷺ reached al-Ṭāʾif, he went to a group of Thaqīf, who were that day the leaders and nobles of Thaqīf. They were three brothers: ʿAbd Yālīl b. ʿAmr b. ʿUmayr, Masʿūd b. ʿAmr b. ʿUmayr, and Ḥabīb b. ʿAmr b. ʿUmayr b. ʿAwf b. ʿUqda b. Ghīra b. ʿAwf b. Thaqīf. With one of them was a woman of Quraysh from Banū Jumaḥ. The Messenger of God ﷺ sat with them and called them to God and spoke to them about what he had come to them for, of supporting him in Islam and standing with him against those of his people who opposed him. One of them said, 'He is stripping the coverings of the Kaʿba if God has sent you.' Another said, 'Did God not find anyone to send other than you?' The third said, 'By God, I will never speak to you. If you are a messenger from God as you say, you are of too great an importance for me to answer your speech; and if you are lying about God, it is not proper for me to speak to you.' The Messenger of God ﷺ rose from them, having despaired of any good from Thaqīf. He had said to them—as was mentioned to me—'If you have done what you have done, then keep it secret from me,' for the Messenger of God ﷺ disliked that his people should hear of it from them and be incited against him. Ibn Hishām said: ʿAbīd b. al-Abraṣ said: 'And there came to me from Tamīm that they were incited on account of the slain of ʿĀmir and grew fanatical.' They did not do so, but they incited their fools and their slaves against him, who reviled him and shouted at him, until people gathered around him and forced him into a garden belonging to ʿUtba b. Rabīʿa and Shayba b. Rabīʿa, who were in it. The fools of Thaqīf who had been following him turned back from him. He made for the shade of a vine trellis and sat in it. The two sons of Rabīʿa were looking at him and seeing what he had met with from the fools of the people of al-Ṭāʾif. The Messenger of God ﷺ had—as was mentioned to me—met the woman who was from Banū Jumaḥ and said to her, 'What things we have met with from your protégés!'
