Ibn Jahsh's Hope for Reward and What Was Revealed Concerning That
[ شِعْرٌ فِي هَذِهِ السَّرِيَّةِ يُنْسَبُ إلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَإِلَى ابْنِ جَحْشٍ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ ؓ فِي غَزْوَةِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَحْشٍ، وَيُقَالُ: بَلْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَحْشٍ قَالَهَا، حِينَ قَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ: قَدْ أَحَلَّ مُحَمَّدٌ وَأَصْحَابُهُ الشَّهْرَ الْحَرَامَ، وَسَفَكُوا فِيهِ الدَّمَ وَأَخَذُوا فِيهِ الْمَالَ، وَأَسَرُوا فِيهِ الرِّجَالَ - قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: هِيَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَحْشٍ:: تَعُدُّونَ قَتْلًا فِي الْحَرَامِ عَظِيمَةً وَأَعْظَمُ مِنْهُ لَوْ يَرَى الرُّشْدَ رَاشِدُ صُدُودُكُمْ عَمَّا يَقُولُ مُحَمَّدٌ وَكُفْرٌ بِهِ وَاَللَّهُ رَاءٍ وَشَاهِدُ وَإِخْرَاجُكُمْ مِنْ مَسْجِدِ اللَّهِ أَهْلَهُ لِئَلَّا يُرَى لِلَّهِ فِي الْبَيْتِ سَاجِدُ فَإِنَّا وَإِنْ عَيَّرْتُمُونَا بِقَتْلِهِ وَأَرْجَفَ بِالْإِسْلَامِ بَاغٍ وَحَاسِدُ سَقَيْنَا مِنْ ابْنِ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ رِمَاحَنَا بِنَخْلَةَ لَمَّا أَوْقَدَ الْحَرْبَ وَاقِدُ دَمًا وَابْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عُثْمَانُ بَيْنَنَا يُنَازِعُهُ غُلٌّ مِنْ الْقَدِّ عَانِدُ صَرْفُ الْقِبْلَةِ إلَى الْكَعْبَةِ قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَيُقَالُ: صُرِفَتْ الْقِبْلَةُ فِي شَعْبَانَ عَلَى رَأْسِ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا مِنْ مَقْدَمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ
Translation
✧ [Poetry concerning this expedition attributed to Abū Bakr and to Ibn Jaḥsh] Ibn Isḥāq said: Abū Bakr al-Ṣiddīq ؓ said, concerning the raid of ʿAbd Allāh b. Jaḥsh—and it is said: rather ʿAbd Allāh b. Jaḥsh said it—when Quraysh said: Muḥammad and his companions have made the sacred month lawful, and shed blood therein, and taken property therein, and captured men therein. Ibn Hishām said: It is by ʿAbd Allāh b. Jaḥsh: You count a killing in the sacred month as a great matter, but greater than it, if one seeking guidance could see guidance, is your turning away from what Muḥammad says and disbelief in him, while God is seeing and witnessing, And your expulsion of the people of God's mosque from it, lest any prostrating one be seen for God in the House. For we, even if you reproach us for killing him, and a wicked and envious one spreads false rumors about Islam, We gave the son of al-Ḥaḍramī to drink from our spears at Nakhla, when the kindler of war kindled it, Blood, while Ibn ʿAbd Allāh ʿUthmān is among us, contested by a stubborn shackle of thongs. The turning of the qibla to the Kaʿba Ibn Isḥāq said: It is said the qibla was turned in Shaʿbān, at the end of eighteen months from the arrival of the Messenger of God ﷺ in Madinah
