Sirat Ibn Hisham 775
What befell Zaynab from Quraysh upon her departure and Abū Sufyān's counsel
[ شِعْرُ هِنْدٍ وَكِنَانَةُ فِي خُرُوجِ زَيْنَبَ ] وَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ الَّذِينَ خَرَجُوا إلَى زَيْنَبَ لَقِيَتْهُمْ هِنْدُ بِنْتُ عُتْبَةَ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُمْ:: أَفِي السِّلْمِ أَعْيَارٌ جَفَاءً وَغِلْظَةً وَفِي الْحَرْبِ أَشْبَاهُ النِّسَاءِ الْعَوَارِكِ وَقَالَ كِنَانَةُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ فِي أَمْرِ زَيْنَبَ، حِينَ دَفَعَهَا إلَى الرَّجُلَيْنِ:: عَجِبْتُ لِهَبَّارٍ وَأَوْبَاشِ قَوْمِهِ يُرِيدُونَ إخْفَارِي بِبِنْتِ مُحَمَّدِ وَلَسْتُ أُبَالِي مَا حَيِيتُ عَدِيدَهُمْ وَمَا اسْتَجْمَعْتُ قَبْضًا يَدِي بِالْمُهَنَّدِ
Translation
✧ [Poetry of Hind and Kinānah concerning the departure of Zaynab] And when those who had gone out to Zaynab turned back, Hind bt. ʿUtbah met them and said to them: "In peace are you wild asses, coarse and rough, and in war like menstruating women?" And Kinānah b. al-Rabīʿ said concerning the matter of Zaynab, when he handed her over to the two men: "I marvel at Habbār and the rabble of his people, seeking to break my protection of the daughter of Muḥammad. I care not, as long as I live, for their number, nor when my hand grips the hilt of the Indian sword."
